I'm using it not even a year.. GPS suck and out of 50 times I tried, maybe twice I can get the reception. I report this to Asus

Thank you for supporting and using ASUS products.
Your mail request ID is WTM20100127345311595

But from the review, I can say that this PDA did not meet up to his reputation pre-review..sound not loud enough, GPS problem, scroll down issue, battery not lasting and etc..

And Late servis (more than one month) to repair my device is not acceptable!!

Now, I bought back my SE600i for primary phone while the Asus P565 is not more than a joke to carry it and showing how stupid this product to all my colleague..

I purchased P565 a week back and I am wondering if ASUS is giving an option of upgrading the set to Windows Mobile 6.5?
If yes who I need to contact?

its a killer phone to go for a price of 14k( in bangalore), the cons of the phone are poor battery back up even with moderate use,pictures taken from the mobile lacks clarity. speaker quality should have been better. otherwise its a good windows phone.

Asus Windows Mobile phones are absolutely useless due to following reason which i have experience:

1. It cuts phone in between.
2. Network problem where other mobile with same sim works fine .
3.Within 1yr mobile will have n number of problems and finally after 1 yr their warranty is over and you will be asked to change motherboard costing 7 -8k .
4. spend some more and buy i phone or blackberry they are very much reliable and sturdy.
5.Asus resale value is Rs o/-
6.Asus mobile are very slow and cursor movement is absolutely bakwas . you scroll down the contacts list and it will move up , even their service provider are unable to solve this problem.

Overall ASUS window mobile are absolutely worthless for money they charge and you will waste your money .

love the phone. of course after downloading spb keyboard (free trial) and skype it is pretty much perfect. super fast. looks great. the leather is real classy. the case is even better. beautiful screen. oh and did i mention super fast. also handles multi programs incredibly. the screen is real sensitive so using your finger works perfectly. cons. doesn't support 850 frequency. and not alot of hardware buttons.

There are no pros, here are the cons:
1) Though it's claimed to have the best CPU in market, i couldn't believe it after seeing it's performance even in turbo mode.
2) When using asus go 2008 map software, though the device is plugged in to 12V DC and power setting was set to "do not turn off the device", it turns off and you have to tap on the screen every time to turn it back on. And it takes extra time for the device to find out GPS location. I had to develop an add-in software that keeps resetting idle timer of windows continously.
3) I couldn't find a way to let the device use 802.11 if available, and if no wireless network is present, use GPRS/EDGE then. You should choose either. If you choose GPRS, it uses GPRS even if you're in a wireless network range; and if you choose Wireless Network Card, if does not try to use GPRS if no network is found.
4) We made a comparison on cold starting time of GPS receiver with a friend's Blackberry Storm 9530. He connected and found location in 4 secs, Asus couldn't locate where it is.
5) User interface is silly.
6) It overheats when charging (in a place where it's not under direct sunlight) and shuts itself without a warning.

This is good phone but cannot over charge, the line will done. Need to reinstall ROM. Qwerty is small. Other than this overall this phone is 8/10.

I really like this phone. It's like carrying a whole desktop pc, without the bulk of course. Battery drains fast especially when using wifi. Just bought a spare battery (sbp-18) so i can use it for an extra few hours.

Been using this for almost a month. Battery drains very fast. Have to charge at least 2x a day.
