Veritest report: Palm and Pocket PC devices comparison

Posted on 21-May-2003 09:27 | Filed under: News


Veritest was commissioned to create a comparison testing between the two dominant platforms in the handheld market.

Key findings in this report:

  • The Palm Tungsten C lasted 1 hour and 35 minutes longer than the HP iPAQ 5450 in 802.11b wireless battery life tests.
  • The Palm Tungsten C was more than 2 times as fast as the HP iPAQ 5450 in wireless download speed tests
  • Palm devices equaled or outperformed the HP devices in these tests
  • The Palm Tungsten C outperformed all other devices in battery life tests
  • The Palm Tungsten T lasted 5 times longer than the HP iPAQ 5450 in time to data loss test

    Please note this report was requested by Palm, although Veritest is an independent company. Microsoft also uses Veritest services.
