Nokia E72: Falsifies the Charming

















Although E71 is not the first QWERTY phone that was created, you could say that record sales and popularity of mobile phones could be the top among other QWERTY phone. A success that I think Nokia had not been expected. Because time Nokia launched E61 and E61, its sales did not like this.

There are many factors supporting the success of E71, including another outbreak QWERTY design model. But in this case I prefer to conclude that the internal factor is that most big plays. In this case the E71 design is really cool incredible. In this cell phone, the Nokia design team has successfully created a smart phone with full keyboard that usually appear plump and stiff to be slim, stylish and very heavy element of fashion.

So, if the E71 is so successful, what else will be made by Nokia for E72 which is the successor of this cell phone. As a successor to a successful mobile phone, E72 is a lot of scrutiny. Many doubted whether the E72 will be as popular as E71. Now, having once tried it briefly, I now have the opportunity to use E72 for a far longer as part of this review.

Design

Actually the basic concept of the design still like E71 E72. In this case Nokia as a principle to not change the form of an already well liked. But that does not mean that the exact same design, or contrived five distinguishing let not exactly mimic. The same was just a concept, if the design is still different.

For dimensions, E72 are 114 x 59.5 x 10.1 with a weight of 128 grams have very little difference with the E71 the dimensions 114 x 57 x 10 mm with a weight of 127 grams. Yes a little more big and just 1 gram more weight. There was almost no complaint when the user holds it E71.

In material selection, seems to cut down on usage of the Nokia E72 metal. Strong metal impression only felt in the battery lid is still wearing stainless steel with smooth finishing texture grafir. Wrap the metal was also felt in the chrome trim that surrounds the body and the cross section to be occupied by the navigation key, softkey and lift buttons / close calls.

The facade was still filled to the completeness standard QWERTY phone. His own keyboard made from a comfortable soft rubber push. His keyboard layout more like the E63 than the E71. Complete with access to a flashlight that occupy the space key. Nokia on the E72 there is innovation in the five-way navigation button as well equipped to navigate with optical trackpad finger sweep.

E72 is also equipped with a 3.5 mm audio jack, unlike his predecessor who wear size 2.5 mm. Election of a more universal jack size this will make users more comfortable and easy in choosing their own headset if the headset is not satisfied by the same innate. Another improvement is that there are speakers with bigger holes. There is no longer the speaker holes on the top, but behind the camera lens next to the lis.

Do not worry because it sounds so mendem existing holes in the rear speakers. The hole would not ketutup kok. Because lis camera very prominent, so there is quite cavity between the speaker holes with any place diletakannya this cell phone.

Features

In general, features in the E72 is almost identical to the E71. Good productivity features, entertainment and connectivity, all nearly equal. Just be sure there are some improvements, let me add okay. If it's just not fun aja enhanced design. From the operating system is still the same which Symbian S60 third edition, just now come up with the latest version of which more and more comfortable to wear.

If you want to see the difference, which could be directly visible is the camera which is now increased to 5 Mpix. Not too big really, but rather there is an increase. If the software, E72 has a more solid solution map of Nokia Maps 3.0 GPS makes it more comfortable to use. In addition ditambahin digital compass also.

On the applications side there were also improvements in the Office application that is now better. Continues, there is also a new application that is Nokia Instant Messaging. This application is really cool for a chat and hooked already have an account Ovi.

Behind all the features and applications, there are significant changes that make the E72 is able to work more quickly, that its new processor speknya be 600 MHz upgraded. These changes make E72 the E71 look better in a matter of data processing speed as well as battery endurance.

Performance

From the experience of use, I feel more comfortable if E72 is used instead of E71. This experience not only of design changes, but also from the spec features. From its design, comfort typing with the QWERTY keyboard on E72 more pronounced. But definitely curious mobilers same performance optical trackpad yes.

This optical trackpad may be a new feature that can make mobile phone users replace E71 to E72. If my experience is that optical trackpad is indeed so attractive alternative navigation when we maneuver in the menu-the menu. Although we can still squeeze the navigation buttons, but the experience gently rubbed pretty fun. Moreover, the sensor is also very responsive.

