Its has been more than two weeks I am attached to All new ASUS P320 PDA phone. I would say Asus as a new entrant in India Mobile market has done well with this product.
To go on with the merits
- It is sleekest windows mobile in the market till now
- Aesthetics is good.
- It operates on windows mobile 6.1 O.S, most HTC's at this range doesn't have 6.1
- GPS receiver adds value. GPS when used with Google maps is a wonder for first timers.
- Windows live update, connect to the internet and update. I have not yet used this feature yet.
- Price,Its close to 13k
.....and the Demerits
- One of the greatest problem I have seen with the phone till now is, when it is in sleep, sometimes , sleeps for ever :(. Yes on a stanby-mode it is not able to receive signals. I have obsereved this behaviour with my phone 4 or 5 time within 2 weeks and I am not sure if any of the other users also face similar problems.
- Alarm is so weird. It rings as it likes :( 2 times happened till now.
- So flimsy, may not withstand fall-downs. Till now it din't happen.
- As with all Windows mobile its response is slow
- ASUS today screen can't show time in multiple formats
The Verdict:
I would say its a deal, worth money provided not all mobiles has demerit 1 mentioned. For first timers this is a best PDA . I am analyzing the problem, hope a firmware reinstallation would solve the problem. let me know if anyone has similar problem.
