Description:
The slim, pocket-sized AT&T Tilt smartphone is bursting at the seams with a full-menu of wireless capabilities to keep you connected wherever you roam on this globe--quad-band GSM for global roaming, Wi-Fi, EDGE, and 3G data connectivity via AT&T's UMTS/HSDPA-based BroadbandConnect network. Practical and versatile, the phone's face slides open to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard while the screen tilts for optimal viewing of email, spreadsheets, and web videos. It also adds the power of the Windows Mobile 6 operating system (Professional Edition), which provides push email for immediate send and receive as well as editing of Microsoft Office documents. (See more details about Windows Mobile 6 below.) With its high-speed 3G network capability, you'll be able to access AT&T's Mobile Music and Cellular Video services, and the phone includes the latest version of Telenav GPS Navigator for turn-by-turn directions while on the go. One of the most powerful, feature-packed smartphones on the market, the AT&T Tilt also includes a 3-megapixel camera (with video capabilities), Bluetooth connectivity with stereo music streaming and multiple connection capability, MicroSD memory card expansion up to 4 GB, and a variety of games for when you need a break (including Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07 and Ms. Pac-Man). The AT&T Tilt is a veritable wireless Swiss Army Knife, with quad-band GSM, tri-band 3G, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth connectivity as well as a GPS receiver. AT&T Service The AT&T Tilt can handle high-speed data connectivity via AT&T's 3G mobile broadband data network, which is available in most major metropolitan areas. The AT&T 3G network uses the UMTS 850/1900/2100 network (also known as WCDMA), making it possible to enjoy a variety of feature-rich wireless multimedia services with speeds up to 3.6 Mbps. It also gives AT&T the advantage of offering simultaneous voice and data services. You'll also enjoy 3G broadband speed connectivity across the globe with tri-band UMTS/HSDPA capabilities, which allows the Tilt to operate in Japan and Korea, in addition to the more than 135 countries in which AT&T offers international data roaming. In areas where the 3G network is not available, you'll continue to receive service on the AT&T EDGE network, which offers availability in more than 13,000 US cities and along some 40,000 miles of major highways. Providing average data speeds between 75-135Kbps, it's fast enough to support a wide range of advanced data services, including video and music clips, full picture and video messaging, high-speed color Internet access, and email on the go. With 3G connectivity, you'll be able to access AT&T's Cellular Video (CV) service and the Internet while on the go. Cellular Video features content from CNN, The Weather Channel, iFilm, Comedy Central and exclusive premium content from HBO and much more. It also features AT&T Mobile Music, which provides access to Napster and eMusic subscription services as well as Music ID song-recognition software, music videos and The Buzz music news portal. The handset is XM Radio Mobile-capable, so you can enjoy streaming live digital radio as well. (An AT&T MEdia Max subscription bundle is recommended for accessing AT&T's Internet, video, and music services.) Like a micro laptop, the AT&T Tilt features a full QWERTY keyboard and a face/touchscreen that tilts up to 40 degrees. Phone Features Akin to a micro laptop, the AT&T Tilt's face/touchscreen tilts up to a maximum of 40 degrees, and the variable screen angle can be positioned to suit your needs, whether you're catching up on email, browsing the Web, or playing a game. The QWERTY keypad offers roomy, rectangular buttons that are tactile and backlit, making it easy to type with both thumbs while on the go. The large 2.8-inch touchscreen has a 240 x 320-pixel resolution and support for up to 65K colors. It sports a 256 MB memory (not all user available) and a MicroSD memory card slot, which is compatible with the latest 4 GB capacity.

AT&T Tilt Smartphone (AT&T)
Reviews:

starsA great phone made by a great company.
HTC is a global leader in micro pc's and micro pc/cell phones.

I was happy to learn they'd be making the AT&T tilt.

Running windows mobile 6, this phone is packed with features and power.

The ONLY con is that it is still shipping with its old ROM version 1.5... Updating to version 1.6 on HTC's website will improves performance and battery life and make the unit much faster.

The At&t tilt is basicallly a micro notebook, that happens to be a cell phone too.

USB connectivity, Bluetooth, WiFi, and cell phone access give you more ways to connect to the net. The unit is fast on 3G cell phone networks for internet media, even faster on a wireless network.

The design is genious, the keyboard is ample.

It comes with 128MB memory upgradable to 32GB micro SD... twice as much storage capacity as the iphone.

In case you're wondering, 32GB microSD cards are not sold yet in the U.S., though they were made by Toshiba in 2007, they (and the 16GB versions) should be out later in 08 or 09. Until then, Amazon sells the 8GB microsd cards which should suffice until the larger cards come out.

This phone is the ultimeate for ultra high end phones. Great for students, business professionals and healthcare professionals.

I can't say enough about this device... if you can afford it, it is worth it.

Geek tested and approved.


starsDo It All Device - Think Twice About Upgrade from 8525
I'm surprised Amazon reviews seems to be on average lower than CNET Reviews. CNET Users are known to be sticklers when it comes to giving high reviews and as of today this had an 8.3 on CNET which is really good for CNET. But I'm probably more inline with the Amazon reviewers...

Don't get me wrong, this is a definite step up for users of the previous version of this phone, the 8525, but other than the GPS and double internal memory (128MB instead of 64MB) all the other improvements are relatively minor compared to those two major improvements. If you are a power user looking for a phone that "does it all" this is basically the best choice on the market - it blows the iPhone which is more of a mainstream - multimedia oriented phone than a power user PDA phone.

I won't go into the details on all the minor improvements - the gadget freaks that live for the latest device can rant and rave about all the bells and whistles on this device until the cows come home. It is quite a feature packed device, the closest thing I've seen so far to a device that "does it all."

I was going to wait for an even better version to come out before upgrading from my 8525, although I really was attracted to having a built-in GPS, but it's too expensive and time consuming to keep upgrading PDA phones every 18 months. However I dropped and broke my 8525 and that made the decision for me.

Luckily the phone can now be had for $199 refurbished with contract renewal with AT&T and the phone is basically just like a new phone and comes in plain white box with 90-day warranty instead of 1-year. These things are solid-state, no internal moving parts like a hard drive, so if they're going to fail, they'll fail in the first 90 days in my experience. Plus credit card doubles warranty anyway. So no worries saving $100 buying refurb.

If this phone didn't have a GPS, I would have repaired my 8525 with new screen for $99 or bought a refurbed 8525 for $125. The Tilt is definitely the better phone overall, but when you are a power user it costs not only the money but more importantly the several hours of loading all your applications, configuring them and all the settings, email accounts, etc. It's can be a BIG pain a very time consuming if you have a lot of apps and customizations on your phone.

So overall I like it better than the 8525 due to the GPS, but there are several dissapointments:

1) Probably the biggest drawback of this phone is they took the camera flash out. The 8525 had a great little flash that allowed close-up low-light indoor photos and you could use it as a flashlight. Not on the Tilt.

2) Even though the camera is 3 megapixel instead of 2 megapixel, it doesn't take better pictures, even outdoors. In fact, the pictures sometimes look worse! I'm into digital photography also. If you understand how digital camera CCD's work, you will know more megapixels doesn't always mean better picture, usually worse (more noise), but from a average consumer marketing standpoint, everyone assumes more is better.

2) The battery life on this phone is average at best. Not as good as 8525, and abysmal if you use the GPS a lot. That's I guess a drawback of having such a powerful phone. Be interested to see if higher capacity batteries are available.


3) The tilt screen is a bunch of hype. With the screen tilted it is actually harder to use the keyboard then when it isn't tilted as there is less finger room at the top of the keyboard. The two soft keys are virtually unusable for all but the smallest hands if the screen is tilted, so I don't even tilt it. What a stupid gimick.

4) The keyboard overall is not as nice as the one on the 8525. While I like the finish of the keys, they don't stick up as much or press down as much, hard to tell as the 8525 so the keyboard is not as comfortable to use in my opinion.

5) The change to the buttons are a step backwards in my opinion for two reasons: a) they moved the e-mail and IE buttons down so that everything is crowded in one clump of buttons now making the buttons more difficult to press for the average size or larger finger/thumb, and b) the chrome finish is cheesy looking and just shows fingerprint smudges.

6) You can't store e-mail on the storage card without removing the Messaging plug-in from the Today screen. There are a number of registry hacks to make Windows Mobile operate better and use memory more efficiently. One of the most popular are the three hacks that allow the phone to use the Storage Card to store e-mail messages, e-mail attachments (that's also a setting in Windows), and My Documents folders on your storage card. This works fine and dandy with the 8525, but with the Tilt, the phone boots differently so that it loads the Messaging Today plug in before it recognizes the SD card. What ends up happening is that if you do the e-mail hack to store email on the card, the phone will create a folder in main memory called Storage Card and call the SD card Storage Card2. LUCKILY, the phone has 128MB of internal memory instead of 64MB, so even users who store entire copies of 1000 or more Outlook e-mails on their phone, there's now enough memory to not worry about storing the email on the storage card instead of internal memory. So I just store the attachments on the storage card with no worries. So essentially this isn't really a drawback that you can't store email on the card due to the larger internal memory, but I though I should include this for power users who uses the registry hack previously so they know they can't do it on the Tilt without disabling the Messaging Today plug-in.

