i-mate Ultimate 8502 Review
25 April 2008
| Avg user rating:
It’s not the prettiest smartphone we have ever seen, but the offset mini joystick on the front fascia does give it an air of individuality.
The QWERTY keyboard is tiny, but its keys are nicely raised from each other so they are reasonably easy to hit.
There is no GPS, but it does have HSDPA and Wi-Fi, and you can send the screen’s contents to a TV or projector via a provided cable.
There were no performance issues noticed during testing. It is easy to navigate using a combination of mini joystick, side-mounted scroll-wheel and touch-screen.
Battery Life
The battery life is quite strong for a Windows Mobile Professional device. You should get a couple of days between charges unless you thrash the Wi-Fi and 3G.
Pros: The ability to send the screen’s contents to a projector could come in handy.
Cons: There’s no GPS, and it is difficult to use the keyboard quickly.

Verdict: Not quite everything you could want from a smartphone, but not a bad effort.

imate 8502This review is misleading. This phone does have GPS. I have loaded tomtom navigator to mine and it works perfectly.
Has GPSThe review is wrong in saying it does not have GPS. The phone does have GPS and can be upgraded to Windows mobile 6.1.
