We'd heard rumors a while back that the Touch Pro 2 would be coming to Canada's Telus network, and those rumors solidified in the past couple of weeks. Now, here's a look at the upcoming release, courtesy of Mobilesyrup.

So whatcha think, folks? Out of all of the versions of the Touch Pro 2 that we've seen either in the flesh or rumored — Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile, the AT&T renders and the stock European version — which one is looking the best, aesthetically?

So this version has a 3.5mm headphone jack and all the others dont? Not very nice of HTC is it?

2.5mm, he said. (That right?) In that case, it's better than nothing, but still not the standard 3.5mm.

Looks a little larger than a 2.5mm, unless it has a lip to it...crossing my fingers that this feature makes it to sprint.

Anyone know when this will be coming to Sprint. I feel like I've been waiting forever...but that's just my impatience.

The reviewer casually passes over the (highly unusual for HTC)2.5/3.5mm (what ever size it it) headphone jack. This makes the review seem very amateur, any professional phone reviewer would have instantly focused on this feature.

Now if only we can get that headphone jack on the Sprint version and a launch date!

Not to mention that he said the accelerometer puts it speaker phone mode when it's really the proximity sensor.

no, it's the accelerometer. if it were the proximity sensor (which is responsible for the screen turning off when you're on a conversation), it would go to speaker phone every time you held it to your face. ;)

its hard to tell whether or not he said 2.5 or 3.5, it doesnt really make sense for them to only put a 2.5, either way this phone is the only reason im switching to Telus, the back is not as nice as the euro tho, do you think you could just put a euro one on it?

its strange that it is not branded...

guys watch the video again

theres a pop up where he says "my bad 3.5mm"

3.5mm FTW!
