Contrary to their usual policy, Palm has lifted the review embargo for the new Verizon “Plus” variants of the Pre and Pixi a few days ahead of schedule. Presumably, Palm is looking to generate some free early buzz online prior to the devices’ official arrival on Verizon this coming Monday the 25th.
After reading through a number of reviews, the general consensus around the web is essentially that Pre and Pixi in their “Plus” incarnations are solid devices and Palm’s finest smartphones yet. However, by offering only minor improvements ranging from evolutionary (Pre) to incremental (Pixi), there aren’t enough reasons to warrant existing Sprint customers breaking their contracts to jump ship to Verizon. Catch the review list after the break.
