    Asus MyPal A716 PDA Review - Conclusion


    (Page 6 of 6 )

    Asus MyPal 716

    Pros

    • Built in WiFi/Built in Bluetooth
    • Overall excellent Spb Benchmark scores, especially in the graphics area
    • Dual slot, both SD and CF
    • Longer than average battery life
    • Excellent video playback
    • Good WiFi signal strength

    Cons

    • Hefty size
    • Either use WiFi or Bluetooth not both
    • Extremely Poor outdoor screen visibility
    • Low score for internal File System Benchmark
    • Price may be a bit steep for some

    Taking into consideration the few shortcomings of this PDA, I would still consider it a good choice for someone looking for a media powerhouse w/ WiFi and Bluetooth not to mention the dual slots and respectable battery life. Now if your just looking for something with the built in WiFi and Bluetooth there are probably cheaper alternatives that would better meet your needs.

    That's it for our look at the Asus MyPal A716 for today. We would definitely like to thank Asus, especially Diana, for providing us with this review sample. If you'd like more info on the product or it's bundle you can check the product link or Asus's homepage. Any questions can be emailed to me or you can just stop in the Dev Hardware Forums.
