  Palm PRE is great

  by kinalis on June 23, 2009

  Pros: The palm pre is fast, can run multiple programs flawlessly, and is designed beautifully. WebOS is intuitive. Palm has been fantastic about pushing out updates to the device's software and battery life is now on par with other devices in its class.

  Cons: While the keyboard is not tiny it is also not huge. Still has a few early bugs. No Forced Roaming! No software keyboard.

  Summary: This phone is great. The keyboard is except able. I would put it on par with the Blackberry curve. I have fairly wide fingers, with short fingernails, but i can ...

  Summary: This phone is great. The keyboard is except able. I would put it on par with the Blackberry curve. I have fairly wide fingers, with short fingernails, but i can type just fine on the keyboard. The touch screen is the most responsive and satisfying i have used, even compared to the iphone i would say it is smoother. The screen is supre clear, and vibrant. WebOS is the best phone operating system I have used. Palm has pushed out updates to help with stability of the phone quite quickly. The operating system is so powerful and fast its hard to belive its a phone. My iPhone did not have nearly the power that this phone does, and I loved my iphone.
  
  The camera app is very simple. No effects, just flash on or off (led flash is fine) and a button to access photo's already taken and of course a shutter button. What is cool is that you can use the spacebar to take shots.
  
  The phone app, well, it's ok. It works fine, but it is very simple, lacking spoken commands as well as a limited list of previous calls.
  
  there is no forced roaming. Something i loved about other palm phones was the ability to tell the phone only to roam, this is helpful in area's where sprint is spotty, and call quality would be better on a roaming network then your no bars sprint connection. I believe this to be more of a problem with sprint, then with palm themselves, as this feature was hacked within weeks of the release of the phone.
  
  The app catalog is currently small but seems to show great promise and when the SDK is relased in the summer of 2009, there is great promise for a sleek expierence just like in apples app store.
  
  Universal search is incredible and frustrating. It searches all your contacts, and apps, as well as i believe calendar events, what it doesn't do is search your emails. I have high hopes palm will change this within the next few months but right now universal search is the best way to launch an app make a call, or text your friend, but I wish it had just that touch more power.
  
  The texting app is the best I have used or seen, bar none. The linking of AIM and SMS profiles allows for seemless conversations that look very similar to a chat program as opposed to an SMS viewer on a phone. This right here could be a selling point for those heavy texters out there.
  
  Calendar: Excellent well done, while also being simple and intuitive.
  
  Memo's: you place memo's on a virtual cork board. Its a bit dissappointing if you were a big memo user from previous palms, i was not so i'm not missing much.
  
  Tasks: It's a simple task program, well done, smooth and attractive.
  
  Music: Sound quality is great, the app itself is easy enough, but it is heavy on the system and causes noticeable slow down. Pandora is fantastic though, and on the pre you can listen to pandora and do other things.
  
  Wrap up: This phone is great, works well, is smooth, and is quickly being upgraded by palm. I can't say enough about how much i enjoy the experience using this phone.

  Give it time.

  by KMowry on June 8, 2009

  Pros: The OS is excellent. Great potential for development of applications. Nice looking screen. Multitasking is great and easily controlled. GPS directions works very well. Love the touchstone. Useful integration with iTunes.

  Cons: The battery life is poor. Be prepared to keep recharging the phone. The screen is too small for my liking. The keyboard is cramped and the buttons sit down in a "dish". Would like some sort of online app store. Too limited use of rotate and pinch.

  Summary: I have been using an unlocked first gen iPhone for a couple of years. I had a great voice and data plan with T-Mobile. But it was time to purchase ...

  Summary: I have been using an unlocked first gen iPhone for a couple of years. I had a great voice and data plan with T-Mobile. But it was time to purchase the new iPhone or Palm Pre. I am not sure I made the best decision by going to the Pre. I have loved my iPhone. Yet I am excited about the Pre's OS. So I decided to be part of the experience of seeing this new phone and OS mature. Over time it could be an incredible platform and hardware combination. But if you buy now, you will be a part of a product development experience.
  
