HARDWARE Review and Comparisons. Its a Copy Paste. Keypad Text Words Per Minute (9.30) We were able to type 46.5 words per minute (WPM) on the Treo 755p's keyboard. This is very solid and right about what we expect to see from a good QWERTY keyboard. You can see below that most of our comparison devices, all of which have a QWERTY, also scored in this range. You'll also note that the Treo 755p did significantly better than the Palm Centro, that's the bonus of having the larger more comfortable keyboard. Cell Phone Words Per Minute Score Palm Treo 755p 46.5 9.30 Palm Centro 39.4 7.88 Palm Treo 750 43.8 8.76 BlackBerry Curve 8320 49.8 9.96 T-Mobile Shadow 37 7.40 Sidekick LX 46.1 9.22 T9 and Auto Complete (0.0) The Treo 755p lacks predictive text entry and auto-complete features when typing. One Hand Usability (0.0) For those who like to text with one hand we do our words per minute (WPM) test using just one hand. The Treo 755p saw the typical QWERTY keyboard penalty here as it plummeted to 25.7 WPM when typing one handed. QWERTY keyboards just aren't optimized for one handed typing and you see a similar drop with almost all of our comparison phones. The only exception is the T-Mobile Shadow, which has a hybrid keyboard with two letters per key that's easier to use one-handed. Cell Phone Words Per Minute Score Palm Treo 755p 25.7 5.14 Palm Centro 26.6 5.32 Palm Treo 750 24.8 4.96 BlackBerry Curve 8320 26.5 5.30 T-Mobile Shadow 32.4 6.48 Sidekick LX 22.1 4.42 Keypad Backlighting (5.0) The Treo 755p's keypad backlight is well lit, but we did detect some light leakage and the lighting isn't as good at the edges as it is in the middle. There's also a complete lack of lighting controls for the keyboard. Controls D-Pad/Joystick (8.0) The D-Pad on the Treo 755p is the same one found on the Treo 750, which means it's very comfortable, easy to use and is very accurate. We love the D-Pad on the Treo lineup and the 755p doesn't disappoint. Touch Screen (7.0) As with all Palm OS devices the Treo 755p has a touch screen. We found the touch screen to be pretty responsive and appreciate that most of the on screen buttons have been optimized to be used with your finger, which means you won't need to pull out the stylus very often. This is much better than Windows Mobile devices like the Treo 750, where a stylus is necessary for most operations. Jog Dial (0.0) The Treo 755p doesn't have a jog dial. Soft Buttons (0.0) As with all Palm OS devices the Treo 755p lacks soft buttons. Instead you are meant to tap the buttons found at the bottom of many screens. Volume Control (7.5) The volume buttons on the Treo 755p are big, easy to reach and give you good key travel and tactile feedback. Power and Standby (7.5) The power button on the Treo 755p is a secondary function of the end button. We found the button large and easy to use. Just tap on it once to put the phone into standby and tap it again to turn it back on. As we mentioned previously you can't turn the Treo 755p all the way off without taking the battery out so standby is all you get. You'll be using this button a lot and we're glad it's so comfortable. Other Buttons (10.0) In addition to the buttons discussed above the Treo 755p has the typical set of Palm OS specific buttons. to the left of the D-Pad is a calendar button and to the right is a messaging and home button. On the left side of the phone is a shortcut button that's assigned to voice memo by default and on the bottom right of the keyboard is a menu button. Many of these have secondary functions and many can also be re-assigned to fit your needs. Display Primary Screen Gross Resolution (8.50) As with other Palm OS devices the Treo 755p has a square 320 x 320 pixel screen. This is pretty high resolution with 25% more pixels than the typical 320 x 240 pixel screens we see on devices. It's also significantly better than the Treo 750, which also has a square screen but was limited by the operating system to a 240 x 240 pixel resolution. The high pixel resolution means that things look sharp on screen. Cell Phone Resolution Score Palm Treo 755p 320 x 320 8.50 Palm Centro 320 x 320 8.50 Palm Treo 750 240 x 240 5.00 BlackBerry Curve 8320 320 x 240 8.00 T-Mobile Shadow 320 x 240 8.00 Sidekick LX 400 x 240 8.50 Primary Screen Pixels per Inch (9.43) Pixels per inch (PPI) is a measure of pixel density. Higher pixel density means sharper images on screen and richer colors. Lower pixel density can lead to the screen looking washed out. The Treo 755p has a pixel density of 188.6 PPI, which is very good. You'll note below that only the Centro did better in this area, because it has the same screen resolution but a smaller display. By contrast you can really see the difference between the Treo 755p and the Treo 750 here as the 750 lags far behind in terms of pixel density. Cell Phone Pixels Per Inch Score Palm Treo 755p 188.6 9.43 Palm Centro 205.7 10.29 Palm Treo 750 141.7 7.09 BlackBerry Curve 8320 164.6 8.23 T-Mobile Shadow 153.8 7.69 Sidekick LX 152.4 7.62 Screen Physical Size (0.0) The Treo 755p has a very comfortable 2.4 inch display. This is standard for Treo devices and provides enough screen real estate for most actions. That's not to say we wouldn't mind having a larger display like the Sidekick LX, but of course that would require a bigger device too. Cell Phone Size Diagonal (inches) Score Palm Treo 755p 2.4 6.00 Palm Centro 2.2 5.50 Palm Treo 750 2.4 6.00 BlackBerry Curve 8320 2.43 6.08 T-Mobile Shadow 2.6 6.50 Sidekick LX 3 7.50 Screen Brightness (6.90) The Treo 755p's screen measured 58 lux, which is a little on the low side. To test screen brightness we point the phone's browser at a blank white screen, turn the brightness up to maximum and use a lux meter to measure the brightness. You can see below that we had a couple of phones with over 100 lux, which is near the top of what we've seen, with the Treo 755p much nearer to our lower scoring comparison phones. This has an impact on the legibility of the screen in bright light, as we'll discuss next. On the plus side the Treo 755p does allow you to select from 16 different lighting levels, but there's no light sensor to automatically adjust the backlight. Cell Phone Brightness (lux) Score Palm Treo 755p 58 6.90 Palm Centro 54 6.90 Palm Treo 750 60 5.75 BlackBerry Curve 8320 105 9.50 T-Mobile Shadow 54 2.70 Sidekick LX 106 14.05 Screen Bright Light Performance (3.0) The Treo 755p's poor screen brightness has a serious impact on it's legibility in bright light. To test this we shine 3000 lux on the phone's screen and judge how legible it is. The Treo 755p performed pretty poorly in this test. We could barely make out icons and you can forget about reading text. The fact that the Treo 755p has a touch screen, which tend to perform poorly in bright light situations, also contributes to this poor performance. Color Depth (0.0) The Treo 755p's screen can display sixty-five thousand colors. This is pretty par for the course and we would have liked to a screen with more colors on Palm's latest device. Sixty-five thousand colors should be sufficient for most users, but more colors would have provided wider color range when viewing photos and videos or playing games. Cell Phone Colors (thousands) Score Palm Treo 755p 65 6.00 Palm Centro 65 6.00 Palm Treo 750 65 6.00 BlackBerry Curve 8320 65 6.00 T-Mobile Shadow 65 6.00 Sidekick LX 65 6.00 Ports & Storage Power & Data Ports (2.0) The Treo 755p uses the same multi-connecter found on all Treo devices to connect the phone to a computer. On the one hand this is good because it allows users to use the wide range of Treo accessories that rely on the multi-connector. On the other hand we pretty much hate proprietary connectors and wish that Palm would finally just move on to a standard Mini USB connector. The Treo 755p's power port is also proprietary, guess what we think of that. Headphone & Jack Compatibility (2.0) Moving away from proprietary ports the Treo 755p has a 2.5mm headset jack. Although not as good as a 3.5mm jack it's still much better than the proprietary headphone jack we see on a lot of phones. Unfortunately you'll have to use a wired set of headphones with the Treo 755p as it doesn't support wireless stereo Bluetooth headphones. Internal Storage (1.0) The Treo 755p has 60MB of user accessible storage, which should be more than sufficient for contacts, calendar appointments and a few additional applications. If you want to store multimedia on your device you should go out and get an expansion card. Expansion Slot & Format (8.0) The Treo 755p uses Mini SD cards, which is a departure from most phones that use the Micro SD standard. That said it's not a departure we're unhappy about as Mini SD cards are larger and more difficult to lose than their smaller cousins. The card slot on the Treo 755p is just like that found on the Treo 750. It's on the left side of the phone and has a plastic cover that's easy to open up. The slot itself is spring loaded and easy to get cards in and out of. The Treo 755p also supports higher capacity cards so you can go up to four or even eight gigabytes of data with an expansion card.

