A big thank-you goes to Hutchison Austria for providing us with a loaner of their version HTC Touch 3G!
HTC’s Touch 3G can be considered the successor to the original (and insanely successful) HTC Touch: while devices like the Touch Diamond used the Touch brand, they had very little in common with the original model. But can the 3G stack up?
Hutchison has traditionally been very discreet when it came to branding their high-end smartphones. This rule has also been observed with the very small box of the Touch 3G – it is free of any visible branding:

Charging is accomplished via a wallwart, which has a standard USB port. The data cable then is plugged into the wallwart:

Some versions seem to ship with a headset:

Finally, a few shots of the accompanying paperwork:

In the end, there is nothing to dislike about the Touch 3G’s packaging (except maybe for the lack of wallwarts – but what do you expect for this amount of $$$).
Stay tuned for further info – this review continues soon!
