 Siemens ME75 is announced in 2005
Design
Heavily influenced by classic Siemens design in areas of shape, colour and design, weighing in at 95 g and measuring 46 x 105 x 18 mm, the ME75 is petite and relatively lightweight. A perfectly adequate 65,000-color display is bright and crisp, and is a far step above the dim 4096-color versions on even the most recent Siemens models.The display resolution 132 x 176 pixel ideal for small and smart phone.
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 Siemens handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The ME75 is not comfortable for hold in ones hand because it is too wide.While the big display a numerical keypad placed on a small space offers appropriately-spaced keys and are not pleasantly comfortable in use.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Siemens handsets.The plastic keypad has good placed keys, giving it a cheap feel while oddly designed buttons, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.Its keypad is as pleasing in use as its chassis is on the eyes: tactile feedback is excellent and all buttons are placed in a logical manner - quite a feat, considering ME75's knack for quirky keypads.And last,but not least, a five-way joystick centered below the display.
Features
In the WAN department, the ME75 boasts healthy support for Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz, as well as 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 infrared old wireless device,GPRS support is the fastest way to download files with your mobile, and spacious phone book.
As previously mentioned, the ME75 is also equipped with a 1 megapixel camera support for picture-taking and audio/video recording, as well as an integrated MP3 player.The latter of which is also the reason for why the 0 MB of internal memory, which initially appears spacious, is quickly stretched to its limits. MP3 and MPEG4 are both formats which can be stored for playback on the Siemens ME75.
Unfortunately, neither Memory Stick Duo format or any other method of memory expansion is supported by the ME75, meaning users find themselves drawn by the MP3 playback capabilities will also quickly - and repeatedly - drawn to their PC and USB cable for updating ones playlist.
Performance
Audio quality on the ME75 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 700 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 8 hours talk time or 450 hours standby, which is very good for battery's theoretical capacity.Charge time is about 105 minutes.
Availability
The Siemens ME75 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Siemens ME75 is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Siemens design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
