The Centro is small and light, comes with a touch screen for easy browsing and navigation, and fits comfortably in the hand. It has a full QWERTY keyboard too, although the buttons are tiny and cramped, forcing us to press buttons using our fingertips.
Out of the box, the unit comes with a CD with a Palm Desktop software installer, rechargeable battery, AC charger with adapters, headset, and proprietary USB sync cable.
A switch that turns the unit's ringer on/off is found on top of the unit, while users will find a lanyard loop, proprietary power connector and sync connector, and headset jack (2.5mm jack) can be found on the bottom. A customisable side button and volume keys can be found on the left side of the Centro, while an IR port and microSD card slot can be found on the right spine.
The 320x320 colour touchscreen, five-way navigation keys, Phone button, Calendar button, Applications button, Messaging button, Send button, and End/Power button can all be found up front, giving users easy access to various applications with a single touch. Finally, the stylus, 1.3-megapixel camera sensor, and speaker are found at the back of the Centro.
