ubergizmo‘s review Edit Like Unlike

Windows Mobile 6.5's new user interface is way better than before and the HTC Pure is a stylish and overall efficient device, except for typing. Just like the iPhone, this smartphone is better suited for people who mainly browse the Internet, snap pictures, read emails *only* and update quickly their Facebook status; Twitter is a great application to use with the device since tweets are limited to 140 caracters

I have the feeling that HTC Pure is in fact a pretty decent device spoiled by the software it embeds. Windows Mobile 6.5 handsets are way more difficult to handle than Android-based ones. The difference is huge in performance as well. A high number of freezes and lags turned a smooth experience into a nightmare. I am aware that the device is a mid-budget smartphone with a certain target, but it has some drawbacks that can make even the simplest of users dislike it. If I were to choose between HTC Touch Diamond2 and its Pure clone, I would definitely pick the former.

The smartphone space is perhaps one of the fastest evolving in tech right now, and the different landscape in which the AT&T Pure finds itself compared to its Diamond2 sibling is a good example of that. Rival handsets such as the HTC Hero and the iPhone 3GS outclass the Pure’s resistive touchscreen, occasionally laggy keyboard and half-hearted PMP functionality, while the Verizon HTC Imagio offers a bigger display and a standard 3.5mm jack.

The Pure has entertainment and makes business on the go simple. The phone is easy to figure out thanks to the Windows 6.5 format, and items like Java support, video streaming and music sync help the phone keep the format familiar and menus are easy to navigate. A bit more memory, a better keypad solution and a headset jack would improve the phone, but it's a good pick for people that like to take all the best of their office and desktop entertainment on the run.

The AT&T Pure is this carrier's version of the HTC Touch Diamond2 - one of the premier touchscreen-oriented Windows phones on the market today. It has a WVGA display, mobile broadband, Wi-Fi, GPS, and much more.

The HTC Pure for AT&T was one of the very first Windows Mobile 6.5 smartphones to hit the market. It features a nice 5mp camera and a sleek design, along with a high-res touchscreen display.

PC Magazine‘s review Edit Like Unlike

The new HTC Pure is the latest in touch screen Windows phones, a business-centric crowd pleaser for folks who feel the iPhone's visceral appeal, but want to stay within the cozy embrace of the Microsoft ecosystem. It makes some major missteps with music and video playback, but it's a strong choice for making calls, reading e-mails, surfing the Web, and syncing with Outlook.

The HTC Pure offers AT&T customers an affordable touch-screen smartphone that showcases a more intuitive Windows Mobile operating system and strikes a nice balance between work and play. That said, those looking for a handset that excels in multimedia and Web browsing should stick with the iPhone.

With Verizon Wireless parading the HTC Imagio as one of the premier Windows Mobile 6.5 smartphones, the HTC Pure has geared up to claim the same stake over on AT&T. We’ll take a closer look to see if the HTC Pure has the stuff it takes to really stand out among the variants out there...
