Short Review
- The O2 XDA Guide features a compact design with dimensions of 102 x 53.5 x 14.5 mm and a weight of 102 grams, making it portable but somewhat thick.
- Its 2.8-inch TFT resistive touchscreen displays 65K colors at a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 143 ppi, which may appear limited by modern standards.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM7225 Snapdragon S1 chipset with a 528 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 256MB of RAM, providing basic functionality for its time.
- The camera is a 3.15 MP rear unit, lacking optical image stabilization and offering only CIF video recording, while there is no front-facing camera.
- The battery capacity is 1110 mAh, with no fast charging or wireless charging capabilities.
- Running on Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, the software experience may feel outdated compared to contemporary operating systems.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC support.
- The build quality is standard for its era, with a simple grey finish and no water resistance features.
- Overall, the O2 XDA Guide serves as a basic smartphone with limited specifications and features.
- Its design and performance reflect the technology available in 2009.
