Latest Phones market is staggeringly growing thanks to the consumers and the manufactures. Everyday hundreds of new designs are released, new technologies, powerful cameras, 3G etc by the well knows companies. Sony Ericison is a giant in the field and possesses dominance in their own way. They're well knows for their old and also for the latest phones robustness as well as top quality audio out puts too. Anyway, this is review of the E995.
There are three color choices with the unit. You can choose between Black, Silver or Red (energetic red). In physical dimensions it's 97 mm is length, 49 mm in width, 15 mm thick. It weight around 113 grams (with the battery. The display screen is reasonably big and runs at 240 x 320 screen resolution. Memory supports up to 16GB and this latest phones comes with a pre-loaded memory readings at 118MB (but the actual usage may differ eg- System file usage etc).
Another key feature with the latest phones these days are the video camera. This gadget consists of a monstrous 8.1 Mega-Pixels capturing device. This is one of the key features of the device itself. But the screen size is poor considering the camera quality and to have a sense of the picture quality, it's almost impossible through the poor low resolution of the display. And according to some phone testers, the cameras' picture quality is poor. So another disappointment with the E995 phone.
The unit also comes with built in WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0, GPS, 3G, HSDPA, UMTS and GSM with various frequencies varying from 850-2100 MHz. The web browsing experience was also disappointing. The default browser is called the NetFront. Starting from loading pages, rendering high-res image, the unit struggles. But the scaling of pages to the mobile display screen, fast page loading are good. But the thing is if they included another Opera Mobile browser for example, the results would have been much satisfying.
But when it comes to the multimedia experience this is one of the best among latest phones. This has always been the case with the Ericison family. It only supports MP4 and 3GP formats. But the impressive thing is that, you can load .avi or WMV files and the device will encode it all by itself! This is not a super computer, so it takes some time.
Anyhow, with the basic functionality such as the calling out put quality, SMS and e-mail etc facilities are top notch. It really should receive some credit for those specifications. The overall battery life is also very impressive. By default it has 9 hours of continuous talk time and 15 days of standby time. This is also a big plus.
So all in all, after considering some major drawbacks, if you seek a device which enables you to take top quality pictures, great video and internet experience then this is not for you. However, if you need an excellent unit with clear call-audio output quality and best music and a powerful battery, then this is one of the best latest phones solutions.
