 LG B2050 is announced in 2005
Design
Having gained fresh wind in its sails over the course of the past year or so, LG has certainly made its mark on phone sale hit lists recently, the LG B2050 is a very slender and compact handset at 44 x 105 x 15 mm and 72 grams. A perfectly adequate 65,000-color display is bright and crisp, and is a far step above the dim 4096-color versions on even the most recent LG models.The display resolution 128 x 128 pixel which is standart resolution for more mobile phones.
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 LG handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The B2050 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 LG 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 B2050's knack for quirky keypads.And last,but not least, a four-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
In the WAN department, the B2050 boasts healthy support for Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz, as well as GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as Java MIDP 1.0, 40-channels polyphony, a voice recorder, 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 B2050 is also equipped with a 0.1 megapixel camera support for picture-taking and when it comes to storage the B2050 offers 1 MB which is dynamically shared between images and J2ME applications.
Performance
Audio quality on the B2050 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 780 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 2 hours talk time or 200 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 117 minutes.
Availability
The LG B2050 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
LG's B2050 is yet another model in a range of phones from experienced users from LG. 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. |
