Dell Streak review

 

Neither here nor there in terms of size, the 5in Streak from Dell isn't as sharp or as punchy as its leading rivals

Big screen for the price ; decent enough pictures ; fair spec

Big verging on clunky ; vision and especially sound can be bettered

Falls between two stools, and not that gracefully: not a class leader

Dell Streak Review

 

The Apple iPhone is one of the worlds most popular portable devices, but the release of the iPad has The Apple iPhone is one of the worlds most popular portable devices, but the release of the iPad has opened up a new world of ‘big screen' interaction...

Dell have managed to deliver a well rounded product, but we want to see Android OS 2.2 released very shortly to fix some of the issues.

Dell Streak (AT&T)

 

Dell's smartphone/tablet has sleek hardware, but rocky software.

Slim and well-built. 5-inch screen is roomy. Fast processor.

Too big to hold in one hand easily. Buggy software. Old version of Android.

The Dell Streak could be an interesting Web-browsing and movie-watching device, but it needs a major software upgrade first.

Review: Dell Streak

 

Is it a phone? Is it a tablet? Is it a sharktopus? It's all of these things! Well maybe not the sharktopus part.

Sleek, slim design fits right into the pocket or a tiny purse. Simple UI makes for an easy-peasy experience

Shutter lag makes photography difficult, Android 1.6 OS is so last-year. No Flash or tethering

Dell Streak

 

The Dell Streak comes out on October 1, for $649 outright, or $0 upfront on a $59 per month plan from Optus. But should you take the plunge now, or wait for an updated Android?

Nevertheless, there’s a lot to like. Considering its screen size, battery life is good. Dell makes the most of Google Android, with a slick user interface married to thousands of apps, many of which are free. And the hardware is rather attractive too.

Do not buy dell streak phone. It is too big. It is a liability to carry around. It does not come with a convenient cover and if it falls from your hand the screen can crack. At Rs 25000 it is too costly. It hangs. Difficult to phone and disconnect...
