Presenting the A03 mobile phone, which in my opinion, is very mid range in design.
Reading my first sentance, you might think that this means that this phone is actually not that good. Actually what I meant is that this phone is better off for a person that likes good looks, low price, and doesn't care if it is full of cutting edge tech. That being said, if your expectations aren't too high, then this phone will definitely suffice.
As for specs, the A03 boasts:
The phone is GSM quad band unlocked.
Dual SIM ports are built into the phone with dual standby also available.
The phone's construction is Polycarbonate plastic.
The screen size measures in at 3.0 inches, is TFT, and displays at 240x320 resolution.
Total weight for the phone is 105gms.
Total measurements for the phone are L114xW53xH11mm (length x width x height).
Mobile surfing of the internet can be done using GPRS and WAP 2.0.
Present and accounted for are the Bluetooth profiles handsfree, headset, and A2DP (along with some other profiles).
The phone is touchscreen only, but includes a virtual QWERTY keyboard for fast typing.
Battery life in general lasts 50 to 70 hours when on standby.
The phone is java enabled, meaning a user can locate and install java apps on the phone for new programs and games.
Extra media is provided from the MP3/ MP4 player, a camera/camcorder combo, an eBook reader, an analog TV, and a FM radio.
After playing with the A03, my thoughts on the pros and cons include:
Pros
The screen is the biggest thing about this phone and stands out (in a good way).
It looks a lot more expensive than it really is.
Adding java apps went without a hitch, and I was playing games very quickly.
Cons
Though functional, and of ok speed, setting up the internet on the phone involves a few steps.
It didn't come with any java apps pre installed.
If you want a phone that has flash, but its functions are mostly just solid in nature, then the A03 is not a bad choice for its price.
