User Review for HP iPaq hw6965
Not Happy!
Apr 14, 2008Rating: 2 out of 10 (Terrible)
Pros: GPS
Cons: GPS! Battery life abysmal, turns off at the drop of a hat.
Opinion:
After moving "up" from an old i-mate, I'm ready to throw the 6965 out the window and go back to the i-mate.
Battery life borders on the ridiculous. Even when using the car charger, if you have GPS on it cuts out after less than an hour. Without car charger, maybe 20 minutes. When it cuts out you lose phone pin. Even with 70% battery life, it turns itself off at virtually any time - especially in the middle of a phone call. Grrrrrr! (at least my Imate has a backup battery).
And when it reboots, it seems to come up on a completely random screen.
I thought my 6965 might be faulty but from what I have read on other sites, I'm not so sure. All these seems to be a common complaint amongst users
