A great Affordable smartphone, Thursday, October 2, 2008 - 13:33

By: Merben - See all my reviews

The Centro?s affordable price is probably it?s greatest attraction. The Palm Centro is one of the cheapest smartphones around. However, it?s low price doesn?t mean that its a low quality device.

This affordable smartphone offers a great set of features and it also offers an appealing look. The Palm Centro is also easy to use and compact. And with features like Stereo Bluetooth technology, A-GPS and productivity applications, it offers a whole lot considering its price tag.

However, the Palm Centro also has its share of weaknesses. For example, its hardware is not very sophisticated and looks toylike. it?s compact size also means that its QWERTY keypad is cramped. It also doesn?t have WIFI which is a good feature for Smartphones.

Nevertheless, the Palm Centro is a great phone for those who have a tight budget.

I have had, Friday, June 5, 2009 - 17:36

I have had this phone for about two years. I purchased it when it was newly released. It was a nice Smartphone with a decent price attached to it. This phone is compact but very durable. I have dropped this phone countless and never encountered any issues with it. It comes with various features and applications. I believe it offers pretty much everything that any other Smartphone on the market offers. It is very ideal for business people. It can be used to store documents, type documents, and it even can be connected to a printer to print out said documents. For the camera to be 1.3-megapixel, it delivers a very clear picture. You can store music on the device without a memory card however the memory may be limited.

This compact device is compelling!!
