 Ericsson T29 is announced in 2001
Design
The latter quickly became immensely popular and also the manufacturer's flagship, but with the advent of the T29, Ericsson has finally entrenched itself as an important player in the market for experienced users, the Ericsson T29 is slender and not very compact handset at 95 x 51 x 22 mm and 104 grams. The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 96 x 48 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 T29 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 T29'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 T29 has to offer: there's also support for SMS, and a range of applications such as WAP , all of which laptop and handheld users will be pleased to learn is a breeze to utilize either by means of and spacious phone book..
Performance
Audio quality on the T29 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 850 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 7 hours talk time or 150 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 127 minutes.
Availability
The Ericsson T29 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Ericsson T29 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. |
