Sounds like the Dell Streak is really a smartphone. Is it?
The Streak is an interesting case. Dell calls it a tablet. It has a 5-inch screen, which is on the large side for a smartphone. But it also runs Android, a limited mobile OS, and can make phone calls — it comes with 3G service with O2 in the UK. According to Gartner’s definition that would be a smartphone. It’s also very similar to Dell’s smartphone, the Mini 3, which also runs Android and has a screen just 2 inches smaller. Lance Ulanoff at PC Mag pointed this out earlier. To make matters slightly more confusing, Archos has a very similar 5-inch tablet that also runs Android, though it’s definitely not a phone. Save for the 3G radio and the camera, the Archos 5 is essentially identical features-wise to the Streak.
