Palm Pixi Plus

The baby brother to the Pre finally arrives in the UK. Is it the WebOS device we've all been waiting for?

Palm Pixi Plus review

Can the Pixi out-do the Pre with less tech?

webOS is a decent platform ; Keyboard better than the Pre ; Stylish design ; Light and pocket-friendly ; Relatively speedy ; Responsive touchscreen

Camera suffers from downgrade ; Can't handly multi-tasking as well ; Quiet speakers ; Poor App Catalog ; Smaller screen poor for browsing and watching video

The Palm Pixi Plus – the Pre's dinky sidekick – makes its UK debut and is the latest smartphone to offer a scaled down, affordable alternative to a premium handset.

Palm Pixi Plus

Palm's Pixi mobile never made it to the UK, but that hasn't stopped the company, recently bought by HP, releasing the follow up, the Palm Pixi Plus on O2 and hopefully other operators. But has it been worth the wait, and should you opt for this over...

Small, Light, runs webOS, Wi-Fi, 3G

Not as fast as we had hoped, battery life not great

The Palm Pixi Plus is like a BlackBerry Curve in that it is likely to be your first venture into the wonderful world of smartphones. On that front, the OS does well to bring you into the fold without over-complicating things. The touchscreen is a great...

The original Pixi never touched down in the UK, but its polished brother has arrived bearing Wi-Fi. Is it a QWERTY contender?

Sleek, slight and featherweight, the Pixi Plus is a fun QWERTY phone if not quite as affordable as it should be

Palm Pixi Plus

A few months after the Palm Pre came out Palm launched the Pixi. Unfortunately the Pixi didn't have Wi-Fi, so Palm came up with the Palm Pixi Plus. Read our review to see if Wi-Fi has made the Palm Pixi Plus worthy of your money

Palm Pixi Plus review

Other than that, the phone is identical in specs and design to its predecessor the Palm Pixi. While the keyboard isn't perfect and WebOS performance can be sluggish, the Palm Pixi Plus is a solid, inexpensive smartphone - and Wi-Fi only bolsters its...

If you want an unobtrusive smartphone for messaging and social networking, however, the lithe Palm Pixi Plus is a good fit - even if the keyboard needs some work.

Palm Pixi Plus PDA Review

PDAs have raised the bar when it comes to telecommunication and computing at the smaller scale. No wonder why there is a lot of zealotry regarding these pocket computers which have of late transformed the meaning of computing. On the other hand, The...

The whole review is quite clearly a reflection of what we think of the Palm Pixi Plus. It has everything in it and for everyone. It is also priced quite reasonably. Hence, we recommend you to go for it since we already know that by now, you have...

Palm Pixi Plus Review by 3G.co.uk

The Pixi Plus compares well with the iPhone when it comes to simplicity and being intuitive, and with a smaller chassis and a smaller price tag it's hard to beat

: A lack of apps and a mediocre camera.

If you love the iPhone because it is easy to use and intuitive, the Pixi Plus will suit, with the added bonus of a smaller chassis and a smaller price tag. For this reason it’s hard to beat. But, if you want to choose from loads of apps and need a...

Palm - Pixi Plus

Palm was recently bought by Hewlett Packard, and there is some speculation as to what will happen to the company's smartphones and its Web OS Operating system. While events play themselves out we have the Palm ...

The Palm Pixi Plus has a superb operating system, is very intuitive to use and yet is quirky at the same time. The screen is a bit too small for good multimedia use, and the keyboard not the best to type on. Stylish? Yes. Ergonomic? Not really.
