Palm Pixi Plus Review

[superdeath1997]

[Jovandanielle]

@superdeath1997 yes it has a youtube app

[kiddfresh251]

how do i change the ringtone?!

[davespark10]

Can someon please answere this!!1

do i need a data package for this phone? like do i have to pay extra for it?

[killerzwad80]

Say i was gnna but this on amazon can i just go to verizon and activate it i dont nEEd a plan do i? cuz i dont want internet or anything on it

[davespark10]

@killerzwad80 did you find out if you need a data package like smartphones?

[Hachiko070]

I loved this phone when I still had it, soo getting it again <3 The ONLY problem is that setting ringtones for messages is pretty much impossible. It'll set but it won't work, so you will miss a few texts here & there but it's a really good phone.

[SpadesHeart]

@Hachiko070 the thing costs like 40 dollars now... there really isn't anything comparable at the price point.

[nolimits393]

I miss this phone :'( but I have an evo shift now :) but I do prefer the size of this phone and I actually liked the keyboard

[MrNinjapenguin666sk8]

can u upload pics right to fb with this?

[Hachiko070]

@MrNinjapenguin666sk8 Kinda late reply but yes you can

[2804meli]

quick question, im gettin a phone but idk which one to get, the palm pixi plus or the pantech pursuit II? plz i need help which one is better!?

[saizkid1]

this phone sucks!! do not get it!!!

[theNuclearwar]

@saizkid1 why does it suck

[shitoky]

@theNuclearwar

1. you have to replace the case about every month and they can be expensive.

2. pictures suck

3. after a while, applications take a long time to load. and youtube vids take forever to load.

4. personal experience : if you set a daily alarm, it will stop after a few days before you have to "reset " it

only good thing about it is that it is small and have 7GB available for you to screw around with

you're better off with a pre

[JohnCenaRulz23]

do you have to pay to activate?

[ThePeppaLicious]

Hello can we still have the regular wifi connection without the mobile hotspot or WEbOS???

[arctickangaroos]

does this come with 8gb memory all ready built in or do i need to get my own memory card

[Fruitloopyz]

@arctickangaroos Yes its 8gb built in already

[arctickangaroos]

@Fruitloopyz thx and also can u use the app store with wifi. because im looking at getting it unlocked without a data plan.

[ThisisFakeasfake]

This is random but DO THE CAT DADDY!

[fluffels1]

get a better camera you tramp whore

[beautifulsadia68]

does the pixi plus have video recording????

[VideosMiscellaneous]

@beautifulsadia68 yes

[Saarahamr]

you are so annoying lol who agrees with me ?

[marebaresquared]

I got the Palm Pixie plus a on April 20thm and it is may 23rd, and today, i had my phone in my bag, and i droped my bag, and now the whole screen is cracked, and now, i am unable to use my touch screen. I loved the phone though..... The screen is VERY fragile!!!

[101momoxoxo]

I am thinking of getting this phone on a £20 a month contract from the internet. Does this phone have free internet if u hav a contract? It does say " get more out of ur phone with the internet plan " but does that mean that u just get it for free???? Plz answer ! Gettin a new phone in 3 weeks so wud like an answer quick plz x

[xHatedKiddo]

@101momoxoxo It's free, if you have WI-FI but it depends what phone company. You can activate the phone with any phone company but it just depends which one it is. It's a great phone. It has fast internet.

[marebaresquared]

are you still able to get apps on it?

[rjoaao]

Can you text via touch screen and not on the keyboard?

[shaazy]

@rjoaao Yes, but you need to apply a Patch for that. A patch basically allows a virtual keyboard to be placed wherever a text needs to be keyed in.

[xHatedKiddo]

@rjoaao you can only text on keyboard. It doesn't have via touch screen. It only has dialer.

[th3rionn]

Can i use headphones for this phone ? for listening to music?

I saw unboxing and there wasnt headphoones in the box lol :D

[ilikecandy96]

@th3rionn yes you can



[myfriendfats69]

on the pixi in the top left hand corner there are 2 circles what the hell are they for?

[sanzaroo]

@myfriendfats69 It's a light sensor. So the screen goes off when you're on the phone so it saves battery. a lot of newer phones have it.

[GenoKatz4]

i have the pixi and i fucking hate it. its so slow. it takes up to 15 seconds to load my fucking text messages. its a piece of garbage. no wonder palm went under. this phone is on the border line of "smart." im getting the verizon iphone and cant wait to get rid of this damn thing.

[OurMusicSings]

do you have to pay extra every month like the smartphones?

[Ntrendguy]

@OurMusicSings No.

[7700patie]

sweet

[mrscpprincess]

what the Fck

[TheCreepyCamel]

I have this phone but is there any way to turn off delivery reports, I'm sick of having 'New network message' popping up after every text I send and telling me how much credit I have left. It's nothing big, but it's annoying and repetetive having to press 3 things after sending a text.

[anabanana0301]

I hate how you keep smacking your lips. GAHHH!!!

