great phone, i agree with tony that anyone who talk bad about this phone dont really know how to use it.. ive been use it for 6 month.. only 2 times freeze. just close program after use it with running program in memory manager,cause if u just tab 'X' it doesnt really closed. if u not do this, memory will full and it will go slow and going freeze. this problem happened to my friend who used atom but he have sell it before he knows what the main problem is

I have a question about this XDA mini s, i have had the phone for about three days and have purchased a 1gb mini sd card for storage. The only thing is, i have put video's on my sd card, and when i use media player for playback, it runs slow with the visual being spikey and stuttery. does anyone have a solution to this problem?

thanks in advance,

DumWho?

Good phone . Easy to use , and more stable than other XDAII phones like: XDAIIs, or Mini . I bought it 8 months ago , and have used it till now . It's very powerful and strong , although it's a litle big . The people who said it bad are the ones who don't know how to use this phone.

This PDA is a let down. The problems I get associated with it are the following:
- constant freezing
- daily need to reboot the machine
- inconsitent dial up
- very slow performance
- inadequate as a phone as people can't really hear you
- too big to lug around (blackberry is smaller and lighter).

Conclusion:
Don't buy it. It is not practical and doesn't really work. What really surprises me is that I would have thought the suppliers would have tested these before letting them loose on the market. I'm just glad its my company's money that has been wasted and not mine.
This phone is a gross fraud with regard to its marketing claims.

The XDA has some good features like GPRS and GSM so you can connect to the internet wherever you are to check your emails and football scores on Saturday or the Word and Exel Documents. But it's not for normal people, it's for extremely patient ones as it makes you smash it on the wall more then 5 times per day. Completely waste of your money. It freezes every time you open it and start an application i.e photos,documents,emails, messages etc. Imagine you need to make a quick phone call and you have to reset it 2 times before you actually make the call or receive a call. The battery problem is a disaster. I had bought lots of software from the HANDANGO shop but not used them all in the same time and had to reinstall them about 10 times over and over again because of the battery that goes dead and you loose all the programs, saved documents and the settings. This is ridiculous. How have they made this PC Phone like this, you forget to charge your phone and you loose all the data and the software installed in the phone? Can't believe it. I have decided not to install any more stuff on it and just try to sell it on eBay for peanuts. Unless you buy a keybord programe you can't even type a message or email with that silly little stylus in the tiny characters in the phone's keyboard. Takes you 10 minutes to type one email or message. Look for something else on the market before you buy this or any XDA phones as they're all the same.

Wonderful stuff if you are using as an office assistant. The 3.5" screen provides better ease while reading emails, surfing the net, seeing the pictures and videos. Wondeful sound on the headphones as well as the loudspeakers. Supports SD card. Very user friendly. The only issue is with the large size which one needs to compromize with for the large size of the screen.

My wife and I upgraded a year ago both getting XDAIIi phones. And yes as a pocket PC they seem to do everything you could wish, but as a mobile phone they are a real pain. They often freeze-up on call answering and you have to reboottime after time. And the video starts up so easily on its own. Going from one function to another can cause them to freeze up also. The phone keypad is slow to sluggish. Battery life is limited with us having to charge up every day, and that was from new.
Not all bad news though, if you can be patient and not get frustrated with the crashing, that massive screen makes pictures, video, internet and games real fun, and as long as you remember to backup all data to an sd card.
But were now going back over to conventional phones. These are too complex if you really want a phone.

This phone is absolutely amazing. Besides the battery life, I cannot figure out another reason why not to get this phone. The only question I have is if GPS can be attached to this phone and if so any suggestions? Please mail me at saumil83@hotmail.com

Great phone. got it from KL @ RM1850. One complaint is that the stylus is really loose though, a shake of the phone and the stylus slide right out. There were suggestions from other forums togive the stylus a slight bend. I did this, and it's still loose. Didn't wanna bend it more though.

yes it does suppourt 1g sd card it even suppourted my mates 4g sd card. i have the xda2i which is very very good (bar the battery life) however the atom is a minaturised version with less specs, if you want a pda deff go for the xda2i but if you prefer a smaller phone rather than a pda go for the atom, hope this helps

Hi Xda IIi users,

I try to review one by one for other opinion on this phone. In general, I found that it seem not good for this model. But it's my interest and wish to buy it. What I am worried is its buttery, signle and other function are not functioning properly as someone descripted in the their opion. Can any one who have experience using this help to decide whether to buy or not. We are a rich man, we should not try if someone not recommended. Thanks for your help, Regards,
