Flagman fashionable series L'Amour Nokia 7390 has once again proved the fairness new trend: branding phone must be quite functional. On the other hand, the modern market offers a large number of machines in which design, as opposed to technical component, given special attention. Therefore, both fashionable and functional model could prove very popular. Design and ergonomics Visually Nokia 7390 is a classic Scandinavian extra bed manufacturer. Image forming shell model represented metal inserts with ornaments and colors, which is chosen in the light of women's, men's and target audiences. Earlier in the L'Amour Collection dominated not very functional telephones. In tests in Onliner went "masculine", a black version of Nokia 7390. First and foremost would like to mention the quality of materials and assembly Packaging model. The phone used black plastic, which is not visible scratches all elements fitted tightly; there is not a hint of movement or other construction deficiencies. Box and the front panel keys - metal. Ornament inserts in male and female models different. Right at the upper end of the strap to provide anchorage. On the back panel you can see the speaker box from the shell of dense resistant to scratches the skin, which helps phone not slide on a sloping surface. Painted plastic part, although because of the characteristic luster recalled metal. Battery compartment lid is a thin, highly susceptible, but it did not break so easily. Besides, installed window 3 - megapixel camera and LED outbreak. Connector microSD memory card format under the rear lid, but could not retrieve vehicle removing the battery. Several model for the image does not have covered at the connectors, but the Nokia 7390 case in this way: 2.5-millimeter headphone output and USB port, acting as the interface connector mounted on the lower front. Nest to connect ZU at the top of the right front. Expand the phone with one hand problematic because mechanism is very weak. Above the screen is the camera for the front edge of the third-generation networks, and next to it - for LED illumination person in the dark. Internal display and keyboard also metal fittings, but there ornament the same for both models colors. Under the keyboard unit noticeable lattice dynamics. Volume fairly even when the phone is in the folded state. Above grate installed rubber gasket, could not come halves. Because of the dynamics of the microphone had to be moved to the top of the shell, but on the quality of conversation is usually not affected, because accidentally cover located on the right valve hole quite difficult. The keyboard, joystick and other elements of governance are convenient to use, Sydney softly and clearly. Contour and the central key are convex enough to exclude casual pressing neighboring elements. Domestic fairly large buttons and external well, so the problems with their use will not even owners of long nails. Little power key unusually located on the right front. The buttons let you control the display of external camera, audio and radio. In order to avoid accidental pressing them can be easily blocked. Same screen has almost ideal angles review and color. The same can be said of the internal display: it is one of the best on the market. However, the brightness of the two screens is clearly insufficient. Menu and function Program Nokia 7390 is based on the same platform as the Nokia 5200 (we tested previously) - this S40 FP2. But to use this model is much easier than the same Nokia 5200, because of higher screen resolutions. Furthermore, the representative of L'Amour-series comes with a rich set of graphics and sound. Freeport places in the phone is about 25 Mb (out of 30 available), but given the availability of slots for memory cards is not fatal. All applications, including A2DP profile player and, in so similar Nokia 5200. Quality BEHRINGER above average. Work equalizer marked feature stereo expansion also felt. Connecting on USB perhaps in one of three modes: a removable drive, systemic treatment for work with PC Suite player and a special regime for "fueling" music via Windows Media Player, or compatible program. Among other things worth noting dating application for Nokia Sensor, as well as up-to-date fan shopping for a programme of world-converter size shoes and clothes. Games just four: three-dimensional rally, three-dimensional Snake, flash-game and inherited from the Nokia 5200 Music Guess. The latter, with an extensive media library carries away a long time. Productivity average phone. Compare it with the already mentioned can be representative of the same programmatic platform, but better results Nokia 5200 is more due to the low-resolution display. Camera Photographs obtained juicy and bright, Auto excellent job with its work. Q negative sides camera is often mistaken include automatic white balance and color effects a small number of (black-and-white, sepia, negative). Maximum permission photo - 1536 h2048. Keep a snapshot can be in three modes quality. The quality of the video - one of the best to date. When solving a maximum 640 х480 and no restrictions on the length of the file allows the Nokia 7390 to withdraw even filmi, but dynamic scenes may appear squares and artifacts. The latter can be corrected in the new version of firmware, as a programmatic problem - simply lacked the video bitrate. In general, the work of the special chamber claims it is, and all the usual standard (except for high-resolution, of course). The impressions and conclusions Like any branding device, Nokia 7390 will be its buyer primarily due to an attractive appearance. However, the phone can be safely recommended to all the demanding functionality to users. Problems with the display will likely be addressed in an updated version of the firmware, although the bulk of consumers certainly did not know about it. On the positive side has been the model of pleasing appearance, quality corps and keyboard, as well as fairly extensive functionality. Less Nokia 7390 is primarily a lack of software. Task same audience L'Amour Collection this feature, according to the manufacturer, is not needed.