But in a more frequent usage such as browsing, I think I prefer to use regular five-way keypad. With the trackpad is much smaller than a laptop touchpad, do not expect to use while browsing can be as comfortable as on my laptop. At least we do not have rubbed more frequently to direct the cursor on web pages. For this purpose, it is most comfortable wearing regular navigation button. But this is my own experience, may mobilers have different opinions about this.

If the feature spec, the processor could be the most important thing possible. With a 600 MHz processor, if the displacement is fixed and really menus, loading applications and the like can be done more quickly. I try to compare with the E71 when browsing via WiFi using the same hotspot. It's really the difference is fixed, the speed of browsing so very different. The role of this new processor is not just the speed of the process, but also influence the endurance of the batteries is more efficient than E72 E71.

Camera performance was definitely increased with the addition of this resolution are quite significant. But in addition, E72 also can autofocus camera that produces sharp images could be easier.

Opinion

As an E71 user, I have a personal opinion about the E72 that I think could also represent other users. At first glance, indeed E72 mobile phone E71 user-awaited dream. Curiosity will be the performance of E72 because E71 is certainly able to meet expectations as a reliable smart phone. So if the E71 is nice, sure E72 would be great. And from the experience of this review, I really felt a significant difference in terms of performance, although the design is still inclined to choose the E71. This user perceived differences that must diperhatkan vendor when making a phone that successors of sukes. And Nokia has fulfilled all of that. But even better, not necessarily going to make markets more successfully than E71 E72. But that certainly is going in a minute .... a lot of Chinese-made mobile phone that looks just like this.

Samsung S8000 Jet: Fast processor Great Multimedia















Samsung boost their production house to print the new multimedia mobile phone ready to hit the market. After the success of several previous products, such as Omnia and Innov8, Samsung has released the S8000 Jet. Mobile multimedia class is expected to maintain the momentum of Samsung in global markets to continue to explode. Hmmm ... I do not lebay talk like this? Little hell, but his name is also welcome, there should be 'spice' little dong.

Well, but in fact did so, Samsung is now being diligent in issuing a multimedia mobile phone as it is considered a successful lift their sales figures. Okay, I'm not so concerned with numbers or business strategy, whatever it is with everything. I just really care about mobile phones, good or not nih. Jet S8000 planned akam become one of the mainstays of this year Samsung had to prove herself in the rubric Overview HP.

Design

Embrace the concept of full touchscreen, minimalist look Jet display device meets the front. Although looking kalen, Jet feels flirty little blessing glossy color effect on the body surface. What is interesting, at the battery cover there is a holographic effect with stripes motif. Seen to be so sleek, attractive.

Jet has a fairly obvious navigation buttons below the screen. Pentagon shape but if To look again, the navigation buttons are created as if it resembles a cube shape. Later mobilers'll know what the intent of this form of navigation buttons. In addition to navigation buttons are also another key suspect, namely the camera button on the right. Usually do not like the camera button is made long and storied form (one side is lower than the other side). What's this?

Features

This minimalist-looking mobile phone has all the multimedia features of the upper class. We see from the display, using 16 million color AMOLED technology with high resolution 480 x 800 pixels, Jet promises clear view that he remains good despite facing sun. Jet screen itself uses resistive touchscreen technology to serve user's touch.

Behind this screen, TouchWiz UI Jet presents the latest v2.0. Some new things in v2.0 TouchWiz UI is a virtual desktop feature that allows us to have three standby page (home) at once. To access the page mobilers stay third finger dragged to the right or left. Each page can we set the desktop is displayed, eg ditambahin widgets or wallpaper, different for each page.

From our screen to the camera. 5 megapixel camera equipped jet is powerful enough. At the very least be seen from the features already taken this camera really complete, even for video recording it can record images with the quality D1 (720 x 480 pixel resolution). Wis., tuh cool to make personal films .. ahem, ahem.

Carrying a lot of features, Jet requires huge memory space plus processor device reliability. That's why Samsung provides 2 GB of internal memory is its capacity for Jet, and could still plus MicroSD memory card. While for the processor, Jet had a Qualcomm MSM6246 clock speed to 800Mhz. The presence of these processors will make the process work even faster mobile phone. Perhaps because it also get a nickname Jet S8000, like flying a jet so that cepet.

