And HTC, maker of the 8525 and several variants sold under other brand names tweaked the 8125 in just the right ways to make the 8525 a worthy successor. For those of you who are interested in import GSM phones, we've also gotten our hands on the HTC TyTN from reputable importer Dynamism.com and will include information on that version as well in our review. That said, the 8525 and TyTN are nearly identical and HTC Hermes variants (the code name for the 8525 and its brethren) do not vary in keyboard and casing design as much as the WIZA100 and WIZA200 HTC Wizard variants did."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/parekh-20061113-MTR8525.jpg" /><br /><br />MobileTechReview puts out yet another excellent review on the Cingular 8525; unlike a lot of other reviews, this one compares it to the HTC TyTN. I do have to say, the button arrangement on the front TyTN looks a lot better. That and the front-facing cam aside, they're nearly identical, and in the opinion of Lisa Gade, both are winners when it comes to processor, wireless speed (the latter, of course, is subject to HSDPA coverage where you live), and shockingly, the camera. If you've been interested in the 8525, be sure to check this review out.
