Digital camera reviews of Dell Axim X51v - Handheld - Windows Mobile 5.0 - 3.7" color TFT ( 480 x 640 ) - Bluetooth, Wi-Fi
Digital camera Review: Dont do it!
Summary: 1 Stars
I have wanted to smash this with a hammer many times. I've done many of the fixes from various websites and had some lessening of frustration, but what remains is still great. Hang & crash ALL THE TIME! 2 or 3 times per day!Digital camera Review: Dreadful rubbish
Summary: 1 Stars
I've owned a DELL laptop for a couple of years with more than satisfactory results. Then I thought Dell's so far "acclaimed" PDA will somehow went the same direction, and selected it as replacement for my lost HP 1945 Pocket PC.
Terrible mistake.
Since the very first day, I've been unable to sync it via USB cable. I've managed to do it via bluetooth, but then it only can sync with my PC. Also, a month after i've purchased it, the power on/off switch started being defective, which leaded to a complete collapse of the PDA and a full replacement for a "brand new one" (Dell customer service still very good, must say) some weeks after. Since then , the "brand new" PDA keeps restarting every since and when as you turn it on, sometimes switchs off suddenly, drains battery in record time and constantly shuts off the Bluetooth port. Also, sometimes displays a message stating "battery latch has been opened! the system was put on a stand by condition to prevent data loss". Not to mention the fact that is probably the heaviest PDA available in the market, which is definitively a handicap when you spend the whole day in meetings changing places. Not to mention the craddle port, which seems made of cheap plastic and broke within a few months of use. Dell reliability reputation has going down the pan in this issue, and as far as i'm concerned, will sell this device as soon as i have an oportunity and probably purchase an HP or maybe give a try with a blackberry.
Digital camera Review: Dude, this thing sucks!
Summary: 2 Stars
This thing is just like a real Dell PC with a Windows OS--including the bugs, glitches, hangs, quirks, frustrations, and crashes! It's uncanny. After all the required and non-required patches (which take forever--and good luck navigating Dell's website!), it still perfoms like a steaming turd. Takes forever to boot up. Hit the power button and wait 20 seconds or so for the stupid "Dell" screen to go away. Now you enter your password, then wait 10 or 15 seconds for the numbers that you tapped to show up on screen. Now you've only got 10 or 15 seconds more to wait before the thing becomes responsive to your input. I got this thing so I could pull it out of my pocket and take notes/look something up quickly. I can do these things--just not quickly. I had a palm before this, and I never had a single issue. Hit the power button, then open your application. Instantly. Amazing. Do yourself a favor and get a palm or maybe an HP (haven't tried an HP yet, but you couldn't do worse than this turd.)
Dell even inclues their crappy over-seas tech support! Go ahead, leave them a message on their site. Will they get back to you? Who knows! They never wrote me back. Wow, did I feel important.
Digital camera Review: Everything fine
Summary: 4 Stars
Everything was in perfect state. The PDA had the latest official ROM version, allthought I upgraded to a newer one (A17). Is very nice to use Skype from this device. The missing star is because the CD was not included, so I had to download everything.Digital camera Review: Exceeding expectations...!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great PDA. Although I purchased it with some hesitation, I then loved it so much as it exceeded my expectations. I really recommend this if you do not want to carry out a laptop with you as it can almost give you what a laptop gives.
