The Palm Pixi, recently announced by Palm, appears to be a smaller version of one of their other handsets the Pre. It is compact in size being only 111 mm x 55 mm wide and 10 mm thick. The handset weighs 99 grams. It offers a multitude of options that will make it an appealing handset when released. One of these is the full QWERTY keyboard which is simple and effective to use. Another is its TFT touch screen.
The phones touch screen is a 2.6 inch TFT display screen that displays 256,000 colours at a pixel resolution of 320 x 400 pixels. Imagery is displayed with clarity and vivid colour. The phone also comes with an accelerometer sensor which ensures images are displayed in the correct aspect by automatically rotating images. To complete the ensemble, a proximity sensor automatically turns off the phone when not in use to ensure longevity of the battery.
The camera which is built into this phone is a 2 mega pixel camera which operates at a resolution of 1600 x 1200 pixels. An in built flash offers the means to illuminate objects to be photographed. This is a useful addition and serves the handset well. For those who prefer the medium of video, this is also provided. The phone comes with an internal memory capacity of 8 Gb which is large enough to accommodate most requirements.
The phone comes with numerous means of connectivity which includes GPRS, EDGE as well as Blue tooth and USB which means that the ability to share files and synchronise with a PC are available. The phone comes with additional features such as an MP3 player, FM radio, organiser and document viewer.
The Palm Pixi is an exciting prospect. It offers a wealth of useful functions whilst being compact in size. The phone delivers outstanding performance by virtue of its use of the Qualcomm MSM7627 600 MHz processor and a dedicated graphics accelerator. Its Palm operating system is the Web OS system which is responsive and reliable. Its release is eagerly anticipated.
