Tracy and Matt's Blog Review The Asus P526
Posted by Nurhisham Hussein in "HARDWARE" @ 01:00 PM
"Having enjoyed the Asus M530w so much I have to say I was expecting more from the Asus P526 and was quite disappointed to be honest...The P526 just wasn't my cup of tea and I really struggled to get to grips with the lack of direction pad and the WM Professional OS on this style of device. That said, I know that this device will be popular given its form factor and integrated GPS. It's just a shame that these come at the expense of WiFi and, more importantly, 3G."
That conclusion just about says it all - slow processor, no wifi, no 3G, and some bugs in the software, make the P526 a strictly entry-level device (albeit with GPS). I can't help thinking that it would have made better sense to use the Standard OS, rather than the Professional version, with the design this device has.
