Treo 700wx review

Tagged:

So I got this new phone Treo 700wx from Verizon wireless about 6 months ago. At first I thought it was great - you can surf the net, edit word documents, check your email, use voice dialing, take pictures, and the list goes on....

But now, that I've used it for about 6 months, I think the phone is way too big. I can't fit it in my pocket without seeing the thing bulging out - like I'm carrying bricks in my pants. Oh yeah, and the bluetooth on this thing sucks! it sucks really bad. I've used everything from a jawbone to a plantronics bluetooth headset with this phone and they all had static. Treo must really be using a cheap bluetooth transmitter/receiver for their phones as I've seen other reviews on the net that complains about the same problem. Let's just say that I have not used a bluetooth headset with this phone since about 4 months ago.

Oh yeah, picture quality sucks too on this phone. Yes, some of you maybe saying, "but it's a business phone, why do you need to take pictures..." trust me, you want to take pictures with your phone, life is not all about business....

On the upside, I can check email whenever I want, wherever I want with this phone. The qwerty keypad is nice and the voice dialing is almost always right.

If you're looking for a Treo, you might want to think twice before you buy one, maybe you want to get something slimmer - if only Verizon offered Blackberries with camera and GSM....
