Includes Sprint WWAN; strong performance for a UMPC; multitude of input options; display toggles between two resolutions; sliding display reveals QWERTY keyboard; useful dashboard and Origami Experience software.
Far too expensive; short battery life when running Windows; tiny keyboard makes typing awkward; unremovable leather folio; loud fan.
The HTC Shifts small size raises some usability issues, and its battery life doesnt match what wed expect from such a portable device. However, our primary complaint about the Shift is its remarkably high price.

Push e-mail. Can shift between two operating systems. Multiple wireless options. Svelte design. Convertible tablet. QWERTY keyboard. Slim and light.
Lacks voice capabilities. Slow UMPC parts. Touch screen is not as nice as a Wacom-enabled screen. Too expensive. Uncomfortable stylus. Wi-Fi throughput was less than spectacular. RAM is not upgradable.
The HTC Shift is part smartphone, part tablet, and part laptop, but it doesnt really excel as any of those things....
Sharp and responsive touchscreen, Can access push e-mail without booting Windows, Excellent Origami 2.0 Web browser, Built-in EV-DO

Sammanfattning: UMPCs (ultra mobile PCs) have been around for 2 years or so in the relative mainstream. Long enough that weve seen several very different designs from the tiny OQO to the sleek slider Sony Vaio UX to those that resemble traditional handhelds sans key...
Sammanfattning: Besides the long list of people that waited and waited for the HTC Shift to finally be released, any BGR reader will know our own personal fascination with it. Considering how much we’ve craved, wished, hoped, and wanted, we’re going to take you into a...

Tons, tons and tons of features ,More like a computer than a phone ,Large, easy to use keyboard ,
Terrible camera ,Runs Windows Vista ,Screen resolution too small for some ,
The HTC Shift is a unique device, as there still aren’t too many UMPCs floating around in the market. This is the perfect device for the business traveler who essentially wants a very small laptop or the tech junkie who needs to have every gadget an...
