 Ericsson A2618s is announced in 2000
Design
Ericsson's A2618s - one of few models from Ericsson featuring a more traditional candy bar design, the Ericsson A2618s is heavy and little big handset at 131 x 51 x 25 mm and 140 grams. 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 low class phone.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker.There is nice LEDs which notify users of new messages, active network and missed calls. This is not common for all Ericsson handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The A2618s 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 Ericsson handsets.The plastic keypad has good placed keys, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.Its keypad is as pleasing in use as its chassis is on the eyes: tactile feedback is excellent and all buttons are placed in a logical manner - quite a feat, considering A2618s's knack for quirky keypads.And last,but not least, a simple two-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
Dual band 900/1800 MHz connectivity isn't all the Ericsson A2618s has to offer: there's also support for SMS, .and spacious phone book..
Performance
Audio quality on the A2618s was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 500 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 4 hours talk time or 80 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 75 minutes.
Availability
The Ericsson A2618s is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Ericsson A2618s is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Ericsson design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
