Cheap But With Good Internet Connectivity - Nokia 1680
If you're tight on the budget and want a mobile phone just for taking and making calls... the Nokia 1680 is the best one I could recommend.
The Nokia 1680 isn't a high feature phone, of course, but it's a practical phone if you're low on budget. It's a good phone for kids or your grandparents.
It is has great build and isn't easy to break plus the menu system is easy enough for your kids to understand. Its a stripped down version of all the latest mobile phone today and its the better version of the Nokia oldies.
Anyway, here are the details for this budget phone.
Design:
The Nokia 1680 looks simple and reliable. It's slim and its easy to hold, it is only 108 x 46 x 15 mm but weighs only 73.7 grams. It's easy to keep and feels good to hold. The has a TFT Screen. It displays 65 thousand colors in 128 x 160 pixels resolution. It’s a bit small but enough to see the messages. The colors are vibrant and the screen displays images really well. They keypads are well suited and it’s easy to press.
Camera:
There’s nothing much about the camera features of the Nokia 1680, but if needed it can provide. It only has VGA Camera, not much I know but it’s good enough for taking pictures in close range and taking video clips.
Multimedia:
There nothing much to say about the multimedia features of this budget friendly phone either. It only has a Video Player, but its for checking and replaying your recorded videos. It doesn’t have a Music Player nor an FM Radio either.
Internet:
As for Internet connectivity, it surprisingly has EDGE and GPRS. It also has WAP 2.0 Browser. You can browse around the net in fast speed. This is pretty amazing for a budget mobile phone. There are nothing more than those however.
Messaging:
The phone supports SMS (Text Messaging) and MMS (Multimedia Messaging). It has Instant Messaging and Predictive Text functionality which is a handy functionality among speed texting users. You can send Email from the phone and it uses POP3, IMP4 and SMTP protocols.
Calling:
For a cheap costing mobile phone, it’s only good if you’re within the city when calling. Well, you can bring it to other places as long as they support Dual Band GSM 900 and GSM 1800 frequencies. Signal is still dependent on network providers.
Memory:
Just for saving messages and contacts, the Nokia 1680 is more than good enough. It has 32 Mbytes Flash Memory and 4 Mbytes SD RAM.
Battery:
Not all cheap mobile phones have great battery life but not this phone. It can stand up to 7.6 Hours Talk Time or 424 Hours Standby. That’s very important and this is what makes a phone useful.
It's cheap and you can easily find 12 months free line rental deal on this one. You can even get a cheap Nokia 1680 contract deal easily off the net.