  Some side comments and comparisons:
  I loved that I could set my font size on the iPhone to a larger size and work with it without glasses. The fonts on the Palm Pre are very small. Keep your glasses nearby.
  When you slide out the keyboard, the weight is top heavy so the phone feels like it wants to flip over. More weight in the keyboard would help the feel in your hand.
  I was surprised that so few of the applications rotate or make use of the "pinching" feature.
  I really believe that a version of the phone with a landscape keyboard would be useful to many users or at least a larger phone size.
  Be prepared to recharge your battery at every opportunity. You will want to buy at least one touchstone.
  
  I really like:
  The interface and multitasking are very well intergraded. The gesture area is a great innovation. The existing applications run well and are beautiful to look at. I like being able to hold the Pre in one had and operate it with my thumb. No need to place the phone in a holster. Cover it with some sort of screen protector and drop it in your pocket. Notifications at the bottom of your screen are very well integrated and helpful.
  
  Give it time:
  I am willing to give the Pre time to continue to mature and develop. It has many advantages over the iPhone, but the iPhone is still dominate due to its wide variety of applications and integration into the desktop and "cloud". Given time, I believe the Palm Pre can prove to be a very competitive experience.
  
  I may buy an iTouch, however, to continue enjoying many of the applications I have come to love.

  A real and fair review, steps away from being the Best

  by cjohnbrown on June 7, 2009

  Pros: Multi-tasking, UI, Keyboard, WebOS, Synergy, Design, WiFi

  Cons: Tight Keyboard, Battery Life could be better (to fix adjust factory settings)

  Summary: Overall this is the best phone I have ever had and personally I would say this beats out the ?I?phone, G1, and Blackberry Storm but only slightly and most likely a tie based on your personal style preferences. I am coming from a Palm 755p.
  The Palm Pre does everything; it not only makes your general phone life easier it actually makes it seamless. It integrates your work with your personal and also allows you to keep them separate when you desire. I do not truly believe in the ?I?phone killer line but if there was such a thing ?I?phone definitely has a little red dot on its back, but I contend that there is enough room in the market for everyone in the smartphone world.
  
  Pros:
  ?Feels Great ? Pre has an amazing feel in hand. Sits perfectly in hand, very natural. Phone is not too thin and not too thick. Also the slide out keyboard curves to your face which gives it a comfortable talking angle rather than a straight line. Sleek
  ?Fast Internet action ? renders pages quickly
  ?Great Multi-touch touch screen. On par with the ?I?Phone
  ?Keyboard. For those who are not a fan of touchscreen keyboards or have to type a lot the Pre has a keyboard.
  ?Superior Screen Resolution. While the screen is smaller than some of the competition, this is actually a positive because it allows for a crisp picture. Emails and Web Pages are easy to read and videos and pictures look amazing
  ?Best Contacts and Calendars ? Pre Brings all of your contacts from your current Phone, Outlook and Google together (other to be added)
  ?Great User Interface ? Touch Screen is navigated by what Palm call gestures (finger swipes) everything is easy to access and smooth. Universal Search also helps with this, US allows you to just start typing what you want on your phone, It first searches your phone for application and contacts, then proceeds to search, Google, Wiki, Google Maps and Twitter)
  ?Manages all you emails in one location
  ?Multi tasking ? This is huge. You can use multiple applications at the same time, thus, play mp3 player while searching the web and send an email all at the same time. Most phones hold you to one task at a time.
  ?YouTube and Amazon MP3 store
  ?WiFi
  ?Google Maps with Location Tracker
  ?Stereo Bluetooth
  ?3.0 MP Camera with Flash
  ?MP3 player that also syncs with itunes
  ?Pandora Internet Radio ? Also works during multitasking
  ?Best Speak phone I have heard or used
  ?Applications can connect to calendar (ex. Fandango app lets you buy movie tickets then puts the event into your calendar
  ?Memos look and work like post its and for anyone that works at a Desk you know how handy a post and a wall can be
  ?Also the Palm backup also allows you to remotely erase your phone which is great if ever lost or stole and then instantly sync your information over to your new phone
  ?USB Mode ? Just drag and drop music and pictures
  ?Minimal Learning curve ? After using the phone for a hour you master how to navigate
  ?Combine IM/SMS/MMS one contact gets a thread where you can follow all communication
  ?Contact reminders ? under your contacts you can put a reminder under a individual so when they call you get the reminder (Ex. Joe owes you $20 when Joe calls a reminder comes up telling you that Joe owes you a 20)
  ? Removable battery ? I think its crazy for any phone to not have a removable battery
  ?Cut & Paste
  ?Notifications ? Do not stop you from working, and are easy to manage also in the notification bar on the phone you can manage you music players so you can change songs from any stage of the phone
  ?Touchstone ? the cool wireless charger for the Palm Pre
  ?Accelerator screen
  ?Over the Air Updates, Palm releases updates to improve phone and add features wirelessly
  
