  1. WTF….uhhhh no thanks. Aside from the fact that I can get a cheaper smart phone, there are better things I can get with 50k.

  2. Like a laptop for 50k. Though the phone reminds me of the Sony Ericsson X1.

  3. @jhay, it should as they are from the same maker. :)

    and at least i now have an idea on how much the SEX1 is going to cost (meaning really way out of my budget). :(

    ciao!

  4. i will definitely buy this when it comes out.

  5. waaat?? 50k? I might buy this thing maybe when i got paid on my upcoming extra jobs.. lol

  6. very tempting, but very expensive. i don’t think it is practical for that kind of price tag…

  7. Abe,

    Is WSI the new disti for HTC?

  8. It’s too damn expensive!!

    & cnet.com just gave it a mediocre rating… would rather get the samsung omnia for less.

  9. @Tech Box PH – yup, I think it’s WordText Systems Inc.

  10. Wow. Ah well, never liked it from the beginning.

    Yuga, any news on the BlackBerry Bold arriving here?

  11. I’ve been waiting for this for a long. Damn. It’s really expensive

  12. where can i buy one? ive been waiting for its release? which is better htc touch pro or htc touch hd? now im confused!

  13. Hi,

    You may visit the newly opened

    HTC Smart Mobility Concept Store
    CyberZone, SM Mall of Asia
    tel: 02-7091027

  14. I think it is wiser to buy this phone in the US. It is around $250-$300 there.

  15. Hi! I bought an HTC Touch Pro from my friend for only P46,000 with one year warranty. Also included is a screen protector and leather case which is better than those included in the Touch Pro retail box. She’s also selling other HTC units. You may contact me at 091781***** if you’re interested.

  16. dont buy. htc warranty sucks bigtime. you are gonna regret it.

  17. marianne: if you want to play games on HTC Touch, opt for Touch Pro, you can use the keyboard for gaming. Touch HD doesn’t have multi-touch, there is no way for game developers to implement game controls on screen. if i will not use Touch Pro as a gaming device or Playstation emulator, Touch HD would be impossible for me to resist. 800×480 (vs iPhone’s 480×320 only) screen area is nice for net browsing, plus 5 megapixel camera, and non-proprietary headphone jack

  18. im selling my HTC TOUCH PRO for only 42k (neg.) i just bought it last OCTOBER 27,2008, my package includes screen protector, leather case, 1GB micro sd card and bluetooth headset, cables and charger….

    REASON FOR SELLING:
    Im a nokia user and i tried using HTC fon for a change…but really, im having a hard time using it…especially when im in the car…( i know i should not be using my cellphone while im in the car,but i have my own reason why…=)) my contact # 0917-3828290 IF INTERESTED MY MEETING POINT IS IN ALABANG TOWN CENTER…OR SM LAS PINAS… THX

  19. and i forgot…my package also includes one year warranty and i bought it directly at HTC STORE… and i can guarantee u that it has no defect good as new..its just 4 days old only….thx again

  20. well, i certainly fell in love with this phone! :)) my plan is to buy in the US, it costs around $800+. atleast it’s still cheaper there compare to here.

  21. haha :D cool i want to buy that.
