Siemens A62 is announced in 2004
Design
Siemens's A62 has a standard design for this class handsets, measuring 45 x 101 x 19 mm and 76 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 Siemens models.The display resolution 101 x 80 pixel is not very high but is normal for small phone like this.
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 Siemens handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The A62 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 Siemens handsets.The plastic keypad has good placed keys, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.
Features
In the WAN department, the A62 boasts healthy support for Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz, as well as GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as Java MIDP 2.0, 16-channels polyphony, 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 A62 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 700 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 5 hours talk time or 250 hours standby, which is very good for battery's theoretical capacity.Charge time is about 105 minutes.
Availability
The Siemens A62 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Siemens's A62 is yet another model in a range of phones from experienced users from Siemens. 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. |
