Short Review
- The Palm Pre 2 CDMA features a compact design with dimensions of 100.7 x 59.6 x 16.9 mm and a weight of 145 grams, making it portable and easy to handle.
- Its 3.1-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 186 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking in sharpness for high-definition content.
- Performance is powered by a 1.0 GHz CPU and 512MB of RAM, which can handle everyday applications but may struggle with more demanding tasks.
- The rear camera is 5 MP and capable of video recording, though it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- Battery specifications are not provided, but the device does not support wireless charging.
- Running on HP webOS 2.0, the software offers a unique user experience, although it may feel dated compared to modern operating systems.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device has a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer, along with a standard headphone jack.
- Overall, the Palm Pre 2 CDMA is a compact smartphone with basic features suitable for casual use.
- Its design and software reflect its 2010 release, appealing to users seeking a simple, functional device.