[BangBangLGutta]

@anabanana0301 LMMFAO

[skatestag]

@anabanana0301 LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Lil20Bam09Bam]

What Is The APN for At&T?

[nono6nono]

would you recommend this over the Blackberry Curve 3G?

[BlackNomad1]

@nono6nono Yes. This is better than any Blackberry, no data plans needed, does everything a blackberry can do but better and with a more modern OS.

[nono6nono]

@BlackNomad1 Alright, good. Thank you

[eminem147792]

@nono6nono yes. i have this phone and i love it.

[nono6nono]

would you recommend this over the Blackberry Curve 3G?

[technomobile3000]

The Phone Costs £100 In The UK On o2

[eminem147792]

@technomobile3000 it cost .99 cents in the USA with 2 year contract.

[philanomitch]

@churchsxciting701 a "cont" is a contract that a lot of cell phone providers use to lock you into a certain price for usually about 1 or 2 years.

[churchsxciting701]

[MaxHugoVideos]

[snapshot8739]

There are two..TWO palm pixi up on ebay for the starting bid of $80.00. It comes with one house charger and one car charger and all the manuals. They are fully functional and only been used for 2 weeks. They have alittle sign of use but barely there. The member name that are selling them is .... 5557fredda. Its a great deal. Their carrier is verizon

[ladyOluvsU]

can I get on the internet without wifi

[Barney200000007]

He sounds like Ross from Friends haha

[lilsofi94]

@Barney200000007 he does a bit lol

[mapiy]

Is the VZNavigator Free or do i need some sort of data deal?

[SlipknotChick427]

Is this phone good? Are there any common problems?

Just curious, I don't know if I should get this or a Blackberry. :)

[Hutch15gay12345]

@SlipknotChick427 I have the same dilema...

[giana4598]

@SlipknotChick427 I think the Blackberry is more worth it, but the Pixi is pretty good..

[SlipknotChick427]

@giana4598 Thank you :)

[legendaryNAVYSEAL]

could you actually talk on this phone? wheres the talk specker thing?

[likeewoahhh95]

Your voice sounds too rehearsed.

[CODYMANARON]

0:57 is that pixi or plus??

[mikenike900]

hey should i get this or backflip

[legendaryNAVYSEAL]

@mikenike900 i say these phones are dead even

[Marjettapoz]

this guy sounds sooooooo borinngggg

[airjordaniv5]

the pre plus is smaller.....

[CODYMANARON]

@airjordaniv5 yes it is but it holds more storage,much memory.and is better at everything then the pixi.therefore many people might want to consider getting the palm pre plus. :)

[SARAHMORALES2892]

can i use any headphone for this phone? or do i have to buy a certain one??

[mike101096]

@SARAHMORALES2892 any headphones will work... ive used my i-pod headphones for this so.. i guess any will do :]

[12desi3rox456]

the guy talking has a really annoying voice

[liveelaughhloveeJMM]

who the hell arguess over phoness ?

[MARiSA51595]

@liveelaughhloveeJMM

meeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[diamondgirl211801]

@liveelaughhloveeJMM He tellin yo stupid ass which one betta now sit the fuck down nd.// watch it!

[SwagMaster9000]

@liveelaughhloveeJMM people who can afford to choose and not have to settle for a flip phone that you get for free when you sign a contract...

[geebones]

looks great shame is not a blackberry

[STATiKoSHOKo]

yea! is the data pacage mandatory?

[greenscreeningthings]

@STATiKoSHOKo yes :(

But there is a new $15 limited data plan:)

[danamarie9793]

@STATiKoSHOKo yes with all smart phones for verizon at least you need to have a data package

[SLITTHROAT13]

I tried the phone in the store and its so cool smooth transition between applications only slight lag in web.

[StarsAndStripes111]

PLEASE HELP ME! i just got a palm pixi plus, and i can't activate it. for some reason. cuz i used my grandpas upgrade, and i tried customer service and *228, it just won't work! i went to the verizon store, and it sed i needed to get a date package, but i don't know where to get one! PLEASE HELP!!

[InSaNiTyReiGnZ]

Can u use it with a prepaid sim and still make and receive calls and messages?

[FirstTryProductions1]

the touch screen looks laggy. i hate laggy phones, i have the htc droid from verizon and its absolutely horrible. they even took it out of verizons website. its the most laggy phone out in my opinion.

[Fedora94]

im pretty sure i want a new phone for my bday. the palm pixi plus is one of my main choices because of its sleek design. i do like the palm pre plus, but i think the pixi is bettr becuz of the keyboard and screen on one bar phone style thing lol

[hotpeacechick]

@Fedora94 Don't get the Pixi Plus just cuz the keyboard!!! The pixi doesn't have 3D games, it is WAY slower processor, it has a suckier camera, and less storage.

[neothespian]

@hotpeacechick

Actually, it boots FASTER than the Pre in side by side tests (search for comparison vids on that), and the processor is still quicker than most other non-iPhone devices on AT&T and it's not a cluttered mass like Android. And... 3D games?!? Really? Some of us actually WORK for a living and really don't give two shits about gaming on a phone. The Pixi is WAY more real-world friendly than the Blackberry, and funny how no one complains about the 3GS iPhone's 2mp camera..

