Review Summary |
ThereÂ’s little to complain about this chic model that follows closely on the success of the Tungsten T5 except that it is not for those looking for the complete all-in-one mobile device as it does not have phone and camera features. |
A combination of good design and a fully customizable user interface make the Hero a great smartphone. A boon for the Android platform still in its infancy. |
The Satio delivers great pictures and comes with many high-end features, but the inconsistent user interface of the platform mars the overall experience of the device. |
