Sprint, Verizon Touch Diamond, Touch Pro Details

According to Phone Arena, there will be slight differences to the offerings of America's two largest CDMA carriers. The Touch Diamond will appear as the Sprint Victor while Verizon Wireless will retain the Touch Diamond brand.

Phone Arena notes that the most significant differences to both the Victor and the Diamond offered by the competing CDMA carriers will be:

Sprint’s variant runs on Qualcomm 7501A chipset with 528MHz processor, 256MB ROM, 256MB RAM and 4GB internal memory. Verizon’s runs on Qualcomm 7500 chipset with 400MHz processor, has half the RAM (128MB) and has microSD cards slot instead of 4GB NAND flash. Sprint’s Victor will have an accelerometer (Motion G Sensor), Rev.A straight out of the box, and aluminum frame. Verizon’s Diamond lacks the sensor, is Rev.A upgradable and has stainless steel frame. .

It boils down to the Sprint's model has more RAM, built-in storage, accelerometer, and a slightly faster processor. Verizon eschews the built-in storage for a memory card slot, has a slower processor, less RAM, and no motion sensor.

The Touch Pro will be more or less the same as its keyboard-less counterparts. Sprint's model will be named the HTC Herman while Verizon will go with HTC Raphael. Both models will have 512 MB for ROM memory and both will not have the 4 GB internal storage. Instead, they will both come with a memory card slot.

Rumors have it that the Victor (Touch Diamond on Sprint) will appear on September 2 and Sprint will have a thirty-day exclusivity. No rumored date is known for the HTC Herman (Touch Pro on Sprint), but Sprint will also have a month long exclusivity period there as well.
