Today we’ll look at two reviews for Mio A501, one of them from the UK, and the other from Asia. Both reviews gave a similar grade to Mio A501, 3 out 5 stars and 6.7 out of 10 - which average to 6.35 out of 10.


Bottom line for both reviews are somewhat similar except when it comes to GPS: UK review complains about awkard GPS operation while the Asia review is happy with tons of GPS features and GPS tracking. However both agree on the ‘interesting’ placement of the joystick button which is on the upper left side and the lack of high-speed wireless such as Wi-Fi and 3G.


Our final gripe is with the lack of wireless support. Bluetooth 2.0 and Edge are available, but despite being quad-band, there’s no 3G or Wifi. Other features include a two-megapixel auto-focus camera on the back, a surprisingly loud external speaker and a 2.5mm headphone jack for audio out


For all its GPS features, the Achilles heel of this PDA-phone is surely its lack of wireless connectivity options. It is a quadband phone without 3G, so the fastest cellular data transfer speeds it can achieve is through EDGE. The A501 also doesn’t come with Wi-Fi, a standard feature in many Windows Mobile handhelds.


On the plus side however you’ll like the fact that Mio A501 uses full size SD cards and has a 2MP digital camera with flash and auto focus, a powerful 1050mAh lithium-polymer battery that lasts upto 3 days with light GPS usage, and quadband phone which will work anywhere in the world.
