HTC has unveiled the direct successor to the Dopod 838 Pro, HTC TyTN II, a mobile device with a full suite of functionality and finesse attached to its branding. The HTC TyTN II comes with slogan “The Ultimate Mobile Companion“. At first glance, the HTC TyTN II looks like a normal sized Windows Mobile device, built with comfort and sturdiness in mind. Weighing in at a hefty 190g, not so light, it has the sliding QWERTY keyboard that the open starts from the right to the left based on customer feedback, as compared to Dopod 838 Pro which has left to right sliding direction. The main attraction would be the HTC TyTN II’s tilting screen which creates hype over its pseudo mini-notebook look, in a size of 2.8-inch QVGA screen. Well, the built-in 3-megapixel camera has only mediocre quality though.

The HTC TyTN II utilizes what is known as advanced touch screen technology. Note that it is not the same as the TouchFlo interface as seen on the HTC Touch. Essentially, the advanced touch screen interface encompasses what you love in the TouchFlo interface, minus the Touch Cube. It also features GPS navigation with its GPS receiver called gpsONE, truly making the HTC TyTN II the successor of the Dopod 838 Pro.

The list of specification can be listed:
