    You can use a regular mini usb cable on the HTC Touch diamond. The port on the underside has an extra pin to enable audio when using headphones, thats why it appears a different shape.
    Thanks

    The HTC proprietary connector is a standard mini-USB connector. However, it has audio/video out on the other side of the little tab on the inside. It's shaped different so the headphones/video cable can be plugged in there, but not to a standard mini-USB connector. Keeps people from saying "Hey, this will work on my MP3 player!" and finding out it doesn't.

    Noah I love you and miss you. I vividly remember watching this video as a kid. I wish you would make a come back. Now and days everyone Talks about Tobey McGuire doing a Spider-Man crossover with Tom Holland.... All I want to see is a Noah Kravitz Crossover with MKBHD.

    It's funny watching these videos now, because of how much phones have come and the big features here are pretty obsolete now.

    I just want to say thank you for what you do because there's no way most cellular customers would be able to make a firm decision on what phone to get without people like you displaying various different phones and the functionality's of the phones. So once again on behalf of everyone who views your videos to help determine what phone is best for them thank you!

    @1337HiVe 16 лет назад

    dude!you really rock!I've just tried plugging my old mini-USB lying on my desk into the Touch Diamond and it WORKS. ->charging,syncing,data transfer...everything works!
    Untill now I thought it was the phones biggest weakness, but now with this problem is sorted out i'm a happy man! :)
    Thanks for your helpful comment, specially because the Diamonds connector is proclaimed as "propietary" by many sources while its NOT, its a common and widely available mini-USB...
    cheers

    the iPhone is first party software ONLY, not a smartphone by conventional terms, being that a smartphone is a platform device that allows software to be installed.

  • @oldn00bster
    @oldn00bster 16 лет назад

    I don't know if anyone else already posted this, so sorry if I'm repeating. But the dimond as well as all HTC Touch phones DO SUPPORT any mini-usb cable. I for one already lost my miniusb cable and I use a standard one from a WD Passport HDD.
    Besides the shape(wich is compatible with any mini usb cable) they added 3 extra "pins" for audio on the ubs port.

  • @tobiewolfen01

    Depending on which version you buy, it with either 8 or 16GB internal storage. You also have a slot for a MicroSD on both versions; you potentially could have 32GB of space for data! (16GB internal + 16GB micro-HCSD) The phone is programmed to see both storage spaces simultaneously; you have to choose which storage unit you want to use, but it's easy to switch back and forth. Older-high-end phones had two slots for storage, a Compact Flash (CF) and SD.

    You can't use the USB cable that comes with the HTC Touch Diamond with anything else but you can use any miniB to USB cable with it. It fits and works just like with their cable...

  • @Hypercubert
    @Hypercubert 15 лет назад

    Remark: It is not correct that for the HTC you need a *special* mini-usb cable as stated at about 6:00, you can use a standard cable as you get it in every computer store. The unlike-shaped jack is just because there are HTC-specific headsets which look similar to the mini-usb-connector.

  • @PiWiVlogs
    @PiWiVlogs 15 лет назад

    it really depends on you, whether you prefer a better camera or a phone that has a 3.5mm headset jack.
    but for me, i'd prefer the Omnia, windows mobile UI, 5 megapixel camera, and widgets customisation.
    but hey that's my opinion.
    so yeah, hope that helped you decide

    no. you actually can't do an extension with a new phone you will have to pay full price for the brand new phone which is an outrageous price. sometimes if you get lucky at the corporate office you can get a one year contract price IF you have a year left on your contract. hope that helps

  • @Gwalchgwyn
    @Gwalchgwyn 15 лет назад

    That's not so silly - the HTC cable provides the same functionality as a standard USB mini-B plug (power and data connections) PLUS extra connections for audio (analogue) that aren't part of the USB (digital) standard. What is a little daft (though made up for by the splitter you mention) is that there is no standard headphone socket - something that in this day and age I would expect a manufacturer to consider as essential in multimedia device design.

  • @Rubymaster

  • @Skarre2
    @Skarre2 15 лет назад

    My HTC takes regukar USB, but some functions is lost with regular USB, not clear why. After contacting HTC-support center they told me that this is known by HTC. The charging and PC-connection works, but some functions like music outout to speakers is lost. However, there is an adaptor that can be used as a HUB to connect 2,5 mm, 3,5 mm cables and also split charger and headphone wich is not standard on the pfhone... wich really is silly.
    Other than that, I love my HTC Diamond.

    first ask verizon if theyll allow that and if they do go to any (at least most will) wireless shop that carries international/unlocked phones and theyll do it for you but you may not be able to use many features like the music store and some apps (u can still download 3rd party ones)

    @valkyrieXX uhh... super lcd is actually 50% samsung, 50% sony lol. super amoled is awesome, and hummingbird is nice too. when i said "cheap plastics" i meant cheap LOOKING plastics, im sorry but i just hate fingerprints on my tech. the 45nm snapdragons actually have pretty good battery life. "generic snapdragon" is an interesting phrase, since both snapdragon and hummingbird are based on the same "generic " ARM cortex processor.

