So far, few HTC Diamond reviews from US have provided strong negative feedback especially in the areas of TouchFLO 3D performance, battery life and the audio quality, while the reviews from Europe are in general positive.

Ed Hardy from Brighthand, the US based site  just posted his take. Beside few minor complains about the landscape/portrait switching does not applicable to most apps other than audio/video playback and the shiny screen is fingerprint magnet. Ed mentions “I’m pleased with the new UI that HTC has created. It’s simple to understand, fast, and easy to use”

Ed was testing  device that is not ready for the 3G US market, instead, he tested with the 2.5G (Edge) with satisfactory results. You can read the whole review HERE! or click on the next tab for the TouchFLO 3D interface “real time” video. Judge for yourself the response time.