With all the nit picking, I still would highly recommend this phone to anyone looking for the most advanced, feature packed phone that does everything.

HOWEVER, if you are coming from an 8525 or similar device and the GPS is no big deal to you and you are satisfied with your device, don't waste your time and money. Wait one more version to get something even better, more worthy of the cost and time to upgrade.


starsNot So Great as a Phone
I've tweaked mine and added 3rd party programs, but you can't get around the fact that it's pretty darn hard to make a simple phone call without the stylus, and it's especially frustrating to use the keypad for call options (e.g. voice mail) once your call is connected. This just plain sucks.

Basic phone call operations turn into a two handed procedure, pretty dangerous when you're on the road.

After 5 months with this phone, I'm really missing a phone that has a keypad. I've gone back to my Nokia 73 and will continue shopping for a better Windows Mobile device...


starsWould be an awesome phone if it wasn't so slow
Everything on this phone is slower than it should be due to the fact that HTC chose not to include hardware graphics acceleration (something that is present on ALL other smartphones). As a result the graphics take longer to render on every single program you run, from email to web browser. It doesn't matter, it will run slower than it should due to the graphics problem.

From what I understand this is something HTC can fix by releasing drivers for the 3D graphics chip on the units processor. However they seem to be ignoring the customers who purchased their product.

Overall I am happy with look and feel of the phone. I would like stereo speakers and better bluetooth quality, but some of the tweaks I used helped the bluetooth.

The phone runs a little better after you spend 20-30 hours on the internet researching it and tweaking it, but there is really no excuse for not having the 3D drivers.

The GPS works good, however the GPS software (I've tried four different programs) has trouble rendering the screen and is choppy and sluggish due to the missing drivers.

The camera is all but unusable due to the missing drivers, it has alot of trouble rendering the target and takes along time to process the picture due to having to do everything through software and having no hardware graphical support. The video it records is horrible and the audio doesn't sync due to the driver problem.

An advertised feature, HSDPA,is disabled by default by AT&T. You have to either have it show hidden files and dig deep in the windows file to find the program that turns it on and off that should be available in the settings area. Or you can search the net and find a utility someone wrote that enables it along with fixing other issues on the phone.

Once the HSDPA is enabled, the speed is really fast if you are in a 3G area that supports it.

So, at this point I would say avoid this phone until the company does the right thing and shows it cares about it's customers.


starsThe AT&T Cell Phone stinks as a phone , yet is good online.

starsHow did I do it without a Smartphone before??
My husband and I each got one of these just over a week ago and we have been very pleased with it. Amongst our frieds, we are considered 'late adopters' when it comes to Smartphones.

The main reason we picked this phone over the other PDA phones available:

1. WiFi - we want to be able to use our phone without paying a lot even when we are roaming. If we have WiFi access, we could still use the internet (surfing, emails, IMs) and make PC-to-PC calls with this phone using Skype without paying voice and data roaming fees. Granted, we will need to find free WiFi access while travelling, but if free service is available, why not? In case of emergencies, we wouldn't have cared about the cost of roaming anyway.

2. Microsoft Platform - I know a lot of people do not like the Windows Mobile software... many people do not like Microsoft products, period; however, I am a creature of habit and I like the familiar feel of MS products. I am sure it could be better, but it works for me and I will just wait for upgrades in the future.

3. Ability to sync with Exchange - this is a feature my husband cares about. We were considering the iPhone, but was told that it does not sync with Exchange, which means he can't check work email.... not very useful to have a PDA phone that does not sync with all email systems no matter how slick it may look.

4. GPS - It's a nice bonus. And you can use any GPS software you want - free ones like Google Maps and Windows Live Search or get the Tom Tom software. So you don't have to pay for the AT&T service.

We did lots of research before picking this phone and we have found that the main complaints people have are the speakphone and video driver issues. Luckily for us, the videio issue doesn't affect us: we don't plan on watching videos or playing sophisticated games on the phone. The location of the speakerphone is unfortunate, but we don't really use that feature anyway; and for handsfree in the car, we use Bluetooth headset and speaker (The Motorola T305 works quite well). We downloaded an application called Bluetooth Audio which would transfer the audio (GPS and music) to the speaker/headphone, so it works well in the car. This software has its bugs, but I am sure better ones will come out as the demand for such an application increases.

There are lots of downloads available for Smartphones and mobile devices, so you can totally customize it. Until a couple of weeks ago, all I wanted was a phone that could make calls, no need for a camera, downloadable ringtones... But now that I have got everything on the Tytn, I don't know how I made it in the past without a Smartphone!!


starsGood Phone, Bad Service through AT&T
This phone was excellent. I loved it! After 5 weeks of use, I pulled the phone out of my pocket to put it on the counter and the screen was cracked. I called AT&T and they won't do anything for me. Be warned, this phone does not have equipment insurance available for it! If you spend all that money for this phone, and it breaks, you get nothing! So buy it, have fun with it, and never ever, ever, ever let anyone else use it cuz if it breaks that's it, it's all over.


starsGreat for those who never seem to spend much time at home
I purchased this phone when it was first introduced to the market, about 3 months ago or so, and thus far, I've enjoyed the experience, and am thoroughly pleased with what I've gotten. I go into more detail below in list form, but for a brief summation, I'll just say that this is an excellent communication phone, with great quality voice calls, excellent download and browsing speeds, and good email and messaging capabilities. GPS is very well integrated, and the Windows Mobile platform is incredibly convenient. The keyboard and screen are also very user-friendly. Doesn't really have an impressive media arsenal, so if you're looking for an entertainment phone, with a focus on music and video, look into an Apple iPhone. Otherwise, great for organization, picture and file sharing, and staying in touch, world-wide or locally. I very much recommend this phone.

The PROs:

The Windows Mobile 6 platform. Syncs very well with my PC, is easy to set up, and user-friendly, once you get the logistics of the programs down. The extra memory allows programs to run very quickly and easily, and the Today screen and displays are convenient, and functional. (You can also add memory through a MicroSD card, located at the bottom of the phone. Mine's a 4G and works more than adequately.) The contact list and calendar both work off the Outlook base, which I've found convenient and very concise, not to mention very flexible in terms of personal preferences. The best part is the Windows Mobile, which allows you to edit, and transfer documents in Excel, Word, and Powerpoint from your PC to your phone very easily, just by dragging and dropping while hooked up to your desktop or laptop, as you would with any external drive. For the student on the go who ends up studying while at work, or editing a paper due the next day, I've found this beyond helpful, and really, really convenient.

The keyboard is roomy, with larger keys that are raised slightly, don't stick or slip, and set-up with function keys that are simple and easy to get used to. Very nice for texting, emailing, document editing, etc., especially with the back-lighting. One thing that I am rather pleased with is the array of keys, keyboard and front, and their usefulness when it comes to short-cuts. The fixed mail and Internet Explorer keys especially are useful, and I am a fan of having them at the same level as the phone and scroll keys. Once I got the arrangment and functions down, I rarely, if ever, used the stylus.

The touchscreen feature is really enjoyable, and works very well without major problems, since the screen functions off light pressure instead of heat sensitivity. The screen itself is beautiful, with bright colors and large size, perfect for web browsing and picture-viewing. The tilting aspect is not, of course, a necessary sort of addition to the AT&T line, but it's amazing how much more comfortable and secure that position makes you feel while holding it, especially since the back of the phone has an incorporated rubber-like material, which makes it really easy to grip. (I've also heard a few complaints about the size, that the phone is "bulky", but really, I havn't gotten that impression. It's no Blackberry Pearl, but it's not exactly going to rip your pocket, either.)

One word: Fast. Especially over the 3G network. Downloads are quick, web-browsing is enjoyable, and calls are fantastic. The clarity over the phone on both ends of the call is always exceptionally clear and loud. Even in remote areas, where the 3G isn't available, this phone picks up EDGE and GPRS very easily, and rolls up or back to the next strongest network automatically. The tethering available for laptop modems is also an extremely convenient aspect, very easy to use, though definitely doesn't replace a high-speed connection by any means. The GPS intergration is also a fantastic option, and works quickly and very accuratly once the satellites are found. I've downloaded Google maps, and it works very well with the phone. There is also TeleNav available for the phone through AT&T for an extra fee, and there are other programs like TomTom, but with Google and Yahoo Y.20, you've really no need, unless you want vocal instructions to go with the directions.

