  • Is this a phone that you pay 4 like an iphone or a regular tablet

    

  • i dont think a 5in screen is too big those that do are happy to put a full tablet in a backpack when they could bring a propper laptop, if the screen is 5-6 inch and overal length is a few mm more itll still fit in your pocket, if your happy to use a backpack and want more usability use a friggin laptop, theres way too many 5-15 inch devices that blurr the lines for no real reason, theyre making products for people that are indecisive about what they want.

  • Thumps up to the pople how hate apple cause they cant afford there products

  • @johnjacob720 They can use Cydia :D

  • So Dell Mini 5 = Dell streak 5, right ?

  • bulshit its a huge ass smart phone

  • can you play games on it ?

  • Okay what the fuck phone cant go to your email or go to your facebook or go to your movies or go to your apps. but this and the experia play are the best phones

  • @NocredRS yes.. so what? its just a video and quicktime player. and no big deal. there are more better software to play on andriod then apple/ quictime player

  • its lke the size of a smart phone

  • "Full color" It's fucking 2011, obviously there's color. dumbass.

  • This is what I have been looking for! I want one.

  • Wat if he dropped it!

  • is that a mic or a dildo

  • I have iPhone, and I got this Tablet yesterday, to be honest, I already love this tablet much more than iPhone.

  • "And in full color!"

    "with peripherals, it can almost be an alarm clock"

    "With an added layer of Dell software for a true Dell experience"

    Shit I just cannot wait. Where can I pay too much for this miracle of "True Dell Experience"??

  • It's an even bigger htc desire hd.

  • Thumbs up if you hate apple :)

    <3 this mobile i just bought one

  • @hitlessmack Where did you buy it? and how much did it cost?

  • @N1NJO3 i am on plan 99$ unlimited calls and unlimted text with optus , this mobile comes free with my plan :)

  • was gonna put thumbs up if you're broke, but it looks like @hitlessmack already did that two months ago

  • @DanyBarragan haha acutally i am not broke i can afford this plan and eveyrthing and i love this plan all i get is 99$ bill at the end of a month.. i calls alot mate.. i used to spend 150$ a months now i am saving 50$ i know its alot :P satill

  • @DanyBarragan well i am not broke.. its been 6 months :) i love this mobile. Best mobil out there in shop Iphone Suckssss. Its more for girls new apps. like womens got new lipstick or some cosmetic stuff. 

  • 900 dollars lmao their fucking nuts

  • Why does everybody copy apple?

  • @brentsrx7

    actually, it isn't that way.

    Just as one reason:

    Sony originally came out with chiclet style keyboard in about the late 1980's-2000's......EVER SINCE THEN MACS ONLY COME WITH CHICLET KEYBOARDS....talk about copying.....

    apple fanboys....

  • OK....Now how is this difference from Dell Streak ?

  • @smartdon007 dell streak=dell mini 5

  • The DELL guy is quite the ugly nut.

  • @mufloos

    I'm 100% straight but I think the guy is quite handsome. lol

  • big A** mic

  • mmm i dont know i see that thing very limited and there is already the iphone and ipodtouch who haves much more apps and looks more useful than that little thing...

  • Full color WITH peripherals that turn it into almost an alarm clock?!? I feel like I'm in an episode of Star Trek. I'm in for 25. Already started sewing in bigger pockets into my pants.

  • Android sucks...

  • Im inlove with this new gadget. I have 3gs 32gb and im thinking to buy 1 day an OS4. But i change my mind ill prefer this dell mini5. How i wish it will not too expensive as iphone. Lol!

  • wow...look like i will buy this laptop

  • Seriously, this thing is SICK. I work alot and currently have a Blackberry Bold 9000 (many considered the best) and I often have a telephone conversation where I have to pull of info from an email. Seems this thing would be definetly worth considering, and it blows RIM away

  • I wonder how smooth it is when put through the rigors of multi-tasking with only 512MB RAM?

