Review Samsung I600


After producing the series of SGH-i300 that uses OS Windows Mobile for the domestic market, currently was present the series of SGH-i600, that also used OS that was same. However this new series, has been supplied new technology that was more complete and better. Including the network 3G and HSDPA. By vendor SGH-i600 was given by the nickname black Jack. With provisions of high multimedia of the application capacity, SGH-i600 entered the group smart messaging device.

DESIGN, SGH -i600 was present with the concept qwerty pad, that was clear was allocated for the ease of text typing, the email et cetera. Despite, the switch qwerty pad was compiled rather close, so as to need the adaptation of some time before smooth used. And the attendance qwerty pad also brought the consequences of the measurement body the wide cellular phone.

But don’t worry, body that was wide that did not bring the problem when being used. We continued to be able to operate the cellular phone with one hand. Despite, stayed more comfortable when operating the switch with two hands. Possibly not rather comfortable when being stuck on ears, when did voice call, as well as not more just right also if you tried to keep him in the pocket of trousers.

THIN, i600 continued to bring the family’s Ultra Edition accent, that was famous with thin. The smart cellular phone impression that usually sticky with body that was thick and big, was not encountered in this cellular phone, that had body tight. Indeed appear at first glance resembled E61 Nokia or Blackberry 8707v. However the black color dominant as well as the design body that was typical, as well as the weight that was minor for the measurement smartphone (105 gram), became the distinguishing feature with two cellular phones. SGH-i600 had the dimension 113 x 59 x 11,8 mm and heavy 105 gram.

SCREEN, Once more that was appropriate lined supervised was his screen that was wide. Measuring 46 x 36 mm, could accommodate five lines the text, but his one line could be so long. His screen only used the TFT kind 65 thousand colors, but Samsung reliability in the matter of technology screen, did not need to be made again hesitate. Like available in i600, his screen was so sharp and clear.

OFFICE, Begun with the use of the Windows Mobile operation system the series 5,0 to smartphone. Designing the typical Windows menu, that could be put forward with list or grid, really facilitated for the menu exploration.

Now the matter of the office application. This cellular phone had what was named picsel viewer. This application was useful to open and read various file with the format word, excel, power point and PDF. So, we remained kept files this in the cellular phone memory, then was used to carry out the presentation. Unfortunately, picsel viewer did not enable did editing or made the document new. Only was limited was opened and read then.

NAVIGATION, The menu was facilitated with two choices of the switch. Through navigation key four available directions below screen, or through wheel button available on the side body the cellular phone. Wheel button this, when being pressed, functioned also as the switch select. If only was touch screen, definitely more again fascinating.

PUSH EMAIL and INTERNET, Support to mobile office other was facilities push the email, that enabled us got alert the email that entered, like to Blackberry. And that was clear, owing to the attendance of the network 3G and HSDPA, surfing the internet became more comfortable, despite coverage available still was limited. Or, if by chance was in the hotspot area, also could carry out the connection with Wi-Fi, that in the test, moderate satisfactory.

MUSIC, After Office application, i600 also was supplied with the standard of other multimedia. Mentioned for example, music player that could play various formats file (including WMA, MP3, AAC+, OGG, ASF).

CAMERA, The camera is 1.3 Mpix, could be used to photograph and record a video. But the matter of the quality of the voice his music just so-so, and also was not equipped equalizer to maximize the quality of the voice. Was not the matter, this cellular phone indeed more was allocated for mobile office, compared with mobile entertainment.

MEMORY, SGH -i600 had the CREAM capacity 128 MB and RAM 64 of MB. Memory was still being increased with the Micro SD. The capacity Micro SD card support that the ray was used through to 1 GB.

RSS READER, This application was beneficial enough for them who must know the development of the news or warmest rumors. With RSS (rich site summery) Reader, in a manner continued us could get the summary or the headlines from various sites of the news and always in-up date automatically. As the note, the site that could in-list also had the RSS version.

PICSEL VIEWER, This application indeed really helped to check the document (word, excel, power point, PDF), when we were being apart from the office. The colleague in the office could send file the document through the email, and afterward was opened in the cellular phone.

BATTERY, Samsung i600 was supplied with the battery power of 1200 mAh with the battery type lithium the ion. Energy provisions as big as that, this series could be used to speak stopped till 6.5 hours, and alert time till 305 hours.