The CONs:

This is not a media phone. I repeat, this is not a media phone. You can load it up with music and videos, and it will play nicely through Windows Media, but it's not anything worth crooning about. The speakers are clear, for the most part, though not very loud, and there isn't a headphone jack on the phone. Bluetooth stereo works pretty well in this case, but I have an iPod for my music, so I wasn't too put out by the handicapped music capabilities. The camera is pretty good, 3MP, and takes quality photos, but there is a shutter delay, so action shots are pretty much ruled out. (I got rid of the shutter delay somewhat by downgrading to a high-resolution 2MP setting.) The video quality is also a bit grainy, no matter how fast the streaming speed, which is a bit disappointing, seeing as how that's a major factor for my catching up with shows and newscasts that I miss while working.

Windows Mobile 6 is a bit buggy at times. The Internet Explorer will sometimes start up and not load a page, though resetting the page history and temporary files fixes that, or restarting the phone, as well. There's a delay when switching to landscape mode when opening the keyboard, and programs sometimes delay or freeze without apparent reason, though this is pretty rare. I ended up setting mine to permanent landscape mode to get rid of the delay, since I end up using the keyboard and keys more than anything else. I actually prefer the two-handed setting, really. Windows also has a really annoying sort of organizing system when it comes to placing downloaded files in convenient places. (For example, defaulting a downloaded game to the "Programs" folder instead of the "Games and Apps" folder was just kind of ridiculous.)

The IM feature is very slow, and there is always a delay when connecting and sending with the server. I just ended up not using the feature, which wasn't a huge loss. There is also no push email inherent on the phone, and though AT&T does offer a push set-up, I coudn't get it to work properly on the phone, so I ended up uninstalling the feature. The send/recieve function works more than adequately, though, and with as many email accounts as you need, so unless you're a Blackberry user and used to their integrated push system, I highly doubt that you'll see that as a huge con. The fact that the phone's screen turns off during calls (which isn't a setting that you can change), and then by default prompts for a security password (unless you turn that feature off), is a somewhat annoying, but not a huge problem.


Otherwise? Fantastic phone. I've yet to find a perfect phone, but this one suits my lifestyle (on-the-go, never at home) perfectly. Like I said, I recommend it highly.


starsGreat phone/PDA/everything you could need.
After reading off the reports (better and worse) I decided to take the header and the inclination receive. I safe in the morning gladly I! The telephone is ehrfuerchtig! Sound quality is large. Illustration quality (for a telephone) is ehrfuerchtig. Much of the programs, to I employs to hold. The only down side to their is the size. But I considered it hardly even in my bag. And if you liked any of the really special programs (plays, InterNet, etc..) use you must from the nose for it pay.


starsGood...only if you hack it up
If you want to use this phone for any multimedia then just turn yourself around and go buy an iPhone. I was very excited for this phone and it still works well for me but I've had to mess with it so much to get it that way it feels like a second job.

I've had to buy software to help manage the data connection to save battery life. I've had to flash a different ROM on it just to get it to speed up and not be dog slow. HTC could have really knocked one out of the park with this phone but they cheaped out.

I am now patiently awaiting the 3G iPhone.


starsProduct almost there - BAD COMPANY (HTC)- BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE
I bought an intelligent telephone of the inclination from ON


starsbuyer beware
As many other reviewers have said, the phone lacks proper video drivers to use the chipset resulting in very poor screen and video rendering.

Also, this phone has very poor speaker phone and bluetooth performance. I know I cannot use the speakerphone on my tytnii even though the phone is advertised as having such; do not know if this is a hardware problem or software problem; but even for users who have returned there phone for replacement under warranty, the speaker problem remains (one user returned his phone 3 times in attempt to resolve the speaker problem; and each time the problem remained).

Also, it should be noted that the video rendering problem is for any HTC phones that use the msm7xxx qualcomm processor; thus include the touch as well as other htc phones...do your research first; in general, be wary of any htc based phone based on msm7xxxxxx qualcomm processor as so far htc has indicated that no fix will be coming for "any existing" devices. (many are rebranded: ie: htc tytnii is also called the atandt tilt, the htc touch is also known as the sprint touch)





starsAT&T Tilt great package, poor performace
This is in all honesty supposed to be a great phone. I've gone through a couple of Cingular 8125s over the last 2-3 years, and was anxiously awaiting the next best thing to come out. And i was particularly waiting for something that had GPS built in, which is one reason i skipped the 8525.

But this phone in all honest SHOULD be a great phone, it has a lot of available ROM to install lots and lots of programs and utilities. As usual, w/ HTC handsets running windows mobile, you can get a boat load of custom applications if you're a tech savy person, and are comfortable w/ modding your phone. I personally love being able to pick and choose the applications that come w/ the phone, as the standard AT&T "bloatware" and today screen dont really interest me.

Speaker quality is actually pretty good, considering it has a single speaker compared to the dual speakers of my 8125. The placement is kind of bad though, being on the backside, if you lake the phone down then well...the sound coming out (if playing music) gets completely muffled.

As far as the speed of the phone, it seems to handle multiple programs pretty well, but i've had some issues as far as the screen lagging when switching from portrait to landscape modes (will discuss this a bit more later). Otherwise the internet seems to work great, 3G and HSPDA are a hell of a lot better than the standard EDGE i used on the 8125, or what people w/ the iphone have to deal with.

One of the main reasons i got this phone was i wanted it to be my portable computer, something that would be able to play music, movies, tv shows and keep me connected while i'm on the go. As it does music and connectivity just fine, there is a huge issue as far as video playback. In all honesty, the video playback on this phone is beyond horrible, its unwatchable. I've had better playback experiences on my 8125 which is amazing considering this is HAILED as the best and most multimedia powerful phone HTC has ever produced. The lack of video support offered by HTC is something that borderline makes me want to vow never to buy another HTC handset again. The thing is, they know that there's video playback issues and this stems from them not incorporating the proper video drivers to work w/ their chip inside the phone. They released a statement saying that updating the drivers is something that would cost a great deal of money (as if they're giving their handsets for free, and we're not paying them a tons of money for them), and there isn't going to be a fix with these current phones. If you want to get a fix, wait for the next generation of devices from them. I'm not sure about anyone else, but a company that says, "we gave you a product that doesn't fully function, we're not going to update it and fix it...but if you want a fix in the future, buy our newer version." is very undeserving of my future business.

If all your doing is using the basic features of the phone, this might be one of the greatest phones you've ever purchased. But then again, if you're just using basic features save your money and get a BlackJackII, Motorola Q Global, or a Palm 750 or Blackberry Pearl...you'll save a lot of money, and wont be left in the cold by any of those companies.

starsDecent phone but some issues!
I had this telephone since October 2007; before that I used a Treo 650 and V3i dependent on necessity. The telephone has a large set of characteristics and most to function well. Some things are a problem: The volume at this telephone is weak! The loudspeaker on the back does not play according to enough and if it receives loud, it distorts badly. The Treo set this to the dishonor. Bluetooth the headphone volume is much to the low with each possible headphone and I several tried. It is however straight hardly usable! Treo and V3i struck him easily. The video drivers are not weak or existent. Most video exhibition something Stottern. Treo better again. It is too bad the fact that HTC do not publish (and plans not on), these addressed, or this truely of if not the best telephone on the market would be.


starsI wanted to believe
Disappointing graphics and transmission. I shifted up(?) of the 8525 and than thrilled with the video achievement were less. I do not use, if for plays or watching out videos, it the convict with changing from the Portrait to the landscape or if you complain to, camera consider. Otherwise acceptably however for now would not be recommended to buy this until/unless which the graphics drivers are released or repaired.


starsBest Phone/PDA Available... On PAPER!
I had for months over the inclination excited and it am the large characteristic, which are stopped, as well as the promise of a wonderfully accomplishing PDA and call you combined. I finally stored up sufficient cash and bought. I had it for 30 days now. My first impression, after, to open the box and giving it my output loading it were that she was amazing. I received some and the telephone to my attached to use, applications of favourites begun. I began soon, by it to become disturbed am slow interface on straight approximately all applications. Sheets became painful and screen redraws were extremely slow. The note screen always did not determine the recording head, or my finger, the music player line interlacings occasionally and the camera is because of the extremely slow more viewfinder renew rate terriblly useless. They cannot really even the fact that see, what them an illustration of to take and if thinks you finally, received you the shot retards from the time, which you operate the key, until the illustration is really taken to warranties you them missed. I tried, short video tie-clips however again, the jumping over and violently tearing up marks to watch out this an unpleasant experience. I began to believe that there must be something with the telephone, possibly configuration a problem or any other error wrongly on my part. I began read reports and and it experienced forums fast that it was not I. It seems that many people had the similar or worse problems, than I has. If you wish, a telephone, which gives good achievement and a large characteristic, did not adjust then me would buy the inclination. There the characteristics are, but the achievement lacks strictly.


starsNo video drivers support. It runs slower than my old 8125
The title says it all. My old Cingular 8125 runs faster than this.
If you like gaming with your PDA, good luck in finding a game that runs smooth.