[hotpeacechick]

@neothespian You don't know a damn thing about smartphones, do you? Get your facts straight.BTW, not everyone is a pain in the ass work-a-holic, some people like gaming. The Pre is obviously much better. So just cuz u have the Pixi or whatever doesn't mean you have to defend it. Anyone who knows anything about phones could tell you the Pixi Plus is a low end smartphone. And I never mentioned the iPhone or a Blackberry. And the Pixi is lacking in many features. DO NOT REPLY TO THIS DUMBASS!

[neothespian]

@hotpeacechick

Angry little troll aren't we? It's the Same OS as the Pre, just less RAM and one step down in camera. Not very peaceful for a "hotpeacechick"

[JesusLovesPiano94]

@hotpeacechick Just because it's not quite as good as some other phones doesn't mean it's a bad phone. And good grief, it's free, what do you expect to get out of it? A three course meal? Somebody might be looking to spend less money for an okay phone. And some people just have different preferences in phones, back off a little.

[TwistedandTwined]

love this phone just by looking at it. had the palm centro for 2 years im so ready for something new haha.

[ch0colat3gIirL]

what a wonderful {clear} and simple review!

5 starss! *****

[TFC118]

does any one know how much it is on pay as you go in the uk???

[TheMichaelBender]

@TFC118 -that phone is not offered on pay as you go last time i check.. well i do live the us so.. idk

[gogonnaro]

i have it it is pretty good

[rainbowmoon16]

ok. get your facts right. if you ask any verizon wireles store it says that the hot spot mobile comes with the phone and does not charge extra to use, and it allows 4, not 5 devices to use it at one time.

[onetrupairing]

@rainbowmoon16 it being free is a new thing

[TheRetroBand]

i like the prè better

[KeithRantin]

does it have video

[JUSTFML93]

cant wait till is on ATT... best phone out right now IMO

[colehelgeson]

is it a girl phone only? or both male and female?

[zinthios777]

dose it take videos???

[superc2k]

@zinthios777 not until Feb 2011 then it should have video and  flash

[MSBproductions98]

i love this fone, and i dont even have it! Haha. but the price is a pretty good deal if you have verizon! :)

[AnnieDS23XX]

If u dont have wifi , can u still text , message & do all that stuff

?

[SalemLax12]

@AnnieDS23XX

yea you can still text without the wifi

[AnnieDS23XX]

@SalemLax12 oh okay thanxx <3

[kornnation1]

you sound like tom green

[Ooska]

Dude. The data plan is mandatory, but they just made the mobile hotspot free! It used to be 40$ a month!

[ozy18708]

@Ooska its a free app, but the data still cost per month. (the app has always been free)

[Ooska]

@ozy18708 Nope. Free app and free data. HUGE selling point. I'm gonna get one.

[Britannic1915]

I want this because its smaller and had a non-slider. But I like the Pre because of the bigger touch screen... :( I need help!

[LittleHann123]

crappy phone :l

im getting the palm pre plus<33333 :D im soooo excited

[BigChiefLittleGuy]

I'm deciding in getting either a palm pixi or droid eris...which one should i get?? plz help

[F3rtil3]

@BigChiefLittleGuy

I'd say the pixi because it has a keyboard and you can multi task easily. Not only that the touch screen is as good if not better then the eris.

[SkateForNow]

now its 49.99 on line with 2 year contract. good deal?

[ski4beens]

is that $100 including the monthly internet plan???

[rider9195]

@ski4beens. the data plan is 29.99 plus 49.99 for the phone

[beefyskittles]

is the data plan mandatory?

[AllStarDeal79]

@beefyskittles Yes, all data plans are mandatory for smartphones.

[noah1475]

@beefyskittles Yuuup, unless you wish to pay full retail price, AT 300 dollars/

[zeldafreak66]

@beefyskittles No



[FatherOfShadows]

@beefyskittles Yes; all smartphones will require some sort of data plan, usually of at least $20 a month

[morganinprogress]

@beefyskittles yes.

[southmedia1]

@beefyskittles Yes either $15 for 200 MB and $25 for 2 GB

[SkimmpySB]

@beefyskittles no but its highly recommended.

[greenscreeningthings]

@beefyskittles yes :(

[greenscreeningthings]

@beefyskittles unfortunately, yes :( All smartphones do, no way around it. 

[Volcanic9]

@beefyskittles yes

[eliasthesportsfan]

so does sprint still carry palm? and if so do they carry the pixi plus cause i have the regular one

[ski4beens]

is it expensive

[jonjon2521]

no, its only $100

[iPodTouchlover15]

This dudes voice is so annoying. I like the pixi plus tho. Trying to decide whether to get it the pre plus or the droid once my two years are up.

[x136rider294]

Droid!

[AGxB0Yx66]

I personally like this keyboard better then the pre. even though its more compact, It's a lot easier and more accurate. I'm sure many people would agree with me.

[Grodusk]
