Dell's raiding the Pocket PC pantry again with the Axim X5

byyusakugo Dec 3, 2002
100 Helpfuls 101 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Tons of features, great price.
Cons Size of the unit, Pocket PC OS.
Recommended it? Yes

Well, Dell is expanding its markets... it was just a matter of time before Dell dove into the handheld market. No surprise that it sided with the Pocket PC OS since Dell has had a strong relationship with Microsoft and Intel. Yes, many of the parts inside the Dell Axim are made by Intel.

In the Fall of 2002, Dell entered the handheld computer industry with the introduction of two models: the Axim X5 Basic and the Axim X5 Advanced.

Pros Value, 1yr Advance Replacement warranty, CF and SD slots
Cons Barely any software goodies, STYLUS#!!%*, SD is not SDIO, shortage of 3rd party...
Recommended it? Yes

Dell is at it again. Their mode of operation is to take industry standard components, and slap them together and offer it for magnitudes less than their competitors. For most consumers, like myself, it's a great value proposition and makes 80% of the population happy. The only downside to Dell's... Read full review »

First of all let me note that epinions has their graphic reversed for the basic and advanced axim models. The basic axim doesn't come with a cradle unless it's ordered separately.

Basic vs. Advanced:
The axim basic has a slower cpu, less memory main memory, and less built-in flash... Read full review »
