Short Review
- The HTC Touch Cruise 09 features a compact design with dimensions of 102 x 53.5 x 14.5 mm and weighs 103g, making it portable but somewhat thick.
- Its 2.8-inch TFT resistive touchscreen offers a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, which results in a pixel density of approximately 143 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking vibrancy.
- Powered by a Qualcomm MSM7225 Snapdragon S1 chipset and a 528 MHz ARM 11 CPU, the performance is adequate for its time, though limited by the 256MB RAM.
- The rear camera is 3.15 MP, capable of video recording but lacks optical image stabilization and a front camera for selfies.
- The 1100 mAh battery provides basic longevity but does not support fast or wireless charging.
- Running on Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, the software experience is dated and may not support modern applications.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
- The device does not have stereo speakers or a headphone jack, limiting audio options.
- Overall, the HTC Touch Cruise 09 is a basic smartphone with essential features but falls short in performance and modern usability.
- Its design and build quality are functional, but it may not meet the expectations of contemporary users.
