Palm Pre 2 Tracy and Matt
Software is great but the hardware is lacking
Palm Pre 2

Patrick from Tracy and Matt ( about 1 year ago )

N/A

It definitely is a good iteration on the original but I still don't think that it has enough to stay competitive in the 2011 smartphone market. Consumers generally think that good quality hardware = good product, and if Palm/HP continues to produce phones that are lacking in the hardware department,... More

Palm Pre 2 (CDMA) PC Magazine
It's fun, but far from cutting edge
Palm Pre 2 (CDMA)

6/10

After several months of delays, HP's Palm Pre 2 is finally available on Verizon. Like the first version, the svelte Palm Pre 2 is a finely crafted smartphone with a beautiful operating system. But the Pre 2 suffers from a thin app catalog, a cramped design, and last year's hardware. It compares poorly... More

Palm Pre 2 (CDMA) PhoneArena
It would only appeal to current Palm users looking for an upgrade to their webOS experience
Palm Pre 2 (CDMA)

from PhoneArena ( about 1 year ago )

8/10

Overall, there is a lot to like about the Palm Pre 2. We like its overall shape, though its design is a bit dated now, but it’s easy to hold and feels comfortable in the hand. The improved webOS 2.0 software and 1GHz processor makes the Pre 2 feel faster and more powerful than the Pre Plus. But... More

Palm Pre 2 (CDMA) Cnet
A very capable smartphone, but it's worth waiting for the HP Pre 3, which will offer hardware improvements to complement the software upgrade
Palm Pre 2 (CDMA)

Bonnie Cha from Cnet ( about 1 year ago )

7/10

First off, it's been a while since we've had a WebOS device in for review, so it was really great to have one back in our hands. It reminded us how much we love the mobile operating system for its multitasking abilities, data management, and search functionality, and the new enhancements only make it... More

Palm Pre 2 InfoSync
This is one phone that put us on spin cycle despite its flaws
Palm Pre 2

Mike Perlman from InfoSync ( about 1 year ago )

8/10

The Palm Pre 2 is a hidden gem of a phone buried beneath thick igneous rock layers of Android interfaces. The Pre 2's WebOS 2.0 integration and 1GHz OMAP processor are its main entrees, and those features boosted an already great phone even higher to the smartphone gods. We loved Palm's interface—it's... More

Not worth the money or time
Palm Pre

Both my wife and I got this about two years ago, thank goodness that we got the warranty because my wife has had to send hers in three or four times and I have had to send mine in twice, for screen issues, button issues, and both for just randomly deciding to not work in any way shape or form. Right... More

Not the best phone
Palm Pre

I got this phone because i liked the look of it, and it worked great for a while. Then suddenly after 5 months, it kept freezing, then the phone went "offline" and would not start back up. I read that a lot of people are having this problem, and the only solution is for the company to give... More

I am very disappointed with the Palm Pre and the service I've got. This phone is not compatible with alot of apps .I don't know why Bell would sell a phone that isn't even compatible with Bell mobility to get Ringtones off of or some other apps. When I went to change this phone for an... More
