Alcatel - OT-S850Alcatel OneTouch-S850 is announced in 2005
Design
Alcatel's OneTouch-S850 is a typical clamshell design. Measures 42 x 87 x 19 mm in size and weighing 108 grams, it is not light but feels very slender despite its size.The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 128 x 160 pixel ideal for small and smart phone.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker, while on the other side we find a dedicated camera button.There is nice LEDs which notify users of new messages, active network and missed calls. This is not common for all Alcatel handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The OneTouch-S850 is not comfortable for hold in ones hand because it is too wide.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Alcatel handsets.The plastic keypad has very limited key travel and jiggles independently of the phone, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.And last,but not least, a five-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
Dual band 900/1800 MHz connectivity isn't all the Alcatel OneTouch-S850 has to offer: there's also support for GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as Java MIDP 1.0, 64-channels polyphony, all of which laptop and handheld users will be pleased to learn is a breeze to utilize either by means of GPRS support is the fastest way to download files with your mobile, and spacious phone book.
As previously mentioned, the OneTouch-S850 is also equipped with a 0.1 megapixel camera support for picture-taking and when it comes to storage the OneTouch-S850 offers 3 MB which is dynamically shared between images and J2ME applications.
Performance
Audio quality on the OneTouch-S850 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 500 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 3 hours talk time or 60 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 75 minutes.
Availability
The Alcatel OneTouch-S850 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Alcatel OneTouch-S850 is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Alcatel design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
