 Samsung R210S is announced in 2001
Design
Heavily influenced by classic Samsung design in areas of shape, colour and design, weighing in at 99 g and measuring 110 x 46 x 24 mm, the R210S is petite and relatively lightweight. The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 96 x 64 pixel is not very high but is normal for low class phone.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker.There is nice LEDs which notify users of new messages, active network and missed calls. This is not common for all Samsung handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The R210S is comfortable to hold and lies well in ones hand.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Samsung 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 Samsung R210S 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
Dual band 900/1800 MHz connectivity isn't all the Samsung R210S has to offer: there's also support for SMS, and a range of applications such as WAP , all of which laptop and handheld users will be pleased to learn is a breeze to utilize either by means of and spacious phone book..
Performance
Audio quality on the R210S was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 680 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 3.3 hours talk time or 120 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 102 minutes.
Availability
The Samsung R210S is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Samsung R210S is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Samsung design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
