Verdict
With its compact size
Built-in mobile connection and Microsoft Office ready-loaded
The HTC Shift looks like a mobile worker’s dream machine on paper. However
Windows Vista makes the Shift’s performance poor
And its battery life ...
Tons
Tons and tons of features
More like a computer than a phone
Large
Easy to use keyboard
Push e-mail. Can shift between two operating systems. Multiple wireless options. Svelte design. Convertible tablet. QWERTY keyboard. Slim and light.
Includes Sprint WWAN
Strong performance for a UMPC
Multitude of input options
Display toggles between two resolutions
Sliding display reveals QWERTY keyboard
Useful dashboard and Origami Experience software.
Sharp and responsive touchscreen
Can access push e-mail without booting Windows
Excellent Origami 2.0 Web browser
Built-in EV-DO
Cool design idea. We like the 3G networking on Sprints EV-DO.
Powerful
Versatile
Beautiful screen
Builtin CDMA WWAN radio
Which lets you access Sprints data network when out of WiFi range. Microsoft Origami software offers a decent touchscreen experience.
Expansion
Including a bundled USB hub.
The editors didn't like
Performance underwhelming with Windows Vista
Short battery life
Pricey
Terrible camera
Runs Windows Vista
Screen resolution too small for some
Lacks voice capabilities. Slow UMPC parts. Touch screen is not as nice as a Wacom-enabled screen. Too expensive. Uncomfortable stylus. Wi-Fi throughput was less than spectacular. RAM is not upgradable.
Far too expensive
Short battery life when running Windows
Tiny keyboard makes typing awkward
Unremovable leather folio
Loud fan.
Cramped keyboard
Sluggish CPU
Weak Wi-Fi range
Design contradicts portability and convenience. Input methods are still difficult to use. Long time waking from sleep.
Very expensive
Truly horrendous keyboard makes typing anything but short burst messages out of the question. Performance slower than a tortoise full of rigor mortis. No ethernet jack. One USB port. Wrapped in tacky leather. Way overpriced.
Le constructeur HTC présente le Shift comme un véritable téléphone et ordinateur mobile. Compact (20,7x12,9x2,5 cm) et léger (800 grammes), il constitue la solution que HTC présente comme lOrigami Experience 2. Cette seconde génération dappareils off...
Tableau points positifs / points négatifs… Nous avons ici affaire à un appareil assez costaud intégrant la majorité des normes de communication actuelles. HTC a doté son mobile PC d’un écran large 5” appréciable dans toutes les situati...
Schermo touchscreen molto ampio; Tecnologia HSDPA; Processore potente,
Dimensioni e peso
L’HTC Shift è un dispositivo particolare, a metà strada tra un tablet pc e un cellulare. Dispone di tante funzioni, tra cui diverse telefoniche, oltre a contare su un processore molto potente e sul Windows Vista. Supporta le reti GSM e UMTS, pertanto ...
Das HTC Shift bietet ernstzunehmende Vista-Leistung bei kompakten Abmessungen und einem Gewicht, das sogar den Eee PC schwer aussehen läßt. Für das, was es bietet, ist es aber letztlich zu teuer. gutPreis-Leistung:ausreichendDie technische Leistun...
Abstract: Die Entwickler von HTC haben mit diesem kompakten Mobilrechner eine neuartige Mischung aus Smartphone, Laptop und Tablet-PC entwickelt, dessen Symbiose absolut wegweisend ist. Ausgestattet mit XXL-Touchscreen, QWERTZ-Tastatur, Windows Vista sowie der k...
Abstract: Den smala skärmen, eller korta beroende på orientering, kan vara en källa till irritation. Ofta är inte grafiska element i Vista anpassade till en så liten skärm, och dialogrutor med mera..
Utrolig liten og lett, Superenkelt å surfe på 3G, God touchpad, Godt tastatur for å være så lite, Kan være mobiltelefon uten å starte Vista, Fingeravtrykkleser, Integrert kamera, "Fullverdig" maskin med Windows Vista
Dyr, I tregeste laget med noen programmer kjørende, Litt dårlig batteritid, Den trykkfølsomme skjermen virker litt unøyaktig til tider, Går ikke an å ringe med den
en på maskinen er at den er god som gull. De få ankepunktene vi merker oss er at pekepinnen er litt for kort til å være behagelig, batteritiden er i korteste laget med litt over 2 timer levetid og vi synes at den er svært dyr til hva man får av hestekr...
Liten og hendig. Bra tastatur, alltid på nett med WiFi, Super-3G eller Edge. Windows Vista Business, innbygget fingeravtrykksensor og WEB-kamera. Hurtigfunksjon for e-post og avtaler (SnapVUE)
Abstract: Det kan godt være, at HTC Shift er et nicheprodukt til nørd-feinschmeckere eller skribenter, der rejser rigtig meget, men den vækker godt nok opsigt, uanset hvem man præsenterer den for. Nogen griner af den, men det er jo bare ærgerligt for dem, mens a...
