Picture Highlights

|
| The MWg Zinc II sports a flush touchscreen design. The Windows Mobile soft keys are really soft keys, unlike other devices there are no hard buttons for these keys, you just touch the screen. | The MWg Zinc II screen rotation speed is excellent. The membrane keyboard takes a little practices but works well. |
Overall Impression
The MWg Zinc II is a solid performer and I think it is what the AT&T Tilt (HTC Kaiser) should have been out of the box. That said, given the competition that is forming out there with the HTC Touch Pro, Samsung Omnia and Sony/Ericsson Xperia X1, the Zinc II does not dazzle. It is somewhat of a basic Windows Mobile smartphone and offers very little user interface advances other than an excellent finger touch sensitive screen (for a Windows Mobile device). My conclusion is that if you do not want to be on the bleeding edge, and want a solid full featured unlocked smartphone with Windows Mobile 6.1 the MWg Zinc II should be on your short list.
