The phone is slim but it hangs a lot

Sep 10, 2007

Rating: 4 out of 10 (Mediocre)
Pros: Slim. Writing is easy. Touch screen is good.
Cons: Hangs too much. Preocessor is poor. Wastes a lot of time for programs to load.
Opinion:
I made a mistake by buying the Dopod C800. For a heavy user like me, this is not the PDA phone to have. It hangs and hangs. Most of the time. And, its not cheap.

Beautifully Designed Effective Tool

Jan 12, 2007

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Small Package, Heaps of connectivity otions
Cons: Cost
Opinion:
Sure it is a bit on the high side pricewise but its functionality, size and ease of use is just excellent.. that is if you don't need/want 3G services. The 838Pro is just too big for my liking.

This is a great all round phone/PDA

I just do not understand the value proposition here!

Jan 11, 2007

Rating: 2 out of 10 (Terrible)
Pros: Nil
Cons: This is the poor, but not cheap half brother to the 838 Pro
Opinion:
I really cannot see the need for this device. It is only approx SGD $100 cheaper than an 838 Pro, has not 3G, uses the TI OMAP Processor which is inferior to the Samsung 400 mhz in the 838 Pro. If the 838 was not already on the market then perhaps as a first model to market this may make sense. What would have been cool was if the C800 was the next gen 838 and perhaps there had been some effort to reduce size and weight.I am struggling to see the value proposition behind this phone.