  Cons
  
  ?While you can chose ringtones for calls you can not chose or create ringtones for Calendars, Messaging and other notifications
  ?Battery Life could be better with heavy use you will just make it to the end of the day but with adjusted settings and moderate ?everyday use? you can make it possibly a day and a half.
  ?App Store needs to mature not many apps but it is also the first day so more apps to come
  ?Keyboard is a little cramp, I have mid-size man hands and it?s a little tight, the more you use it the easier it gets but word of advice tip with tips.
  ?No On screen keyboard
  ?Playlist support only in tunes, no creating playlist on the fly
  ?No Podcast downloader
  ?Flash on camera is good but not great/Also no flashlight feature yet
  ?Currently does not record videos but Palm has committed to fixing this soon
  ?Music downloads from Amazon only download over WiFi (currently)
  ?No Vertical video support, all videos go directly to horizontal
  ?No emoticons in IM ? So if you a fan of tossing a smiley face in a message you will have to create it on you
  ?Universal Search searches a lot but it does not search everything, such as Calendars, Messages or Emails.

  Summary: Should have done my research and/or waited for this phone to be out to the masses for awhile. I like the phones apps and what it can do but the battery life is terrible. Google "Palm Pre Battery life issues" and read the forums of people like me complaining of the battery life and possible "fixes." i do not have time to cycle a battery 5 times to get a few more hours of life. I charged my bold overnight on my nightstand and it was ready to go the next day with medium to intense use and would be down to one bar at midnight. Try opening a few apps on the Pre for 10 minutes and the life will be down to 90% from a full charge. Do not just take my word for it, read the forums. I have done all the tips and tricks to increase the battery life. One solution....delete hotmail accounts from your phone and turn off all the features and you should eek out a few more hours. Seriously....this is the solution? Good thing I spent alot of money on features that I should keep off unless I really, really need them. I guess I should not expect to get email on the go either. I am actually very impressed with the phone and service speed but until this issue is resolved I think th iPhone is safe from a hostile takeover. I am going back to the Sprint store tomorrow and exchanging the Pre for a good old-fashioned Blackberry Curve.

  Summary: terrible expirience with this phone! ive been excited about the palm pre for 4 months now and a loyal sprint customer since 2001 and im switching to the iphone! was very impressed with the os and the multitasking feature and was very impressed with the resolution. problem was the first phone i got from them would turn off when i flipped it open , closed it, or even set it down. made sure the battery was put in properly took it to the geek squad no one could fix it had to wait for a return was without a phone then my replacement gave out! not to mention the second phone i had recieved an email saying that someone hacked into my phone. anyway the second pre that ive had wont turn on and im not waiting to get another piece of shoe so im finally getting the iphone. maybe a couple dollars more a month but its worth it knowing that you have a phone that you know will work longer than 2 days.

  touch screen problem

  by roadslug on June 7, 2009

  Pros: Seemed pretty cool. Liked being able to switch between applications without quitting.

