ASUS, the brand well known for its EEE PC, motherboards and graphics cards which have won accolades all around the world have now come up with another stunning winner - The ASUS P320. ASUS have earlier launched quite a few number of PDAs but none of them didn't really work out and most notable among them is the M930 which tries to mimic the Nokia Communicator series but fails badly at that. But with the P320, ASUS has made no mistakes whatsoever.The PDA is powered by a 2.6 inch screen with a resolution of 240x320 pixels, which is quite low a screen size for a business phone and that too with a touchscreen. It doesn't have a QWERTY keypad thus making typing on the touchscreen a bit difficult but it is fine once it is used a few times. It has got dimensions of 95x55x13 mm and has a weight of 105 g which makes it both light and sleek for a business PDA.Although there is no 3G in this device but lack of 3G wont really affect the Indian users of this product. This might be an issue in countries where 3G has arrived. It has GPRS, EDGE, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity thus making it a powerhouse in the connectivity department. The PDA sports a 2-megapixel camera with autofocus and video recording. It also has the standard USB 2.0 port. It has SMS, MMS, Email, Push Email and MSN connectivity services thus making it a powerful all round device. GPS is a very nifty add-on for this phone which makes it even more functional.
The phone is powered by Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional making it a heavyweight in terms of applications features and usability. Document editing is supported in the P320 and Excel, Word, PowerPoint, OneNote and other documents can be edited with ease. The performance is a bit on the slower side due to a slow processor but that doesn't deter it from testing it's limits.
The battery provides a standard talktime of up to 4 hours and a standby time of up to 400 hours. The battery is a Li-ion 1100 mAh which can provide enough juice to a feature rich phone as this one.
The price? Only Rs. 12,800 Indian Rupee and that is just the MRP. At such a price, this is simply a bargain. So why wait? You can't get such a full featured PDA at a price like this and with features like GPS and full office productivity suites, this baby is hard to miss. Excellent investment for anyone looking for the best value for money.
Final Verdict: Excellent phone. Deserves 4.5 stars out of 5. Great work by ASUS and let us hope they keep 'em coming.