  • This phone will rape the shit out of the iphone 4 if it isn't bound to a carrier and if it's priced sub $300. Under these marketing conditions I almost guarantee a sell out. The buzz so far is crazy even with no advertisements.

  • That's fucking retard it's a big fucking phone

  • Yeah, a full web browsing experience just in time for AT&T and Verizon to put internal 3G usage caps based on mobile browser/email data usage. In other words, even though it has 3G you'll still be desperately looking for hotspots or paying really high phone bills.

    This sounded like the perfect phone, but the carriers new highly capped plan (5 days of 2-3 hrs netflix streaming was about 3GB usage) means these feature phones are now useless to me.

  • The Ipad is bigger, more apps, more battery, FASTER!!

  • @giantiger12 actually no, its only got 256mb of ram.

  • @iamtusharwhoareyou No it has 512 mbRam

  • check out MY dell phone, the dell mini 3i. hasnt been released. wicked cool. youtube.com/watch?v=jxQpqmmx43­o

  • check out MY dell phone, the dell mini 3i. hasnt been released. wicked cool.

  • android 2.2 please

  • Geez, a lot of people ripping on the guy. He was informative and was answering all the questions quickly and efficiently. He also had a camera and microphone in his face which is bound to make people seem a little off. People often mistake professionalism as rudeness.

  • Love it got it today; bit shocked at first by size but when i started watching videos and browsing the web i realized just how great it is amnd now i think the iphone is shit

  • 2 gay

  • The guy looks weird and shifty, creepy

  • does the camera, gps, screen size, and OS make this device worth getting over an ipod touch?

  • Informative but Rude guy

  • snapdragon 1ghz , 512m ram , wvga ...

    it's good , but not amazing ...

    besides , 500$ is not a good prize

  • Does it have multitouch?

  • @Fal1ingUp Yes it does.

  • Yes you can Skype will come soon to htc evo 4 via 4g and wifi and Dell mini only via wifi by to everybody.

  • the speaker looks arrogant

  • are these devide work with magic jack ??? not skype

  • Comment removed

  • Frankly i love my iphonew but its dated now. The ipad hasnt really offered anything new except its size of screen and thats no big advantage. Apple runs the risk of falling behind and only those hardcore fans wanting to use it. The Strek looks to be the replacement for my iphone. I use it more for data with a phone secondary. So this is ideal for me.

  • @RustiSwordz i find that apple rellys on fans to get its products going, as you might remember the first iPhone it did not have 3G which all phones had at the time including non smart phones, and it still doesnt use flash! But steve Jobs does not like it as we all know.

  • @maticoff I tried the IPad but i found it very limiting. The Dell with Android looks to be a 100% more flexible and intuative. I dont like tying my media into ITunes, i want to just be able to upload into my device mp3s of my choice with little or no restriction. Tying the pad/iphone is very limiting.

  • Dell knows exactly what I am looking for. A device to look up stuff online or from my pdfs or textfiles/notes that can fit into a whitecoat pocket, while still being as big as possible. This beats dragging 2-3 books with u.

  • is it possible to run this device in portrait mode?

  • Critics hate Apple and pick at them because of flash and anything else they can pick on..... Okay, if you don't like it, don't buy it. However they must criticize on their fat asses because the technology is something they can't have nor afford. I am not the biggest apple fan, will never buy a computer, but you can't diss them for what they have done revolutionizing the phone

  • I'm not sure why, but I like it. The concept of a giant phone with HDMI out is strangely appealing to me. I hope one of the options is an extended life battery, it would be nice to have a phone that I can give someone a concussion with if they try to steal it.

  • This is perfect. Hopefully it's affordable.

  • hopefully under 450 euros and without any limitations of andriod 2.2+ annnd with more then 8 hours runtime with 3G and display on

  • wait ! what I need from these devises ? all these features we have it on a mobiles phone and best than it like NOKIA N8 and HTC Hero . we need a small portable windows 7 which I can use it to paste my pictures from my NOKIA N8 in future .