You also get random freezes with Windows Mobile 6. I have tried flashing different ROMs and I got the same problem.

Not sure if HTC will release some decent video drivers soon.




starsManufacturer (HTC) is misleading. They do not support hardware they incorporated in the device
The Tilt\Kaiser\Tytn II\8925, or whatever name you would like to use, is supposed to be the pinnacle of HTC's 8000 series of PDA phones. Featuring the Qualcomm MSM7200 chipset, it has the feature set to best all the competition:

400mhz dual core CPU
256mb ROM space
Full keyboard
HSDPA, EDGE, Wi-fi, GPS, and bluetooth enabled.
3MP, auto focus camera
Etc....

The Tilt also features ATI's Imageon processor. The Imageon line of processors is, from wikipedia:

"The Imageon (previously ATI Imageon) is a line of media processor line developed by ATI providing graphics acceleration and other multimedia features for handheld devices such as mobile phones and Personal Digital Assistants (PDA)."

Curiously, HTC has decided not to support the Imageon chip that is included in the Tilt's chipset by not providing drivers for it. This chip provides hardware acceleration for nearly all graphics related processing. Since the chip is un-supported, all video processing is software based, executed on the CPU. This EXTREMELY limits the graphics performance of the Tilt. And when I say limit, I am not talking about you won't be able to run PS2 games, I am talking you won't be able to use google maps smoothly bc the screen lags as the map moves around. I mean when you switch from portrait to landscape the screen will lag. I mean you cannot use the included 3 MP camera bc the screen cannot refresh fast enough to display what your camera lens is actually seeing.

Every aspect is effected by HTC's neglect. I have owned the Tilt for almost 3 months now, and am appalled at HTC's response to the situation, and their unwillingness to support the hardware they included with the device. It is dumbfounding. I hope HTC comes to their senses, until they do, the Tilt gets a 1 star rating.




starsLooks good on paper... Buyer Beware!
I bought this phone to replace my old 8125 (HTC Wizard) thinking that this phone has all the features to make it worth an upgrade. What a joke that was. My two year old phone with a much slower processor outperforms this phone in almost every way. After further research it looks like HTC did not include the proper video drivers so the phone apparently runs off software acceleration instead of hardware. As a result the touch screen is very lagged, video very choppy, quicker drain on battery life. After contacting HTC support 5 times they finally got back to me and then told me to buy one of their upcoming phones and these issues will be solved. I have always been a big fan of HTC phones and have recommended them to many people, and also as an IT manager I've always purchased these phones for employees. At this point I would never buy an HTC phone again or recommend one. Do your research if you still plan to purchase this phone!!


starsdissapointed



starsThis phone does not have proper hardware drivers!
I would not recommend this phone to anyone. In an attempt to compete with the release of the iPhone, HTC (the maker of this phone) rushed this thing out the door without including proper hardware drivers. The result is poor touchscreen performance, poor refresh rates and video playback, sluggish UI, and excessive battery drainage. HTC has mentioned that while they advertised the hardware as part of their selling point, it is up to the consumer to discover whether or not the stated hardware will actually be used. It has no plans to include drivers in the future, but will do so in new models to come out that it will be happy to sell you. Buyer beware! This phone literally performs worse than its predecessor the 8525. [...]


starsGood Hardware Poor implementation
The hardware on this device is excellent, as is the ATT service. Unfortunately HTC chose to Not implement proper video drivers. The video is slow and is significantly outperformed by 3+ year old devices. When this issue was called to the attention of HTC (The device manufacturer) we were informed that they would not address the issue and re-iterated that the device delivered a "Rich Multimedia Experience". Odd how they redefined Rich Multimedia to exclude video playback and good screen re-draw performance. I'm a long-time HTC fan, but this experience is going to mean that my next phone purchase is NOT a HTC manufactured device.


starsATT Tilt
The aspect of small article of the inclination is outstanding. The bloatware, the ATT to it sets, needs a Diaet. After I unite versions of Windows mobile 6 tried, which on the inclination (HTC TytnII/Kaiser) are (particularly made) by the individuals "cooked" are, and on one, enjoy I agreed, using this device for everything. If you buy, google "XDA sees developers" and which peoples with their to do. Their fantasy is the only thing, which holds back you from forming it one extention from you.


starsDon't buy this phone
In theory, this phone would be great. I was very excited about the touch screen and keypad for texting and emails. However, the screen is hard to touch by hand. But the worst part is that the phone I received is defective and the screen is black most of the time even when it is unlocked. Pressing buttons and the screen wont turn it on, you have to slide it out then press buttons to get it to function. It is not user friendly and they don't offer a warranty on the product because they know it is POS. Don't be fooled by the supposed options it provides, since they are hard to use and some don't work!!!

I do not possess this still, but I order tomorrow (Amazons price is! unbelievably). I have a question and if no answers it I this to update, if I for my find out. I play, in order to receive this together with a HP H470wbt (Bluetooth of mobile printers). I hope that I exceed and draw box up Bluetooth bag documents directly to the printer as well as email.

starsGreat multi-tasking phone! Esp. for medical professionals!
I bought this telephone, as I decided that I finally needed a combined unit, thus I, telephone and a palm could stop to carry. I did not wish a brombeere, because the programs, which I (epocrates - medication, lab tests and diagnosis lists) work on brombeere do not need. Pretty much the program works only on palm and MSMOBILEPLATTFORMEN. I was first because of the mixing reports nervous, but I can say that I am extraordinarily lucky with the inclination up to now! For palm a user is above different the sentence enough that it frustrated trying to become to be able to do things because it seems not very intuitive. However as soon as I decided to really read the instructions VIOLA! Everything perfectly and easily works on. SO! Read absolutely the instructions, before you use it - it can seem intuitively first, but you are frustrated by small differences, which cannot represent you out differently. All my output difficulties were user disturbance, thus, if you have expenditures, which I bets that her not yet the Anweisungen:o) like other comment read, has I found that the battery seems to increase the life while the days offense.

My only objections over the unit are: 1. The announcement page Unterhaelte, which strikes an explaining it as horizontal without mine, to so to do easily.

Great product. Arrived in a timely manner. Instructions included, yet I went to AT&T store for set. Looked for owner's manual until it was determined that information is online with AT&T website. Awesome value.


starsGreat Phone....Poor Software
From the box is this possibly efficient smartphone. However the software can a little sometimes be, which is problematic. If you use this for your job AND you have IT department, which supports it, then this is a really LARGE telephone. If you cannot be supported IT, you must learn to examine problems itself, if they arise. There is a quantity of positives over this device. E.G. there is a quantity large software available for the telephone. If the software is added and the telephone to your necessities is assembled, the inclination one becomes absolute terrific device. There are some annoying expenditures with the inclination. First the telephone screen the free area (dark) goes after some seconds of the maintenance at the telephone. If you must make the keys during a discussion accessible (e.g., like taxes by a telephone menu), you striking hold must to hardoperate small key on the side of the telephone thus, can you the keys see. The inclination secondly each time asks a new wireless connection (that the whole time happens, which the ability of this telephone is given), that, it you pop UP a report gives off. They cannot turn this off. There is an attitude to turn off to it but it does not function. Last, if you hold to again-load this clogged into the wall verge, over during a long time period, you must frequently again load. I does not come out it is "reloading sleep" very well out. This device the way wish you assemble it, you a little to be must techno geek. Plan to spend the HOURS this telephone received to wish in order to work on the way, you it. I spent the innumerable hours in such a way doing and her quite as a waste of my time to regard, but necessarily, so that I receive her, in order to work on the way, which I wished it. Final result, the inclination is possibly a large telephone with TONS of large characteristics. I like it. I wish straight that it would be a consumer-friendlier point. I believe to receive still, as if I must go to the InterNet, answers to expenditures, which I have with the telephone... I sometimes wish that I had a personal IT department for this device. If you like with your telephone and the software fiedeln, this could be a fun device. However if you are busy and not time for this have, form time. They need it.

when I investigated this individual part, which, it like a i telephone plus..., after h, which is it some days I aving, numerous problems with it vorderst it doesnt stay in the service for more than 10 minuetes at a time had the screen is slowly-acting largely looked and sometimes doesnt at all to react it has really cool characteristics with its wifi and the Mikrosd is large map thing for info., if you can now arrive to him at synchronization at her computer me, must drive to the memory and over for y to ask I form a telephone call or a text my friends on my brand-new condition of the intelligent telephone of the art tilt.


starsIt has EVERYTHING!
I'm a huge cell phone fan and I tend to try out the latest and greatest. So far, this phone is it. I won't rehash all the features because you can read about those elsewhere. The highlights for me were the excellent battery life and the fact that it has just about every feature you could want in a PDA phone. The size isn't even that bad. I had resisted getting a PDA phone because of the size, but I've found I can still get this into my pocket. I'm glad I didn't give in to getting an iPhone because this has it beat. The only thing I found annoying is that there is no mini-plug jack. You can buy an inexpensive converter to plug in headphones, but it's weird they didn't include that. Otherwise, I love it. Makes me glad I have AT&T.


starsHow Cool Is This???
This has got to be one of the greatest "toys" I have ever gotten!! I can't put this phone down!! I looked at it in an ATT store but didn't really want to pay $400.00 each for 2 phones so I put it back and forgot about it - then I got an email from Amazon (see? Advertizing DOES pay!! LOL!!) about new cell phones and found it again at less than half the store price - couldn't resist. I got two, and we have not stopped playing with them for three days!! Easy to operate, crammed so full of features I will NEVER use them all, synced to my laptop intuitively, adding or removing music is amazingly easy - just hook up, click, and drag to the phone.....