    Can't wait until HTC's phones hit US carriers. If you didn't know they already have the "HTC Dream" on the way to T-Mobile, it's just moments away from a phone hitting Verizon or AT&T

  • @killer2600
    @killer2600 16 лет назад

    I'm the same, I like to have control and be able to do stuff but all the win mobile phones I've tried out responded like crap and weren't as controllable as I'd like (namely the web browser zoom on the touch - 2 zoom settings: in and out; zoom in is still not zoomed enough for the small screen). Just because I didn't like these win mobile phones doesn't mean I adore the iphone because I don't, it was just less frustrating trying to do the things it can do - but yea there's a ton it doesn't do.

    Also, HTC phone is smaller and it easy to fit in your pocket, get the black color, it's nice to carry it to the club. HTC is da bomb, and the cold thing about is that I don't find that much of people carrying the same phone as I have. :)

  • @astrak1001
    @astrak1001 15 лет назад

    Google "Iphone is not a smartphone". By technical definition the first releases were not smartphones as they didn't allow third party apps without jailbreaking, even 2.0 is limited in it's capabilities as in MMS, copy paste and other functions. 3.0 has added this but still falls short of the capabilities of a WinMo device. The Iphone has a nice interface and some cool apps, but I can put an Iphone theme on the diamond and it will do the same thing an Iphone does.

  • @eddycraney15
    @eddycraney15 16 лет назад

    maybe the word will spread and it might happen and this is why i think the iphone needs a pull out key board like the samsung glyde
    1. when you walking its hard to touch the right letter because your moving
    2. the keyboard would be and as big as the iphone and people would love it

  • @mozzmanau
    @mozzmanau 15 лет назад

    You CAN use ANY mini USB attachment with the HTC Diamond or Touch Pro even though it looks different. I use standard mini USB connectors all the time with my HTC Touch Pro. This review isnt very accurate. Yo0u forgot to mention that the HTC has a Micro SD Slot. You are correct in saying that HTC is 3rd. The HTC Touch Flow 3D is horrible. I disabled it on my Touch Pro

    @JasonA12345 16 лет назад

    You've changed what you had said, you said the iphones camera sucks(probably because all to know is from the specs), and the iPhone doesn't jut have double tap zoom you can pinch in and out which is the Easyest way to zoom know to man, and with gloves I only just put mine on and started using the phone, so it's not just if they heat up, and anyway how often are you going to be using it with gloves on?

    @Gwalchgwyn 15 лет назад

    "...so you can't use a regular USB cable on it..."
    WRONG!
    The socket is so designed that the regular mini-B USB plug fits perfectly (thus allowing for standard mini-USB cables to be used for PC connectivity and charging) but the proprietary plug on HTC's cables will only work with their own devices.
    A point I would have thought pertinent is that although it has the greatest screen area (and arguably the best touch-screen) the iPhone has the lowest resolution of the three.

    if you look at the speakers gestures closely you see, that he actually tries to do iphone gestures on the other phones, as well. and they don't respond well to those gestures.

  • @doldford345

    i have the htc touch 2, its a really amazing cell, dosnt freeze as much as black berry's, & other touch screen phones. in the video he saies its like a mini usb but diff & u cant use as a mini usb but u can, i use a Motorola mini usb charger/ps3 controller cord/even tom tom 12V cig lighter in my car. i can use these cords for charging or transfer info. So im glad i got the htc, ohh its very rugged, ive dropped it on concrete stairs, in a slush & salt slurry on the side of the road many times.

  • @beejor
    @beejor 15 лет назад

    iPhone has a few pretty strong downsides (expensive, locked to AT&T and their own technologies, etc), but based on the video the iPhone looks the most responsive to touch. The reviewer's gestures were frequently ignored on the other phones requiring multiple corrections. Something like that would drive me nuts in day-to-day use.

  • @Skarre2
    @Skarre2 15 лет назад

    Maybe not. But still, the sound does not travel through at standard USB from the phone to a speaker or other external device with a standard USB. The proprietary plug got an extra pin for audio wich the standard USB does not have,
    Another silly thing is that I cant work out how to get the text messages to the comuter to print them. Annoying. But that might be me being silly. ;-)

    @Croadfrog 16 лет назад

    *Samsung Omnia (best windows mobile phone, best PDA).
    *iPhone 3G (best multimedia and touch screen phone, with loads of good applications).
    *HTC Touch Diamond (not worth buying it, really slow... good for job as PDA).
    Anyway, I would stick to iPhone 3G, it will have loads of new updates including Tomtom GPS, and more programs, at the moment, the fastest phone.
