Review – Toshiba Portégé G900

Photo from the::unwired

[16 August] Nice review on the Toshiba Portégé G900 by Arne Hess is up on the::unired. I’m not too impressed with this machine due to the bugs found immediately after the release. But luckily with the quick patch released, seems much problems been resolved. Nontheless, the G900 spot a very nice 3″ WVGA touch screen at 800 x 480 pixels. So read on and decide for yourself how this one rank. Personally, with the upcoming release of the HTC Kaiser, the G900 only have a short product window life due to the limitations of the sepcs. Link to full review here, read it and form your own judgment.

[Updated: 28 August] pocketnow.com have a review (link) up on the new Toshiba Portégé G900 and their views on it aren’t that great. “I’ve personally been hoping for a VGA-enabed PDA phone for quite some time. Alas, the G900, while decent, just doesn’t live up to my expectations. The quirky behavior (even with the recent patch), lackluster design, and sharp edges really quickly outshone any highlights that I came across. It’s not a bad phone, just not a good phone, and probably wouldn’t be a unit I would readily recommend unless you really wanted fingerprint security on a WVGA device. Hopefully, Toshiba will take this unit back to the drawing board and bring back a really great unit. But until then, the WVGA dream will have to stay just that, a dream.” Check out the review though, tons of good pics.
