The Sprint Mogul's design pulls a fast one on you. Without consulting the specs, the Mogul looks quite a bit smaller than its predecessor. With the size of only 109 x 58 x 18 mm and a weight of only 164 g, is this phone with perfect design. The HTC Mogul (PPC-6800) has a powerful camera with 2.0 MP / Flash / 8X Zoom / Auto Focus / video recorder. The overall look is reminiscent of the Cingular 8525 and the T-Mobile Wing, though we think the Mogul isn't quite as comfortable to hold as the Wing since it lacks a soft-touch finish. In addition, the back battery cover has a plastic, flimsy feel, so we worry that it might crack after some use. On the right side, you have the power button, a Communication Manager launcher for all your wireless connections, the camera activation key, and the stylus holder. The camera lens is located on the back along with a flash, but there's no self-portrait mirror. The left side holds a thumb wheel for faster scrolling, as well as an OK button, a voice recorder key, and a switch that lets you turn on the Wi-Fi. Finally, there's an infrared port, a microSD card slot, a reset button, and a mini USB port on the bottom of the unit. The Mogul (PPC-6800) supports audio and video transmission on the latest state of the Sprint TV / Windows Media Player technology. The high speed data transfer uses the cdma2000 1xEV-DO technology. The Mogul (PPC-6800) offers an infrared interface wireless data transfer. For the data with your computer, connect the phone to play your device. To access the full QWERTY keyboard, just push the front cover to the left. The sliding mechanism is smooth, and the cover locks into place with a satisfying click. The screen switches automatically from portrait to landscape mode, but like the Wing, the transition took a few seconds, especially when we had numerous apps open.