I did see some questions on adding music as ringtones? I opened the phone itsself on my laptop (Drive E for me), went to My Documents, opened My Ringtones, and drug the music straight to there, have not figured out how to get it from Media Player to My Documents in the phone itsself, had to use the laptop.

I will MAYBE agree that there might be TOO MUCH stuff included in the phone program/game/accessory-wise, but if you stop and think about it, AT&T wants as much to offer as wide a scope of the population as possible, so who's to say what may be useless to me might not be vital to someone else? And again, when I opened the phone on my laptop it was certainly easy enough to delete the items I don't need......

I LOVE the transcriber as well!! Write on the screen with the stylus, it converts it to text, you send it as a msg., save it as a note or word doc, I just LOVE that! For quick notes it's just the best!! It seems to decypher my "chicken scratch" writing very well, amazingly enough.

I do want to back up another comment I read before I bought and am glad I did...... when I contacted AT&T to set up the service and transfer my phone numbers, they DID NOT have my data plans ordered even though it was clearly written on my Amazon receipt. You DO want to make sure you ask them if it's on your plan, otherwise you will get a mountain of data use charges. But the plan really is your responsibility anyway, you should review it when you set it up regardless. I have been on the phone with AT&T several times since I got these phones and they have been hands-down the most helpful customer service I have ever had to deal with. Reviewed my prior usage with my old company (turns out they had just bought it so they had access to my records) and recommended the best plans for me, even told me the data plan I wanted was too expensive for what I was going to be doing and saved me about $30.00 a month!

Look - we don't run a business and probably won't have massive data sheets or reports passing through these phones. But to get a PDA/message center/MP3 player/internet surfing/video playing/GPS cell phone with good sound and great reception here in the mountains, for this money it can't be beat. In fact, the $400.00 store price is a steal for all I got, but I'm really glad I found it here for much less!! LOL!!



starsATT Service Disappoints!
I was really looking forward to this phone and all of its potential. I was replacing a verizon LG 9800 that I had purchased from Amazon 2 years ago. I was happy with Verizon, but really liked the features of the Tilt.

I received the phone within 2 days of ordering. Placed on charger and initalized phone after full charge. After playing with for couple minutes, put phone back on charger. Came back to phone and it had shut down and would not turn back on. The rest of this review is on the lack of service received. I cannot comment on the phone, other than being charged and then breaking, it was never used.

Well I figured I was just unlucky and had received a defective unit or battery. Called ATT service, after a few diagnostic checks they said I could return phone to any any authorized ATT dealer for replacement. Took phone to local ATT store and was promptly told, "you purchased this phone from Amazon, you must return it to them". Huh??? It says ATT on the front of the phone? Its an ATT phone!!! So I called ATT service and they explained the previous rep had made a mistake and I had to return phone to Amazon. I said fine, I'll return the phone, please cancel the service. Response: sorry sir you must contact Amazon to cancel your service. LoL, should have seen that one coming.

Is Amazon an authorized ATT dealer or a rogue retailer selling unauthorized ATT phones? I had heard that ATT service was not that good, but I really wanted this phone. It wasn't a big deal receiving a defective phone if the service replaced promptly. That's what service is there for, the unexpected. The fact that I purchased the phone from Amazon should not mean I cannot go to an authorized ATT store for service, but apparently to ATT it does. What if I am traveling on business and the phone breaks? Instead of being able to go to a ATT store, I'm stuck. That's not how it works with Verizon. I'm returning the phone and canceling the service. Not blaming Amazon or the phone, but the phone service provider has to stand behind a product it endorses regardless of where I purchase. That's "SERVICE".

As long time palm users, whom I had thus, collected many apps me wore trouble to form the switch Windows for knowledge, how much software I would lose (and to have up to the buy-back to straeuben itself!) Reliably enough do not wish developers straight ' give ' me a license, because I decided to switch platforms. It is an expensive switch and a time-consuming, which try, to find apps which correspond or exceed the palm one. The software, which is present, is definitely more limited for Windows, but on the other hand developers have palm approximately 10 years on their Windows counterparts. For example I had LARGE ONES apps for the grocer's shop buying (e.g. Jshopper), but trying, for Windows to find am close impossible that you let your old lists import as CSV of values they also many very good developers, that offer both to palm


starsHoly Recharging Nirvana!!!
Not surely, if it is mentioned in other reports, but this telephone has the singular characteristic of a Universalmini USB of slot to load and transfer to of of data to the PC!!! Possibly it is not singular, but I possessed no different one phone/pda/laptop/etc., used the one universal gate for the loading. The other reports explain to you that which a large telephone of this is for other reasons, but this characteristic must be praised. Every other cell telephone manufacturer must take note and enter into the "universal" business. Would this be how nice? - you buy a bundle of $.99 Miniusb cables. - you store it in your house, in office, in your car, in general Restrooms, in etc.. - you have now the ability to load all your mobile devices with mentioned cables of each possible laptop/pc with usb. They can also clog usb the cables into a standard device and putting version with the adapter, which came with that pda(the adapters, which also comes with the StandardiPOD work). - low constantly on batteries, while you travel to Switzerland? Run more rueber to the native Starbucks and slam you your device in laptop Hildas. Buy it a Frappuccino and you are golden! During the moment we must continue purchase overpriced, somewhat different energy chord adapter, because the manufacturers hate money dear and you. Everything except HTC and its wonderful inclination Smartphone. And now, back form too out with my new inclination...


starsAT&T Tilt - Poor Design
Purchasing this product was the worst cell phone decision I have ever made. First warning should have been, that AT&T doesn't offer insurance on their own product, therefore proving they don't believe in their phone. I owned the phone less than 2 weeks, when I accidentally knocked it off a table approxamately 12 inches off the floor. The touch screen cracked and not even the warranty covers the cracked screen, since they consider this abuse.


starsGreat Phone, bit of a learning curve
I was engaged palm a user and the straight LifeDrive used and waited, until better something came along. According to my opinion nothing has from the palm already. I had to somewhat finally receive, which would speak with Vista and I did not want to have really the whole my critical created apps ms. I bought the inclination to Widerwillig and became much by the flexibility, which surprises speed and the mobility. There is little one learn-circles, because its a telephone still another, but they cannot do palm as much, if into the time, it purifies you and melody to program it for somebody necessities to sit down. Bluetooth really everything in the distance and it work are a large to load music player with. It lets a carload lot of "goods" blow up and it tried to sell you to material each revolution but, if you can ignore that then this is an excellent telephone and a PDA. and it functions seamlessly with prospect.


starsat&t Tilt
An Excellent device. The hardware on this phone is excellent and is by far the fastest windows mobile device I have ever used. Phone feels solid, keyboard is nice and big for typing. Its good for people with huge thumbs. There are multiple ways to change options or access programs on the phone for ease of use.

However, the at&t Tilt comes loaded with a bunch of junk that you don't really need. For example, teleNAV. Its a bloated piece of junk that takes up a ton of memory. Delete it and get google maps, (its free and works perfectly with GPS).

