Summary

  • The HP iPAQ rw6815 features a slightly smaller 2.7-inch TFT resistive touchscreen with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, while the HTC Touch has a 2.8-inch display of the same resolution, resulting in a marginally lower pixel density.
  • In terms of performance, the iPAQ is powered by a 416 MHz Intel PXA272 CPU compared to the 200 MHz ARM926EJ-S in the HTC Touch, which may offer better responsiveness.
  • Both devices have a 2 MP rear camera, but neither has optical image stabilization or a front-facing camera.
  • The iPAQ has a larger battery capacity of 1530 mAh versus the 1100 mAh in the HTC Touch, potentially providing longer usage time.
  • The iPAQ runs on Windows Mobile 5.0, while the HTC Touch operates on Windows Mobile 6.0, which may offer a more refined software experience.
  • Build quality favors the HTC Touch with a lighter weight and slimmer profile compared to the bulkier iPAQ.
