Sony Ericsson C702 review: Allroad Cyber-shot


Sony Ericsson C702 review: Allroad Cyber-shot

The Sony Ericsson Cyber-shot family welcomed two new members in February. We already gave you a glimpse of the 5-megapixel C902, and now junior has the stage all to itself in our Sony Ericsson C702 review. The two sharpshooters clearly have different targets. The yummy Sony Ericsson C702 review: Allroad Cyber-shot

Camera features like Auto Rotate, BestPic and Photo Flash, along with the TV Out, were obviously reserved for the 5MP Cyber-shot C902. Sony Ericsson C702 on the other hand is keen to impress with GPS and splash and dust resistance. Its 3-megapixel camera takes advantage of geotagging, and features face detection, red-eye reduction, autofocus and dual LED.

The C702 also bundles up HSDPA 3.6 Mbps, FM radio with RDS, Media center, Bluetooth v2.0 with A2DP and the respectable 160MB of built-in memory.

Key features

Splash and dust resistant
Built-in GPS receiver
3 megapixel camera with active lens cover and dual LED flash
Face detection and geotagging, fast autofocus
Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE, HSDPA (3.6 Mbps) in the European version
Fingerprint resistant case
FM radio with RDS
Bluetooth (with A2DP)
Tracker sports application
Memory card slot for M2 cards (up to 8GB M2 cards supported)

Main disadvantages

Controversial looks
No office documents viewer
Awkward volume/zoom rocker
No TV out

Sony Ericsson C702 is a new Cyber-shot bar. Enough has been said already about the new Sony Ericsson naming convention. Suffice to say, it's now C for Cyber-shot.

Another interesting fact is that this is the first splash and dust resistant Sony Ericson handset. The C702 also features the GPS-based Tracker sports application. Clearly, it's a phone for the youth and the sports minded. We're reviewing the Cool Cyan variety (yeah right, someone had to tell us it's cool), but there's a Speed Black alternative for the not so easily trusting.Sony Ericsson C702 review: Allroad Cyber-shot

Samsung i780


The Samsung "i" line of smartphones have taken quite a lot of different shapes and seen OS implementations ranging from Symbian to Windows Standard and Pro. There are, however, five birds of a feather that do stand out with QWERTY keyboards and uniform design. Samsung i320 was the pacemaker, followed shortly by Samsung i600. There are of course the US-oriented Blackjacks Samsung i607 and Samsung i617.

Now, the subject of our review Samsung i780 is in that bunch but not quite, being the only PocketPC in the lot. Other Windows Mobile Pro devices seem nowhere in sight for the near future, with the two most recent i-series announcements both running on Windows Standard. The QWERTY slider Samsung i640 has just been released, while the low-key Samsung i200 is still cooking.

Key features

* Unique dual mode touchpad navigation
* Built-in GPS with A-GPS support
* Large 2.55" 320x320 pixels TFT touchscreen display
* Good preloaded content
* Innovative home screen plug-in
* Wi-Fi, Bluetooth with A2DP
* HSDPA, 3.6 Mbps
* Fast Marvell PXA3xx processor
* 256MB ROM and 128MB RAM (~ 150MB is user available)
* Full QWERTY keyboard
* 2 megapixel camera

Main disadvantages

* Unpopular display resolution creates poor compatibility with third-party software
* Camera has no autofocus, nor LED flash
* The num-pad is quite crammed

Samsung i780 sets a firm foot on the path trodden by Samsung i600, and brings a good set of hardware innovations and utilities. In brief, there's the dual mode optical joystick (or trackpad, if you prefer - seems Samsung haven't yet made up their mind either), the fast processor and 256MB ROM, built-in GPS with A-GPS support and a 2MP camera. On the software side, you get the homescreen sidebar (the Orange version only), Photo Slides, Mini Player, Contents manager, Java launcher, elaborate Wake-up alarm, etc.


Samsung i780 is powered by a capable Marvell processor and has 256MB ROM and 128MB RAM. The user available onboard memory is about 150MB. Given those values, the superb performance of i780 is no surprise. Just as a reference point, we played a near VGA quality XviD movie (with no video conversions) and it ran flawlessly. The movie playback passed with flying colors with only a couple of dropped frames in a 5-minute video.

Samsung stays faithful to microSD (TransFlash) memory card support to enable memory expansion. The memory card is accessible as a Mass Storage device from your PC, so the phone can also be used as a portable drive. That's with a twist though, as you need the Samsung USB cable - there is no standard miniUSB slot on this baby.

Both phone memory and the memory card are also accessible over TCP/IP and ActiveSync protocols making picture copying, ringtones saving, etc. a piece of cake.

