Palm Pixi / User Reviews

Overall, I'm delighted with the Pixi. I was a Centro user and while researching, found that very few reviews focussed on the issues a Centro user might face beyond data transfer.

So here goes:

Pluses

Ability to see multiple Calendars (iPhone friends drool at this one) and all your Contacts.

Ability... More

In case you couldn't tell by the title, this phone is not my friend. I *hate* it. I had a Palm for two years before this and *loved* it, so I thought this would be an easy transition. Not so.

Pro: I love how it syncs with Google Calendar and Contacts. It's nice to be able to update either... More

Switched from a BlackBerry and love this little phone. Even though it is smaller than my BB, the screen is larger.

Pros: good keyboard; very nice display; webOS is incredible; nice apps; push email excellent; browsing great; multitasking fun; touchstone charger is GREAT idea; very responsive touch... More

This phone replaced the Samsung Intercept (I purchased three of those and returned them after a few weeks, please see my review on that piece of garbage). My wife and daughter both use this phone and it is an excellent, tiny, well designed little device. Perfect for my girls and the WebOS is very very... More

I'm havin a helluva time using this thing. I'm not stupid, but I can't figure out how 2 get ringtones on it, how 2 change the alerts 4 incoming texts (not even sure u can), I don't like the fact that it locks after only a few seconds. I'm... More

This phone was $24.99, so much of my review will be based on that super low price. If I had paid $100.00 or more, this might be a different story. I've had this phone for about 5 months now so I'm pretty familiar with it.

Ok, first, the good features: It has a full QWERTY keyboard. It... More

My sprint contract was up and I was debating between the Palm Pixi or the Blackberry Curve 8530. The Palm Pixi was so much more appealing to me. I love the size, the touchscreen, the free apps (I've downloaded almost 30 and counting!), the keyboard (it looks small but is actually really nice and... More

The Palm Pixi is great little phone but IF you live on your phone

and basically need a computer in your pocket. ~THEN STOP READING~

this isn't the Iphone or droid

The Pixi works best with people who occasionally enjoy toying with

their phones when they are bored in a waiting room or in the... More

Let me start this review off by saying, I am a Palm fan. I loved my Treo 755p with gusto for over two years. So when it finally went belly up and two replacement phones from Sprint did the same after 1 month - I figured it was time to upgrade to bigger (Smaller?) and better things. Boy, was I wrong!... More

I have an ipod touch at home that I use daily and extensively. And My wife has an HTC Hero with Android.

And since I received this Palm Pixi with WebOS, I got completely addicted to its amazing simplicity.

True you are limited in terms of applications, but you the most useful ones are available for... More

I had the Palm Pixi for a little over a month now and it works really well. For me, everything is great. Before I bought the phone, I wasn't sure about buying it though Amazon, but everything turned out fine. The first phone I received didn't work, and Amazon replaced very quickly. Since... More

My wife has had this phone for a few months and she loves it! This phone has the best form factor of any phone, slim, GREAT keyboard. Excellent for a heavy texter or for email. Multi-tasking is great as well and you don't appreciate it until you use it. Web browsing on the pixi is a pleasure... More

I have owned the phone for almost two months now, and I came from using a blackberry, soo.. from comparison. this phone is pretty wack.

I had the phone for over a month and it is proven to be a solid and fun phone so far. I really like the webOS software. I might have been jealous over the iphone apps but since I have an i touch, I can play games and use apps on that one. The very cool thing is the universal search. You just start... More

I've had Palm smartphones for at least the past 7+ years and I have always liked them so when it came to upgrade my Sprint Palm Centro in November'09 I went for the Sprnt Palm Pixi. Here are my pros/cons after using this phone for 3 months:

Pros:

+Form Factor: I got this phone because... More

I absolutely adore my pixi. I went through three phones trying to get to one I liked and am head over heels for the pixi. First I tried the reclaim, loved everything but the keyboard. It was so hard to type. Switched to the Incognito, it was too complicated, big and I didn't like the keyboard... More

I just finished returning my 2nd Pixi back to Amazon.com. The first Pixi kept shutting itself off randomly and the second kept freezing up and I couldn't download apps. Both phones also had some issues with the keyboard back-lighting - the back lighting was uneven making viewing the diminutive keys... More

This phone is great! in comparison to the palm pre, it is almost equal, except for the lack of wifi (which is not that important to me). i like the fact that the phone integrates all my calendars and contacts from aol, gmail, facebook, etc. its VERY easy to use and set up. it has a touch screen with... More

The battery life lasts about a day, and the output for the charger is a bit tricky, but these are pretty much my only minor complaints. There is also an external wireless charger you can buy separately. However I haven't tried it. It takes getting used to and playing around with, and some of that... More

This phone combines a great size and feel along with a great set of features.

I will break down this review into the pros and cons of the Palm Pixi. Please note that this review is comparing the phone to all other phones, not a comparison between the Pre. This is for people who want to know how the... More