Nokia 6500 slide, according to the index, belongs to a series of business phones. This can be seen as accurate stylish design and support of the four GSM bands and two UMTS. At the same time, extensive multimedia functions, a powerful camera, the ability to output images on TV make apparatus beyond business class. Design Design slider made in the traditional style to the Finnish producer. Nokia 6500 phones recall existing in the first place because of the keyboard unit. Nevertheless, the model draws attention, and looks very stylish. The body and chassis are made of metal. Outside of the hull - it is stainless steel. Facial parties have expressed an invoice. Inscriptions on the casing and keys engraved and painted resistant black paint. The chassis is made of a thick metal. Its visible part located on the back of the upper halves and around the numeric keypad, painted black. Removing the battery compartment lid, can be seen fixing memory card, and under it - slot for a SIM card. Both are unavailable during a rechargeable battery. Details attached to the main motherboard using plastic element. He runs the entire perimeter of the bottom halves. Visible top and bottom black lacquered parts belong to him. He also attached metal lining and side. Note that the manufacturer did not hide as usual fixing screws. Previously found only in such models and Series 8 xxx Vertu phones. Subjectively, both apparatus looks more blatantly, but perhaps more firmly and qualitatively. However, even when closed, when the retention hidden, the phone looks expensive. After multiple complaints on the quality of implementation slider in N80 and N95, in the 6500 model (as well as in the 6110 Navigator), the company was able to realize just excellent and fastening mechanism. Even rabid fans Bugs Samsung will be happy. Both halves ideally sit in their seats when the phone is closed, and very quietly move if opened. Minimum course (less than one millimeter), we may experience during a keyboard in front of the opened slider. Actually, this feature virtually invisible. It can be detected only when specifically draw attention. Disclose and help close the apparatus special rubber strips below the display. However, its design is such that traces a finger on the screen will still remain. The thickness of the shell (16.4 mm) is far from record levels. It is more than the E65, but less than the 6110 Navigator, or N95. Staff conveniently fits in the palm, they are convenient to use. And, in the open and closed all the keys are in their seats. Problem with no ergonomics at all, unless, of course, does not take into account the complexity of access to the memory card. All interface connectors (microUSB, 2.5 mm for the charger) installed at the upper end of the opening next to the mouse button battery compartment lid. At the end of the right keys were loud and cameras, on the left - for the attachment of the strap. Above the display are the voice speaker, camera and sensor for edge lighting. His loudness and quality slightly above average. Nothing outstanding, it is acceptable. Standard keys on the front panel are made for the general background of the shell. Some of them crying pronounced texture may not like. Ergonomics buttons just excellent. Convenient contour, replacing the joystick is looming over the hull, so the user from accidental pressing. Digital keyboard also attracted to emotions. The top number has been removed from the hull, so access to the keys is not difficult. 2,2-inch QVGA display shows excellent image. Slightly changing the brightness is tilted, but it is not prevented. The last parameter is set automatically by the sensor lighting. It can not customize the menu. This feature extends the time an autonomous work. Damage from the additional glass screen protected. This wonderful feature underlines the quality of the construction corps and brings even more expensive device to a series of 8 xxx. Functionality Review of programming part can be seen in the article about the Nokia 7500 Prism. Both apparatus constructed on the basis of Nokia S40 5th Edition, and have similar features. The main differences from the previous platform - improved player with skins support, unified communications and editor support MIDP 2.1. The user is available 20 MB of memory. Productivity in the tests is at a level similar Bugs Nokia and slightly above average. The list of supported profiles is: A2DP, AVRCP, DUN, FTP, GAP, GAVDP, GOEP, HFP, HSP, OPP, SAP, SDAP, SDP, and SPP. There is support for wireless stereo and other necessary profile. Transfer files via USB are in the order of the speed of 1.5 MB / s or less. This is a rather slow. When connecting cables being charging the phone. For Nokia devices is still a rarity. In the future, this feature will support all phones microUSB-connector. Recall charger and headphones connected to dedicated interfaces, which is very convenient. The list of games is: backgammon Backgammon 2, golf Golf Tour, poker Highroller Casino, Race Rally 3D, Snake Snake 3. List of appendices: converter values Opera mini, Presenter, Download, Search, Sensor, world time, Yahoo! Go. Nothing new is not found. Very pleased with the extensive list of games and the availability of Sensor. For the first time we saw him in 5200 and the Nokia 5300. The user is invited to go through nearby Bluetooth phones Nokia owners with similar interests, which can be set using the Sensor. FM radio only works with a wired headset connected. Supports Visual Radio, autosearch and RDS. In memory stores up to 20 channels. Everything that is happening on the display can be displayed on the TV screen with the cable package. The quality of images produced is the same as the N95, N93 and other devices with this feature. Notably, the first Finnish company has set this option is not in the smartphone. There are settings images: PAL / NTSC, 4:3 / 16:9. Time autonomous work can be guessed after a cursory look at the complete set. It is standard for this class of phones. Battery BP-5M allows dispensing with the charger 2 - 3 days. If there is a USB cable and quarantine work at home, this option is less critical. This is already a step forward, because sooner with intensive use had to buy another charger for emergency or kredl charges in the workplace. Camera The proud inscription Carl Zeiss promises high quality pictures. For all calibration is a little worse. Providing excellent rendition, a beautiful white balance and exposure good shots saved with a high compression ratio, even when the maximum level of quality. Around the fine details appear glamour compression artifacts, and photography seems slightly blurry. There are also other drawbacks. Auto often misses when shooting at close range, sometimes dark plots obtained dark green, moving objects may be smearing. It works fast enough. Appreciably faster than in the N95, or N73. On the positive points also include up-to-date-LED outbreak. You can, of course, and get exposed frame, but it is more the exception than the rule. Conclusions The Nokia 6500 is wonderfully designed, packaged as a high-quality and durable metal body. The model is well and firmly in looks, has a very comfortable keyboard and runs under the latest version of Nokia S40 platform. The user carried a number of multimedia features: 3 - megapixel camera with the possibility of shooting in VGA video-solving, the ability to output images on TV. Among the weaknesses - the lack of "hot" replacing the memory card and normal for this class of devices, but still too weak battery. List merits Nokia 6500 incomparably greater. At this time, the price of high slider, which allows buyers to feel themselves owners of exclusive apparatus? By year end, it should drop, which will make the phone almost ideal and worthy replacement Nokia 6300 and 6233.