Also, some software hacks may be needed to fully use all the features of this phone. For example, it would seem that HDSPA is not enabled by default. Some registry tweaks are needed to enable this. It is much faster than 3G and essential for those who tether their phone with their laptop for mobile internet.


starsNot a great "phone" with tons of great PDA options
this was my first attempt at an att phone. it had lots of neat options and the web worked well. Sadly as far as the "phone" funtions.. it doesnt work great. the sound was "windy" and it is very difficult to dial on the touch screen and a pain in the neck to open, turn and try to hit the right keys on the querty keyboard. I also found it difficult to look at the screen for extended periods of time and a friend who is a "techy" had said the same thing... I am going to the blackberry world instead. understand if you want only PDA functions its pretty cool. but you should get a separate cell phone for your calls. The man at the Att Store said its the biggest complaint about the phone.


starsLoving it but I got some questions
O.k. received the telephone, really orders to it on Walmart, which had it for $99 after post office in the discounts. Anyway I have week around with him for one approximately or thus... Feeling like a kid in an illustration I of the Suessigkeitspeichers each time somewhat out easily. Willeadmitt are 10 steps there, when there could be 5, but again you the case from him received, those steps seemed to disappear. The camera is acceptably, slowly first and I not really out represented, when its a photo make, which leads too all blurry Snapshots, which, I know real, has. It locked itself above on me yesterday to evening, which was the first night, which real, I had kept it on all night. Did not go a good thing, there I my telephone my warning use there and it not away from this morning. Blue and yellow light also flash all night reminded me of a lighthouse beacon in the darkness, again not another good thing, since I prefer it, in the dark one to sleep... can, which is down turned? Here the remainder my is asking... Thanks in advance the 1. Can a character indication begin you during with a call? I received, some however out, as one to explain can do not one(not answer send). 2. How you copy a document to another booklet, in particular MP3's. I may to be played certain things for different things as missed calls, texts, arriving email. The tones, which have it, are not, which I have in the understanding, but I not to seem can to copy a document more rueber. 3. Are there somehow you can the telephone at going black one prevent during with a call? 4. I went to the manual work mode for down load end email, and it does her nevertheless still independently, how I prevent that that happens again? Kat


starsThe Tilt combines the best of the other smartphones.
I investigated my new telephone possessed. I decide fair couldn t between the TMobile impact the TMobile wing and the bromine berry curve. I examined it endlessly in the memory and one behind the other tried 2 out at the same time, in order to compare speed and sichtbarmachungen with the Surfen of the net. I formed a list, which compares everyone with pro and Cons. I examined from reports for of Amazon cdnet pcmag etc.. My friends began themselves to ensure. But with each product there was missing something - one did not have only a 1 maintenance board camera, other one had a note screen, other one had limited also a keyboard. Which characteristics would I have to do outside? I extended my search to the non tmobile products. Chassis Voyager, other one. Then I started over


starsGreat phone if you're commited to getting it set up right
First I must emphasize: CONFIRM THEIR FEATURE/PLAN WITH ATT IMMEDIATLEY - they did not have the data transmission of news of plans on my account and I the InterNet etc. strongly for the last week struck. I designated customer service and her regulated the account and said that they would remove the loadings, if my calculation comes out. Up to the telephone you read Mary Jo SMI key report. I add that one had approximately week inside I a problem, in which the OS froze (this expected with windows). I had disconnection the telephone, after it would not load again. I had to remove the battery and replace her. Only then it would load. After I spent to attach probably only some hours of research on the different apps/hacks doing one week, over. I added only google diagrams up to now and vtap (that is large). I plan this high adjusting on spending of many more hours perfect. Out there there is a ton for the telephone. , after you google diagrams push, guarantee a further note, "use government inspection department" from the menu to preselect out - differently you receive a best assumption radius of your position from the cell telephone essays. This threw me away from the first day.


starsNice Phone but...
Took me a few weeks to finally get this phone (the first one Amazon decided to send via USPS w/o signature conf and it got lost in the mail...go figure). Been using it for about a month now and so far I really like it. I've been using the Treo line of phones for the last 5 years so this is definitely a bit of a change. I'm missing the ability to use the keyboard with one hand though. Since it's landscape you will most likely need to use both hands when typing. Scroll wheel is a nice added feature and this is definitely one of the fastest smartphones I've used. A vast improvement over the Treo700w. Kinda missing the Infrared but with bluetooth who really needs that? WiFi works seamlessly. The camera is a bit shaky but pictures are decent - could use a flash maybe. The camera interface is nice too. I was also able to install the nice HTC Home screen that gives you a large clock, weather, ringer profiles, etc. so I would recommend that. If you're lucky enough to live in AT&T's 3G market, you'll easily experience 2-3 times faster speeds than with Verizon's EVDO. Last but not least, I called AT&T customer service a few days after I opened the account and got an unlock code that succesfully unlocked my phone for use on any GSM network.

Word of caution if you're opening a new AT&T account with Amazon: Even though the phone is not available without a Data plan at Amazon (or AT&T for that matter), my AT&T account was not set up with the Data plan although I ordered it and my order confirmation clearly shows it. Unfortunately, I forgot to log into my AT&T account immediately to verify that it had been set up correctly so for the first day of use I ended up racking up $100 in data usage charges. Morale: Verify your plan features with AT&T before you use the phone.

Both and partners decided "to improve" (its defective telephone replacing), and both from us came to hate the way which they work on. We can carry our complete office data base with us, but you cannot preselect nothing with your finger, therefore you must take stlyus and during everyone its slide out of the "lower surface" or "" to the left mentioned, which is wrong TOTAL for a right-handed person. Then and hopeful we must represent straight it out, but the handy wheel on the side does not take you to your call history, but a short list of 411? The call history should not be also shortened, if I called the same person 9mal, should, which is 1 entry, with 9 in it? I also am not able ge$$$WESEN, out, how one adds to explain a number the directory? New its my assumption adds, became menu, but that is not it, and I did not out still represent it (as advanced IT chap, I should in the situation its in such a way not to explain from even somewhat that in a pair of minutes, but is not obvious). I must say that this unit was a complete disappointment. As EAGER more hater I must say apple that they really received the iphone right. To go to use, spirit-ill intuitive and pretty were simple much a high selection and device, which are the inclination surely not. However with one completely PC office, was it really not a choice for us. I resound also to another user notes by the fact against that the keyboard for me was pretty much useless. I that found the Aufschirm keyboard and the recording head to use in order to be faster. The keyboard forms a good impression in the memory, but I am constantly strike the wrong keys or the double, her by accident on a holperigen road - when only passenger operates. And I mention last that the fundamental telephone characteristics really lack. The contacts "button" shift constantly around dependent on, screen you are switched on which and which are approximately so unclear close/ok/dismiss/cancel/go back to elections, as you can receive. The keyboard block disappears to CONSTANT, and the screen turns off, as soon as your call is attached, the TOTAL PAIN in A ** is, if you must select an extension!!! Hello, is this like every other call that you form these days. Everything, which I can hope for, is can that I something third party often commodity receive, in order it better to form, otherwise one we will probably empty her. The InterNet and other characteristics are nice, but it must be a telephone first. The worst part is we read all reports, and any did not mention anybody from this. Good luck to whole it.... SEPP!


starsNot so fast
AT&T Tilt Smartphone (AT&T)
Basically it is HTC TYTN II phone model in AT&T version called AT&T Tilt Smartphone. There is a difference in hardware and price between these two phone models. Firstly Tilt is locked for AT&T service and lacks front camera what means that this smartphone will not work as videophone - so apparently AT&T is not prepared to provide such a service. There is substantial discount in price but whoever gets into this deal will return this discount to AT&T many times during 2-year service contract in monthly service fees. Which by the way will start at $80 plus a month to many times more depending on plan selection. In that sense while TYTN II as hardware is a revolutionary product, far exceeding any other smartphone model including Iphone in its advanced technology, when it comes to provided service not much can be expected except its high cost. Basically it will be valuable piece of equipment if the service is paid by employer for travelling, busy professionals which need constant access to internet. It is quite bad that this promising and so advanced technology will be undercut by unfortunate marketing decisions of AT&T regarding provided costly service with so many strings attached. There is a huge market for this type technology but not at any cost. I would hope that Sprint, Verizon or T-mobile will take a second look at this smartphone model and implement their own marketing strategy not following quite bad example of AT&T implementation. It does not seem to be difficult to do because they would meet huge market demand if they could offer variety of service plans starting with basic, competitive plan that could replace functionality of stationary, broadband access to internet which wouldn't cost more than traditional broadband modem access, assuming that provided customer service would be of that quality as t-mobile provides. Above it additional and optional phone plans would provide necessary revenues covering cost of implementation of this advanced technology, including videophone service. Otherwise as it stands now average user will have to wait many years before this communication technology becomes widely popular like currently cellular phones are. Technology is there, in addition common sense marketing is desparately needed.


starsLove my phone!
I love my new phone. It has so many capabilities; keeps me connected to everything I need. The best part is the Google Maps and GPS! It's helped me out of a few directionally challenged moments already! Only problem is the Gmail doesn't push to the phone and I find it erases the gmail before I can read it. I'll have to look into that. Also I am nervous the sliding mechanism will wear out, but only time will tell. Read all the reviews, they are all gleaming!


