Axim X51v The High End Value Deal With A Few Caveats

Date of Review:  Jan 30, 2006
The Bottom Line: A lot of little improvements to the X50v makes this a better value with room to grow. However, X50v users don't have much reason to upgrade.
Review: Upgrading upgrading... with Dell offering substantial price discounts and coupons, it was hard not to upgrade my X50v for the X51v for the improved memory structure and improved battery life in the newest generation. Also, my brother was willing to...

The Dell Axim X51v Pocket PC: It Was Great, When it Worked That Is!

Date of Review:  May 16, 2006
The Bottom Line: This is a fine product so long as it runs well for you. Myself and my colleagues have had some difficulties which are still unresolved.
Review: For the past several years I thought the Pocket PC was a trinket I did not need in this new world of electronic communication and access. I have used some devices of this kind in the past (3-5 years ago) and mainly enjoyed them at the particular...

Best Features, But Beware Problems

Date of Review:  Feb 11, 2006
The Bottom Line: When it works, it is a powerhouse packed with features. However, without some tweaking of software, critical functions will not consistently work. Dell Customer support is outsourced and very poor.

Best Bang for the Buck

Date of Review:  Jun 14, 2006
The Bottom Line: The Axim X51v is the best in the market and its specs include the best of todays technologies. The affordable prices, makes it the best bang for the buck
Review: Dell AXIM X51v:

I used the Palm Tungsten E for a long time and never had a problem with it. My company gave me Dell Axim X51. There was a major difference in performance (cant compare the two esp. since the Tungsten is 2-3 years older &...

Dell Axim 51V Too Expensive and Limited

Date of Review:  Jul 22, 2007
The Bottom Line: I would not recommend the Dell Axim 51V for anyone wanting a portable PC for internet wi-fi use, e-mail, games or for taking it on the road.
Review: "The Bottom Line"
The Dell Axim 51V is a very expensive handheld PC with more limitations than a cheap insurance policy. Unless you have a new computer with all of the recent updates installed and you never plan to use it outside of your own...

Great deal for a great portable computer

Date of Review:  Apr 10, 2007
The Bottom Line: This PDA would be good for anyone. It is easy-to-use yet can easily be configured with your email, download a few games, map/gps tools...
Review: I was unsure if I should buy a Dell or go with a different brand. So far I am glad I went with the Dell.

If you have ever tried using the internet on a phone this will be a big upgrade for you. The screen doesn't look all that big but...

Nice PDA; OS has a few issues

Date of Review:  Jan 6, 2007
The Bottom Line: Recommend this product for anyone looking for a nice looking, decent performing handheld PC--if you can deal with Windows Mobile 5 issues.
Review: When my Compaq Ipaq (several years old) started to have connectivity problems, I went shopping for a new handheld. I did a lot of research, and settled on the Dell Axim. I purchased the Dell Axim X51v, specs: Intel 624MHz, 256MB
ROM 64MB SDRAM,...

Sent defective product back...not ready for sale.

Date of Review:  Nov 8, 2006
Review: I sent my defective X51v back to Dell for refund. There's too many problems for a $400 pocket pc:
* Programs simply disappear from Today with no way of retrieval.
* Included "Switcher" loses track of programs running, crashes. WM5 loses...

Feature rich, but at what cost?

Date of Review:  Jul 28, 2007
The Bottom Line: Powerful, but it's unnecessary extra power is it's own undoing.
Review: The Dell Axim X51v is Dells fastest, best and last PDA, running the latest (at the time, now superceeded) Windows Mobile 55, running the fastest Intel XScale Pocket CPU, running at 624 MHz, this is a powerhouse. It has 128 MB of onboard ROM for...