SonyEricsson T250i from all directions. When we took apparatus in the hands, the impression that we are at least the average phone price category.
But all hopes were dashed as soon as we have it and look at the screen. However, not rushing forward and pause until the appearance.

The body of the phone metallic, rectangular shape, color choice, metallic or black. Black box under the screen is about half the panel. The screen is actually much smaller. This, too, found only when you turn. At the perimeter of the tube sideways given notches mercury lamp. It marks the border panels.

Left empty flat, at just the right infrared window. Above is the connector for connecting a headset and charger. More on the case of any element not, which, again, can be misleading. Is this not one of the characteristics of the image models. The back side is one solid battery compartment lid. It has a slot for the lattice dynamics and square built camera lens.

Of course, if a close look at the panels, it will become clear that they are imbued cheap. Coverage quickly scratched. But remember, often do you form a friend or colleague mobile.  Your conscience subterranean way, the first impression. A first impression from the outside appearance SonyEricsson T250i will be quite good.

Keyboard SonyEricsson T250i. Navigator square, sending functions marked on them and, as you know, fixed permanently.
This activation of the camera, built radio, the creation of a new post, or viewing the phonebook. At sending is, he element on which to tap a finger. Upper soft-key metallic colored shape, never identified. Keys work with the challenges identified the appropriate symbols. Digital keys, too, and the rectangular convex. Between columns, and there are strings air. (Between columns, a little more.) On the buttons work better pillow fingers. Both the cyan color. Good Old lights ... But the uneven. First and last column much less fortunate than the median. Proceedings of the buttons yearnings. We want it to be a little softer.

Screen. It warmed and crop our last hope. The screen is small, unnatural colors, visible grain lines is not sufficient and, consequently, the producer made simply ridiculous reduction. For example, in the view mode instead of "make a photo caption on the screen shows" only "make" photos.

Meanwhile, its properties are: display before 65,000 colors and resolution 128 of 160 pixels. Should I tell, it looked like a photo made by the built-0,3 – mpx camera?

In recruiting screen reminds Sabbath variations in the budget from Samsung. But large numbers, so the phone will be comfortable with the work, even for people with poor eyesight. That adds to an audience of potential buyers of older people.

The size and weight. Weighing tube 82 grams. Weight, of course, adds metallized corpus. Because when available dimensions (100 h45h13) SonyEricsson T250i could weigh and the less. With and say, a thin and compact apparatus. It will not be visible or in the rear, or even in the front pocket, but not lost in the arm. And even a man with large fingers will be comfortable working with the tubes. Again, we note that the developer has tried. Kind of like, unusual, but look carefully model. Mobile excellently located in the arm, and cover corps pleased fiber skin.

Sound. Developer downloaded into the memory of the 12 tunes challenge. They are good, but typical and uninteresting. There are infrared, hence, can be downloaded something better. Maximum volume is worthy of the name. Or, just in case sharpness sound. But we have kept the call even in a noisy crowded place. Vibro weak. He works anything and felt only when the phone is at hand. For the bottom bags message to you is no longer comes. Sound radio is distinct claims.

Battery. LI capacity of 780 mAh battery will allow you not remember charger failure of at least 5 to 6 days. And if not will often listen to the radio, and then the whole week. Full charging will take just over two hours, and the phone again will be ready to battle.

