You’ve seen it in action now for some HTC Magic glamor shots.

The guys at Crave / CNET have compiled their best shots of the HTC Magic with some insightful commentary underneath each shot.

Main differences between the G1 & HTC Magic?

Unlike the G1, the Magic doesn’t feature a keyboard, instead relying on a very responsive touchscreen. It’s a lot smaller than the G1 and feels really good in the hand. It also looks much better, in our opinion. The curved edges and shiny finish give it an elegant appearance and feel, and we can’t wait to get hold of one for longer time back in the UK.

I wonder how much it cost for T-Mobile to launch the HTC Dream as T-Mobile G1? Seems like Vodafone wasn’t willing to pay that price to call it Vodafone G2…

Following from our post yesterday on the HTC Magic, here’s a video by MobileBurn that gives us a view of how the HTC Magic copes with video recording and the general size of the G2 phone. Particularly impressed by the latter – slimmer design than the G1 is sure to attract more, particularly ladies.

Take note that it’s running pre-production firmware which means that it’s still open to change before it officially hits the shelves.

Other than the media phone, HTC Touch HD, the company saw fit to announce two more phones on the very same day. Said phones are the colorful HTC Touch 3G and the simpler, more basic HTC Touch Viva. Both utilize TouchFLO 3D interface and both sport 2.8 inch QVGA touch screen displays.

Who knew? When the HTC Touch Diamond was first seen, we’ve all understood that the name came from the crystal cut design of the phone casing. But for those who’d like the smartphone yet don’t really have the propensity for similar designs, there’s another option by the name of HTC Victor.

Hey, remember the three keypads of the HTC Touch Diamond? I’m sure there are many of us who can’t afford this touch phone when it comes out. What if there’s a way to simulate the HTC Touch Diamond on another phone? Granted you can’t exactly simulate everything, but at least you can now have HTC Touch Diamond’s three soft keyboards on your other phones.