Samsung F700


Samsung F700

The F700 is pretty much where it all began for Samsung and large touchscreens. It was their
first mobile phone to feature a three-and-above-inch touchscreen display while back in the
day 3 megapixel autofocus cameras were still high-end stuff. As time went by Samsung F490
and the Samsung Armani phone loomed into prominence, and there are a few more coming up. And guess what, none of them has the bulky QWERTY underside. That should tell you something.

Points to Remember while buying Mobile Phone


Top 10 Buying Tips

1. Ask around about the best carrier. Coverage and call quality vary widely between the six national carriers. The carriers will tell you that they're perfect, so ask neighbors, friends, and co-workers about who has the best coverage where you live, work and travel.

2. Pay attention to battery life. A dead phone is no phone at all, so look for a phone's "continuous talk time" rating. Assume you'll be able to go a day without charging for each hour of talk time.

3. Test the speaker. Usually, you'll be able to make local calls with a test phone at the wireless store. Make sure voices come through loud enough and clear enough.

4. Take a hands-off approach when driving. Several states now require you to use a hands-free kit in your car. For a car phone, look for speaker-independent voice commands so you don't have to touch the phone to dial. Try to find a phone with Bluetooth wireless capability for the widest selection of wireless headsets.

5. Keep an eye out for nickel-and-diming. Your base plan may not include instant messaging, picture messaging, e-mail access or calls in rural areas. If you're going to do any of those things, make sure it's included.

6. Shop in person, but buy online. Always go to a store to check out phone keypads, screens and speakers. But check carriers' Web sites and independent retailers like amazon.com for online deals once you've settled on a product.

7. Lock yourself in. Advertised, super-low prices for phones almost always require signing up for a new, two-year contract. Read the fine print to find the price for a phone with a one-year contract. If signing any contract drives you to distraction, check out no-commitment phones like AT&T's GoPhone or Virgin Mobile's prepaid service.

8. Consider a family plan. These are always the best deal for couples or families with multiple phones. You share a bucket of minutes, each get your own phone number and can save up to 50% over getting separate plans.

9. Get the right bands for your trips. If you travel between US cities, make sure your phone has both 850 and 1900 Mhz bands for the best coverage. If you often travel in the rural USA, an analog band will help big-time. And if you regularly go overseas, get a 'worldphone' with the 1800 Mhz band.

10. Don't be afraid to give it back. Most carriers offer a 15-day period when they'll take a phone back, no questions asked. Use your phone heavily the first week after you buy it. If anything deeply disturbs you – muffled sound, dead areas, a limp battery – return it and get a new one.

Luxury Serenata, a High-End 4GB Music Mobile


Samsung and B&O team up for Serenata music phone
Bang & Olufsen and Samsung's latest mobile collaboration is the luxury Serenata, a high-end 4GB music mobile

Samsung has teamed up with Bang & Olufsen to produce a stunning luxury 4GB music phone, the Serenata.

Designed by Bang & Olufsen's in-house team, the Serenata combines an eye-catchingly unusual but elegant rounded design with cracking music features and state-of-the-art mobile operation.

The handset is packed with 4GB of solid state memory (plus an additional 25MB), capable of storing 1,000 music tracks, and comes with high-end music features including a built-in high quality hi-fi stereo speaker system. The Serenata can also play music through Bang & Olufsen's supplied EarSet3 earphones.

The Serenata is equipped with 3G HSDPA technology for high speed downloading, streaming and web browsing. Instead of regular key controls, It uses a click wheel navigation system complemented by "sensi-touch" control on the 2.26-inch display. The display changes colour from blue to red, depending on whether it's in phone or music mode, to make the interface more user-friendly.

The phone supports a variety of music formats including MP3, AAC and WMA files and the music player can run for 13 hours through its headset or 5 hours with the speaker . Regular mobile phone features, including email support, web browsing, stereo Bluetooth, USB connectivity, plus the usual messaging facilties.

The Serenata is the second phone resulting from the collaboration between Bang & Olufsen and Samsung, following the Serene, launched in late 2005. Its design is based on stones washed ashore, according to B&O designer David Lewis.

The Serenata will be released in November, with the price to be confirmed. But it won't be cheap.

Review


The mobile phone or mobile, also called a wireless, cellular phone, cell phone (AKA: cellphone), cell or hand phone (HP),is a long-range, portable electronic device used for mobile communication that uses a network of specialized base stations known as cell sites. In addition to the standard voice function of a telephone, current mobile phones may support many additional services, and accessories, such as SMS for text messaging, email, packet switching for access to the Internet, and MMS for sending and receiving photos and video. Most current mobile phones connect to a cellular network of base stations (cell sites), which is in turn interconnected to the public switched telephone network (PSTN) (the exception is satellite phones)
