  • Its 2.5-inch TFT resistive touchscreen supports 65K colors with a resolution of 320 x 320 pixels, providing decent clarity for basic tasks.

  • Battery specifications are not provided, indicating a lack of detailed performance metrics in this area.
  • Connectivity options include Bluetooth 1.2, but it lacks WiFi, NFC, and 5G support, limiting online functionality.
  • The device is available in various colors, including Graphite and Crimson, but does not feature water resistance.
  • The absence of a headphone jack and stereo speakers may restrict audio options for users.
  • Overall, the Treo 680 is a basic smartphone with essential features suitable for straightforward communication and tasks.
