Summary
- The Palm Treo 650 features a 2.4-inch TFT resistive touchscreen with a resolution of 320 x 320 pixels, while the Treo 680 has a slightly larger 2.5-inch display with the same resolution, resulting in a marginally lower pixel density.

- The camera capabilities are identical, with both models featuring a VGA rear camera, but the Treo 680 supports CIF video recording, whereas the Treo 650 does not specify video quality.
- In terms of battery, both have unspecified capacities and lack wireless charging.
- The Treo 650 is heavier at 178g compared to the 157g of the Treo 680, which also has a more compact design.
