Review: T-Mobile Sidekick iD

 

It's easy to see why MySpace moppets love the Sidekick: It's cute, uncomplicated, and cheap. It's also an IM addict's dream: The wide, tactile keyboard...

Trackball and icon-based interface make for blissful navigation. Decent gameplay with D-pad. Nearly eight hours of talk time

No camera, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, memory card slot, or audio player. Stuck in slow gear on GPRS network. Just had its cool factor stolen by iPhone

Sidekick ID

 

The latest member of T-Mobile's Sidekick family of cell phone/PDA hybrids for people who'd just as soon type as talk targets a youthful, budget-minded crowd.

Terrific keyboard Customizable, colorful design

No camera or expansion slot So-so sceen

We'll be testing the Sidekick ID's battery life soon, but as yet I have no sense of how the removable and rechargeable battery will hold up. Still, if you're looking for a deal on a phone with good messaging and e-mail features--perhaps for a younger...

Extremely easy to use. Push e-mail. Removable, reconfigurable covers. Lower price.

It has the feature set of a 2004 device.

T-Mobile Sidekick iD Review

 

The Sidekick iD is the latest entry in this line of consumer-oriented smartphones. It uses the same form-factor as the Sidekick 3, but to lower the cost many of the features of this earlier model have been taken out.

Landscape-oriented screen and keyboard, Outstanding battery life

T-Mobile Sidekick iD Review

 

Way back in 2003, I reviewed the monochrome HipTop from Danger, Inc., which T-Mobile had just picked up as the Sidekick. Although I was steeped in the Palm OS at that point, I had to admit that the Sidekick was the best fusion of phone, Internet, and...

I'm still thinking about giving the Sidekick iD a place in my pocket, but I may have to check out the Sidekick 3 first. I really thought I'd never settle for less than a Treo, but I have to admit that Danger's simpler, wireless sync approach is compelling

Horizontal screen design and keyboard feel good

no camera
