 Motorola V295 is announced in 2003
Design
Motorola's V295 has a standard design for this class handsets, measuring 47 x 87 x 22 mm and 97 grams. Despite the weight it has a good feel in the hand, and the good shaped plastic body and styled highlights give it an attractive and nice look.The 4096-color display is dim, not very bright and crisp, but is a far step above the very dim 256-color versions on even the most recent Motorola 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 Motorola handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The V295 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 Motorola handsets.The plastic keypad has good placed keys, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.
Features
Dual band 900/1800 MHz connectivity isn't all the Motorola V295 has to offer: there's also support for GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as Java MIDP 1.0, 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 V295 is also equipped with a 0.3 megapixel camera support for picture-taking .
Performance
Audio quality on the V295 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 700 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 5 hours talk time or 220 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 105 minutes.
Availability
The Motorola V295 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Motorola V295 is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Motorola design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
