HTC TyTN IIThis time I got another chance to review a device that claims to have more powerful features than any mobile communications device that we have seen before, the HTC TyTN II that tries to take global connectivity to the next level.

HTC TyTN II, or known as Kaiser before the official announcement. This device is the successor of TyTN; it is moving the form-factor to the next level. It is looks like more comfortable to use. I just want to say that this device is very interesting. A powerful Windows Mobile phones, its operating system is Windows Mobile 6 Professional.

HTC Kaiser (HTC P4550) had its name officially changed to HTC TyTN II since few weeks ago. This device is supporting tri-band HSDPA/UMTS and quad-band GSM. In addition, the HTC TyTN II also comes with GPS for navigation, which is not found in its predecessor, TyTN.

HTC TyTN II comes with 128MB RAM and 256 ROM. HTC TyTN II looks like it will be quite a workhorse. With 128MB RAM, HTC TyTN II is a luxury because it depletes the battery faster in favor of better performance. All things remaining constant, we should see greater responsiveness when multitasking, something power users will surely welcome.