RESULT, the achievement i600 could be relied on. Especially for mobile office. Application worked perfect, without many hindrances. Despite, we could not edit file the available document. So also when being used for the video call, took place just very smooth. The quality of the voice during voice call also good. But the quality of the voice music, just so-so. Might also chose the cellular phone of one this as supporting equipment of the work in a mobile manner.

Review Techno TD201

Tertarik dengan semakin gencarnya iklan ponsel buatan Cina dual system (GSM-CDMA) salah satunya yaitu Techno dengan tipe TD-201. Sebetulnya ada 2 merk lain yang memiliki fitur sama, yaitu Vitell dan Kanselir.
Review Singkat
Setelah sekitar 1 bulan lamanya menggunakan ponsel yang hampir mirip dengan Nokia N73 ini, secara garis besar saya tidak menemukan masalah yang berarti. Ponsel ini relatif mudah dan nyaman untuk digunakan, baik untuk menelepon maupun untuk SMS. Komunikasi via GSM ataupun CDMA juga tidak ada masalah karena setiap panggilan ataupun SMS dibedakan menggunakan icon tertentu yang cukup jelas. Demikian juga dengan tombol pada keypadnya. Tombol dengan huruf G besar untuk melakukan panggilan via GSM dan tombol dengan huruf C besar untuk melakukan panggilan via CDMA.

Berikut ini adalah beberapa kelebihan dari ponsel Techno TD-201 ini:

* Layar Touch Screen (Stylus included), berguna untuk nulis SMS ataupun edit Contact-List secara cepat.
* Display cukup terang, walaupun dalam kondisi diluar ruangan.
* Fungsi Organizer cukup bagus, apalagi dengan bantuan Stylus entri datanya bisa lebih nyaman.
* Struktur menu utama jelas dan mudah digunakan.
* Struktur penempatan tombol-tombol fungsi pada keypad jelas.
* Ada fitur BlueTooth yang aktif secara bersamaan, baik untuk system GSM maupun system CDMA, jadi saya hanya perlu membawa 1 BlueTooth earphone saja untuk kartu Matrix sekaligus kartu Esia saya.
* Fitur multimedia lumayan cukup lengkap, ada built-in Camera ; Video Recorder ; MP3/MP4 player ; Video Player serta Voice Recorder.
* Suara yang dihasilkan speakernya saat memutar lagu MP3 cukup keras terdengar, speakernya sendiri terbagi 2, di bagian atas serta dibagian bawah ponsel. Stereo ? Entahlah.
* Ada slot untuk MicroSD yang support hingga 1 GB.
* Charger compatible dengan chargernya Samsung.
* Bisa charge batre lewat komputer, yaitu dengan menggunakan kabel USB bawaannya.
* … etc.

Sedangkan kekurangan dari ponsel Techno TD-201 ini adalah sebagai berikut:

* Operating system yang digunakan tidak jelas, jadi saya tidak dapat menambahkan aplikasi / game kedalam ponsel ini.
* Tidak ada Delivery Report untuk SMS.
* Jarak spasi antar baris saat menulis SMS terlalu lebar.
* Tidak dapat menambah / merubah Folder juga Sub-Folder, baik pada memori utama maupun pada memori eksternal. Jadi setiap folder telah memiliki nama tersendiri, misalnya Audio, Video, dlsb. Jeleknya lagi, isi tiap folder tersebut juga harus sesuai, misalnya file MP3 harus saya masukan kedalam folder Music, jika file MP3 tersebut saya masukan kedalam folder Video maka file tidak akan tampil. Tidak adanya Sub-Folder juga menyulitkan saya untuk meng-organisir file-file tertentu, bayangkan ratusan file MP3 yang terletak dalam single folder saja !
* Tidak ada fasilitas Cut-Copy-Paste.
* Tidak ada fungsi Playlist dan Equalizer pada multimedia playernya.
* Posisi Stylus saat tidak digunakan terbalik ! jadi posisinya di handset mengarah kebawah, sangat riskan untuk jatuh.
* Karet pelindung konektor untuk charger terlalu tebal, jadinya malah menghalangi saat ponsel hendak dicharge, solusinya saat di-charge mesti ditekan agak kuat.
* Desain pengunci casing belakang kurang bagus, mudah longgar jika casing sering dibuka tutup.
* Tidak ada buku manual / guide, hanya ada beberapa lembar kertas sebagai panduan singkat saja.
* Tidak ada CD / Driver penunjang.
* … etc.
