Loved my treo 650

Overall Rating:
4.5 out of 5
By: Frank Yang on Friday, March 02, 2007
From: Boyds, MD (United States)
Experience: 2 Years
Pros: Excellent form factor;
Long battery life;
Fully sync with MS outlook (calenda, contacts, emails, tasks, etc.)
View/Edit MS Word and Excel files

Cons: Speakerphone is so so.
Microphone -- The other side can barely hear me. This is a known issue with treo 650. I have to use bluetooth headset or earphone to bypass the internal mic issue.

Summary: This is my first Palm OS device.
I have been a Windows CE fans for many years, and have had multiple IPAQs and Microsoft smartphones. I am a Windows programmer and was hesitating to switch to Palm device (thought Palm OS was not as sophisticated as Windows) at the beginning, but I am very happy with the features of my treo 650. Palm OS consumes much less battery power than Windows OS.

Volume issue

Overall Rating:
4.3 out of 5
By: Roger Houthoofd on Thursday, December 14, 2006
From: Howell, MI (United States)
Experience: 90 Days
Pros: Intergrated Palm with Phone
Manual Switch for Speaker

Cons: Not Loud enough

Summary: The volume only reaches a normal volume.
Very hard or impossible to hear with surrounding noisy environments.
Somewhat improved with the use of a ear piece.
This is the first phone I have had that I couldn't turn it up to hear in a crowd.
Other than that problem, though, it is a great in every other way.

Great Phone

Overall Rating:
4.7 out of 5
By: Barbara Morgan on Sunday, October 08, 2006
From: Allentown, PA (United States)
Experience: 2 Years
Pros: Substantial phone feel. Palm os has many applications that can be added. Internet capable. Nice size screen and great sound. On and off sound switch so you don't have to go into your settings to adjust. Great ring tones. Secure digital card slot.

Cons: none!

Summary: This is a great phone and I wouldn't trade it for any other. I have the internet on it with some internet programs like Avant Go and MobiMate. You can adjust the font size for easy reading. Lots of programs can be added. Photos are easy to take and are unexpectedly good. Takes movies too! I absolutely LOVE it!

Awesomephone

Overall Rating:
5 out of 5
By: Amit Kurich on Monday, September 25, 2006
From: San Jose, CA (United States)
Experience: 90 Days
Pros: Awesome features like camera, Camcorder, PDA, BlueTooth

Cons: Cost

Summary: Treo 650 is an awesome phone with features like PDA (Diary), Camera, Camcorder, Fast internet browser and awesome handsfree speaker apart from the fact that its bluetooth enabled. Voice quality is amazing and the internet browser is really fast. You can also check your email on the phone. The camcorder and the camera is pretty good though they cant beat the original 5 MP but for immediate need , it would do. SD memory card can help increase the number of photos you can save. Its expensive and with 700P and 700W coming in, the 650 maynot be there for long!!! but it still is a very nice phone and i love mine.
