Short Review

  • The O2 XDA Argon features a robust design with dimensions of 130 x 70 x 18.8 mm and a weight of 200g, making it relatively bulky for its time.
  • Its 3.5-inch TFT resistive touchscreen offers a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 114 ppi, which may appear less vibrant compared to modern displays.
  • Performance is powered by a 400 MHz Samsung SC3 2442 CPU and 128MB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks but may struggle with more demanding applications.
  • The camera is a 2 MP rear unit, capable of video recording, but lacks advanced features like optical image stabilization.
  • Battery life is supported by a 1300 mAh capacity, though it does not support fast or wireless charging.
  • The device runs on Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 PocketPC, offering a unique software experience that may feel outdated today.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it lacks modern features like NFC and 5G support.
  • The absence of a headphone jack and stereo speakers limits audio versatility.
  • Overall, the O2 XDA Argon is a functional device for its era, with basic features suitable for casual use.
  • Its design and performance reflect the technology standards of 2007.