Included items:

* Nokia 5700 Xpress Music;
* charger;
* external control unit;
* headset;
* cable connection to a PC;

Appearance and usability

Taste and color, as we know, friends, and if there are, they are not too many. This is the idea born when the tests were given to the color red phone, which rather than youth, namely the female. Indeed, the color is not a smartphone Ferrari color, sex, and often prejudge future owner. We, of course, get to the tests black, but there was no choice, and not the color is important in the study of functions. Form Packaging is the same as that of predecessor, the Nokia 3250. Part, which provides a keyboard, turning the situation bloc clearly recorded in the provisions of 90, 180 and 270 degrees. Articulation turning parts reliable, but there is hardly noticeable loose, and not know how it will be a year's use.
The body is made of several kinds of materials. At the upper end, and at the end of the block, turning thick white plastic with a smooth surface, which is covered fairly quickly by small scratches. Cover battery compartment-red plastic surface type soft-touch. Sidewall shell made of plastic, which is not afraid of the appearance of scratches. In order not to raise the confusion components of the device description of the installation will be a turning block to position the phone.

On the front panel above the standard 2,2 inch screen is a phone dynamics and Light sensor. A crane is located a block from the start and end keys conversation, the two soft-key and joystick, on the edges of the entrance are keys to the menu and erasing. All keys narrow, but problems arise only by pushing too hard keys at the edges of the shell. A separate attention joystick: a standard 4-position, and he is also a key entry, with a small motorized deepening the middle, so when using the finger is not taught it slip.

Below is a turning block numeric keypad. Keys big and slightly convex, which allows dial number blindly. Keys traditional "pencil" in the Nokia 5700 not, it performs the role of "#" button. 5700-It is not the first smartphone platform S60, which prevented normal "pencil" that is likely to be minus, because habit is not always easy to defeat. Both the white keys, not too bright glow. The uneven illumination, and extreme keys highlighted weaker.
Behind most of the battery compartment lid is, and only at a turning block are three keys player management: Reverse forward and, beginning / pause playback, the last button is also a key mode shooting photos and videos.
To remove the battery compartment cover, for the start of the rotation keyboard layout block, allowing access to the slot and would easily lift the lid. Removal of the battery alone is not such a simple exercise. The battery is kept so tenacious that the ladies is used, for example, handle, but otherwise it would be possible to damage the manicure. Mounting SIM card delicate, and when a new map can be on the move allows snap off, that just did not happen during the test.
At the upper end is the only keys, which, when clicked prolonged turn it on or off a device with a short-term cause-choice menu profiles.
Bottom is 2,5 mm connector to connect the remote control unit to stir hole fastening strap and built-in microphone.
Display

In 5700 applied to the screen diagonal 2,2 '- resolution qVGA (320 х240 points), reflecting up to 16 million colors. Display and bright little blinded by ingestion of direct sunlight, because he performed on the basis of reflecting, it is in sunny day lights in principle is not required. Matrix protected thick transparent plastic packaging.
Sound

Above the sound quality job well, but otherwise, and there can be no-name oblige. The first, of course, was tested sound system speakers. Player and can be run in a telephone situation, but listening through the built-acoustic system is better accommodate the dynamics on the same side. Listening to the first songs, surprisingly, the second is already admiration. Sound net, a high-volume, there are even hints of the presence of bass and high frequency. Not every laptop can boast such a voice.

But there are couple of shortcomings. Equalizer settings when listening via the dynamics of little influence on the sound (all the same size speakers impose some restrictions), in addition, the phone does not support Russian ID tags. The headset consists of two parts: a control unit with a 4 - 2,5 mm plug and plug headphones with a standard mini - 3,5 mm. At block management are keys adjust the volume, track change, start / pause playback, a response to the call button and microphone. Established headphones sound good, but certainly every phone music, it can be set to invest in something more expensive, especially since the standard connector, but given that the microphone is on the block, administration, staff can collapse headphones at once. Using headphones is not very compact open raises the sound quality at least order.

Market leader desktop known as a producer of other devices. Visitors have several years popular PDA and Communicators series iPAQ. Finally, the company NR courage to release the first smartphone. As in the case of Communicators, NR itself produces no product-development and production were put at the mercy of vendors producer. However, doubt the success of new items are not accounted for. The company's products are very popular. HP Printers are probably the most Russian offices. IPAQ Smartphone 514 Voice Messenger also méticuleux in the corporate sector, was not by chance emphasis on the management of voice and IP telephony.

Appearance baby smartphone is not affected by any designer eye. This high bar with angles, small size and weight-average characteristic of most Windows Mobile- stop.

Convex key numeric keypad and navigation unit comfortable with the work. Projections 5 button help in the recruitment text blindly. However, like naughty developers for the lack of segmentation keys.

