When it comes to design, this smart phone is very similar to the first TyTN but it is more solid and it brings a lot of changes. The HTC TyTN II is neither small nor ultra-slim, having a case made of resistant plastic with 112 x 59 x 19 mm in dimensions and 190 grams in weight. With a rubber-non-slippery back, rounded edges and a sliding spring-assisted mechanism, this mobile phone feels very comfortable in the hand and it is easy to use. If you slide the display, a full QWERTY keyboard will be revealed. Anyway, from the front side, it looks exactly like a regular smart phone, having a 2.8 inch touch screen, a secondary camera for video-calls and some navigation keys placed below the display.

These navigation keys include a D-pad, two soft keys, an OK button, a Message, a Windows and an Internet Explorer button plus the classic Call and End keys. On the left side you will find a wheel key (similar with that wheel key used on old Ericsson models) and a secondary OK button. These two keys help you to use this smart phone with one hand. Above them, a Voice Command button is placed. On the right side you will find the Power On/off key, a camera shutter and a stylus pen slot. On the bottom part, the HTC TyTN II has only a miniUSB port and a microSD card slot.
The 2.8 inch TFT touch screen has a native resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, the same resolution that other smart phones have. It supports 65K colors and handwriting recognition. Even if this display is not the best touch screen used on a smart phone ever, it is still very responsive and you will get a great quality of colors. For more accuracy, you can use the stylus pen which comes with this smart phone.
In photographic terms, the HTC TyTN II comes with an integrated 3.15 Megapixel camera which is capable of taking photos at a maximum resolution of 2048x1536 pixels and record clips with a speed of 30 fps. Because it lacks a flash, this camera can be useless if you want to take photos at night or if you are in a poorly lit room. The QWERTY keyboard is excellent. With 41 keys, including a Fn key, a Wi-Fi key and a My Documents key, this keyboard is very useful if you are a fast writer. The keys are large and offer positive feedback when you press them.

Powered by a Qualcomm MSM7200 400 MHz processor and 128 MB of RAM memory, this smart phone is faster than his predecessor. The internal memory is a bit low, having only 256 MB of free space. But if you want more, you can extend it up to 8 GB with a microSD card. For other connectivity modes, the HTC TyTN II has Wi-Fi, GPS, miniUSB, Bluetooth and supports GPRS, EDGE and 3G networks. The standard Li-Pol 1350 mAh battery has enough power to keep this smart phone up for 6 hours of conversations and up to 400 hours in standby mode. Anyway, because in our days new smart phones appear in every day, this awesome smart phone keeps the price at a low level. It costs only $249, a half-price of, for example, Nokia N97.
