Palm Pre Plus Review
Score: 38.5 / 100Palm Pre Plus is a low end cellphone, including a little 3.1 inches multi touch screen and a 3 mega-pixels back camera. We will get a better understanding of this device's specs when we get into deeper details.
This cellphone has a 16 GB quite big internal storage memory and although it doesn't include an SD memory slot, it is enough to install hundreds of games and apps, although it probably wouldn't be enough if you are fan of the largest games currently available or taking tons of pictures and videos.
This cellphone is a bit heavyweight for a cellphone of this size, weighting 4.89 oz. The Palm Pre Plus is a little thick for today's standards, with a thickness of 0.67".
This phone is equipped with a nice 3.1 inches screen with a 480 x 320 resolution, giving this device an average image quality. Its screen uses TFT capacitive technology, and has multi-touch detection.
This cellphone includes wifi connection (but it can't share it with other devices around, acting as a router) and 3G internet connection, using EV-DO A technologies. This phone doesn't have a sim card, because it doesn't work with GSM services and it works in CDMA networks.
This device only features a 3 megapixels back facing camera. This camera also features flash.
The Palm Pre Plus uses a poor capacity 1150 mAh Li-Ion battery providing this phone with a quite short battery duration. Palm reports a 350 hours stand by time and a 5.5 hours talk time for this cellphone.
This cellphone also features a few useful features as Bluetooth and GPS (Global Positioning System), and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.
This phone is not very convinient considering it is sold for 100 dollars, while some similar phones are being sold much cheaper than that.