Most lack of a budget-screen. This 2-inch matrix with a resolution of 220 x 176 pixels and 65 thousand flowers. Such displays installed in the most affordable Windows Mobile- stop. But those devices NR expect more.

HP iPAQ 514 Voice Messenger, among other things, full-Quad- phone. And then, and will work in North America. There GPRS and EDGE.

Bluetooth Wireless communication is not presented the latest version 1.2. But the main thing smartphone-a Wi-Fi (802.11 b / g). It is used primarily for the use of VoIP. There will be redundant and miniUSB- connector to synchronize.

Program apparatus built on the Windows Mobile platform fresh 6 Standard. Apart from the usual applications have the means to voice management smartphone. Joke if available, two dozen voice to listen to email, SMS and other things. Voice can run individual applications, not wasted in the name of smartphone meets Voice Messenger.

Musical ability is limited smartphone scarcity Windows Media Player. We suggest a way audio

Built 1,3-megapikselnaya optional camera, two tournaments have been more appropriate. In any case, her presence is welcome, since passion machines initiated E-series Nokia left out.

Productivity HP iPAQ 514 Voice Messenger is comparable with those of other byudzhetnikov on Windows Mobile. Good Old TI OMAP 850200 MHz provides acceptable speed. But no more. Movies without converting, you can hardly see.

The battery capacity of 1100 mAh missing an average of two days. However, the use of Wi-Fi plant battery faster.

Strangely enough, but comparable in functionality (Wi-Fi) competitors have no news NR. You may recall that of Nokia E60 and smartphones platform Tornado (Qtek 8300/8310, SP5/SP5m VAT), but they are difficult to find for sale.

Overall, the HP iPAQ 514 Voice Messenger get mixed device. Its characteristics are somewhat unbalanced. Latest version OS flavors of Wi-Fi and mobile VoIP coexist with old-fashioned screen and weak processor. But both characteristics stronger, it would be a different structure and a different price.

It is known that the Russian company Rover Computers actively collaborating with OEM manufacturers of mobile devices. This leads to interesting new vehicles, most of which are very inexpensive. Further this budget smartphone - RoverPC R5.

Competition among low-cost "wait" in the recent brutal. RoverPC R5 Opportunity and the price is the rival of his predecessor, RoverPC M5. Curious to see whether the new items it finds a strong case in their favor.

RoverPC M5 (his final version without Wi-Fi), a Taiwan company TechFaithWireless (TFW). RoverPC R5 was set up other kinds collector-Amoi Electronics Co. The Chinese company, a manufacturer of digital technology a couple of years ago, has already tried to establish the Russian market with their phones (camp Amoi F90 and F80). Now working with Rover Computers led to a smartphone R5.

As RoverPC M5, built on the new Windows Mobile 5.0 for Smartphone. But soon they can pereproshit its Windows Mobile Standard 6. This is one of the main advantages news.

In design RoverPC R5 dominated straight lines. Smartphone is symmetrical in relation to that wine as rulers. It should be noted Packaging materials. Rarely found State employees are fully made of a pleasant and practical plastic soft-touch left. Note the high quality of the assembly.

Navigation block on 5-position joystick, and six buttons. Digital Keyboard with knopkami- rollers recalls that the phone Motorola E398. Keys are located close to each other, but they are easy to work with a comfortable swing.

Screen RoverPC R5 immediately issue in the smartphone State employees. Grim matrix with low resolution (176 x 220 pixels) does not exceed screen predecessor RoverPC M5.

Communication links in the model presented GPRS / EDGE. Bluetooth version 1.2, with support for A2DP profile, infrared disappeared.

In the best tradition of Windows Mobile- stop there miniUSB connector. However, quickly fill microSD- card via cable fail, it is possible to replace the hot cards. The relative rarity at a time when producers prefer to hide slot under the battery cover.

The interface is familiar to any Windows Mobile smartphone. Standard applications provide every opportunity to work, but for the full comfort needed some additional programming from the office package and Internet browser and ending with the file manager and Media.

1,3-megapikselnaya camera indicates possibility RoverPC R5. About as pictures say no. At the right end of a dedicated button access to the chamber. There is a mirror for the portrait, no outbreaks. Digital zoom, as well as setting the camera on a fan.

Video is to allow 176 x 144 pixels, with no limit on time (as far enough memory).

The overall impression of dark smartphone dilutes productive processor is a TI OMAP V1030 260 MHz. Very high performance also by the low screen resolution. When working with a large number of applications, of course, would like more RAM. But 64 MB RAM and 128 MB ROM, perhaps for a long time will be the standard for the budget and stop Communicators.

At the time of autonomous RoverPC R5 records is not. Standard two days, with an average load. A more extensive use of multimedia smartphone will be charged every day.

