REVIEWS

 
VNUNET Reviews Handhelds Compaq iPAQ H3130 Pocket PC

Review Summary, Editors' Rating: 4 out of 5

"If you want a Microsoft-powered palm-sized device, this one is certainly worth looking at. The screen is excellent and, though not cheap, it's less than the colour version. ." (Read full review)

PCPRO Reviews Handhelds Compaq iPAQ H3660 Pocket PC

Review Summary

"Buyers of the 3600 or 3800 range get the same processor, which delivers an impressive and snappy performance. The screen on the 3600 offers 12-bit colour with self-adjusting contrast." (Read full review)

PCPRO Reviews Handhelds Compaq iPAQ H3760 Pocket PC

Review Summary, Editors' Rating: 4 out of 6

"First up is the H3760, which we can summarise all too briefly. It's actually an identical piece of hardware to the iPAQ H3660 with the only difference being the updated operating system." (Read full review)

PCPRO Reviews Handhelds Compaq iPAQ H3850 Pocket PC

Review Summary, Editors' Rating: 5 out of 6

"Compaq's iPAQ is a longtime favourite here at Computer Buyer, thanks to a combination of good looks on the outside and raw power on the inside...It feels good in the hand, and the screen is still a real winner. Larger than the average PDA display, it's bright without bleaching out colours, and the image is beautifully crisp...Business is Compaq's core concern, so Sony-style fripperies aren't the order of the day. The standard Pocket PC applications - Pocket Word, Excel, Contacts and Calendar - handle organisation and office work, while the entertainment side of things is left to Media Player 8. This gives you MP3, WMA and Video playback, and with its 206MHz StrongARM processor, the iPAQ has enough power at its disposal to cope with all of them." (Read full review)

ZDNet UK Reviews Handhelds Compaq iPAQ H3870 Pocket PC

Review Summary, Editors' Rating: 7 out of 10

"When comparing a H3850 to the H3870, it's easy to quantify what the extra £60 buys you -- Bluetooth support. Is that alone worth the extra money? Well, if you love the iPAQ design and want to access wireless data via a Bluetooth phone or share files with other handhelds, then the H3870 is an attractive choice." (Read full review)

ZDNet UK Reviews Handhelds Compaq iPAQ H3950 Pocket PC

Review Summary,

"The screen on the 3900-series iPAQs is a big step forward. It's transflective, meaning that it's backlit for use indoors and in dimly lit situations but also reflects ambient light, making it viewable outdoors in sunlight. The screen on the device that we looked at was brighter, had better contrast, and displayed more vivid colours than those of previous iPAQs." (Read full review)

PDA Buyer's Guide Reviews Handhelds Compaq iPAQ H3970 Pocket PC

Review Summary,

"Best in class screen, truly excellent battery life for a Pocket PC. SD card slot is fast, Bluetooth works well and reliably, generous software bundle. FileStore allows you to store data in a user-accessible Flash ROM area. For the 3970 model, 48 megs of Flash ROM space means you have 22 megs of safe storage for important files, contacts and etc, and likely enough room to store future operating system upgrades. Can use existing Compaq expansion sleeves. Con: Price! No performance gain over the StrongARM processor running at 206MHz! What's up with that? No user replaceable battery, when will Compaq (HP) give us a built-in CompactFlash slot?." (Read full review)
