Toshiba Portege G810 reviewed
by admin on Jul.03, 2008, under Toshiba
Hopes had been reasonably high that Toshiba’s G810 would rest near the top of the keyboardless WinMo food chain for a while, but if PocketNow’s review is any indication, that’s a tall order. Problem numero uno – is that the completely tactile-free directional pad and accompanying buttons make using the darned thing a challenge, no matter how cool the glowy blue lights may be. What’s more, the screen is QVGA, which is unacceptable for a high-end WinMo handset in 2008, and the tester was unable to get even a single full day of battery life out of it with typical use. On the bright side, the camera appears to take some of the better shots we’ve ever seen come out of a cameraphone, but that in not really enough to justify the $700-plus that retailers are commanding.