With the price less than 8 thousand rub. RoverPC R5 could be a good choice for those who wish to buy the first smartphone. Had it not been much competition. Only among Windows Mobile- devices similar characteristics with several stop: RoverPC M5, NTS S310 (Oxygen), Fly-IQ 110, Voxtel W210, and every advantage. A product NTS The reputation multi leader among manufacturers stop and Communicators, Voxtel W210 has an interesting design, Fly IQ-110 has a better screen and camera.

RoverPC R5 can confront this possibility pereproshivki Windows Mobile Standard 6. This is a great marketing move, calculated to increase sales. The new version of OS, in fact, no fundamental changes. Perhaps not all, apparently more attractive interface.

It may be noted Processors RoverPC R5, and the excellent material shell.

These qualities can provide apparatus from several other low-price, but doing so is difficult, especially given that the class has another strong player.

Phone labeled 6120 from the Finnish company has been, he appeared in 1999 and was one of the first Nokia devices operating in the standard DAMPS.

Today it has another device. In addition to receiving "makeweight" Classic reference in the title. What has been done is not only to avoid confusion - is a new company policy. LG with her unreality family Chocolate and Shine. Impact trend evident in the model Nokia 5500 Sport, 6110 Navigator and fresh 6500 and 6500 Classic Slide.

Returning to the Nokia 6120 Classic, so it can be described is the first fiscal Symbian- smartphone to a new platform Symbian 9.2 S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1 and the new 11369 MHz ARM processor. This processor is a major nightmare for the company. Previously they used "stones" at 220 MHz.

Appearance smartphone wins by using plastic varnished. Markost shell flip side of the coin. Meanwhile, rounded edges and a more than modest size does not share in the Nokia 6120 smartphone. It can be taken for regular monoblock S40 platform. Given the democratic price further reinforces the impression. What is not surprising. Indeed, the Finnish company has long declares driving phones stop in his model range. The only thing that gives Nokia 6120 smartphone, is the controls.

On the edges navigation unit stationed smartfonnye "keys" Call me and C.

As in some recent stop Nokia, no editing keys (the same "pencil"). Actually, it is combined with key #.

Instead joystick used 4-position navigational keys situated on the OK button. This layout (narrow and wide rim central OK button) are some recent models. For example, the Nokia 3110, E65 smartphone. Very convenient solution. Keyboard due to the large screen the most wanted down. However, it is easy to use, with a clear course. Key 5 is protuberances that helps in recruiting blind.

The screen in the best tradition of past models Nokia remarkable. Not the greatest size (two inches) by QVGA- authorization makes very clear image. Maximum colour and comfortable angles review supplement picture. Windows Mobile- devices with their software limitations in 65,536 colors nervously smoking in storonke.

The Nokia 6120 is an overview 3G- apparatus. The front QVGA- camera and support HSCSD-pleasant, but no bonus. Nevertheless, a great feature for State employees.

Other communication also the altitude. Binder GPRS / EDGE and Bluetooth 2.0 EDR support makes no infrared furthering as Wi-Fi, because the price of the Nokia 6120 divine.

Also, the Nokia 6120 can communicate support microSD. Stated capacity memory cards up to 2 GB. So on the cards increased capacity SDHC speech is not.

The user needs to have only 35 MB. With little to smartphone.

Program apparatus built on fresh platform Symbian OS 9.2 S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1. What pleased to State employees. A set of pre-RPN applications for the platform. It will provide Flash player, a functional web browser, pager PDF files, and, of course, QuickOffice. However, the office package unable to edit documents.

Another looking gizmos application to work with GPS. Nokia 6120 has its own GPS receiver. What prevented smartphone with Bluetooth work with external GPS devices. Player RPN to stop at S60 3rd Edition. There is a great number of formats, correctly displayed ID3- tags in Cyrillic. Potential players enough for most users, and if not, there will always be third-party players, for example, to play OGG- files.

Bluetooth A2DP profile supported by the joy of music lovers wirelessly. Note standard 2.5 mm connector for headsets. Recent perform the role of quality antennas for radio.

Features standard for most cell phones stop Nokia middle price range. This 2-megapikselny CMOS- module. There outbreak. Modesty is not, and therefore vulnerable to the Chamber of dust, scratches and fingerprints.
Available four types of permits (a maximum of 1600 x 1200, the minimum-320 x 240 pixels).

In a sparse collection of settings and effects. Which, however, does not impact on the quality of the photographs. The latter is not available.
Nokia 6120 Classic in QVGA- withdrew permission (320 x 240 pixels). Hence, spots not ashamed to show friends. But before the notorious DVD quality video Nokia N93 far.

Smartphone is a price. This is due to the productive processor, as well as the ever-increasing from version to version of Symbian OS optimize resources.

Nokia 6120 Classic shows the expected time. Two days with an average load secured. However, many users will use smartphone more, especially the first few weeks, which go on familiarity with the diversity to power Symbian.

