RECENZE: Palm Treo 750v

Na netu se včera a dnes objevily 2 recenze komunikátoru Palm Treo 750v vybaveného operačním systémem Windows Mobile, který Palm exkluzivně vyrábí pro globálního operátora Vodafone. Když si ale tak ty recenze čtu, nejsem si jist, jestli píšou o stejném zařízení .. d8-D

Hodnocení z recenze Trea 750v na SlashPhone.com:

Phone performance itself was reasonable, with a generally fair signal although occasionally muffled audio (though I had no complaints from those I was calling). Not having an earlier Treo with external aerial to hand, I was unable to compare neither their ability to connect nor their clarity having once done so.

In terms of price, you have to consider the 750v in both the short and long term. Vodafone will happily give you the handset free… if you sign up to a year-long contract at £70 a month (or 18-months at £50). Pick a mid-range tariff, say £35 for 18-months, and the Treo will cost you £70. Over time, however, the UMTS data charges could easily mount up: Vodafone charges £2.35 per MB, and given the absence of WiFi you’ll be dependent on the 3G connection. I also had trouble finding any sort of data log to monitor exactly how many MB I’d used.

So would I buy the Treo 750v myself, and more importantly would I recommend it to you? Well I’ve certainly learnt that push email and a full keyboard is something I now won’t do without, but I’m not sure if the 750v is the device that’ll be serving it up to me. The Nokia E61/E62, already reviewed by SlashGear, has a broader screen, more keyboard space and uses that excellent browser I’m so impressed with. Yes, it doesn’t have a camera, but the quality of the Treo’s photography wasn’t all that impressive, and I’d much rather have the Nokia’s WiFi. Still, the familiar Windows’ interface, easy to use controls and reassuringly solid build-quality of the Treo, coupled with reasonable performance in calls, would make it a sound choice for anyone looking for a QWERTY-enabled smartphone.

Overall I am very happy with the Treo 750v. It would be nice if it was thinner, but it is still quite a reasonable size, and its contoured shape feels great in the hand. Its currently only available from Vodafone in Europe and a few other places, so if you want one now you will have to either wait for it to become available with your local carrier or import a Vodafone unit and have it unlocked. If you do, I think you will agree it’s worth the trouble :-D