    I mean we have right now mobile phones with good features , now I need a real tablet PC which I can use instead of laptop , netbook and desktop .

    DELL im sorry but you don't know what we are looking for ..

  • @ 2:40 "And in full color..."

  • It's TOO DAMN BIG TO BE A PHONE. You can't even put it in your pocket. Will not be getting this if it comes to AT&T. IT WILL COST MORE THAN THE IPHONE itself.

  • so its like a backflip. Without a keyboard. And twice the size. Wtf?

  • FAIL.... too big for a phone not big enough for a tablet... why add unnecessary bulk to your pocket... it's like carrying a PDA and a mobile all over again... (those were the days!) what;s wrong with an HTC Touch Pro2 / iPHONE / NEXUS 1? All will do the same as this product (if not more)... it's neither one thing or another.

  • It does not seem polished yet (the android mods). Although not a traditional phone, it should rotate properly in every app, including phone, web, etc. It needs work, unless it is already being done.

  • how much will it be

  • Dell is so sweet, I have a two Dell studio XPS's with i7. I also have an old dimension and a Inpiron 1545. I love them all. I cant wait to get the Dell Aero smartphone, and this, the Dell streak. Check Endgadget(I THINK THATS HOW ITS SPELLED) for all their other phones. Thunder, Lightning, Storm, and others.

  • FULL COLOR!!!!

  • did he say full color! lol

  • our society is so damn lame and spoiled nowadays i swear all i hear is "its to big to be a phone" "i cant hold it to my ear" MAN UP!!! not even 10 years ago phones were big as hell you mean to tell me your arms are so straggly that you cant hold a 5 inch phone?

  • WOW. That's is AMAZING

    To bad apple already fucking made it.

    It's called a damn iphone

  • @marcorocks131 Since you seem to be all over apples nuts.. HTC wizard came out in 2005 which was a touch screen touch phone that can play videos, take pictures, surf the internet, play games, OMG that sounds so familiar!!! and the kicker is that it came out 2 years prior to the 1st IPhone?!? and the kicker is that the HTC wizard was not the first smart phone.

  • smart phones are up to 4" now....lol...where does this fall? EPIC FAIL!

  • EPIC FAIL!!! Too close to a smart phone. DELL needs to fire their marketing team....didn't they learn from netbooks that any screen up to a 9 is not a friendly web browsing experience.....This trash is gonna be in the DELL failure bin like alot of their other products.

  • "So your not opening and shutting down applications" - is he describing the iPhone?

  • @jovianksc, there's actually some pix on the net of an editor from engadget with the mini 5 in his pant pocket. It's filled up his pocket but not as bad as u think cuz it's as slim as the iPhone or nexus.

  • lool

  • make sure your pants have big enough pocket to fit that brick

  • "Almost double the size of your typical three inch screen"

    WOW! I almost forgot that 5 was almost double 3!

  • @pmopmo4824 well if you're looking at screen area mate, it may very well be more than double. measured diagonally right? ^_^

  • @pmopmo4824 A 6x4 inch surface is much more than double the size of a 3x2 inch surface. Place two 3 inch screens next to each other and you'll have a comparable amount of screen area to this device.

  • HOw much for that... must b higher den 700$ if some 1 knows tha price... let me kno :) Reply.. > :D

  • wow this Dell guy sounds like really arrogant. haha certainly not a salesman I hope, cause if he is, Dell is done for. LoL

  • This is basically a mini netbook... far better than the ipad, coz you can open multiple applications at the same time it's a handheld, that can be used to make calls.

  • OMG. it's an alarm clock too. Amazing, wait... i think the first phone i ever got had one too and that was 5 years ago.

  • WOAH that mic is HUGEEEEEEE lol

  • wow, an alarm clock function

    :)

  • @destiny6666 Now we wont be at the mercy of the sun to wake us up.

