Comparisons Featuring HP Veer

Short Review

  • The HP Veer features a compact design with dimensions of 84 x 54.5 x 15.1 mm and a weight of 103 grams, making it highly portable.
  • Its 2.6-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 400 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 197 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks vibrancy.
  • Performance is powered by a Qualcomm MSM7230 chipset with an 800 MHz Scorpion CPU and Adreno 205 GPU, supported by 8GB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking.
  • The rear camera is 5 MP, capable of video recording, but lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
  • The battery capacity is 910 mAh, providing limited usage time without fast charging or wireless options.
  • Running on HP webOS 2.2, the software offers a unique interface but may lack app support compared to competitors.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, though it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device does not feature stereo speakers but includes a headphone jack for audio output.
  • Overall, the HP Veer is a basic smartphone with limited capabilities, suitable for users seeking simplicity.
  • Its small size and lightweight build make it easy to carry, but its performance and features may not meet the demands of modern users.
