Palm Pixi Plus Review

The Palm Pixi Plus measures a pocket-friendly 2.17 inches across, 4.37 inches long and 0.43 inch thick and weighs just 3.26 ounces. The slim, all-black phone has a soft coating and gel-like keys arranged in a keypad located below the reflective, 2.63-inch screen on the phone's face. The keys are raised to a point where it's harder to make typing mistakes, but there isn't much room between the keys, so those with chubby fingers may have some issues. There aren't any keys just for numbers (they share room with letter keys), which makes dialing a number a bit cumbersome.
The back of the phone has dual speakers and the lens of a 2.0-megapixel camera and an LED flash. The top of the phone has a power button a 3.5mm headset jack and the right side of the phone has volume keys, a ringer switch and charger/micro-USB cable outlet.
The Pixi Plus has a sleek, incognito design. It's more lightweight and slimmer than many HTC and Blackberry designs that also combine a touch screen and a keypad, but the screen is still large enough to use to watch videos or surf the Web without squinting at the screen. The keypad, though, does feel the squish a bit and the keys are pretty narrow and close together.
Out of the box, the Palm Pixi Plus comes with a standard lithium-ion battery, an AC phone charger, a micro-USB cable and a getting started guide.
