Product Reviews - Digital Trends Analysis

Do you remember what peoples attitude to photo cameras was before? When there were no digital cameras? A person with photo camera was almost an artist for people and at that with a technical grounding. Photo techniques took respect and knowledge of the process. Little by little photo techniques became more and more popular and then digital photo cameras appeared. Photographing really campaigned among the masses. After some time photo camera became common device as a mobile phone. Now it is as small as a mobile phone, just like Samsung NV30 which we are going to discuss today...

Talking about the line of RIZR phones and about Z10 in particular we should pay attention to the origin. So in 2006 Motorola started producing a new series of image sliders called MOTORIZR. Z3 became the pioneer which was the first GSM slider of the company at that. Much attention to the materials and body finishing and functional filling did not make Z3 a bestseller, but it made publicity pay attention to the new fashion tendencies. In the beginning of 2007 there appeared a renewed model called Z6. Now this phone was positioned as an image music slider. And again this was a pretty and multifunctional (only Linux core was worthy a lot) but unpopular device. This device quickly fell into a niche market segment where it peacefully passed away. Closer to the end of 2007 there appeared a Z8 model with a renewed philosophy. Plus to a catchy black-green color it has a quirky opening mechanism, Symbian UIQ platform and many other advantages, but this did not save this model from rather inexpressive volume of sales...

As it was promised by Samsung the first phone with two SIM cards called D880 DuoS is getting its logical sequel. This is a bar type “brick” Samsung D780 DuoS which has a good functional and the price is more suitable in comparison with its slider predecessor, well it was promised by the Company. Let us see what did Korean guys put in this novelty and how much does it differ from the first model...

Any object or thing whether it is animated or not come to this world having a definite aim. Some objects’ aim get its shape gradually, some has it right from the beginning. Mobile phones did not become an exception as for this. Every separate device is a screw in a marketing machine of a definite company. Well, you know it quite well, so the idea of this review will be different at all. There are phones with definite status, at that as a rule this status does not have connection with interior ranking of the company or market realities. No matter if this is the most contemporary offer or a budget decision - each phone has its own destiny. For example, let us consider a piping hot Sony Ericsson K660i...

iriver E100 became just a revelation for me, it seems like engineers and marketing specialists of this company read attentively the reviews of journalists who described  their production.

Samsung Company continues release of unusual phones and it is not quite easy for everyone to get accustomed to them. Yes, there comes a successor of P520 and F490 models, a Samsung F480 with completely (or almost) touch control system. Of course nowadays it is difficult to surprise advanced users with something, but in spite of that F480 seems to be more than an interesting example. Let us see what this novelty can do...

A Touch Cruise  communicator which we are going to get acquainted with today combines a TouchFLO control with high efficient filling and wide range of abilities and all this makes this model a leading one of the Touch series...

Lately the unofficial dividing on smartphones and PDA devices often confuses inexperienced consumers. And this is not surprising, because nowadays it is impossible to find a clear line between these devices. Apparently, the only thing that differentiates them somehow is a non-touch display, and in fact this characteristic cannot be applied to all cases. The hero of our review today is a Palm Treo 500, which reminds nowadays keyboard PDA devices as for its form-factor, but as for its functional part – PdA devices are the winners...

To my mind all types of players today feel uncomfortable themselves – on one hand mobile phones are winning their positions; it seems like mobile phones absorbed all thinkable and unthinkable functional and on the other hand players can be also defeated by PDA devices and this can happen in near future. Moreover, flash-memory became much cheaper now and strong competition bring good to us, consumers, players become more functional, the memory volume increases all the time and the prices at that became lower...

There are such phones that cannot be classified or described in a simple way. Such phones mean something more than simply a business device or any other definition that one may choose. A phone combining the best features of different categories devices is an almost unique thing in the conditions of nowadays severe mobile market. We can say without any false modesty that the novelty by Samsung - F250 model is exactly that kind of model. It is a bright, memorable, comfortable and functional and of course available model. The same ingredients which we see in many other devices are present here too, but what is the most important – is the proportion, but not the quantity. Surplus salinity of design and lack of spices in functional part of the device can spoil taste of any phone. In case with Samsung F250 after the taking a first taste it feels like Korean cooks managed to create a culinary-mobile masterpiece. Well, we should not rush and I think we should find all the ingredients of the recipe...
