Ericsson T28s is announced in 1999
Design
Having gained fresh wind in its sails over the course of the past year or so, Ericsson has certainly made its mark on phone sale hit lists recently, the Ericsson T28s is a very slender and compact handset at 97 x 50 x 15 mm and 89 grams. The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 96 x 40 pixel is not very high but is normal for small phone like this.
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 T28s is not comfortable for hold in ones hand because it is too wide.A numerical keypad placed below offers appropriately-spaced keys and are pleasantly comfortable in use.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 T28s'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 T28s has to offer: there's also support for SMS, .and spacious phone book..
Performance
Audio quality on the T28s was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 700 mAh Li-pol battery is rated for 4.3 hours talk time or 65 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 105 minutes.
Availability
The Ericsson T28s is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Ericsson's T28s is yet another model in a range of phones from experienced users from Ericsson. A new compact design and a reduced sized battery - which avoids rendering a negative impact on battery life - ensures a thin and light phone which is ergonomically comfortable. |
