 Nokia Vertu Duo Stainless is announced in 2001
Design
Nokia's Vertu Duo Stainless - one of few models from Nokia featuring a more traditional candy bar design, the Nokia Vertu Duo Stainless is very heavy and too big handset at 122 x 42 x 15 mm and 177 grams. The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 128 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 Vertu Duo Stainless's only way of notifying users of new messages and missed calls. This is common for all Nokia 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 Vertu Duo Stainless lies well in ones hand.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Nokia handsets.The plastic keypad has good placed keys, with the shrunken center keys for no apparent reason, make the phone harder to dial than necessary.Unfortunately, the keypad of the Nokia Vertu Duo Stainless emits excess noise, but on the bright side its keys have been comfortably spaced and sized. We're not entirely happy with the design of the navigational pad and its adjacent buttons, however, as distinguishing between these less easy than it ought to be.And last,but not least, a simple two-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
In the WAN department, the Vertu Duo Stainless boasts healthy support for Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz, as well as SMS, and a range of applications such as voice commands, FAX/Modem, all of which laptop and handheld users will be pleased to learn is a breeze to utilize either by means of infrared old wireless device,and spacious phone book..
Performance
Audio quality on the Vertu Duo Stainless was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 950 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 6 hours talk time or 200 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 142 minutes.
Availability
The Nokia Vertu Duo Stainless is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Nokia Vertu Duo Stainless is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Nokia design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
