The Titan II's buttons stay lit while the phone is in use. While the capacitive buttons on both the Titan II and Lumia 900 light up, the Lumia 900's buttons will eventually fade to black. The HTC Titan II has the LED indicator that alerts you on missed calls, voice mail and charging status. Here are a few more observations on the design of the Titan II and Lumia 900. Much like the placement on the Samsung Focus. Personally, I like the power button in the upper corner of the right side. Now I can snake a car charger through the arms on my car cradle with the Titan II but I can't access the power button on the Lumia 900. Reason being, if you use a car cradle with regularity, the clamping arms on the cradle will block these two features. I'm not a fan of the power button being half-way down the side of the Lumia 900 or the micro-USB port being on the side of the Titan II.
#NOKIA LUMIA RINGTONE HAZE WINDOWS#
Two observations on the buttons/micro-USB port with these two Windows Phones. The volume and camera buttons are textured to give them a distinguish feel. The buttons are spread across the right side and on the top of the Titan II. The edges are contoured just enough to help mask the Titan II's size to make it feel nice in the hand. The uni-body design of the Titan isn't as flat as the Lumia 900 with rises for the camera and headphone jack.
The Titan II has a soft rubber finish that also feels nice in the hand. The micro-USB port is nestled away in an easy to get to position, at the top of the Windows Phone. The matte, polycarbonate body feels smooth, compact and nice in your hand. The buttons are smooth and are limited to the right side of the phone. The Lumia 900 is more of a flat body with rounded edges. While both feel good in the hand and have a uni-body style, the two designs differ somewhat. The size and weight of these two phones are so close there's really no clear distinction. Here's the tell of the tape between these two Windows Phones.
