HTC P4350

The P4350 is designed to perfection!! The phone is similar to the HTC Wizard but offers improvements in every form. The P4350 is almost half the thickness of the Wizard and the material is a lot more solid which does not feel like plastic.

Many people who have used the HTC Wizard have found that when using the function and shift buttons on the keyboard you make mistakes. This is especially true when typing passwords because you cannot see what you’re typing instead you see ******. On the P4350 HTC has included two small blue LED’s on the top left of the keyboard which tell you whether or not the function or shift buttons are on/off. These indicators help a lot especially when typing in passwords.

The keyboard slider is spring loaded and similar to ordinary slider phones. This is an excellent feature and has not yet been seen on PPC keyboard sliders. The slider on the P4350 is a bit different from the Wizard because it slides out to the left. There is both a positive and negative to the new slider direction. The positive is that the phone is easier to navigate with your left thumb on the d pad and holding the stylus with your right. The negative is that when the keyboard is open the stylus is located on the bottom left which is awkward pulling out.

The Wizard had it’s numeric keys on the top row of the keyboard and was awkward when dialing. The P4350 is similar to the HTC TyTN/ Cingular 8525 and has its numeric keypad setup like an ordinary phone. The P4350’s keyboard also has shortcuts for the Comm Manager and file manager.
