Sony Ericsson G700i Review - Editor's Review
10 Jun 2008
The Sony Ericsson G700 is a stylish 3G Smartphone which design resembles the candybar. The handset’s classy bar-styled casing comes in a unique, rich and silky bronze colour. It is a very convenient handheld mobile phone that measures 13mm x 106 x 49mm. Even as it is packed with full features, the Sony Ericsson G700 is a lightweight at only 99 grams inclusive of the battery. A stylus or the touch of a finger activates the mobile phone’s screen. The Sony Ericsson G700 was designed for practicality, and is amalgamated with a creative blueprint. The G700 is said to be similar with the Sony Ericsson G900i in terms of features and 3G capabilities.
The Sony Ericsson G700’s front area is dominated by its 60.95-millimeter TFT touchscreen that displays a gamut of 262,000 colours. The handset’s screen resolution is at 240 x 320 pixels. Through the mobile phone’s touch screen navigation controls, the Sony Ericsson G700 user can access the menu and its other controls, and input text messages, which offers the predictive input system. As with most modern mobile phones, the Sony Ericsson G700 supports SMS, MMS, instant messaging and mobile email. It has pre-installed polyphonic ringtones, and supports MP3 and AAC formatted ringtones, which users may opt to download.
The Sony Ericsson G700 runs in a Symbian operating system – a popular system through which several Smartphones operate. Sony Ericsson integrated into the G700 the feature that allows it to recognize handwriting, read and edit documents.
The mobile phone’s 3G technology allows users to access the World Wide Web through its broadband service. Data transfers are rated at high speed, at up to more than 384 Kbs. The Sony Ericsson G700’s 3G network makes Internet browsing, video streaming and email services a breeze. The unit also allows phone-to-device connections through the mobile phone’s Bluetooth capability or USB cable.
The Sony Ericsson G700 is a triband mobile phone that works on GSM networks 900, 1800 and 1900. It supports UMTS 2100, which makes roaming thoughout Europe and in most parts of the US easy. However, as network coverage is highly dependent on network providers, the reach may often vary.
As for Internet browsing, the Sony Ericsson G700 makes use of its built-in Opera Web browser. It also supports WAP 2.0 XHTML and WAP 1.2.1. Its internal memory is capped at 160 Megabytes, but may be expanded through the Micro M2 memory card. Its battery allows approximately 12 hours talk time on GSM, or around 5 hours on UMTS. The standby time is roughly 380 hours, and the video call reaches a maximum of 2.5 hours on UMTS.
Photo enthusiasts will appreciate the Sony Ericsson G700 with its 3.2-Megapixel digicam and video camera. The camera works with a 3x digital zoom, coupled with a photo light feature that brightens up pictures taken in darker environments. The digital camera also has a photo fix feature, which almost perfectly ensures the best quality of photos through allowing light balance and contrast adjustments in shots.
Additionally, the Sony Ericsson G700’s camera has an image stabiliser that gets rid of hand movements that otherwise affect a photo or video’s overall outputs. There is also a red-eye reduction system that is most useful when shots are taken with the camera flash.
The Sony Ericsson G700 also has a built-in FM radio that allows users to listen to their favourite music and news stations over the radio, and participate in stations’ chat shows. Similarly, users who opt to listen to their collection of favourite tracks may use the media player that supports both video and music.
There is a PlayNow feature in the Sony Ericsson G700 that makes music downloading quick and easy with only three clicks. Furthermore, the Sony Ericsson G700 has a Mega Bass for bass frequency and a TrackID that recognizes the track being played, and identifies the song title, album title and the artist name.
The Sony Ericsson G700 has the standard features of a mobile phone, including an organizer (to put all tasks in place), a phone book, an alarm clock, a calculator, a calendar, a timer and stopwatch. On-the-go users of the Sony Ericsson G700 will find the flight mode feature of the mobile phone quite useful. Speakerphones also prove to be very useful for calls received or made in noisier surroundings.
