The good:

The bad:
No substantial internal storage
No physical keypad
Charging port doubles as headphone socket
The Touch 3G, on the surface, is a 3G version of the original Touch, but several things make it much better. It uses Windows 6.1 instead of 6, plus HTC's updated Touch 2D system. This was first seen on the disappointing Touch Diamond - a feature-packed phone that was too slow and unresponsive.
A potentially useful feature is a super-simple modem function that lets you plug it into a computer's USB port to connect to the internet - usually a right kerfuffle.
It's still faster to type on phones with keyboards, but the features are packed in, it's fun to use, the 71mm screen feels big on such a small (96g) phone and the price is reasonable.
Design
The Touch 3G is a very tidy package. Below the 2.8-inch touchscreen display is a trio of razor thin mechanical keys: start and end call buttons and a five-way nav keypad. For those struggling with the touchscreen navigation, HTC have included a toothpick-sized stylus sheathed on the top right of the handset. On the back is a flashless 3.2-megapixel camera and a micro USB port is located on the bottom edge. The lower half of the handset is tapered ever-so slightly, helping the phone to nestle comfortably in your palm.
Features
Running on Windows Mobile 6.1, the Touch 3G offers a range of business applications, with support for MS Exchange, push email, mobile versions of MS Word, Excel and Powerpoint, a PDF reader, plus a few convenient touches like threaded SMS messaging.
Out of the box the Touch 3G shares 256MB of memory between applications and free space for us to store music, photos and documents. It supports MicroSD expandable memory with a reader slot located under the battery cover.
Its 2.8-inch screen is a decent size for watching YouTube videos, but the mini-USB port doubling as a headphone port is one of our pet peeves. Not only does this mean you can't charge the phone and use headphones at the same time, but it also means you're stuck with the using the headphones in the box rather than your favourite cans. It's not really intended as a media player, and those looking for the best multimedia experience may want to wait for the release of the Touch HD in Q1 of 2009.
Camera
The HTC Touch 3G has a 3.15MP module strapped to it. The phone doesn't have any light assistance hence night mode and low lit images didn't have much support. Overall the quality is good enough from a simple 3MP camera in well-lit conditions. Video quality is strictly average.
Battery Life
The HTC Touch 3G has an 1100mAh battery. The phone has been optimized to perform under 3G network. Hence under 2G network it was able to perform quite well. The phone provided with a little over two days of battery backup easily. Two days consisted of around 2.5 hours of talktime and 2-3 hours of music daily. Add to that some Wi-Fi usage coupled with GRPS usage of about 20-25 minutes, the phone ran pretty fine. All this translates to a good battery life.
