T-Mobile Wing Review
The Wing from T-Mobile (or code-name Excalibur) is an amazing new pocket PC from HTC using Windows Mobile 6 and integrating an MP3 player, a 2.0 Megapixel camera, and a touch screen cell phone - all in under 6 oz.
Intended Audience:
Younger and hipper than the BlackBerry but too grown up for the Sidekick.Form:
The T-Mobile Wing has a texturized, almost rubbery feel that makes it easy to hold on to. The Wing has a large, crisp display and it's a touch screen which is a nice feature. Similar to the Sidekick, the Wing slides to reveal the QWERTY keyboard.Function:
The Wng's keyboard has that snappy feel we've all come to expect from T-Mobile. The keys are close together, but as they are also textured it didn't affect typing ability. A particularly nice touch on the Wing is the indicator light on the caps lock - just like a regular keyboard. The inclusion of Windows Mobile 6 means you're not just limited to viewing Microsoft Word and Excel files - you can create and edit them as well. You can also view PowerPoint and PDF files.Phone:
The speaker phone in particular works well, a nice touch while driving. And of course, the Wing supports T-Mobile's myFaves which allows unlimited calls to the 5 numbers you call the most regardless of carrier.Web:
WiFi plus the ability to surf on T-Mobile's EDGE network makes it easy to stay productive wherever you are. The navigation button plus the touch screen makes one-handed navigation easy.Email:
Windows Mobile 6 provides some neat new features including a streamlined email setup for multiple email accounts and types and the ability to search your inbox by sender.Messaging:
The Wing comes with Instant Messenger support for Yahoo, AOL and MSN built-in.Fun:
The 2.0 Megapixel camera on the T-Mobile Wing is a nice upgrade over a lot of multifunction phones and means the pictures and video are nice and crisp. The Wing is also an MP3 player supporting multiple music formats and Bluetooth wireless stereo headphones.Is it For You?
If you need more functionality to work on documents using Window Mobile 6 than the Sidekick offers but you want to stay hip and take advantage of some cool new features, then the T-Mobile Wing is for you.Shop our selection of T-mobile phones and plans. All T-Mobile phones are available with a one-year or two-year contract.
