 NEC N223i is announced in 2003
Design
NEC's N223i has a standard design for this class handsets, measuring 45 x 88 x 26 mm and 110 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 NEC models.The display resolution 120 x 160 pixel ideal for small and smart phone.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker.
Lacking LEDs of any kind, however, the display - combined with vibration and audible alerts - is the N223i's only way of notifying users of new messages and missed calls. This is common for all NEC handsets, requiring users to inconveniently have to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting rather than just glance at it.
Ergonomics
The N223i 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 NEC 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 NEC N223i has to offer: there's also support for GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as Java MIDP 2.0, 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..
Performance
Audio quality on the N223i was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 780 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 3 20 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 NEC N223i is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
NEC N223i is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical NEC design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
