Asus P565
Tuesday, July 28th, 2009The increase of the speed of processors for mobile devices like PDA phone is not as fast as the processor speed to your PC or notebook. And when talking about performance, the processor became one of the components that affect the performance of a PDA. Well, if you’ve been inpatient with slow performing of your PDA, the latest PDA phone from Asus called the P565 worthy ogled. By using speed Marvell 800MHz processor, the P565 is a PDA phone the best processor right now. For comparison, other PDAs are usually stuck in the number 500-600MHz.
Combined with the memory available, it was powered P565 when running heavy applications. But we think would be more interesting if Asus put a greater memory than the standard specification in the form of Flash ROM 256MB and 128MB SDRAM. The operating system is still using Windows Mobile 6.1. Given the newer version already out, it would be better if Asus provides afdol upgrade to version 6.5.
P565 own body size is almost equal to P552W body; P565 only 2mm thicker than the P552W. However, this thin difference was sizable impact on overall performance, because the posture of P565 was much bigger.
Like the P552w, P565 is wearing Gester Glide UI with it. Gester is a virtual on-screen navigation to control the direction and operation of the application of the screen with just one simple motion. Gester somewhat important; remember all the interfaces that Asus put on the device touch screen control requires adequate. Asus also include Multi-Home and Anytime Launcher. As far as our observation, there was no difference between that used in the P552W with P565. Just to remind, Multi-Home is the home screen can be selected according to mood; accessed from the icon-like triangle in the top right corner of the screen. Meanwhile, Anytime Launcher activated with similar picture punched Windows; located between Call and navigation buttons.
Very rare processor made for consideration when buying a PDA phone. But if a lot working with applications “heavy”, there’s no harm in getting used to weigh the hardware devices specification. For now, the Asus P565 is virtually the best option we can get. Not only was the performance, appearance okay.