Battery review of Treo 755P. Its copy paste Call Time (6.06) To test the battery performance of the Treo 755p during a call we make a phone call using Skype and pipe an audio book over the connection to simulate conversation. The Treo 755p lasted 5 hours 3 minutes in our talk time test, which is an above average time. You can see below that a couple of phones did better than the Treo 755p but most performed worse. In particular we found that the Treo 755p performed better in this test than the Windows Mobile Treo 750, which has the same form factor and the same size battery. Cell Phone Talk Time Score Palm Treo 755p 5 hours 3 mins 6.06 Palm Centro 4 hours 8 mins 4.96 Palm Treo 750 3 hours 58 mins 4.76 BlackBerry Curve 8320 7 hours 24 mins 8.88 T-Mobile Shadow 4 hours 5 mins 4.90 Sidekick LX 5 hours 36 mins 6.72 Music Playback (6.04) To test battery life while playing back music we set a test album to play repeatedly and time how long the phone lasts before the battery runs out. The Treo 755p lasted 8 hours 23 minutes in our music playback test. Once again we've seen better from other handsets, as you can see below, but don't let our comparison handsets fool you. Most phones out there don't last this long and we were pretty happy with the Treo 755p's performance here. On the other hand you'll note that one of the handsets that beats out the Treo 755p is the Windows Mobile Treo 750. So far these handsets, which only differ in their operating systems, are tied in our battery tests. Cell Phone Music Playback Time Score Palm Treo 755p 8 hours 23 mins 6.04 Palm Centro 6 hours 47 mins 4.88 Palm Treo 750 15 hours 23 mins 11.08 BlackBerry Curve 8320 12 hours 2 mins 8.66 T-Mobile Shadow 4 hours 28 mins 3.22 Sidekick LX 10 hours 4 mins 7.25 Web Browsing (5.96) Web browsing battery performance is tested by pointing the phone's browser at a web page that is set to refresh automatically every ten seconds. We make sure the screen stays on and see how long the phone lasts. The Treo 755p performed admirably in this test at 4 hours 58 minutes. You can see below that only the Curve and the Sidekick LX performed better on this test, and both of those handsets use the much more battery efficient EDGE network. By contrast the Treo 755p uses Sprint's high speed EVDO network. For a comparison to another phone that uses a 3G network just look at how poorly the Treo 750 did on AT&T's 3G network in this test. It looks like the Treo 755p comes out the winner between those two very similar handsets in terms of battery life. Cell Phone Browsing Time Score Palm Treo 755p 4 hours 58 mins 5.96 Palm Centro 4 hours 22 mins 5.24 Palm Treo 750 3 hours 3 mins 3.66 BlackBerry Curve 8320 9 hours 43 mins 11.66 T-Mobile Shadow 3 hours 19 mins 3.98 Sidekick LX 8 hours 54 mins 10.68 Idle Time unscored In order to deliver reviews in a timely fashion we don't test standby time for cell phones. Palm reports the Treo 755p's idle time at 240 hours