Nokia 6120 Classic is ideal for the role of your first smartphone. It has an attractive design (practical-gloss separate conversation), excellent screen and fresh os. In this competition could be another smartphone Nokia E50.
In any case, this smartphone is a very balanced solution.

Appearance and usability

Externally gSmart little different from most similar devices, not even striking the screen size (2.4 "). The device in his hand is more like a phone than a communicator - perhaps to developers and tried. If you have any experience with Communicators with diagonal screen 2,7-2,8 ", then there will have to adapt to Gigabyte, because when recruiting text stylus virtual keyboard on the first few days often pressing neighbouring but not necessary keys. Ie it will be necessary to go through the same phase "acclimatization" that the transition from 3.5 "screens at the CPC Communicators.

Shell is made of two types of plastic black and silver lines, emuliruyuschy aluminum surface. Build quality is commendable. Neither uneven joints, no lyuftov could not find the battery. Incidentally, the battery cap is the battery. If you tight and rolling extraneous sounds were not observed. Yet in heavy Curl has little To weigh down the body, but such actions have not responded vandalnye screen.

Screen

Normal size screens Communicators is 2.8 "(2.7" from the communicator Mio A701). In all, 2.4 gSmart screen. " Surprisingly, but he did not think small and only with a virtual keyboard will be a period of adaptation. The display -320 х240, and the small size of a barely visible.

Hear adjust the brightness of the whole-5, with no "zero" level, and playing audio files lights not switched off, resulting in a battery of 3,5-4 hours. Procurement menu caused by long pressing "Start" button, which allows the light switch off. To further illuminate the keys used on / off is not the upper end. When light enters bright screen very dull, not even helps illuminate the highest level of brightness. In such a contrast text can be dismantled, but were not able to view the photos.
Sound

Immediately on shortcomings. First, the volume level is not very high, for example, in metro extraneous sounds prevented combining comfort listening to music, but talk on the phone and can be in such circumstances. The volume problem is not only sets, but built momentum telephone. The second disadvantage in an incredibly long headset wires to the microphone to the ear (50 cm) and the microphone not to consolidate Syderarium, it hangs at the waist, but the microphone is very sensitive, and even in such circumstances the caller will hear you clearly. Embedded system dynamics very loud and, despite miniature size, it appears sound, although higher and lower frequencies do not have to talk. It is noteworthy that a microphone headset higher than built. During the call, it is possible to record the conversation both subscribers as built-in memory and memory card.

TV receiver

The main thing communicator-built analog TV tuner. A screenshot showing the program TV viewing, do not. The program can auto and manual channel (preserving options), adjust color, brightness, contrast and sound level. Television Viewing is possible with audio, as headphones, and the system dynamics. Using a headset antenna in the centre of the city has set up an only 3 channels. Under cross through automobile antenna situation improved and the image ceased to stay in motion. Connecting to the communicator cable TV channels has been set in automatic mode, and search channels happened very quickly.

There is also the possibility to connect a compact telescopic antenna, but it is only complete with a model gSmart 120 or purchased separately.
Photo / Video Camera

In communicator uses CCD sensor 2.1 Mp. The camera can operate in two modes-focus macro and landscape. It is possible white balance settings (auto, day, overcast, fluorescence bulb night), seven effects processing images, the introduction of adjusting exposure from -2 to +2, a timer, plant size image (160 * 120, 320 * 240, 640 * 480, 800 * 600, 128 * 960, 1600 * 1200) and the installation of jpeg compression (poor, good, excellent). In practice, the quality of the image compression quality is very little, because from photographs far from ideal and difficult to spoil. In general, as compared with images made by the CPC and other communicators.

Conclusions

Communicator is built on a processor Intel xScale 416 MHz and showed average results while testing - no apparent losses or gains before competitors do not. gSmart 128 unfamiliar screen equipped with 2.4-inch diagonal, it would have to adapt to the size.

Its main feature, analog TV reception, is not stable, especially when using headphones as an antenna. Using external antenna coupling and the situation is changing for the better. But the best TV reception in the field with foreign car antennas, of course, linked through cross. Connecting to cable TV communicator can "enjoy" viewing all available channels.

Although the cover of the kit and quality, but not very useful, because it can not be used to connect a headset.

Overall communicator get very interesting. Good quality materials and assembly, wireless modules GSM, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, as well as TV and FM tuner. Only what is missing is a full set of support EDGE.

Included items

At the engineering sample testing came in a white package. The package delivery business model is somewhat different.

Scope of supply includes engineering design: himself communicator, a charger with adapter for CIS, cable USB-miniUSB synchronization with the PC, wired Stereo with the connector micro-jack (2.5 mm) and the apron of tissue.

Love of the kit is not similar to the one that comes with X500 model. To strengthen its belt as possible with the help of Staples, and through loops, which is set button.

Commercial models also include the user manual, a warranty card, spare stylus, as well as disk drivers and software. Anchorages in the car windscreen, as in the case of H500, is not complete, but it can be purchased as an enhancement.

