The Palm Pixi Plus is the latest smartphone available at AT&T.  Sleek, compact, and stylish, this is an excellent entry-level smartphone.  It comes with all the features one would hope to find in a smartphone, and the best part is that it can be yours for $49.99 simply by signing a two year service agreement.  You can also get a Palm Pixi Plus through Verizon for only $29.99.

What we like best about the Palm Pixi Plus is that it’s Wi-Fi compatible.  This is an upgrade from its predecessor, the Palm Pixi.  The Pixi Plus also has access to your carrier’s 3G network.  This means that no matter where you go you’ll almost always have internet access on your smartphone.  And, of course, the Pixi Plus doubles as a GPS navigator.  Better yet, Verizon users can tether up to five wireless devices to the Pixi Plus, thus turning it into a mobile Wi-Fi router and hotspot.  Of course, doing this costs an extra $40 per month and comes capped with 5 GB of data.  Not bad for such a cheap (and dependable) smartphone.

The Palm Pixi Plus allows for multitasking, something that hasn’t even been available on iPhones until recently.  For those who don’t know, multitasking means you can run several apps, programs, and websites at the same time.  Much like a computer or laptop, multitasking smartphones let you navigate quickly between various tasks.

Other features include a full QWERTY keyboard and a 2.6-inch multitouch screen.  Indeed, this is an excellent smartphone for avid texters who enjoy the feel of a physical keyboard.  The 2 megapixel camera leaves much to be desired, so don’t purchase this phone if you’re looking to take high-quality photos.  Besides that, we feel users will overall be very satisfied owning the Palm Pixi Plus.
