Sidekick II By T-mobile – Cellular Phone Reviewed

Saturday, October 11th, 2008

The T-Mobile Sidekick 2 is one of the most popular phone to buy, especially when it is sold as one of the many GSM Unlocked Cell Phones on the market. It not only has a slimmer screen but also a digital built in camera like most other phones, but what makes it unique are its features and capabilities. This second version of the T-Mobile Sidekick is more of a refinement than a revamp of its predecessor. This bulky but eye-pleasing smart phone is an e-mailer’s and messenger’s dream, and users of the older model will welcome the Sidekick II’s thinner form factor and the addition of a speakerphone. But the new device is still without some higher-end features, and it won’t access corporate e-mail. Mobile professionals will be better off with a more business-minded smart phone, such as the Nokia 6600. At $299, the Sidekick is fairly priced, but you’ll also need to purchase T-Mobile’s Sidekick data plan ($29.99 per month) to use the e-mail, messaging, and Internet browser functions.

The T-Mobile Sidekick II adds some fashion sense with the removable rubber “bumpers” that run along the top and bottom edges of the phone. To freshen the look, bumpers are available in a variety of colors to match your mood. But more than just adding to the design, the bumpers hold an external power button so that you no longer have to open the screen, volume controls so that you don’t have to dig into a menu to adjust the sound, and two ergonomic multifunction buttons. When in photography mode, the phone’s right multifunction key is a camera shutter–an especially nice touch. The Sidekick even feels like a real camera when you hold it to take a picture, and the rear-facing lens sits well out of the way of your fingers.
The Sidekick II Unlocked Cell Phones by T-Mobile has an integrated VGA camera, which doubles the resolution of the older, add-on version. With three resolutions (160×120, 320×240, and 640×480) and a built-in flash, the new addition takes above-average shots for a camera phone, although images still aren’t of printable quality. The flash does a fair job if you’re within a foot or so of your subject, but it won’t do you much good beyond that range. Options for the camera are limited to a Night mode and a mirror for self-portraits. The Sidekick II stores up to 36 images at the highest quality, and all pictures can be sent to your buddies via e-mail or attached as thumbnails to contacts for photo caller ID.

The good thing about this phone is that, it has a Built-in VGA camera with flash; world phone; speakerphone; great keyboard; convenient e-mail and IM functionality; relatively speedy Web browsing; 32MB RAM. The specifications include: Carrier: T-Mobile; Band / mode: GSM 900/1800/1900 (Tri-Band); Talk time: Up to 270 min;

The Sidekick II allows you to send and receive virtual contact cards (vCards).vCards are a great way to easily save and share contact information with friends and colleagues. Lastly, if you need to find the keyhole after a night on the town, the Sidekick II has a mini LED flashlight.

The Sidekick II has fun in its soul. Snap photos and share them with your friends via messaging or email, or via your online Intellisync gallery. The camera features a night mode for getting good shots in low-light situations.

One game, Rock and Rocket, ships with the Sidekick II, and more are available via the t-zones service.

Thus T-Mobile’s Sidekick 2 is a new coup de grace to the market and users subsequently with its outstanding features and elaborate design. And when purchased as part of the many T-Mobile Unlocked Cell Phones available it can be used on any GSM network, even those that are not T-Mobile.

Review On The Samsung SGH F700 For The Verizon Service

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008

Samsung first unveiled the SGH F700 earlier this year at 3GSM, there was no mistaking that it took its design cues from Apple’s iPhone. The F700 can also be purchase at places like Cell2Get in there Unlocked Cell Phones section, this means you can use it on any GSM network, since all Unlocked Cell Phones can be used this way. Many other manufacturers, including HTC and LG, have produced handsets that share many of the iPhone’s design features, but the F700 remains the closest to it. It has large wide-screen for navigation and just a single key, similar to the iPhone, but it also has side-sliding full QWERTY keyboard for messaging. It lacks WiFi or large hard drive, but has 3-megapixel camera, HSDPA and microSD slot. It runs on Flash User Interface.

The F700 looks like the iPhone, and that’s that. No, it’s not identical, it is less wide, thicker and dark blue in color, but you wouldn’t be mad if you saw a friend put it on a table and remarked, “Oh, is that your new iPhone?”

The F700 is a big leap for Samsung, which has generally stayed away from touchscreen phones, instead making masses of sliders, which are immensely popular around the world. But Samsung also has a reputation for pushing technological boundaries, even if it doesn’t come up with the idea first.

Verizon Cell Phones also has this phone, known as the Samsung Glyde SCH-U940.

Features:

The F700’s user interface is closer to the LG Viewty’s than the iPhone’s. Certain processes, such as hanging up, are less straightforward than they should be. There are no fancy built-in sensors, so the screen doesn’t automatically change to landscape mode when you tip it over, or realise when your face is near it, or adjust the screen brightness.

It’s probably because it looks so much like the iPhone that we expected an experience as good, which of course it isn’t. The browser doesn’t render pages very well, the music player is relatively basic and the screen just isn’t as large or as sharp as the iPhone’s. But before you count it out of the fight, the F700 does have some redeeming qualities.

HSDPA (3.5G) means you can download data much faster than on the iPhone’s EDGE connection. Unlike the iPhone, you can take pictures and send them to friends via MMS, you can use the camera to shoot videos and you can make 3G video calls using the VGA camera on the front.

As users acknowledge the growing importance that user experience takes on the full touch LCD device as the LCD dominates physically on the device, Samsung has employed analogue cross concept everywhere (across all applications) and has named the UI(User Interface) “Croix” which stands for cross in French. It has an enthusiastic reflection on the usability in terms of input methods, basic navigation, content access methods and task completion scenarios. Pleasure, agility and performance were values when creating the UI. In short, Samsung SGH F700 is the ideal phone for professional as well as non-professional purposes.

Unlocking Your Used Cell Phone

Monday, October 6th, 2008

What ever your motives are for choosing to unlock your used blackberry you will need to make sure that you unlock it correctly; many a used cell phone has been permanently disabled by being unlocked incorrectly. There are several ways to get your used blackberry or used palm treo unlocked.

Instead of unlocking a refurbished blackberry purchased directly from your wireless provider you might want to consider buying a phone that is already unlocked. Unlocked phones can be found in a variety of places. The most common place to find an unlocked phone is from a third party vendor (not a cellular service provider). Search various mobile phone vendors, and even online retailers, to find the best selection of already unlocked phones.

If you already own a phone and would prefer to unlock it in lieu of buying a new unlocked model, you do have several options.

1. Talk To Your Carrier
If you’ve had your used cell phone for more than a few months you may be able to get your carrier’s customer service department to provide to you the unlocking code. It may take some time on the phone, but the benefits to having your phone unlocked far outweigh the time spent on the phone with customer service.

2. Buy The Unlock Code
Several websites, eBay included, sell the unlocking software and instructions needed to unlock devices, including the used treo you might have in mind. When buying from an online source you have to be carefule and choose your vendor wisely; you may not necessarily get the correct software and codes for unlocking your phone successfully.

3. Third Party
There are multiple vendors that offer unlocking services for the used blackberry and used palm treo. Some might have locations in your area where you can take the phone and wait while the phone is unlocked. Unfortunately, you may live in an area where such services are not readily available. In that case, you will have to mail your phone to the service provider. The services are often extremely affordable and do come with a guarantee that your phone will be fully tested before being returned to you.
