    Disadvantages Disadvantages Battery life not as advertised but still beefy enough

    Dell Axim X51v 624mhz The Dell X51v comes in different forms, this review is based on the X51v model with the 624mhz processor, I have had my PDA now for little over a month, its primary use is as a GPS Satellite Navigation device when it is coupled with my GPS device by Bluetooth. My original idea was to buy a Sat Nav system, however after looking at the ever falling prices and raising specifications of PDA's I decided to go down this route. Whilst more expensive, the PDA provides lots more abilities than just buying a Sat Nav device. For those who are unsure of what a PDA is, PDA stands for ... more

    Advantages Advantages Build Quality; Speed, Battery Life

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Cost of Additions, Accessories, Charging from USB

    I purchased the Dell Axim primarily to use on the factory floor for access to EMails, Statistical Data from Excel, and the usual Calendar and Contact applications. It does all I expected of it without fuss. It is very quick loading programs and files, the Windows interface is relatively easy to use, although getting my head around the various internet and wireless settings took some time - however that is a feature of the operating system, not the PDA. I like the fact that it is quick and easy to switch from portrait to landscape modes ( good for Excel docs ) There are 4 button controls on the ... more

    Advantages Advantages Cheapish

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Dreadful battery life,

    An interesting product. I had an O2 XDA PDA/phone before this and decided to take the plunge. The device is poorly built. If you are considering one adn like good engineering, please go to Comet or Currys and have a feel of a Dell. Their desktop PCs are the same - cheap, poorly designed housings with painted plastic chrome that wears quickly and bits that break easily. The unit itself is better although the buttons are unreliable, especially the contacts button which has to be pushed and held hard in order to work. The unit has also started to play up recently and freeze. After many attempts ... more

    2 Stars Quick review of Dell Axim X51v 624Mhz by cricket6186 27/07/2007
    I bought this about a year ago. At first I really enjoyed it because the screen was very easy to use and to me that was important. What I found a bit annoying was the fact that when using the tiny pencil to type information into the address book it would constantly scroll or pop you somewhere else. That was frustrating. Synchronizing your Outlook with it was easy and nice. But I would also agree about the battery life which was terrible for the amount of money you pay. Within 8 months the screen scrambled up and never worked again. I ... more

    Advantages Advantages compact, intuitive

    Disadvantages Disadvantages low battery life

    I purchased this PDA because at the time i did not have a laptop and i wanted something for browsing whilst not at a PC. My first impressions of this product were that it is really user friendly. within minutes i had registered it to myself and was browsing the internet wirelessly (via my own wireless router). Look and feel: i think this is a quite good looking product, it fits nicely in your hand and the pen that comes with it is surprisingly sturdy and doesnt get sticky if you have it in your hand for a while. Memory: the base memory ont he PDA is of an ok size, enough to store documents and ... more
