PocketNow and MobileTechReviews Each Weigh-In on the Dell Axim X51v
Posted by Ekkie Tepsupornchai in "ARTICLE" @ 09:00 AM
I know. I know. We tend to be rather obsessive-compulsive about our posting topics. One day, we can't stop yapping about the HTC Universal and the next day it's all about the Dell Axim X51v. Well, we can't help it if the Dell Axim X51v reviews are flowing like water now! First, we start off with the PocketNow X51v review which is STACKED with pictures, comparison photos, and screenshots. Overall, they seem to love the device. Most of their gripes were focused on Dell's featureset (e.g. no phone capabilities, no hard drive, no Bluetooth networking profile) as opposed to any issues with the quality and/or execution of the device itself.
Next up is the MobileTechReview X51v review which is much heavier with the commentary than it is with the pictures. You'll find some rather detailed benchmarks to complement the analysis. Overall, they also seem to be pleased with the device. However, as was the case with Mr. Dunn's review (posted earlier in the day), they just can't find any compelling reasons for current X50v owners to upgrade. So what do you guys think? Is this a case of Dell shortchanging themselves or is this all about Dell continuing a great thing?