  Cons: touch screen got flaky and was blanking out and not responding to touch. First this was only for phone calls so I thought maybe it was a software problem but it started doing it other time also. Shoddy quality.
  Needs horizontal keyboard.

  Summary: Getting a unit with a touch screen that goes bad immediately is a turn off. Hopefully the replacement does better, though I must say I'm nervous. Looks like the ...

  Summary: Getting a unit with a touch screen that goes bad immediately is a turn off. Hopefully the replacement does better, though I must say I'm nervous. Looks like the learning curve for the phone will be steep. Some simple things like setting the speed dial were not obvious.

  Best Phone I've Used Thus Far

  by Greggp on August 10, 2009

  Pros: Great OS. True Multi-Tasking, Physical Keyboard, Phone Size, Great Speaker Phone, Touchstone Charger, Push E-mail Delivery, Remote Wipe, Automatic Backup, Highly Intuitive, Sprint's Data network, True Navigation included

  Cons: Battery Life could be better, App Store not developed yet

  Summary: I have had just about every phone imaginable and on each network. In the past 2 years I had an iPhone on AT&T, then a Blackberry on Verizon, then the Google G1 on Tmobile and now the Palm Pre on Sprint. Yes, I've paid a small fortune in cancellation fees, but I use these smartphones for business and the increase in productivity from each upgrade has justified the cancellation fees.
  
  I am a huge Apple fan and the iPhone was a revolutionary product that set a new benchmark for Wireless phones. Unfortunately, the soft keyboard was difficult to use and what was even more unfortunate was that AT&T's service was horrible for me. I have offices in Jacksonville and Miami and travel to Tampa and Orlando fairly often. I can honestly say that AT&T's service had to be the least reliable service I have ever experienced. I dropped several calls every day, many calls would go straight to v-mail as opposed to making my phone ring. It got to a point that I was afraid to call a client while driving, because of the embarrassment of dropping the call. So as much as I liked the iPhone, despite the keyboard, I had to switch.
  
  I went to Verizon, which I had used for years before switching to AT&T when the iPhone was released and purchased a World Edition Blackberry. The voice service was excellent, but the high speed data was mediocre at best and Verizon's constant disabling of the Wifi feature in their phones, including the new Blackberry Storm (whose touchscreen keyboard I could not deal with when trying on multiple occasions) was enough for me to cancel. I wanted a touch screen interface like the iPhone, with wifi, but a physical keyboard, so off I went to T-mobile and the Google G1.
  
  The G1 is a pretty decent phone and T-mobile's service is pretty good as well. Their new 3g data network is decent but not great. The G1 however was lacking for me in several ways. First, only G-mail accounts would update in realtime. My work account would have to settle with an iMap account that would drain the battery quite rapidly when I wanted to pull e-mails, which I do very often during the day. The G1 also has a nice big landscape keyboard, but I found it a little irritating constantly having to turn the phone sideways to use it. The phone required 2 hands to use, and I don't always have 2 hands free. Especially when driving and needing to access the address book. There are 3rd party applications that can overcome this, but the Google App store is very low budget and by no means compares with the quality of the Apps with the iPhone. Despite not being live yet, the Palm Pre App Store has more of a touch and feel of the iPhone Apps store and you can tell that when it goes live, it will be far more polished. To end my T-mobile experience, I would say the service is pretty good, and so is the G1, but the e-mail is far from perfect and I would physically have to open every e-mail and then delete it in order to get the e-mail deleted off my work server. Tedious and not productive.
  
  Now to the Pre. I went into the Sprint store about 3 weeks ago and played with the Pre for about 1 hour. It was almost love at first sight. I figured I would do the 30 day trial that Sprint offers, signed up for the Simply everything plan $99 for unlimited everything, including navigation and gave it a whirl...
  
