ok, I need to know which one is better...

both have WiFi, both have camera...except one is 2MP and the other is 1.3MP...I am not a big fan of the extra 0.7MP as I have an 8MP Camera...lol...and also I am not a big fan of 3G...

Now, I want to get the TyTn because of the stylus and the slider screen...but then again, the S621 is good too...lol...

so which one do you guys suggest...

Thanks

I've had both and I have to admit the tytn is better because of the faster processor, the capabilities of a pocketpc, the programs, the bigger screen AND the large keyboard.

although it gets somewhat tedious when you want to reply to a message and you have to turn the phone to the side and slide out the keyboard rather than having it infront of u(like the htc s621).

hmmm...the thing about tytn is that I know I will ruin the slider...and if I drop it, then I am might screw it....

It depends on what you're going to use it for. Come on, you should know that by now since you're a veteran here.

I am going to use it for txt and WiFi...

like I said, I have a kick *** 8MP camera...so 1.3 vs 2.0 camera is not an issue...

3G aint an issue, Video calling aint an issue...

JWY, what do you have??????

I have the S620 but I'm mostly using a N95 at the moment. Basically the S621 will perform better as a daily phone but the TyTN is a better overall PDA. You'll really appreciate the size of the S621 compared to the TyTN. You'll probably also feel more at home with the static keyboard coming from the Treo 680. The TyTN isn't bad either and has more power, but it comes at the cost of size. You've used WM before?

You have to factor in everything, size, processor speed, etc

Personally, i'd go with the TyTN. I just prefer PPC over smartphones

I need my Touch Screen, WM6 professional edition, Full slide out keyboard and 400mhz processor

Never used the Tytn but I know from some previous PPC phones that the touch screen sometimes wont accept a command. I personally find it annoying especially if I am driving (which I know i shouldnt be using the phone and driving).

I'd recommended the s620, but like much of the other replies it all depends what you will be using it for.

I have both.

I first bought a 620 and used it for 6 months, upgraded to WM6 and really liked it.

Then I bought the TyTN, to me the thing was that I was mistyping a lot of times on the 620. The keys are just small.

I have used the TyTN for about two months now. Its pretty solid. I've already dropped it a few times and it seems to have done OK. The slider does seem a little flimsy but overall its fine. I upgraded mainly for the better camera, 3G, and more real estate (keys and screen)

Here's the kicker: The TyTN is quite bigger. Its tough when its in a suit pocket, or when I am carrying it. I was going to sell the 620, but decided to keep it and switch between both. The TyTN is a great phone and perfect for all daily use, and the 620 will do the trick for the nights out, or when I want a smaller phone. I know that some people like to have a smaller cell phone to switch to, but I opted for the 620 as the smaller phone.

Ask any other questions you may want to know.

One thing I do like about the S621 is that it's small, and it can fit into almost any pocket, but it still has so much funtionality. Great phone. If your looking for a full fledge device and a more compact form factor then look at the touch.