Muahhh !!! Thats what we call a decent mobile phone.

I give Go Ahead to Mr KSHAH. As from his post other GSM users will be Benefit and traffic on forum will increase.

Well sometime they launch LOW cost Product also. Now u get same features as touch in 150$ device can be good concept.

First u uninstal/delete all Snapper mails, from card and phone. Install this file, open and register with any number, it wil reject code and will give u correct code. Copy it down reset the device, delete snapper, and install normal version and register with Key given by KG snappermail_keygen.rar

This document by IBM will help installing what and where for JAVA V Machine. WEME_5.7_User_Guide.pdf

Hi guys, can anyone tell me where can I get a SERIAL cable for the Treo 700p. Any indication on the cost would be appreciated. Thanks Only KSHAH can help u.

I am sure people buying Nokia E71 will be more happy than BB BOLD users.

yes it will work with TATA as well.

We get External Adaptor pin in box. something like NOKIA charger pin. Its same and support LG charger instead of NOKIA standard Chargers.

@ Dkaile Ur phone already support SDHC, i tried SDHC 4GB in one of my Treos and it was working, What firmware is urs 1.04 or 1.07 ?? Mine is 1.07 though.

Good comparison. I use Smart movie for videos, and Ptunes 4.6 for music. Documents to go 10. Card reader, Call REC, Font Smoother, Group Text, Ringo, Shark MSG, Treo MSGR, USB Modem, Solitaire, Bejeweled, Paint ball 2 and Sprite Backup. Phone Technician increase volume beyond Phones limit. Xiino is better browser thn Default one.
