O2 Xphone Platform and Performance

Platform and Performance

Operating on Microsoft Smartphone 2003, the O2 Xphone offers nostalgia for those familiar with early Windows mobile interfaces. Under the hood, it is powered by a TI OMAP 710 chipset and a 133 MHz ARM925 CPU, making it seem quaint when juxtaposed with contemporary processors but perfectly adequate for running the simple applications of its time. The device comes equipped with 64MB of RAM and 32MB of internal storage, recalling an era when conservation of space and efficiency in app use were paramount. Additional storage comes via an MMC/SD card slot, a necessity given the limited internal storage.
