 Telit G83 is announced in 2003
Design
Heavily influenced by classic Telit design in areas of shape, colour and design, weighing in at 99 g and measuring 110 x 48 x 23 mm, the G83 is petite and relatively lightweight. The 16 bit - color display which is a little milky, dim and uneven, as well as having lower resolution than usual.The display resolution 128 x 128 pixel which is standart resolution for more mobile phones.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker, while on the other side we find a dedicated camera button.
Lacking LEDs of any kind, however, the display - combined with vibration and audible alerts - is the G83's only way of notifying users of new messages and missed calls. This is common for all Telit 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 G83 is comfortable to hold and lies well in ones hand.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Telit 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 Telit G83 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 four-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
In the WAN department, the G83 boasts healthy support for Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz, as well as GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as WAP , Email client, Java MIDP 1.0, a voice recorder, 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,GPRS support is the fastest way to download files with your mobile, and spacious phone book.
As previously mentioned, the G83 is also equipped with a 0.3 megapixel camera support for picture-taking .
Performance
Audio quality on the G83 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 750 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 4 hours talk time or 150 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 112 minutes.
Availability
The Telit G83 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Telit G83 is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Telit design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