  After 2 weeks, I ported my T-mobile number over and am now 100% in with Sprint. The Pre is simply awesome. Multitasking is great. I can now run and update multiple apps at the same time. The e-mail application is awesome. First off, my work e-mail pushes instantly to the phone. All of my folders show up and are accessible from the road. When I delete a message from either the inbox view or from the message itself, it deletes off my work server. No more duplicates!!! The voice quality has been excellent. On par with Verizon and I've only dropped about 2-3 calls in the last 3 weeks, and I'm a heavy, heavy user. We are talking 4,000+ minutes a month. The one thing I am amazed by is the speed and reliability of Sprints Data Network. It is by far the best I've seen and the fastest. The Navigation system on the phone is awesome and included in the Simply Everything Plan. It makes Google Maps seem paltry in comparison when getting directions. The phone is also highly intuitive and all the applications link to one another. The Apps Store, while only possessing a few apps right now is under beta. You can tell though that it will have the polish and quality to rival the Apps of the iPhone Apps store, although it will take Palm and the developer world some time to catch up. For $99 a month, I am saving $25 off T-mobiles all inclusive plan and $50 off AT&T's iPhone plan a month. Plus you get live streaming TV or other programming which is great for killing time in Airports or waiting in a lobby for a meeting. Plus it has a Keyboard! Get one, you won't regret it. It's simply Awesome!

  I decided to keep it

  by puzzlegal on July 23, 2009

  Pros: Wonderful screen
  intuitive gestures to navigate, read documents
  physical keyboard
  size & shape
  deck of cards multitasking
  fast web browsing
  
  less important:
  surprisingly good camera
  good mp3 player
  integrated airplane tracking/calendar app

  Cons: battery life (especially compared to my treo!)
  flaky "version 1.0" issues
  awkward & limited cut&paste
  universal search isn't
  sometimes sluggish
  mail program is too basic for me
  volume hard to control precisely
  memory can't be expanded

  Summary: I am a power e-mail user. I loved my Treo, but was jealous of my iPhone-toting friends' abilty to show off photos (treo screen was really too small for that) ...

  Summary: I am a power e-mail user. I loved my Treo, but was jealous of my iPhone-toting friends' abilty to show off photos (treo screen was really too small for that) and sometimes wanted better web access. I tried a friend's iPhone and didn't find it comfortable for writing e-mail. Also, the iPhone e-mail app isn't as flexible as I'd like, and this isn't an area where Apple allows competing apps. AT&T also has lousy phone coverage in my area, I often can make calls with SPrint where my iPhoned friends couldn't.
  
  I debated whether to keep this for a few weeks. The e-mail is sometimes flakey. For instance, If you put it in "show all inboxes" it doesn't always download all the accounts. (You can fix this in several ways, the simplest of which is to keep it mostly in the inbox of one account or another. But that's flakey.) The e-mail program only supports folders that exist in an on-line IMAP account, which isn't the model I want to use. In particular, I would like to select a few e-mails to keep on my gadget, and have everything else go away by itself in a week or so. It doesn't support that. It does support my two POP accounts and one iMAP account, though.
  
  Other users have complained that its calendar syncing and Facebook syncing are flaky, too. I've had no trouble with calendars, and like sharing a several google calendars with my husband, and a few specialized ones with friends. That's really well implemented here, as far as I can tell. I don't sync with Facebook at all.
  
  It took me a little while to learn how best to use the "synergy" as it applies to contacts. It can be a little confusing until you sort out how to interact with it, but mostly works very well. It's very frustrating that the "universal search" doesn't search fields other than names in contacts, though. On the Treo it was very easy to "search" for every record that said "plumber". Not so easy here. But I'm syncing with my home computer (using the Missing Sync) and that allows full searches, and I expect this to be fixed in an upgrade.
  
