Average PDA with some frustrations

Dec 29, 2007

Rating: 5 out of 10 (Average)
Pros: Acceptable fairly good looking PDAphone
Cons: using T9 text function in SMS can be frustrating.../ no 3G
Opinion:
Its understandable using the Window Mobile 5 version has some hickup not just in Asus but other model as well.

But the placement of the centre button at the Qwerty keyboard hinders fast smsing and the spacing of the characters as well.

Searching of Names in contact list is difficult.

A word of warning: if you loose your stylus, you will never find a replacement in Singapore not even the servicing centre at Adelphi!

 

Superb all round PPC

Apr 17, 2007

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: all you need connectivity and apps easy to use & setup
Cons: larger # 2&5 buttons
Opinion:
I did a lot of research looking for PPC & phone that actually worked well together. This is it! Having owned the dopod 838 and cingular 8525 comparing this with them "the P525 is in a league of it's own it really works well.

Very Good PDA Phone for its price

Jan 7, 2007

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: A complete line of PDA and phone functions in one
Cons: weak speakers and limited tones.a learning curve for sms texting thru the keypads.very limited acces
Opinion:
The Asus p525 almost had it made with just a minor improvemtn in the speakers and battery life.Limited accesories also is a negatuve factor. But for its price, it is a very good buy for people who look for reasonably priced PDA/phone.

 

Great PDA Phone! RECOMMENDED

Oct 30, 2006

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Keypad, WiFi, BT, 2.0MP Cam. Great phone interface. All is in working order.
Cons: No 3G & Qwerty, but Keypad is GR8.
Opinion:
Earlier sets were on different ROM, thus quite a few problems in the beginning. Now ASUS has come up with the UPGRADED ROM's for exisiting & all NEW Sets come with the new ROM. Now it's problem free...
