										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Did you know that there are at least 5 unique versions of the HTC Touch Pro2? The original HTC design, then each of the 4 major U.S. Carrier-branded versions. Below is an exterior comparison of the HTC Touch Pro2 (codename:  Rhodium) and how each U.S. Carrier has left its own unique mark on the  appearance.</p>
<p>As a baseline, presented is the stock (unlocked, GSM) HTC Touch Pro2  straight from HTC. This is how the device was originally drawn out by  the designers at HTC.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.thebestdigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/htc-touch-pro2-03.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></p>
<p><span id="more-102"></span></p>
<p>FRONT- As you can see, there is a small &#8216;HTC&#8217; logo centered on the top  of the device for the front, along with the screen and the chrome sides.</p>
<p>BACK- On the back, there is silver text that says &#8216;HTC Touch Pro2&#8217; on  the brushed aluminum back and a white outer surrounding edge.</p>
<p><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" style="border: 0pt none" src="https://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/02/r-per02.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="560" height="483" /></p>
<p>KEYBOARD- For the slide-out keyboard, there are silver keys on a brushed  aluminum backing. Standard QWERTY keyboard.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline"><strong>T-Mobile Touch Pro2</strong></span></p>
<p><strong> </strong><img decoding="async" src="https://images.intomobile.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/htc-touch-pro2-tmobile-2.gif" border="0" alt="" /></p>
<p>FRONT- For the front of the device, T-Mobile has the now ubiquitous  Carrier branding on the left upper side and the HTC logo on the right.  For the sides, T-Mobile has opted to use a graphite-like pastel.</p>
<p>KEYBOARD- T-Mobile has moved away from the silver and white mixture that  HTC used and has black keys on a dark gray backing, with silver sides.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.wirefly.com/images/phones/58248_z3.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></p>
<p>BACK- For the back of the device, T-Mobile has had their own battery  cover designed. There is a dark silver speaker grate with a bright  silver design around the Camera Lens and Speaker phone button, with text  stating &#8216;3.2 Mega Pixel&#8217;.  On the upper half, there is a black box. At  the bottom there is a Fav 5 image.</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">AT&amp;T TILT 2 (Touch Pro2)</span></strong></p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadgetmobile.com/media/2009/08/att-touch-pro2-itw-1.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></p>
<p>FRONT- From what can be gleaned from the above image, the AT&amp;T model  has a chrome outer housing with the standard screen. If you look  closely, you will be able to see a AT&amp;T branding logo on the upper right of the device and the HTC logo on the upper left.</p>
<p>*Interesting tidbit- Based on the image above, it is sporting WM 6.5,  unlike any other carrier device, which have all been seen running WM  6.1. It appears to be the lock screen for WM 6.5.</p>
<p>KEYBOARD- AT&amp;T has gone with white keys set against a black  backplate, but unlike the other 3 U.S. carriers, has gone without a  dedicated number pad, instead opting for a numeric keypad and blue Fn  keys.</p>
<p>BACK- Without any images surfacing of the back battery cover for the  AT&amp;T Tilt 2, we can only guess at what it will look like. This post  will be updated as soon as more information becomes available.</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">Verizon Touch Pro2</span></strong></p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.wmexperts.com/sites/wmexperts.com/files/articleimages/Phil%20Nickinson/2009/09/Verizon%20TP2.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></p>
<p>FRONT- Verizon has placed their well-known logo front  and center at the top, and  towards the bottom, below the Zoom Bar, sits  the HTC logo. Everything is swathed in a black fashion.</p>
<p>KEYBOARD- Standard black keys on a light gray back plate and black  sides. Completely opposite of the unlocked HTC device.</p>
<p>BACK- The outer half of the device is a matte silver and the inner half  of the battery cover lies a speaker grate with lots of little holes  running from the camera lens to almost the bottom. Right below the  Speaker phone button, there is &#8216;3.2&#8217; text in silver and mid way lies  another, smaller, HTC logo. On the bottom half of the black speaker  grate there lies a Map of the World (alluding to the fact that this  device is a world phone).</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">SPRINT TOUCH PRO2</span></strong></p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.wmexperts.com/sites/wmexperts.com/files/articleimages/Phil%20Nickinson/2009/08/thumb_350_Touch_Pro_2_front_view_.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></p>
<p>FRONT- Upper left there is a Sprint logo and across from it there is a  HTC logo. The sides are crafted in a gray shade.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.wmexperts.com/sites/wmexperts.com/files/articleimages/Phil%20Nickinson/2009/08/thumb_450_touch_pro_2_open_keyboard.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></p>
<p>KEYBOARD-  For the keyboard, Sprint has opted for black keys on a dark  gray backing, with black sides.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.new-cell-phones.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/htc-touch-pro2-sprint-02.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></p>
<p>BACK- By far the most far reaching redesign, Sprint has opted for a  brownish covering. Center and towards the bottom, there is a HTC logo,  midway and towards away from the volume rockers is &#8216;3.2 Mega Pixel&#8217;.  What I can only describe as a reverse block cut out design envelops the  upper half of the battery cover. It goes around the Camera Lens/ Speaker  Button, and tapers down to the bottom of the cover.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline"><strong>Hardware differences- </strong></span></p>
<p>Hardware wise, there are 3 major differences (besides exterior  components) to be found.</p>
<p>Cellular Technology supported-</p>
<p>The Sprint and Verizon models are CDMA and the T-Mobile/AT&amp;T are  GSM. Verizon/Sprint both offer EVDO Rev A support while T-Mobile and  AT&amp;T have support for their HSPA 3G services. Also, Sprint/Verizon  have decided to offer their phones with Quadband GSM support, meaning  that these devices can be used worldwide using a SIM card.</p>
<p>3.5 MM Headphone Jack-</p>
<p>Second major difference is that both Sprint and Verizon have included a  3.5 MM headphone jack while T-Mobile has omitted this feature. This  allows any user to plug in their favorite pair of headphones while any  T-Mobile user has to use the included USB dongle to use a 3.5 MM set of  headphones. The AT&amp;T device is currently unknown if in possession of  a 3.5 MM Headphone jack.</p>
<p>CPU/Other-</p>
<p>Any user of a Touch Pro or Diamond will feel right at home when it comes   to hardware muscle. All carrier branded phones have made no major  chipset-wise upgrades. The GSM models (T-Mobile/AT&amp;T) have the  well-known Qualcomm® MSM7200A<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> CPU, clocked at 528 MHz. The CDMA models  (Sprint/Verizon) have upgraded to the Qualcomm® MSM7600<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> chipset. Other  than the inclusion of Quadband GSM support, this appears to be the same  basic CPU used in the CDMA Touch Pro and Diamond, as the clock speed of  528 MHz is the same.</p>
<p>Other than the above mentioned differences, the following specs are the  same for all 3 devices.</p>

</table>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">Overall-</span></strong></p>
<p>In relation to the original design laid out by HTC, all three carrier&#8217;s  have made their own unique contributions for their own network. For  T-Mobile, removal of the 3.5 MM headphone jack is the biggest loss for  any customer, while Sprint users will work with a back battery cover  that is unlike anything else out there. AT&amp;T (new name not  withstanding) has removed the user-friendly dedicated numeric key row  and has reverted back to using a numeric keypad accessed by first  pressing the Fn button. Customers of Verizon have the device that has  stayed mostly true to the aspirations of HTC when they first went out to  design this cellular device.</p>