Appearance and usability

Keyboard communicator M700 has a 5 mm thicker than the X500 model, but it is thinner than the nearest competitor HTC TyTN 2 mm. Shell is made of two types of plastic: the front and back of a smooth gray plastic, white in color silver metallic, on the sides of gray plastic, white in color gray metallic. At back corpus is "rigid ribs, which are likely to lock in better hands than to shell strength. Fixation very good communicator and is not trying to evade a hand. Front Panel thin and strong pressure notably windscreens. There are comments on the battery compartment lid, so that it withdraw, to start to walk stylus.

With tight and started rolling communicator splits and issue mass frightening sounds. In principle, this cost expected because shell is monoblock, and Slider. In addition, in order to make the keyboard to be strictly centered sunroof panel or from two sides simultaneously. It happens off and the panel stuck (at the nearest competitor HTC TyTN this shortcoming was not observed). Weight is low, only 165 grams, and because of a long device appears feeling vacuum in the tank.
Traditionally for ETEN (more accurately now Glofiish) on the front of the mass of keys. Under the standard screen key communicators: the beginning and end of the talk, two soft keys (which work with communicator without using stylus), joystick with key evidence in the center. By the last, there are several claims. First, the joystick is hard and strong pressure on the arrow keys are not rare keypress confirmation, because it strongly supports. Claims have and the very key evidence, it is mounted rubber membrane and recalls mini joysticks CPC Mitac Mio, which indeed it is a starting point for the joystick. Lights joystick and buttons blue glow in the dark and it looks very interesting. On display two reprogrammable key (default call "Contact" and utilities M-Desk), a center speaker phone.

Also on the front, on reprogrammable keys are two LED activity communicator, which displays the status of the battery, activity wireless interfaces and GPS receiver. Also, the law states orange indicator light effect of missed calls and reminders.

The keyboard is quite large (minimum size keys x 8 mm). Lights uniform, gently blue, and all keys clearly visible. Digital keyboard allocated more dark-key. Unfortunately, the test was an engineering sample and the keys were only Latin characters (and stapling English translation of "Russian" firmware failed). Therefore, the convenience keys were assessed in English texts. Purely subjective opinion is much more convenient than the HTC TyTN and the more than Qtek 9100. What did not like is the location of soft keys on the side of the main keyboard, the keys themselves miniature size and are back to the main keyboard.
At the end is right: the camera button, reset the hole (reset) and the key on / off.

Screen

Display 2.8-inch diagonal, 320 х240 points, displays 65,535 colors. Screen bright and contrast. In direct sunlight enters the screen just away, but even in those circumstances it is comfortable. Adjusting brightness is 11 positions, but without the full off lights. The maximum level of illumination is so bright that hardly anyone will use it.

Sound subsystem

In conversation with a wired stereo sound very good, as well, and you will be heard. In conversation without sets in noisy places, there is insufficient volume of telephone dynamics. In conversation on means of enhancing handsfree voice could not talk while up to four meters from the communicator, but at maximum volume system dynamics is a little wheeze and subscriber at the other end "conductor" is beginning to hear their echoes, but that is the problem for most phones with handsfree. When listening through a headset communicator can be top dance (although frankly cheap headset), but on a systems dynamics long music does not want to listen, because sound quality is far from ideal, and the maximum volume trends have begun wheeze.

Photo / video camera

The camera is equipped with a 2-megapikselnym sensor. The quality of images is far from even cheaper, and perhaps come to tying photos to a number in the contact list. Built outbreak barely sufficient to remove pictures in the dark from a distance of no more than 70-100 see

It is possible to select movies, a set of jpeg photos or bmp, installation of images (1600 2800, 1280 h960, 640 h480, х240 320, 176 h144), the installation of one of the six white balance settings, and automatic mode, the installation effects (normal, negative, black and white, sepia, mirror image).

Conclusions

E-TEN Glofiish M700 showed himself very well. Yet it has flaws and they relate mostly shell. Just did not like the situation soft keys on the keyboard, and ASR is not very convenient basic joystick. On the menu can be attributed to the shortcomings of microSD memory cards, because dig in for full cards. And the main disadvantage of NAND memory with a low speed reading. Now on corrected deficiencies that were found in the X500 model (it is cool, but with the M700 are very close relatives). The main drawback X500 brighter divorce on the screen with the slightest pressure, the M700 is missing. Communicator comes with a full set of wireless interfaces: v2.0 + EDR Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GSM module, module EDGE, FM radio and GPS.

In fact, the market M700 is the only GPS communicator with a QWERTY keyboard and a powerful processor (HTC P3300 not by as built on the basis of slow processor Texas OMAP 200 MHz). Of the major competitors are still only TyTN HTC, which is equipped with 3G module (not popular in the CIS), but is not so helpful on board GPS.
