HP iPAQ 614 unboxed

The HP iPAQ 614 has been subject to a number of delays over the past few weeks but thanks to our friends at Clove Technology we finally have one to review.

I haven’t had much time to use the 614 as yet but my initial thoughts are that this is a well designed and built device which looks attractive and seems to perform well. I have to say, however, that it is a lot bigger than I expected it to be, I thought it would similar to the HTC S730 but in terms of size it’s slightly larger than the TyTN II!

We’ll be working on the review over the next week or so but until then, here is our unbox video:

EDIT: As per comments below, I’m sorry I didn’t power the device up in this video but the 614 arrived only a few hours before I left for Paris and the battery was totally flat when I unboxed. I wanted to get the video live before I left rather than no video at all so I’ll record another video when I get back to show you the OS and GUI.

EDIT (again): The review is now LIVE.
