 Haier N60 is announced in 2005
Design
Haier's N60 is a typical clamshell design. Measures 48 x 94 x 25 mm in size and weighing 127 grams, it is not light but feels very slender despite its size.The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 320 x 240 pixel ideal for small and smart phone.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker, while on the other side we find a dedicated camera button.There is nice LEDs which notify users of new messages, active network and missed calls. This is not common for all Haier handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The N60 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 Haier handsets.The plastic keypad has very limited key travel and jiggles independently of the phone, giving it a cheap feel while oddly designed buttons, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.The most notable trait of the N60 is of course the way in which it expands from an ordinary mobile phone with a numeric keypad to a fully fledged messaging device with a QWERTY keyboard.
Features
In the WAN department, the N60 boasts healthy support for Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz, as well as GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as WAP , Java MIDP 2.0, 64-channels polyphony, 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.
As previously mentioned, the N60 is also equipped with a 0.1 megapixel camera support for picture-taking and audio/video recording, as well as an integrated MP3 player.The latter of which is also the reason for why the 0 MB of internal memory, which initially appears spacious, is quickly stretched to its limits. MP3 and MPEG4 are both formats which can be stored for playback on the Haier N60.
Unfortunately, neither Memory Stick Duo format or any other method of memory expansion is supported by the N60, meaning users find themselves drawn by the MP3 playback capabilities will also quickly - and repeatedly - drawn to their PC and USB cable for updating ones playlist.
Performance
Audio quality on the N60 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 900 mAh Li-ion 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 135 minutes.
Availability
The Haier N60 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Haier N60 is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Haier design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
