Comparisons Featuring O2 XDA Serra

Short Review

  • The O2 XDA Serra features a compact design with dimensions of 102 x 51 x 18.1 mm and a weight of 165g, making it portable but somewhat bulky.
  • Its 2.8-inch TFT resistive touchscreen offers a resolution of 480 x 640 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 286 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM7201A chipset with a 528 MHz ARM 11 CPU and Adreno 130 GPU, paired with 288MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking.
  • The camera system includes a 3.15 MP rear camera with autofocus, but it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
  • Battery life is supported by a 1340 mAh capacity, but it does not offer fast or wireless charging options.
  • Running on Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, the software experience may feel dated compared to modern standards.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device has a miniUSB port for charging and data transfer, although it lacks a headphone jack and stereo speakers.
  • Overall, the O2 XDA Serra presents a basic feature set that reflects its 2008 release, with limitations in performance and camera capabilities.
  • Special features are minimal, focusing primarily on essential smartphone functions.
