November 16th, 2010Samsung Zeel Review

Talk of innovative mobile handsets and get Samsung Zeel for an answer. This handset show the way for creative technology to enter the mobile industry keeping in mind the looks as well as convenience of the users.

Zeel’s USP lies in the fact that it uses the E-Ink technology which changes the keypad according to the user’s requirement. For example the keypad can either be used as QWERTY or the regular alphanumeric keyboard as and when the user wishes to change it. It can open vertically as a flip phone when the traditional numeric keypad is to be used. This handset is based on a dual hinge design and offers support for email through MS exchange, making it ideal as a business phone.

Other than this unique feature, no other feature is extraordinary. For example, the camera is only 2 MP one which doesn’t even place Zeel into competition with phones like Nokia E71 or Karbonn K777.Even the sound quality is weak and not very clear. Other features like Bluetooth, media centre and microSD card slot are provided. Applications such as VZ navigator and in built skype help the cause of this handset but not as much as it E-Ink technology.

The 2.6 inch QVGA screen is large enough for a flip phone and the resolution count is acceptable. It seems like a handset that has its positives as well as negatives. One huge positive takes away the hard work that could have been used on the camera as well as the music player. Not a bad phone to put your money on.

November 16th, 2010Fly E171 Review

Fly mobile is a less popular brand of mobile handsets in the mobile industry as compared to Samsung, Sony Ericsson, and Nokia etc. But E171 proves that it is time we gave Fly the due credit and well deserved appreciation. This handset has all the features that are, if not better, then atleast comparable to all the bigger brand names.

This dual sim handset has a TFT-LCD full touchscreen with a resolution count of240x400 pixels. The touch is decent and even the resolution count is good enough. But when compared to Samsung Corby, Fly E171 definitely falls a little short of the pixel count .It is a really light weight phone of 95g contrary to what the touch and solid body suggests.

This is one gem of a mobile phone when connectivity comes into the picture. You name it and you’ve got all possible kind of connectivity options; like Wi-Fi, GPRS,    and WAP browser. Bluetooth and FM radio are the other two requisites fulfilled by the handset. The music player quality is one issue that has always concerned the owners of Fly products.E171 has definitely tried to work hard upon in this point but still hasn’t been a good as that of Nokia 5800 xpress music or Sony Ericsson W980.

Fly E171 is also equipped with a 3.2 MP camera with a video recording feature but it lacks flash. The battery is a 1000mAh but only gives 3 hrs of talk time which is another shortcoming of this handset.E171 is a good handset but not something you won’t get for the same price in a brand of your choice.
