Telecom 3

The Samsung U900 was labelled as “Samsung’s flagship phone of 2008″ which certainly appeals to many people who purchase from Telecom 3. The U900 Soul’s case has been manufactured out of metal which gives the phone a very nice quality feel to it, the form factor of this phone is a slide which moves smoothly to reveal the keypads and is super slim with the thickness of 12.9mm. What makes this little handset pretty special is the lovely touch sensitive navigation (Samsung marketing name for this would be “Magical Touch Interface” which is a ever changing icon system for users to navigate.

The LCD of the phone contains 16 million colours for more contrasting graphics/inferface, 3G connection with speeds capable of 7.2 Mbps, camera is a top-end 5 megapixel, music player which can handle a wide variety of formats (mp3, wma etc.), FM radio and Bang & Olufsen power amplifier for high-fidelity audio, internal memory of 100mb, optional microSD expansion.

A very solid mobile phone for any user. Contact our Telecom 3 sales team for more enquiries on this gorgious product.

Before hosting on Telecom 3 our very own Wordpress. First free host I used was Blogspot and it was then, I had blogged for the very first time. I’ve decided to close it down as it has limited functionalities which is expected due to it being a free hosting. Our Wordpress blog is here to stay, but we at Telecom 3 would like to say a warm farewell to our Blogspot.

Silly question yeah?

Well, the base of operation within a mobile phone is simply for the functionality of sending and recieving phone calls, but of course, this is not how our choice of mobile brand and model is influenced nowadays. I myself have a Nokia 3120 on Pay as you go. It does the basic things that I need it for, which are: recieving/emergency calls (not a heavy chatter), the occasioanl text message and finally, MP3 player to and from work. My very first phone was a 3210 which in terms of what I used it for, didn’t have a music player.

I am looking to invest on a new phone as many of you are, but what do we base our choice on? Seeing as I’m in a mobile phone enviroment here in Telecom 3, features are coarsing through my brain. Apart from the many inclusive minutes/texts, basic camera, text messaging capabilities, here’s what I’ve come up with.

Entertainment: As a secondary function similar to the Nintendo DS/MP3 player and a portable DVD player rolled into one, a multimedia portable machine…everything that you could ever want to keep you entertained. Specifications to consider; what formats your videos/music will play (MP3 music, DivX/MPEG-4/WMV video bwing the most common), sound features (MegaBass, TrackID Recognition), games (downloadable), screen size, resolution of the screen, size memory (is it expandable?) and connectivity which is important for your data transfer.

Camera: Nothing is better than capturing the moment on camera. Although camera functionality is inherited in all mobile phones today, some are specialised in this aspect. The number of megapixels is only one characteristic relating to the quality of a camera, or the actual quality of a photo it is capable of producing and the resolution it will be captured at. The next part would be the quality of lens, focus functionality, type of flash and camera modes. Other things to be aware of is the memory (expandable?) and connectivity which will be methods on data transferring and possibly 3G coverage for internet access to the social networks for direct image transfer to your blog.

Business: Your goal here is to be reachable wherever and whenever. Being able to have access to information  with connectivity via 3G for internet access to your e-mail and be able to read documents and spreadsheets thanks to the in-built office applications available to your mobile phone. Need a GPS device? Why not have one included in your phone.

As simplistic a person I am, my choice when I eventually get round to it will be mainly for camera functionality to capture things that I find facinating, nights out and holidays. What do you want the most our of your mobile?
