It's still large at 4.76 inches tall by 2.52 inches wide by 0.51 inch thick, but it's thinner and an ounce lighter (at 5.8 ounces) than the Venue Pro, which goes a long way in making the Venue easier to hold and carry around.

The huge curved Gorilla Glass screen is a big plus.
Venue by Old-Radio-Guy
Still, the display's larger size makes it quite nice for viewing Web pages and multimedia, although the screen does tend to wash out in bright sunlight.

Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and GPS are all onboard, and the smartphone is compatible with T-Mobile's 3G network but not its HSPA+ 4G network.

I got my phone a few day's ago and I love it, not only is it fast and easy to use but it look's great.
Rated 100% by by Daniel-J-Brandt (Nov, 2012)
The picture is sharp, I use Wi-Fi on it all the time, which saves me from needing a data plan (because I'm often nearby a wired computer, or can find a Wi-Fi hot spot easily, making the use of data *FREE).
Rated 100% by by Anonymous--Shopper (Jan, 2013)
This phone truly has everything I want: great camera, wonderful sound/speakers, crystal clear screen, and super fast.

Screen

The screen is not as crisp and contrasty as the EVO.

Camera

Only negative comment is that the camera is not the best in the dark, in good light it takes great pics, but without good lighting, not great.
Dell Venue | Rated 100% by by Mia (Aug, 2012)
It does what it need to do and has an excellent camera in my opinion.
Dell Venue | Rated 100% by by kim (Sep, 2012)
The camera fared a little better with outdoor shots, as colors looked richer and brighter, but the edges looked blurry.

Type

The Android 2.2 device makes a good first impression with its attractive design, and its feature set looks good on paper, but does it deliver?
Dell Venue | Rated 77% by by c|net (Mar, 2011)
That said, Stage definitely won't appeal to everyone, and Android purists will undoubtedly be better off sticking with the Nexus S, which offers the stock Android experience.
Dell Venue | Rated 77% by by c|net (Mar, 2011)
this is my first android phone, but compared to the iphone, it is much less intuitive.
Dell Venue | Rated 80% by by NorCal-SoCal (Aug, 2012)

Apps

It does a particularly nice job of displaying your music library and photo and video gallery.
Dell Venue | Rated 77% by by c|net (Mar, 2011)
This phone has one, HUGE flaw that everyone who installs any apps on it soon finds out: The 512 meg phone memory fills up quickly due to a system logfile that keeps building in size until the phone becomes useless.
Dell Venue | Rated 40% by by Old-Radio-Guy
kinda slow but good for mainly school-work and gaming although some games aren't compitable in this phone especially the good softwares like the Gameloft games,this software includes the best of best games.

Operating system

no software updates- I think Dell is finished with the mobile phone biz for now.
Dell Venue | Rated 60% by by Michael-Halberstadt--Hubz (Dec, 2012)
Cons: I don't see any upgrades to the OS available.

buggy software requires resetting phone periodically to recover space.