  In the end, the beautiful clear screen, the ease of scrolling while I read an e-mail, the ability to read most every web page . . . won me over. And while the memory is limited, it's large enough that I don't carry my iPod around any more. And I've taken some great photos when I didn't have a "real" camera. And it's just a sort of slick, sexy gadget that's nice to use and fits comfortably in a smaller, tighter pocket. It also has much better sound quality (used as a phone) than my treo, and is more comfortable to hold as a phone, both of which are nice bonuses.
  
  So I'm keeping it and hoping that updates fix the flakiness and that 3rd party apps give me the e-mail flexibility I want. (and I'm still using my more full-featured treo e-mail program as a back-up, although I only access it rarely. It's really nice that old Treo apps almost all work, even ones that want to notify you or access the internet.)
  
  Updated on Mar 17, 2010

  The 1.4 update rocks. It was a little flakey when I first got the Pre, but now it's quite solid, and is a really fine multi-purpose gadget. I use it for email, for Facebook, for websufing, and as a phone, of course. The integration with Google calendars is terrific, and the synergy thing is surprisingly nice.
  
  The only issue I have is the battery life. It's much better than it was (how do they DO that?) but it's still barely enough for my use. I'm seriously thinking of buying the giant third-party battery, even though that doubles the size of the phone.

  Amazing Phone, Simply great.

  by sed51329 on July 6, 2009

  Pros: Multi-tasking is amazing, and seamless. Great home-screen search function. Ideal weight and size. AMAZING picture taking, even in a bar with lights going off everywhere. GPS Turn by Turn free on Sprint, and awesome.

  Cons: No video recording, can't change text message (alerts) ringtone. Keyboard took getting used too, but it's fine after a few days. Battery life leaves more to be desired.

  Summary: Best phone I've ever had. I tried the iPhone 3G, HTC Touch Pro, Samsung Instinct 2, Helio Ocean, Helio Ocean 2, Helio Fin, and now the Palm Pre.

  Awesome phone with great interface and features

  by bhartman35 on July 5, 2009

  Pros: 1) Multitasking
  2) Great touch interface
  3) Sleek and stylish phone
  4) Durability

  Cons: 1) Sprint network is spotty in my area.
  2) More apps would be nice.
  3) The keyboard isn't for everyone.

  Summary: The multitasking on the Pre is by far the greatest feature. I don't think you can fully appreciate the value of multitasking until you've seen it. Listening to Pandora in the background while you're looking for system updates and simultaneously responding to someone's email is just one example.
  
  The user interface is very fluid. I've experienced almost no delays when opening or switching between running apps. The CNET review says that the UI isn't as intuitive as the iPhone, but I'm left to wonder what iPhone they were using. Launching apps from the iPhone is probably a subjective, learned behavior, because I found the Pre's UI much easier to use than the iPhone's.
  
  Another thing that makes the Pre stand out is what Palm calls "Synergy". This technology allows de-duping of your contacts information across several online platforms (e.g., Facebook, Gmail, Outlook, etc.). It's a very clever feature, and really helps organize contacts and calendars. It's not perfect, of course. I've had to manually link a number of contacts I would've thought would've been automatically linked. But it still works very well.
  
  The reason I can't give the Pre 5 stars is because it's not all sunshine and roses. The most glaring problem with the phone is, somewhat predictably, the network. In My area, Sprint's network just isn't as robust as, say, AT&T's or Verizon's. The phone works everywhere I *need* it to work, so far, but if I did a lot of traveling, I'm not sure I'd get service reliably everywhere.
  
  Another sticking point is the keyboard. I can use the keyboard fine, but the keys aren't that big, and I can see people possibly having problems typing. The keyboard is better than on my old Centro, but it's definitely something you want to try out before deciding on your purchase.
  
  Lastly, the apps really need to be ramped up. Palm needs to release the SDK. From what I've seen, it doesn't look like writing apps would be all that hard, but releasing the SDK is an essential step, if Palm wants to get beyond the 30 or so apps that are available in the app store right now.
  
  All in all, I love my new Pre. Despite being rough around the edges in a few spots, it's by far the best cell phone I've ever used.
