Accessorize Your Palm Pre Smartphone
The Palm Pre is a super-specialty multimedia smartphone that uses a multi-touch screen and incorporates a sliding keyboard. It offers one of the cleanest user interfaces, its combination of touch-screen and keyboards has proved very popular and many are already falling in love with its curvy black exterior. Not only does this device come with state-of-the-art hardware, the company has even come up with a completely original operating system for the device that has completely radicalized the way people look at phones and the way they use them. However, there is a lot more that you can do with your Palm Pre and many ways in which you can use it more efficiently or more effectively. Here is a list of must-have accessories that you should buy for your Palm Pre.
- While the Palm Pre is certainly a thing of beauty, one of the most frustrating parts is when one has to charge the device. The charging port door is hardly sturdy with too many fingerprints left on the battery door while the battery needs some major overhauling. The solution is to go in for a Touchstone. One needs no plugs and the stand has a nicely finished battery door so much so that charging the Palm Pre with the Touchstone is as easy as just leaving it on the table or nightstand.
- As we mentioned in the previous point, the Palm Pre battery leaves much to be desired. While it is certainly not meant for heavy-duty usage, even people with moderate use complain that the battery does not let them use it for an entire day. Since the beauty of the Palm Pre lies in its slim and small form, do not try to go in for a big, extended battery. Instead try a small battery like the Seidio 1350 mAh battery. This may still not cover you if you are going to be using the Palm Pre heavily but will save you when you are in the middle of work and your ordinary battery decides to run out of power.
- The other complaint that many people have against these sleek devices is, how easily the screens tend to get scratched. Once a screen is scratched, there is very little that you can do to repair it. It is therefore important that you buy an accessory that will protect your all-important screen. You could go for a case that protects the entire body of the Palm Pre but if that is too bulky just for in for a screen protector.
- The Palm Pre comes with a 3.5 mm headset jack and hence works with most standard hybrid headphones. However, a Bluetooth works the best with Pre because it is so easy to toggle it off and on. There are a variety of headsets in the market today that will work with the Palm Pre but you need to see which one works best for you. You may want to test them for sound quality as well as for noise cancellation depending on where you will be using them the most.
