It’s a gaming mobile phone………..
Key Features:
- 2-inch TFT LCD (176 x 220 pixels) with 262K colors offers decent image quality even with its low pixel density.
- Two dedicated gaming keys and one key to access your game folder. It also ships with a wrist strap lanyard for gaming.
- Built in motion sensor. However, it is only usable in three games – Jockey, Bowling and Bass Fighting as it stands now. The ten pin bowling simulator is especially fun as you need to do the same motion you do while actual bowling. While it doesn’t allow you to see the screen and adjust your direction and stuff, it’s funny and pleasing and you will definitely end up wasting count-less hours on it.
- There are 61 games on the 512 MB memory card that comes with the handset and this range from lifestyle games such as Sims 2 to racing games such as NFS and puzzles. While these might not deliver the stunning graphics and content of the N-Gage 2.0 or the iPhone’s games, they are entertaining.
- Button placement is good and keypad has large keys for thumb gaming.
- 2 MP camera which offers passable picture quality.
Sound reproduction is surprisingly good for a mid-range Sony non-Walkman phone and the loudspeaker is clear and gives good volume output.
Cons:
- Low resolution screen at its price point.
- Battery life is very low and it dies out sooner than expected.
- Camera quality is bad. Bundles headphones are not typical Sony.
- Slightly expensive when you look at the feature: price ratio. This can be primarily attributed to its motion sensor and being made to cater for the gaming segment.
- Estimated Street Price: Rs. 7,500
