HP iPAQ Glisten Pro Reviews

PC Advisor‘s review Edit

Support for Microsoft's Mobile Office Suite and Exchange, paired with the excellent keyboard, makes the HP iPaq Glisten a solid business device. But the size of the touchscreen, along with the bare-bones Windows Mobile OS just isn't very user-friendly and detracts from the phone's overall experience. Also, if you want to use your phone for taking casual snapshots and playing videos, you'll likely be disappointed with the Glisten.

PC Magazine‘s review Edit

There are zero surprises here; the iPAQ Glisten is a mediocre business smartphone for hooking into Microsoft's enterprise ecosystem and nothing more.

CNET Reviews‘s review Edit

Offering the bare minimum, the HP iPaq Glisten fails to impress us. It can serve the role of a basic messaging smartphone, but there are better alternatives out there.

The HP iPAQ Glisten is a business-oriented Windows phone available from AT&T. It is HP's first with an AM-OLED touchscreen, and also sports a thumb-size keyboard, mobile broadband, Wi-Fi, and more.

Geek‘s review Edit

The phone’s performance is just OK. It has a tendency to bog down which is vey disappointing for a new device. The main issue was with internet browsing, the built-in applications generally fared better.

This Windows Mobile 6.5 phone is easy to type on and makes quick work of e-mail, but there are better smart phones for your money...

Phone Arena‘s review Edit

AT&T customers are now treated once again to a new smartphone from the dominant PC manufacturer in the form of the HP iPAQ Glisten.

PC World‘s review Edit

The name "iPaq" evokes distant memories of those monolithic PDAs from a decade ago. Fortunately, the HP iPaq Glisten ($180 with a two-year contract from AT&T; price as of 12/15/09) looks nothing like its ancestors. But its operating system, however, makes the Glisten feel like it is stuck in the past--it runs the basic Windows Mobile 6.5 user interface.
