MobileTechReview Gives the Treo 700wx a 4.5 out of 5

Filed in archive Opinion , Palm , Smartphones , Windows Mobile by Rico Mossesgeld on September 6, 2006

Now that you know the specs of Sprint's version of the Treo 700w, here's more information that can help you make a good decision. MobileTechReview's editor-in-chief, Lisa Gade, has recently written a review of the smartphone, and has given the unit a 4.5 out of 5.

To summarize, this Treo still retains its universally-acclaimed ergonomics and easy one-handed usage. Apparently, the doubled memory helps responsive and performance a lot. A useful benchmark graph comparing the 700wx with other Windows Mobile powered devices shows that the Treo is quite fast.

Unfortunately, it seems the camera still has its shortcomings, and Wi-Fi is still lacking. The relatively small 240x240 means you have less display real-estate than other Windows Mobile PDA phones, and some third-party apps don't work properly with the screen.

Let's Put it in Context: Keep in mind though that MobileTechReview rated the Treo 700w a 4, despite the many complaints users have with the 700wx's progenitor.
