Dell Streak (Android 2.2) review

Dell's five-inch Android offering now comes with Froyo

Fantastic screen ; Great browser ; Good build quality ; Loud and clear speaker

Too big for some ; Poor on-screen keyboard ; No micro-USB ; Slightly laggy interface

Just over eight months have passed since we first looked at the Dell Streak. An impressive five-inch device with 2GB of built-in memory, powered by a Qualcomm SnapDragon 8250 1GHz processor, the Dell Streak ticks all the boxes as far as specs are...

Dell Streak 7 review

An aggressive pricing strategy - in the US at least - means that the Dell Streak 7 is a lot cheaper than the Samsung Galaxy Tab on the same carrier, but the device's numerous weaknesses might not outweigh the value price.

In its initial US incarnation, the Dell Streak 7 is a tablet to consider if cost is your paramount consideration. Had this model come out at the same time the original Streak shipped, excusing its faults would have been easier. But I expect better of a...

Dell Streak 7 Review

"Dell's Streak 7 is a seven-inch tablet, powered by an Nvidia Tegra T20 dual core 1GHz processor."

Video chat is possible via a 1.3-megapixel front-mounted camera, and on the back, there's an auto-focusing 5-megapixel camera with flash.

Dell Streak 7 Android tablet

Review Despite the original Streak [1] being one of the first devices of its type on the market, Dell's Android tablet didn't really set the word alight. A less than fresh version of Android, a high price tag and a distance between the screen corners...

Better late than never, the Dell Streak 7 fixes most of the problems found in its predecessor, at a much reduced price. With a quick CPU, plenty of storage and a near enough up-to-date version of Android, it makes for a convenient hand-held connected...

Dell Streak 7 Android Tablet Review

The original Dell Streak came down with a bit of identity crisis; as the 5″ device did not belong either to the tablet family or its Smartphone cousins, and ended up in the hands of very few consumers. However, its big brother, the Streak 7 has escaped...

Though the Dell Streak 7 has better set of specifications than the original Streak, its experience has not taken any big leap. This is mainly because it runs the same software and in spite of having a bigger display, the low resolution does not enhance...

Dell Streak 7 tablet review

Make no mistake: Dell will not be sitting out the Tablet Warsthe way it did during the Struggle Against Smartphones. No, Dell isfighting, and by that I mean it is intent on pouring money intowhat is obviously a hole of futility.

Fast. Cheap

Mattel Football had a better screen. Dismal battery life.Crashed twice -- once going dark for an hour -- in the first day oftesting

Dell Streak 7 review

The Dell Streak 7 is a study in contrasts. This Nvidia Tegra 2-based Android tablet counts smart and subtly sharp design among its strengths, unfortunately its unimpressive display and inelegant software implementation constrain its appeal. Aggressive...

Aggressive and highly competitive pricing makes the Dell Streak 7 a tablet to consider if cost is your paramount consideration. Had this model come out at the same time the original Streak shipped, excusing its faults would have been easier. But I...

Dell Streak Review - Android Tablet or Mobile Phone?

Dell were quick to tag the Streak as a 'tablet' in the build up to its release. Take a look at the box, and underneath that gaping photoshop error is the text "Dell 5″ Widescreen Tablet". For me, though, that sentence in itself is somewhat...
