Palm Pixi Mobile Phone Review

The Palm Pixi is finally here, complete with 8 GB of storage, a full QWERTY keyboard, a 2.63” inch capacitive touch screen display with 320×400 pixels of resolution, a 2.0 mega pixel camera and Wi-Fi. Yep, the Palm Pixi is fully loaded yet retains a very small size. The balance of hardware and size in this mobile phone is nothing short of a technological wonder.

Sizing Up

If you are wondering what is running underneath the Pixi hardware, you will be pleased to know that this mobile phone is using a Qualcomm MSM7627 processor; that is some serious processing power and will run almost any application that you can expect to have on the Pixi. The most interesting thing about the whole set up is that Palm manages to do all this with a device that is really small. It is slim, light and very easy to carry.

Mini Smart Phone

Size-wise, this mobile device is about the range of a GSM phone. Still, it has everything that a smart phone needs and a little extra. It also has a 3.5mm audio jack, customizable and interchangeable casings (go check the artist series). The applications it can run are wide and intensive; even the browsing features are well made.

Should You Get It?

If you plan on getting a smart phone for a good price and would like to carry a small device that does not get in way, then you would really do well with the Pixi. Palm created a very good package for this mobile phone by adding in a touch screen and Wi-Fi. The full QWERTY keyboard looks small at first, but thanks to the buttons used for the keys, using the keyboard is pretty even for people with larger fingers. Lastly, the graphics quality on the screen is clear and vivid, and the 8GB memory lets you store lots of media on the device.

  1. in my opinion, better form factor than pre. pre includes way too much plastic & its hardware is faulty (slider, home button, etc). pixi's strength is messaging
