Cingular Unleashes the 8525 and The Reviews Are Here (Verdict: It’s Pretty Darn Good)

Cingular today annunciate the release of the 8525 smartphone and the reviews are already here . Laptop Magazine generate its smutty hands on it and move over it a good rub down . The overall impression the mag walk away with is a good one . For starters , the 8525 is the first twist in the U.S. to feature HSDPA wireless broadband and the first 3 gee machine in the U.S. to have international 3 G capability . What this means is that gamey rollers and other the great unwashed move around around the human race frequently will find the 8525 particiularly useful . Other highlights let in built - in Wi - Fi , and BlackBerry - corresponding gyre cycle on the side and 2 - megapixel camera . More insight after el jumpo .

For all its plus , the 8525 does have some raspy spots , the review found . For starter , the number of place where you may in reality use the HSDPA broadband capabilities in the U.S. is somewhat lowly , right now at 120 markets . ( For comparison , Sprint and Verizon , which both use EV - DO , have 220 and 212 , severally . ) The cellular inclusion of Wi - Fi sort of nullifies that , but if HSDPA is your big selling period , it well damn well be supported in my sign of the zodiac in Nowhereville , U. S. and A. Pusk - to - lecture is n’t patronize yet , even though the button is there ; expect to see that supported sometime in 2007 .

So by the looks of it , the 8525 is a respectable get . It combines the scantily - even - deployed HSPDA measure with the intimate Windows Mobile environment quite well . It is a little on the expensive side , carrying a $ 400 cost tag , and that ’s with a two - year declaration . Could it top theDashas the premier Windows Mobile smartphone ? Giz describe , you decide .
