The Palm Centro(CDMA counterpiece to the GSM Treo 500v) has just been reviewed by CNET’s Bonnie Cha – and scored 7.0 out of 10 points like the Treo 680 did. For comparison, the Treo 600 scored 8.0, and the 700p managed to get 7.7.
Bonnie Cha has found the Centro’s size and form factor ‘a nice compromise between a regular cell phone and a business smartphone’. The keyboard is said to be too cramped for large-thumbed users; the 1.3 Megapixel camera is said to deliver decent images.
Overall, CNET concludes that The Palm Centro isn’t the innovative product we were looking for from the company, but with its slimmer size, ease of use, and affordable price tag, the Centro is a good option for those looking for their first smartphone.
What do you think?
P.S. A good friend recently told us that a GSM version of the Centro is on its way…so a TamsPalm review may be upcoming!
