Dell Mini 5 review

Dell Android MID runs, um, Android 2.0 operating system. It has a 5-inch bright WVGA display (800×480). It has all the latest connectivity options including WiFi, Bluetooth and 3G radios.

It has back and home buttons on the right side of the display.

It has a 5MP camera with dual-LED flash at its back to click pictures in the dark.

There is also a micro-SD slot via which you can expand the storage. It is ARM based and has 1300mAh battery, which may sound enough considering it is not x86-based. But, since it is also a phone and has a huge 4.8-inch display, 1300mAh may be too short for lasting through the whole day.
