Comparisons Featuring HP iPAQ rw6818

Short Review

  • The HP iPAQ rw6818 features a compact design with dimensions of 102 x 58 x 19.5 mm and a weight of 140g, making it portable but slightly thicker than modern standards.
  • Its 2.7-inch TFT resistive touchscreen offers a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 148 ppi, which may appear dated by today's standards.
  • Performance is driven by an Intel PXA 272 CPU clocked at 416 MHz, paired with 64MB RAM and 128MB ROM, providing basic functionality for its time.
  • The 2 MP rear camera captures images without optical image stabilization and supports video recording, while there is no front-facing camera available.
  • The 1530 mAh battery provides adequate power, but lacks fast charging and wireless capabilities.
  • Running on Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 PocketPC, the software experience is tailored for productivity, though it may feel limited compared to contemporary operating systems.
  • Connectivity options include Bluetooth 1.2 and miniUSB, but it lacks WiFi and NFC support.
  • The device includes stereo speakers, enhancing audio output, but it does not feature a headphone jack.
  • Overall, the HP iPAQ rw6818 is a functional device with basic features, suitable for users seeking a simple mobile experience.
