Release Date:

Release Date Q2 2009

Released For:

Sprint Sprint

Released for Sprint, the Palm Pre features a 3.1-inch 24-bit color touch screen display. It integrates a proximity sensor that disables the screen when users put the phone up to their ear. To prolong battery life, a light sensor dims the display if the ambient light is dark. An accelerometer automatically orients webpages and photos for landscape or portrait view. Hidden from view, a full QWERTY keyboard slides out for easy and quick text messaging. An integrated 3.0-megapixel camera with LED flash and extended depth of field captures images and video. Other features include EV-DO Rev. A for high-speed Internet, 802.11 b/g Wi-Fi, GPS, Stereo Bluetooth and 8GB of flash storage. The Pre also has a micro-USB plug, 3.5mm headphone jack and a new wireless charger. The Pre runs on Palm's new webOS. Multiple applications can be opened and run simultaneously, so users can flip from one program to another. The new platform introduces Palm Synergy, a feature that brings information from the many places to the Pre in one integrated view. It also groups conversations with the same person in a chat-style view, even if it started in IM and replied with text messaging.



Features


  • Slide out the QWERTY keyboard for faster and easier texting or close it up and rotate the handset for music, websites, photos, and videos in full widescreen view
  • Palm Synergy feature brings Outlook, Google, and Facebook calendars and contacts together for one logical view, and groups conversations with the same person in one chat-style view
  • Flip through multiple applications and open and move easily between them
  • Text messages and calendar appointments appear as notifications at the bottom of the screen so users will know what’s going on without being interrupted
  • Fast browser brings full websites the way they were meant to be seen
  • Take advantage of Wi-Fi hotspots and look up directions or nearby points of interest using GPS
