Comparisons Featuring Palm Pre Plus
Short Review
- The Palm Pre Plus features a compact design with dimensions of 100.5 x 59.5 x 16.9 mm and a weight of 138g, 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, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks vibrancy.
- Performance is powered by a 600 MHz Cortex-A8 CPU and 512MB of RAM, providing a basic user experience suitable for light applications.
- The rear camera has a resolution of 3.15 MP, capable of capturing images but lacking advanced features like optical image stabilization.
- Battery capacity is 1150 mAh, supporting wireless charging but offering limited longevity under heavy use.
- The device runs on Palm webOS 1.3.5, which provides a unique multitasking experience but is outdated compared to modern operating systems.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.1, though it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The phone features a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer, while a headphone jack is included for audio needs.
- Overall, the Palm Pre Plus is a basic smartphone with essential features, suitable for users seeking simplicity.
- Its design and software, while innovative at launch, may not meet the expectations of today's smartphone users.