Performance

This cool mobile phone, during my test addicted to touching the screen. TouchWiz UI version 2.0 users can make real comfortable and that its effects are pretty, so cool. There's another new in Jet's user interface, namely the 3D UI Media Gate. This is the secret I'd like to start from early in the design discussion. Yep, the cube-shaped navigation button apparently refers to the shape of this Gate Media 3D UI.

Now, to access this UI we must press the button so long that one with the camera button. I sebutin button on the discussion of multilevel shape design. Once signed, we will present a 3D cube with each side showing six multimedia menu; albums (photos), music player, video player, FM radio, games and internet. The most fun, we can move this box with your fingers as they pleased, in whichever direction, played-puter can also not clear. Cool.

AMOLED screen is stunning, smooth and crisp color display in the eye. But I do not agree with the claim that Samsung is the screen says tetep respite in the sun. When I test, the display is not much different from most mobile phones when dealing with sunshine. It is not a severe condition, we can still see the little picture, but the color fades and looks dark.

I use Samsung's Addiction Jet also did not escape the role of the processor. This processor proved capable of running various applications and features available on mobile phone without making us wait. Some applications are usually longer be opened, such as video players (especially fitting to playing videos), Internet browser, camera, GPS and 3D effects, Jet can run quickly, without any symptoms nge-hang or lag.

Opinion

Samsung Jet impressed me, this phone was so pleasant and entertaining. Really fit with the concept of multimedia mobile phones diusungnya. More value at the same time the main force jet on its features are complete, the presence of devices such as 800 Mhz processor, 3D AMOLED display and UI, adding the ability Jet exclaimed.

Samsung B3310: Also Got a QWERTY keypad Standing

















People are starting to like mobile devices equipped with a keyboard, not with numeric keypad. Is it possible that because of the tendency of recent mobile phone nowadays prefer to use qwerty keypad? Just look at Nokia, which launched low-cost version of the E71, the E63. Hell if in Indonesia itself, the trend was mobile phone qwerty already started mushrooming. Not because of hard-selling E63. China mobile phone manufacturers but latahan is now racing to create a design like the BlackBerry phones equipped with qwerty. This happened after NexianBerry sell in the market.

Other brands did not want to miss the opportunity to make mobile phone keyboard. There is a follow-up Nexian, making devices such as BlackBerry, some are trying to cheat the vendor design output Swedish mobile phone design, the E63. That if in Indonesia. Outside, the mobile market seems also were interested in mobile qwerty. Samsung did not want to miss with this momentum. This Korean company was creating a Samsung B3310.

B3310 adopt a sliding form factor. Flip the bottom of the task to save the keyboard, to make it look more simple. Usually only high end mobile phones that adopt these designs, with a keyboard hidden in a slide. And usually also, the interface to use a full screen touchscreen. So no need tuh adding more buttons on the front.

Well, because this one Samsung devices do not use the touch screen, would not want to B3310 should be equipped with a number of buttons on the front. Not only softkey, navigation, and the execution is required, but also the keypad. If not, ribet aja business, every time I want to reply to SMS or search for names in the phone book, users must open the first slide.

But there is a little awkward with the placement of this keypad Samsung B3310. Numeric keypad placed lined up as though standing on the left side of the screen. Looking at these designs, so remember to Siemens SX1, who had lined up on the keypad left and right side of the screen. In the open position of the keyboard, numeric keypad is not look odd. Even more to support qwerty existing at the bottom. The strangeness of a keyboard will be felt when the slide is closed. This numeric keypad really weird abis. If you want to typing SMS is a bit long, would be very good if somewhat troublesome mobilers slide slightly open.

It was love my use of the keypad if not accompanied by maximizing features. If just for a SMS doang's, like, do not need to till fitted with qwerty. Typically, mobile phone qwerty was indeed intended as a messaging device which is generally connected with the internet. Nor is this capability of the Samsung B3310. To keep the user eksisaan, this Samsung mobile phone equipped with a shortcut to a number of social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace, and Flickr.

Liat aja of tiny bumps on the button, with the spacing between the keys really mepet. In addition, the softkey button is round, look sunken into the body is.
