CNET Asia Review

Very good

7.7

out of 10

View score

The good: Integrated 1.2-megapixel camera with video-record function; Bluetooth; fast processor; multimedia support; robust software bundle; expansion slot.

The bad: No Wi-Fi; lacks camera lens cover; battery not user-replaceable.

The bottom line: If you can live without Wi-Fi, the midpriced PalmOne Zire 72 is a well-rounded PDA with features suited for both work and play.

Mixed feelings



Rating: 4 out of 10 (Mediocre)
Pros: 
Cons: 
Opinion:
What's good: Features not bad but no wifi... Bad: The blue layer peels off very easily, I'm very disappointed as it is a midrange pad & I don't expect that to happen :(
The batt life, it sucks. After using it for just over a year it has gone from bad to worse. I charged the whole nite, only half a bar filled, something's is wrong. I'll not get a pda again. Bad experience :'(

 


Batt life and camera really unacceptable



Rating: 3 out of 10 (Poor)
Pros: 
Cons: 
Opinion:
Don't get this. I regret it every second. Paint peels off, battery doesn't last, and camera is as good as not having.

 


A perfect gadget!

This guy ROCKS! With the price, I can tell you it gives you the biggest bang for the buck! All in, the IR, Bluetooth, hi-res screen, 1.2-megapixel cam. Just buy a 256MB SD or 512 or 1GB SD, then BANG, you got a very powerful tool. I am a student and I use it a lot to store my lessons, so I can read and study everywhere instead of carrying heavy laptops! Two thumbs up for Palm! Highly recommended!
