 Alcatel OneTouch 311 is announced in 2001
Design
Alcatel's OneTouch 311 has a standard design for this class handsets, measuring 44 x 103 x 24 mm and 99 grams. Despite the weight it has a good feel in the hand, and the good shaped plastic body and styled highlights give it an attractive and nice look.The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 96 x 65 pixel is not very high but is normal for small phone like this.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker.
Lacking LEDs of any kind, however, the display - combined with vibration and audible alerts - is the OneTouch 311's only way of notifying users of new messages and missed calls. This is common for all Alcatel handsets, requiring users to inconveniently have to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting rather than just glance at it.
Ergonomics
The OneTouch 311 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 good placed keys, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.
Features
Dual band 900/1800 MHz connectivity isn't all the Alcatel OneTouch 311 has to offer: there's also support for GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as WAP , Java MIDP 2.0, 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..
Performance
Audio quality on the OneTouch 311 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 700 mAh NI-MH battery is rated for 4 hours talk time or 180 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 105 minutes.
Availability
The Alcatel OneTouch 311 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Alcatel OneTouch 311 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. |