  • I like the bigger screen.. and plus. I bet it's fast.

  • fail!!!

  • PSP

  • its almost double the size of your 3 inch screen, lol. this is gonna blow

  • @xxcrossfadexx17 Hellz no

  • one of the biggest advantages of the iphone is the app store, not that im an apple freak, but its a basic simple fact, no other device has 140,000 application you can download to

  • nice

  • Bye bye iPhone

  • @Entropy56 glichy iphone finger slide motion, bye bye iphone my ass

  • Picking this up on launch can't wait!

  • thats not a tablet its a crappy smartphone without calling. ipad is much better.

  • This kinda looks like a big iphone... I dunno, it kinda sucks, it's too big to be as portable as a smart phone and too small to be considered a comfortable tablet device.

  • I don't really see the point in these devices my phone has a large enough screen and if I'd like bigger for video 'while eating my breakfast' as the guy says I'll just use my laptop.

    The Android platform is an excellant and well thought out platform, and Dell's just piggy backing on Androids innovation; by all means make Android devices but don't say it's innovative when it's just an ordinary piece of hardware.

    Plus Dell will cram it full of useless software. Just buy an Android smart phone.

  • This is silly... Just get a freakkkking smart phone. We don't need two devices that do the same thing. Geeeez.

  • it's awesome!

  • I really like how it has HDMI out, if it has Bluetooth or a usb port than I'm getting it. It would come in handy has a T.V. P.C.. Connect it to your T.V. by HDMI and sit back using your Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. Nice video. :)

  • this has no real purpose to big to be a phone and to small for anything that a phone cant do

  • this will totaly own ipod touch unless the 4g is released with multi task hd capability a 5.0 mega pixel camera and just awsomemess

    i would totaly wait in line for this

  • oh shit you can access your facebook? GTFO!

  • @stockholm7x hahahahhahahah

  • As for me... it will be an HP Slate. This is a nice idea but it seems to me it is too large for a phone and too small to be a real tablet. Back to the garage Michael!

  • don;t worry folks ipad pro will come next year !!!!

  • pwnd!!

    THE NOTION INK TEGRA SMARTPADgoogle it.youtube doesnt let you post links anymore.or something.its coming out this year

    what a piece of shit this ipad looks to be..it doesnt even come stocked with simultaneous-app support? lol ."waaa..why cant i experience LIKE 85% of the stuff/multimedia on the web that actually matters?!?!".because apparently apple cant figure out how to include flash into a simple OS.dipshits

    have fun with your $900 64GB 3G +data plan$ + apps$ = rapePAD. LOSERS

  • This thing looks awesome. Can't wait to learn some more about it. Probably gonna get this to double as a mp3 player since the size of it looks pretty pocketable

  • But can you play Bejeweled and Poker Blitz?

  • ahh i knew it was an Android, its like a super awesome G1! DO WANT!!!!

  • ummm not bad but...is it really a tablet?

    i mean it's like as small as a phone O.o

  • This totally PWNS the iPad by a LONG shot. Dell Mini-5 FTW

  • nexus one plus dell mini 5 ftw. btw the iphone is an epic ail

  • If it fits in my pocket do i see it as a phone, not a slate.. But its not bad

  • wait so with the hdmi out, will you be able to play youtube or hulu on a regular television?

  • when it come out in usa?

  • android 4 the win :)

  • first i thought about to buy it, but it has no simcard slot for using umts u always need a 3g phone.

    i would prefer the mini 5 when it comes out,

  • I like it, and I want to buy it when come out..

  • Oh right, cause the iPad has a camera... Well, it can multitask... Well, it had flash...

    What does it have?

  • this and the ipad both have their advantages and disadvantages but i like this better bcuz of the camera and the ability to multi task and the flash player plus even tho its a smaller tablet that way its more portable than an iPad JW this has music playback capabilities rite? and it has a 3.5 hd phone jack?

