Round Robin: Android Casey's Final Palm Treo Pro Review

Fri Dec 26, 2008 - 3:08 PM EST - By Jennifer Chappell

Overview

Welcome back to the Smartphone Round Robin! Casey Chan over at our sister site Android Central has been using the Palm Treo Pro in the last round of the Round Robin. Casey is now finished with the Treo Pro and has written up his final review.

Casey liked the Treo Pro's hardware and said:

It is very much a modern device that captures the taste of the current generation's design-glossy, flush screen, attractive buttons-the Palm Treo Pro certainly looks better than any Palm before it and most current phones. Though it doesn't reach the iPhone or Bold level of sexiness, it's no more than a notch or two below.

I agree with Casey on that except for the part about the Bold. I find the Treo Pro just as sexy as the Bold. And I love the hardware on the iPhone 3G, Bold, and Treo Pro.

Casey said that he became of huge fan of the Treo Pro's form factor. He did have a slight problem with the cramped keyboard though. I think that many men have more of a problem since they have larger hands.

Casey liked WM on the Treo Pro. I found his take on comparing WM on the Treo Pro and on the Fuze interesting:

I think the Palm Treo Pro is a fine, fine Windows Mobile device. For some odd reason, I felt instantly more comfortable with Windows Mobile on the Treo Pro than I ever did on the AT&T Fuze. It was like two completely different experiences. With the Palm Treo Pro there was no disconnect between TouchFLO 3D and Windows Mobile, it was just strictly Windows Mobile and I think that works a lot better.
