Pros Price, Features, Style, Memory and Battery Life Improvements
Cons Some Bugs, Incompatibility with some programs at Windows Mobile 2005
Recommended it? Yes

Upgrading upgrading... with Dell offering substantial price discounts and coupons, it was hard not to upgrade my X50v for the X51v for the improved memory structure and improved battery life in the newest generation. Also, my brother was willing to take my older model off my hands. I got the X51v... Read full review »

The Dell Axim X51v Pocket PC: It Was Great, When it Worked That Is!

byelmoebeesn May 16, 2006
41 Helpfuls 42 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros loads of features, really works as a mini PC
Cons turns off on occasion, customer support lacks
Recommended it? Yes

For the past several years I thought the Pocket PC was a trinket I did not need in this new world of electronic communication and access. I have used some devices of this kind in the past (3-5 years ago) and mainly enjoyed them at the particular time of use, but recently have moved away from this... Read full review »

Best Features, But Beware Problems

bywkronenb Feb 11, 2006

Pros Features, speed/memory, screen, small size, good battery life
Cons Fails to recognize CF/SD cards and sometimes discharges all power unless operating system...
Recommended it? No

Summary:

When it works, it is a powerhouse packed with features. However, without some tweaking of software, critical functions will not consistently work. Dell Customer support is outsourced and very poor.

Dell AXIM X51v:

I used the Palm Tungsten E for a long time and never had a problem with it. My company gave me Dell Axim X51. There was a major difference in performance (cant compare the two esp. since the Tungsten is 2-3 years older & different OSs). When my wife got a X51v, it was a... Read full review »

Dell Axim 51V Too Expensive and Limited

bypagercat Jul 22, 2007
15 Helpfuls 16 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great graphics, Word and Excel nice to have
Cons No synching, no internet, weak battery, no updating
Recommended it? No

"The Bottom Line"
The Dell Axim 51V is a very expensive handheld PC with more limitations than a cheap insurance policy. Unless you have a new computer with all of the recent updates installed and you never plan to use it outside of your own home then avoid this device.

Great deal for a great portable computer

byvisio Apr 10, 2007
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Price, Seems to be well made, wireless functionality, ease-of-use
Cons The stylus is wooden, I couldn't get Java to work and some downloads didn't work
Recommended it? Yes

I was unsure if I should buy a Dell or go with a different brand. So far I am glad I went with the Dell.

If you have ever tried using the internet on a phone this will be a big upgrade for you. The screen doesn't look all that big but compared to a phone it is much bigger.
