6. What is the main display resolution.
7. It has FM/MP3?
8. How is the build quality.
Now don't direct me to their website :-) As I want to know about these things from a user who has used the cell for sometime. |
Ok will try to give you my experience rather than specs/data, which you would anyway get from sites.
1. Calendar is vv easy to use .. you can see the whole month at one go, set events reminders for single or recurring events. It allows setting multiple alarms.
The phonebook is damn good. Multiple numbers, emailids can be stored against a name. You can toggle these numbers with the navigation keys in the list view of the names. All entries have speed dial and voice dial option. Of course you can attach images to each number.
All in all, it caters to all basic organising/scheduling needs as long as you are not looking for PDA level features.
2. It has a camera. OK resolution. It also has a audio/video recording facility .. I think it records till 30 secs at a stretch. But then you can choose not to use it ! The main navigation links on the screen (bottom left and bottom right) can be set to your preference. I have set it to Camera and VideoCam .. you can set it to any of the menu items in the phone.
3. Bluetooth available. The headset comes as a package with some phones. I don't think it comes with the 16995 version. (I did not take the bluetooth option hence cant comment on the quality of the headset). Also am yet to test the bluetooth with my laptop. Need to get a dongle for the lappy and check it out.
Data cable comes default. With a CD for the 'Mobile phone tools' application. I had some erratic connection experiences with it - but I think its more of an installation problem on my lappy than a problem with the phone/cable. I've planned to reinstall but, alas, laziness ...
4. Memory
can't recall .. guess you need to refer to their site for this one ..
5. It has a colour display on top too. You can actually switch on the camera/video, close the cover and see yourself on the top screen and 'shoot' urself !
There's a smart key on the side to which I believe you can assign some functions .. yet to check it out.
6. Resolution : Again .. better to refer to the site .. The UI is a pleasure to use. The fonts, the themes .. verrrry nice. Screen for all practical purposes is pretty bright and good.
7. No FM. No MP3. Though you can download songs to the phone as ringtones and play them. But don't think there's too much space to keep a playlist plus methinks the speaker is more suited for ringtones than songs. The PC software lets you edit mp3's. I use a snippet of Kenny G's Songbird as my ringtone.
8. Build quality very good .. you'll love to hold it ! And the metallic feel does make a difference in these days of plasticky phones .. It looks better when you open it and you'll feel that the top could have been a bit more attractive .. but the matt finish has it's advantages as in not getting dirty to easily.
Other trivia:
9. Reception is loud and clear
10. It's got a speaker phone option.
11. Battery life is good. Easily lasts 3-4 days on a charge.
12. Games - Basic ones, plus you can download Java games .. I have got over the mobile gaming phase - hence doesn't interest me much
13. Internet / GPRS etc .. Don't use it .. since I anyway have net access 10hrs everyday
14. Messaging. Lovely interface again. Predictive text is great too. While you type if it predicts a word the word is displayed in light grey .. it's like .. if I have typed 'inter' it may give me 'inter'face together with 'face' in light grey. You can overwrite or accept.
Don't use MMS - not a very good idea too, in this kalyug
15. It slips into your pocket nicely; is very light ; and has a lovely soft leather motorola cover which - and this I liked a lot - does not have a velcro or a button. It has a magnetic strip inside the leather .. great touch.
All in all a phone that performs the basic functions very very well and additionally has some of the gizmos thrown in too.
Frankly I haven't found a single thing about it that I don't like.
