Introducing Palm® Pre™, a phone so in sync with your life it feels like it's thinking ahead for you. Pre pulls your different online calendars into one view, bringing you the information you want without having to search for it. Pre links your contacts from different sources, giving you one place to find what you need. And Pre delivers incoming messages and notifications in an intuitively subtle way, letting you react or respond however you want.1 People, events, information that matters. With Palm Pre, it'll come to you.


Layered calendars and linked contacts

Pre uses the Palm® Synergy™ feature to bring your Microsoft Outlook, Google, and Facebook® calendars together for one logical view of your day. And if you have the same contacts in different places, Pre can link them together, making it easier to find the information you need.2 See gallery


Activity cards

Keep multiple applications open and move easily between them—email, maps, photos, websites, whatever. Pre thinks of your applications as activity cards, and lets you flip through them, move them around, or throw them away off screen.3 See gallery


Intuitive notifications

Things like text messages and calendar appointments appear as notifications at the bottom of the screen. You'll know what's going on without being completely interrupted or losing your train of thought.1 See gallery


Combined messaging

Thanks to Palm Synergy, your conversations with the same person are grouped together in one chat-style view. Which means even if it started in IM, for example, you can reply with text. You can also see who's online right from Contacts, and start a new conversation with just one touch.1 See gallery


Universal search

Simply start typing to begin searching your contacts and applications. Pre begins with contacts and apps on the phone, and then offers to search Google, Google Maps, Wikipedia, or Twitter. With a fast browser at 3G speeds, you'll find what you're looking for in no time.4 See gallery


Email, Wi-Fi, and GPS

Check Microsoft Exchange email or personal email accounts like Gmail, Hotmail, and Yahoo!. Take advantage of Wi-Fi hotspots. And look up directions or nearby points of interest using GPS. It's everything you need when you're on the go.5 See gallery


Photos, Music, and Videos

Take great pictures with the built-in camera and flash. Watch a video on the vibrant color touchscreen. Buy songs from the Amazon MP3 store and listen using the built-in music player. Plus, use the Palm media sync feature to transfer your DRM-free iTunes music, videos, and photos to your Pre.6 See gallery


Breakthrough design

Slide out the keyboard for faster and easier texting. Close it up and rotate Pre for music, websites, photos, and videos in full widescreen glory. You get the best of both worlds in one beautifully designed phone.1 See gallery


Applications

Get applications by browsing the catalog on your Pre, and then download them over the air directly to your phone. Apps designed for the Palm webOS™ platform are integrated with other apps on the phone. Buy movie tickets, for example, and you can add the times right to your calendar.1 Learn more


Palm Services

Use over-the-air Palm Services to automatically back up your important data, restore it, or even remotely erase your data if your phone is lost or stolen. You also receive your software updates over the air without connecting to your computer.7 Learn more
