HP Pre 3 Now Being Sold In Europe For £299, North American Release Date Coming Soon
HP has begun selling the Pre 3 in Europe without making a lot of fuss in the media. A really weird decision that is as everybody loves WebOS because it’s fun, cool, and open, unlike Android or iOS. Although WebOS offers the best UI on the market, Palm couldn’t sell too many devices so HP bought the company a while back and it even announced great things to come about this operating system.
Well, the HP Pre 3 has been officially revealed more than six months ago, and some long-time fans were left waiting in disappointment. We don’t understand why HP didn’t announce a press conference or something, and release a press statement, but maybe the company isn’t focusing on the European market as WebOS was never a hit in London, Paris, Berlin, or Rome.
Love it or hate it, the HP Pre 3 is available for sale at the Palm Eurostore for a small price of £299. The WebOS-based smartphone is unlocked so this is a really decent price for such a gadget. HP has some retailer partners, too, like Box, and Clove so if you think that they’ll ship your Pre 3 faster, then you should pick them instead of Palm’s store. HP promises that the smartphone will ship in one or two business days.
The HP Pre 3 features a single-core 1.4GHz Snapdragon processor, 3.6-inch touchscreen at 800 x 480 resolution, 8GB built-in memory, 512MB RAM, sliding full QWERTY keyboard, 5-megapixel camera on the back with 720p HD video capture, VGA front-facing camera, WiFi 802.11b/g/n, GPS, Bluetooth, dual microphone with noise cancellation technology, and a 1,230mAh battery among others.
HP Pre 3 is powered by WebOS 2.2, unlike the HP TouchPad which ships with WebOS 3.0. It is unknown whether the Pre 3 will be upgradeable to version 3.0 at some point, but we believe that the next generation WebOS smartphone will run on the cutting-edge OS.
There are no official release dates for North America though HP confirmed that more details about the Pre 3 launch in the US will become available in the very near future and that we should wait patiently.
If you have £299 at your disposal then go ahead, hit the source link below, and purchase the HP Pre 3 at the Palm Eurostore. Let us know if you bought the device and if you cannot wait for it to arrive at your door.
