Pros:
Fastest tethered modem we've seen. Best-in-class address book integration. GPS for Sprint Navigator service. |
 |
Cons:
Call quality could be better. We'd like more IM clients. |
|
| Conclusion: |
|
| The Sprint Mogul's update couldn't come at a better time, as the device is running in a crowded field of HTC QWERTY-slider contenders, including the recent Verizon Wireless XV6800 and the AT&T Tilt. The updated Mogul definitely represents a step forward in this market for Sprint. Besides the Sprint Music store and GPS navigation, we were very impressed by the tethered modem speeds, which bested even our fastest PC Card modem, let alone the other phone's in its class. The phone is still limited where Windows Mobile stumbles, in its media player and Web browsing, and it suffers the same graphics issues as other HTC sliders. |
