Good PDA Devices for me

Jul 23, 2009

Rating: 10 out of 10 (Perfect)
Pros: Very good even doesn't have a GPS
Cons: Nothing....
Opinion:
This good enough device even doesn't have a GPS on it cause we don't need it right now.

No device is excellent until 100% without Cons reviews, but for me no cons for this device.

If you want to buy the device, should not MWg mark at device, O2 mark much better... to keep originality of devices.

Good ... Good ... Gooodd enough ... im happy having it ...
Very suitable for my jobs ..., never hung on my devices

Its a PDA-phone, no bells and whistles please

Oct 28, 2008

Rating: 7 out of 10 (Very good)
Pros: Very fast and capable
Cons: Frequent Hang and Locks with O2 supplied applications - O2 theme
Opinion:
All negative comments from earlier user reviews are true. But why I rate it 7-Very Good?

Yes, it hangs and locks forcing me to reboot WHEN I have O2 theme installed which has battery meters, new date/clock screen and a whole bunch of other applications. And Yes, it hangs when you are playing some of WM2003 games (Emperor's Mahjong, Lemonade Tycoon etc) and somebody ring you.

But, if you do not load the O2 theme and use the classic Today screen, its a very decent PDA phone. It play multi-media smooth and newer games fast and battery life is surprisingly long.

I played 60 minute game / multi-media and the phone is still capable of making / receiving many calls. And it has 1G ROM and fast CPU, PXA624. 2.0Mega Pixel camera with photo-light.

So if you don't need GPS, Toch-Flo, and other fancy stuff and just want a decent Windows mobile PDA phone, I ... Read more

 

Fastest WM device in town, Value for money!

Aug 4, 2008

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: fastest processor, improved battery life, 1GB memory, and good value
Cons: no longer o2 branded, alittle heavy
Opinion:
I've been lucky enough to get my hands on the MWg Atom Life after the O2 Atom Life, and not sure what MWg has done but the issues that bloggers were complaining about, i.e. poor battery life, have been resolved!

and if you are not brand conscious, and are looking for substance at good value, this is it. It's got a great processor, good memory and expandable, the usual office programs.

Only downside is it can be alittle heavy if you compare this to the tin-can light ericssons and samsungs. but then again, this does so much more, what's alittle weight.



 

Look Elsewhere!

Jul 6, 2008

Rating: 3 out of 10 (Poor)
Pros: Software add-ons, WM6, range of functions
Cons: battery life (Poor at best), Hang, Resets, Won't restart... Doesn't work!
Opinion:
I'm now going on about 9 months with the phone. I live overseas for work about 9 months out of the year and was looking for a phone that would keep me in touch wherever I was, but also maintain a phone type of setup and other things, as I am a young executive. At first I was psyched about the phone! It has all of these different features, abilities for syncing between my Mac and WM6 (after some add-on software), good speaker quality, so many different ways to customize it, and the touch screen of course is great! After some time now, actually, within a couple of weeks, the phone started to have issues. I was constantly having to reset it, both hard and soft. The software was working slowly, it would tell me I needed more memory when only about 25% of the memory was used on the device and no other ... Read more