  • @dantheman81491 the Ipad is just to damn big! Its great but the size is crazy!

  • please tell dell to turn this device into a full tablet pc. i think it will do much better with a touch screen qwerty keyboard and the same apps needed for productivity. please! please!

  • It is too big for a phone. I didnt think so but I found out today. Today, I saw a 5 inch Android tablet device and I thought "that thing is way to big to talk on"

  • lol this will smoke ipad , in all seriousness this looks fantastic and look like it has a lot of features that ipad does not have. And while i am a huge mac/apple fan I think this has alot more potential...and it doesn't look like a big itouch ;D

  • Dell makes the BEST and most HQ merchandise. I think all us pc users can agree to that!

  • 300-400 would be perfect. might go 500.

  • could they get a big enough mic for that guy

  • device is good nothing out of this world but the mic is really scary

  • have flash player?

  • It's not 1000 dollars think about what your saying nobody in the right mind would spend a grand on this even though it's badass that's just a rumor I hear this should be about 300-400 dollars which isn't bad for what your getting basically a smaller palet with a phone can't wait to cop one

  • $1000? no thanks

  • I'm really looking forward to this .. !

  • scribd (dot) com/nb812

  • i think Dell guy is scared of the mic.

  • OMG-that's a hybrid. It is not a tablet and neither a smartphone.....

  • I like the fact that this is also a phone and it DOES have a SIM card slot! :D

  • i think you need a bigger mic

  • @tdreamgmail hahahaha ... well said.

  • I like the way he avoids commenting. "We haven't decided on that yet." "No ideas on pricing yet." instead of the lame "No comments"

    Anyway this device is more promising than any other that i have seen. But yea, anything is better than the iPad.

  • @adtc every mobile with android and wifi is better then the Ipad.

  • @HackingDutchman That's what I said...

  • Comment removed

  • @HackingDutchman

    ipad is ultra-faggotry.

  • @HackingDutchman To bad that's lie,the ipad has a better running system than a mac,are you telling a shitty droid is better than a full scale mac?

  • @marcorocks131 Do you truly understand what you are saying? So you are telling me the Software on the I Pad can run Adobe Photoshop and other 3D graphic applications better than MAC OS X??? are you a noob to Computer Platforms and Operating Systems?

  • @HackingDutchman that's just easy man xD....my abacus has more functions than the iPad :D

  • @HackingDutchman There even doesn't need to be Android on it ;)

  • yes!!! this actually looks like a decent piece of kit, but there seems to be one major flaw: /watch?v=nAHOJc4kmQY

  • YOU SON OF A *****!!!

  • This looking very promising, I am an Apple Fanboy and I was not very interested in the iPad when it was shown. I wish my iPhone had flash capability and the ability to use multitasking. This dell mini 5 seems to have it all.

    It is a little big for a phone like he said but you could get away with it.

    I'm going to enjoy playing with a demo device.

  • waow this is awesome nice work Dell

    when can we see this on the market?

  • smartphones are gettin bigger, 3.5 inch screen is almost default now. I say the bigger the better, tablet + phone is what iwant!!! and if uwant my money, give me what iwant :p 3g, wifi, gps, 1ghz, 5inch capacitive, front facing camera aswell as main camera, great operating system, growing app store and looks great too! oh and i love McChicken! thought i'd just mention it :p

  • it does way more then the ipad.. i rather get this then the ipad. at least i can make phone calls.. looks like my nokia n900 but bigger.

  • Thats not a microphone thats a dildo!

  • Blackberry storm! DUH might as well keep the bloody logo on the back!!! fukin dicks!

  • @aplestormy

    Yea u can definitely fit a 9.7 inch screen into your pocket.

  • iPad isn't supposed to fit in your pocket.. that's what the iPhone/iPod touch is for

  • @Schmaoer Be sarcastic then, lol. Anyway I understand your point, if I wanted something like this I would just get a ipod touch....

  • do want!