starsAt&t Tilt is a force beyond measures!!!!!
The telephone is entire!! largely! Amazon.com is amazing for forming this telephone afordable. I was in the market, which is after a telephone with note the screen and keyboard capabilty searches. I found it in on


starsIts Awkward to Do Common Tasks (texting, adjust brightness, volumes, pulling out stylus etc)
This phone was the the 3rd phone that I returned to ATT recently. I thought that the hardware felt very sturdy and well built. But I had major problems with the design of the phone as well as the placement of important buttons. This was the worst phone out of all 4 that I had. The Tilt feature is awful to use. You have to rotate it and open it just to hit an alphanumeric key. I understand that my distaste for opening the device to use it eliminates 95% of all cell phones sold (flip phones, sliders etc). And there was no obvious ringer volume control or silent mode outside of the settings menu. I also thought that after opening the phone it appeared not to be exactly horizontally parallel. And they put the stylus in the absolute worst spot. To sum it up, it took on average about 2 or 3 extra steps to accomplish common tasks with one of those tasks basically requiring the use both hands. However, the quality and deepness of the ring tones were the best of any phone I have used.


starsGreat phone
This is my second Windows mobile device. I had a Blackjack before this and it was a nice telephone in addition. I had to cause the telecommunications chap in my office to replace it because the screen above filled lints with bag, thus I received to replace it with an INCLINATION. The telephone is large. Everything runs very fast. The full dia. from keyboard is large, because the Blackjack had very small keys. It has a very large announcement, which turns 90 degrees, if you push from the keyboard. From the box the telephone already does nearly everything. It has government inspection department, full office mobile, central player etc.. I use government inspection department with Google diagrams, because I do not see the necessity to pay 10 dollar one month for the TelNav service. The telephone has WiFi in addition, but I used it not too much. I live the city inside completely covered in covering 3, therefore I have never the necessity to use Wifi however its a nice choice, in order to have, when I travel. I did some changes to it and it am now even better. I added a DivX player it. I turned the impact off discussion (postal administration) to the key and replaced him with a language preselection button key. Some people weight about the battery life, because it is a telephone 3G. Which you must carry out, any are the ATT 3G of telephones eat up the battery life. However, if you are the net there a small application search, which you can use, to turn off in order to permit you, 3G and to only use, that stores edge you tons of battery life and it you your direct impact email does not cause by prospect mobile received. Cons of the telephone. There are not too many. I do not register the pro becuase, which others already did this and which would like to know most people straight, what over the telephone is not so large. I miss to have an applicable number edition. If you strike the key of call, which the screen changes to a preselection button edition and you can select in such a way. I know that it is only question of the time, before I with it completely probably fûhle. It is also a little, which is heavier, than I expected. I went from a Razr to a Blackjack to an INCLINATION and it am a large difference. Now it is not like a holding of a clay brick to your ear, but you consider the difference the first times, which use you it. He did not come with a case. This was a little annoying. ATT maintains the telephone is $599. For $600 dollars they should throw in a case, which fits, this telephone instead of to find perfect must, which fits. Numbers during the writing. With my Blackjack I would know the NR. 4 straight hold and them down those into an announcement would insert. With the INCLINATION you must use fucntion the key. Plays - the telephone has a bundle of demos of the appropriate plays however very less more fully. I think that they should have set full plays of a pair at least on it. But this is not really a play telephone. TouchFlo screen - I do not think that it is really a cheat, but the screen or loss, if one uses your fingers instead of is struck recording head. Sometimes it functions large. Sometimes it not. I nearly always use the recording head, but it is not nice must him from that whole time whip.


starsThis phone is awesome...
I've had the phone for a week, after buying it over the phone direct from ATT. It was quick to set up and get going.
It synchs with both XP and Vista (though they use different synch packages).
It has a standard mini-usb port for charging and data transfer, so I can use existing cables.
Got the bluetooth going today after getting my Cardo S2 BT Stereo Headphones, not entirely seamless, the pairing worked first time but the audio wouldn't transfer. Had to delete the profile, turn everything off, reset the phone and do the pairing again.
The sound is crystal clear and the music gets paused when a call comes in, and then starts again when the call ends.
I spend several hours last weekend listening to streamed XM radio over wi-fi network within the house and the signal did not drop once.
Still working on the voice-dial!
Windows Mobile 6 professional is pretty slick, and apart from an occasional slowness works well.
The GPS is great and works with both Windows Live and Google Maps, so don't pay for the TeleNav, unless you want all the bells and whistles.
All in all a spectacular phone, highly recommended.


stars8925 versus the 8525
I had the 8525 before, and have kept it as a 2nd phone. It was perfect except it was short on RAM for my large phone database linked to Act!. The 8925 more than makes up for it with double the ram. But several differences are worth pointing out:
- In making it a slicker looking phone the 8925 lost all the wonderful side buttons on the 8525, and some of those retained are so flat against the side that they are hard to press - the phone start/stop buttons are smaller and much harder to read and locate. I keep missing calls because I can't find them. The wonderful buttons at the top of the 8525 are removed, probably because when you pulled the phone out of your pocketone would frequently find you'd been on the internet draining your battey. The upside was that they were very easy to find with your fingers without having to look. The AT&T forums are always quite helpful and I had found a hacker code there to deactivate the Push To Talk button on the 8525 and reprogram it to another function. Hopefully someone will do something similar for the 8925. Reprograming the Push to Talk button on the 8525 gave me the critical buttons I wanted: email / Internet / camera / voice speed dial/ and data connection. On the 8925 I'm 2 buttons short
- I have been keeping the 8525 and 8925 side to side to test the antennas, as I am in a marginal coverage area. They are close but the 8525 wins in my view.
- The keyboard on the 8925 is perhaps easier to use, but I liked the feel of typing on the 8525 better.
- The 8525's deafening start up AT&T flash screen is now at an acceptable level.
- the 8525 batteries don't work on the 8925. The charger stand does, but you can't charge the spare battery on the old stand, so count on another $100-150 more in accessory costs.
- the CNET interview talked about a tinny speaker. Tip: the speaker is on the back. turn it over and the sound is much better. It gets tinny at top volume but it also is louder than the 8525. Put on the earphones or use bluetooth to run it through your car speakers and the sound quality is just great. (buy a mini-usb to traditional MP3 player converter on the internet).
- it has a plug on the back to attach an external GPS. The 8925 has an internal GPS but it only works with the $10/month AT&T system - a bit of a bummer for those who don't like to carry around multiple gadgets.

Last, I recommend buying a mini-USB plug headset with the phone. I could not find them at local stores and had to order it on the internet.

Despite it's plusses and minusses, the additional RAM is worth it. I just love this phone!


starsSome problems not waking up
I have had my Tilt for 2 days now, and have experienced the "won't wake up" problem three times already. The last time it happened, I tested to see if it could receive a call - and it could not. I pulled the battery and I'm up and going again. So far, I'm disappointed and thinking about going back to my 8125.

I'm running this version:
ROM: 1.57.502.2
ROM Date: 8/25/2007
Radio: 1.27.12.11
Protocol: 22.45.88.07H


Update:
After some experimenting, it seems that the bug I was experiencing is caused by the new Windows Live Search. I think there is a problem with the way it handles the device going to sleep. Until this is fixed, Tilt users should either not use Windows Live Search, or at least make sure they Exit that application before the device goes to sleep.


stars Audio "Skipping" Music Playback
I had my Tilt for almost a month. The biggest compliant I have is the constant audio "skipping"AT&T Tilt Smartphone (AT&T) while playing MP3 music. There is manufacturer design flaw with the Tilt. I read AT&T forum and other Tilt owners experiencing the same problem. If playing back music is IMPORTANT don't buy this phone. Buy the Apple ITouch for music playback.

Camera is OK, GPS is good, Mobile 6 is good.

Audiophile,

steve


starsOverpriced
Astronomical price. I am recommended to wait, until the price comes down. The double rate of a bromine berry curve from ON and the T with many of the same characteristics.


starsPitiful compared to Palm OS
ON


starsGreat Phone!
There are so many great, lengthy reviews about this phone already, I'll keep this one short and simple.

It's a great phone. And if you have an 8125 or 8525, then it's time to upgrade.

If you're still carying a PDA and a cell phone, then this is the phone for you. All in one, with GPS, a decent music player, a good camera, and a great operating system (WM6).

A quick tip: don't bother with the $10/mo TomTom service. Download the free Microsoft Live Search or Google Maps applications which both work perfectly with this device's built-in GPS.


starsThis phone has everything! Forget the iPhone
I was between IP-HONE and the inclination. I am, thus gladly went I with the inclination IP-HONE pro: Web browser - the safari data base search routine on IP-HONE is nice. They know opera for the inclination and grazing very something similar to IP-HONE to keep received, but it is not, quite as nice, although it IP-HONE faster than downloadet, if you are in a range 3G. A large agreement does not use much for me, there I not at my telephone surfe, but I my telephone as modem for my laptop - see to laptop to limit down. Material headphone putting version - there is an adapter for the inclination, but she is not contained. I do not use my telephone as my music player somehow I have ipod. 8GB is not enough for me. Inclination pro: Established in government inspection department, largely for Google of diagrams and Microsoft phase search. Really you know appearance, where you are and you look for things close you. I travel much and the government inspection department take a minute or two, in order to find you, if you shift large distances. As soon as it is aquired you once in a city, it normally like 5-10 seconds is. I am not a large fan of telenav and will not my telephone as my primary government inspection department for around drive to use to want. There is a program, which you can buy, which becomes secretly text you the government inspection departments coordinates of your telephone, if someone steals it. 3. A party apps - tons and tons, inclusively apps, which form your inclination view and as IP-HONE function. Many apps are free. Camera 3MP - is really good for a camera telephone rather. I have emailed pics, around peoples and them it came from my telephone surprised. 3G - ehrfuerchtig. This telephone is fast in the net 3G. Files/attachments to downloaden is a Schnaepper. Laptop-limit - the unlimited data plan is A must, if you travel. Many people do not know that you can use your telephone as modem for your laptop. Can you not with IP-HONE. I do not pay $10-15 one day more for InterNet in the hotels. If I am in a range 3G, I compute average over speed of 700-900kbps, very fast. Fair USB to your laptop and switch that for InterNet parts on. Airports, hotels, withdraw inside from the driving cab, city park. And your telephone charges of the laptop the entire time. Material keyboard - I tried the iphone keyboard. I have large hands and large fingers. It did not work on well for me, evenly with the ' intelligent kind ' or whatever iphone that autocorrect has. They do not know really autocorrect network addresses or usernames/passwords. A material keyboard to have is nice. Replace the battery - cannot on IP-HONE do. I estimate good that you can send it to the apple. Ascending memory - go more largely than 8GB. Take MicroSD maps. I believe up to the support 32GB.


starsNot just the iPhone, but the Blackberry killer...
Everyone cross talks, like this IP-HONE murderers... is and I any longer to agree could - for the business person. However which does not mention anybody, it is that this is also the bromine berry murderer. It is larger than a bead, but you cannot open and draw up a 3G BB received... still for MSAKTEN! For this do approximately 80% of, what I mean laptop... open and it goes to 90%, if I buy one bluetooth to keyboard. I use it for business apps and grass, and even reads. I actually communicated a report for this emphasizing product the fact that I approximately 60 books with me in MSLESERFORMAT... carry and means Amazon report killed. I estimate that they did not wish people measured value that they did not have to buy an engaged reader, if they bought the right telephone! It left I features to us, read books, play plays and, OH- yeah, interface with bromine berry operator of my company for PIM and email impact! Crucial bag the accessory equipment... and the telephone quality is large with headphone, which is outstanding with tied headphone however an only pretty good with on board microphone. UPDATE: O.k., I used the inclination now for approximately 5 months. My report remains the same! This requires, how most systems, a ms OS lets which run, pinching few. However as soon as pinching that is done, carry out that you hold a minicomputer instead of straight another telephone. 3G and H net support themselves... and can be easily limited. BB attach support - finally a 3G BB government inspection department, which connects iGuidance also into google diagrams, IN MSPHASENDIAGRAMMEN, in TeleNav and, in my case. They can attach standard headphones to the inclination..., but you must buy their own steckfassung - which is the largest cheat, whom, I have. Actually if we could arrange ms straight, WM6 to pinch a little more better, we would be in the business....


starsA great full featured phone
It's the phone I was waiting for. It has everything you could imagine with room for expansion and when new applications come out this phone will be able to run them. The GPS works well with google maps. The wi-fi is awesome and the service is stellar as well. I would recommend this phone to anyone who needs an e mail device as well as data access while on the road. I give props to HTC for making this great device.


starsHas More than Most Need, but Isn't it Great to Have it ALL!
(NOTE: It has been almost two months since I posted this review and I wanted to add a couple of comments. First, I like this phone even better than I did two months ago. The "3G" connection you get with AT&T/Cingular is faster (for data) and clearer (for voice) than land lines sometimes. I have purchased as an auxiliary charger/auto adapter one from Orion Products (http://www.amazon.com/Tilt-Retractable-Synch-Charge-Travel/dp/B000X9PLHK/ref=cm_cr-mr-title) that is less expensive and great for traveling. Speaking of Orion Products, they have this aircraft aluminum case that I use, just in case I might drop this bugger, and it is really nice. The case comes in black or silver. With the case on and closed, you can still select programs, turn on and off Bluetooth, etc., very easily. Whether you get an additional case, as I've done, or not, I'd suggest you play around with the Navigation controller at the bottom because it will save you several steps in going from one program to another. The Mobile 6 software, and how it is configured, is really great. When you select your contracts, you get to choose how you want to connect to them (call, text, E-mail, E-mail2, etc.), and it shows your most recent call. Voice commands can be assigned to a contract, a program (like Excel), practically anything. I have yet to have a voice command I assigned not immediately go to the right person or program. Speaking of Excel, when I say, "Excel," it goes to Excel and shows me all the Excel files I have on the main memory AND the memory card, which didn't happen with my previous PDA/Smartphone. Oh, and the claim about being able to pair up to 6 Bluetooth devices. Yes, you can. I have mine paired to my house cordless phone system (in addition to my car's audio system), which makes life easier around the house because my Tilt is channeled through the six extensions I have at home, and I don't have to carry both when I'm working out in the yard (also, I can conference call, etc. If you're interested in this feature, be sure to read my review of my AT&T Cordless phone. Bottom line: would I have purchased this phone again? YES!)

Before I begin, let me say that I agree with everything Ms. Sminkey says in her review of the AT&T Tilt Smartphone, and she's done a lot more with it that I have, at this point, but I have three bits of advice that anyone who buys this phone needs to know:

1) If one of the main reasons you use a "smartphone" for is to make your life easier by keeping your contact information there in the palm of your hands, then you need to know that to synchronize your data between Outlook (I use Outlook 2007) and your AT&T Tilt) you need to do the following. Once you have installed ActveSync: a) Launch Active Sync, Go to the "Tools," select "Security" and uncheck the box. or b) You can also select "Options" and then select "Security" and uncheck the box. I have posted two images under "customer images" that can be viewed at the top of this product's web page that show how to do this. When I installed ActiveSync, it had this box checked and none of my Outlook contact's information was uploaded. This is a problem the AT&T tech support people did not know about (BTW, I first had this problem with a Treo 750 that I bought a day earlier. The AT&T folks referred me to Palm's folks, who said they couldn't help me with AT&T's version of the Treo... which is about normal in this world.)

2) I bought my AT&T Tilt at an AT&T Store in Alabama. The price they have here is much cheaper than what I paid, but they had problems with getting me a case. So, I kept the case I had with the Treo 750 (UPC is 8-8806-380-607-0), which according to AT&T's website is actually the case they recommend for it, but let me tell you, it could be better because it needs a hole to push the phone "up" and out so you can easily answer a call. There is a Palm case sold on Amazon that "looks" like it would do. It is Palm One Treo 700 / 650 Pouch Leather Case. Other cases that are similar in design have poorer reviews and their snap or magnet clasp scratch the phone after a few months of use. I will probably have my friend down at the leather shop cut a hole in mine and stitch around the hole, but most folks probably don't know someone who can do this.

3) Setting-up the Bluetooth for the phone for my car's stereo link was very easy, but turning it on was a little different for this pocket version of Windows, since there weren't "on" and "off" buttons for Bluetooth on the main (today) screen. Using "Start," then selecting "Bluetooth Manager," then selecting "on" is the easiest, but you can also use "Start," select "Settings," then the "Connections" tab at the bottom, and select "Wireless Connections," and tapping the Bluetooth screen (it is also a good idea to occasionally look at "Wireless Connections" just to make sure you don't have any connection on that you don't want on, and thereby preventing a premature low battery condition.

While the [...] review goes into the features, here's a listing from the AT&T site that gives you more of a checklist of features:

Talk and send data simultaneously and combine up to six Bluetooth® wireless pairings at once.

The AT&T Tilt(TM) is loaded with features including a 3 MP camera, music player,

Telenav GPS Navigator(TM) support, and integrated Wi-Fi.

Overall, this is a great phone, and quite frankly, an even better computer. I have installed a 2 GB mini-SD card. It doesn't have an earphone jack or stereo speakers but with the ability to have up to 6 Bluetooth pairings, you probably don't need them.








starsForget the iPhone, this is the killer smartphone to get!
I was enough lucky to hear that this telephone had been released fair days, after I had bought the 8525, in order to replace a preceding broken telephone. It seemed, something disorders also ON give
