Review of "Nokia 3100"

The company "Nokia" at one time won a lot of fans. Successful solutions, unusual appearance and functionality of the products allowed the company to take the lead. One of the best devices released in the distant 2003, was the phone 3100. Attractive design and a set of characteristics made the device popular. What is interesting about the device?

Design

I liked "Nokia 3100" users first of all for its unusual. The face of the device is transparent, this decision of the designers allowed the owners to decorate their device. If necessary, the case changes easily, since all parts are held on the latches. Thus, the user can easily change the appearance and color of his device.

Ahead "Nokiya 3100" there is a display, a talking speaker and keys. It should be noted that all the buttons are rubber and change quite easily. The material of the keys allows you to work comfortably with the device. The fingers do not get tired, but all the actions are performed smoothly.

The left side of the device is empty, and the speaker is placed on the right side. The manufacturer decided to move the volume control to the device's joystick. It can not be said that such a move is successful. During a conversation, controlling the volume is not very convenient. The back of the device is empty, except for the lever to remove the cover.

The miniature device weighs only 86 grams due to the light transparent plastic. Working with a small phone is convenient. Mobile phone does not slip out of hands and does not cause discomfort.

Screen

Display "Nokiya 3100" square shape. The screen dimensions are 27.3 by 27.3 mm. It looks a bit strange, but it does not spoil the exterior. The resolution of the small display is only 128 by 128 pixels. Accordingly, the user catches the eye "cubes". If not for this, it would be possible to consider a miniature screen quite successful.

The display of the device is quite bright and has in stock 4096 colors. The backlight is soft and almost does not tire the eyes. However, real problems arise in the sun. The screen is very blind and it's almost impossible to make out what is happening on it. Even setting the maximum brightness does not solve the problem of "Nokia 3100".

Autonomy

The model 3100 has a removable battery for 850 maH. Capacity is quite enough for four days of operation in the passive mode. Batteries, when using the Internet and calls, enough for a day. Even with maximum load, the phone can work up to 12 hours. Since the battery is mostly discharged only by the Internet and calls, the charge lasts for a long time. The battery is charged quickly, literally in a few hours the capacity is restored completely.

Memory

With the memory in the phone is a huge problem. The user is slightly less than 1 MB. This is enough to save a few melodies and pictures. There is no flash card slot, so the owner will have to approach the memory consumption in a balanced way.

There are many restrictions in 3100. The user can install about six games, and their "weight" should not be more than 64 kilobytes. With MMS is also not easy. The device can store only 15 messages weighing no more than 45 kb.

Connectivity

Supports GSM network device: 900, 1900 and 1800. You can use WAP or GPRS of the sixth class to access the Internet. The choice is small, speed too, but for small tasks this is quite enough.

To download images and ringing tones, the user can use the Internet or do it with a USB cable. Unfortunately, there is no infrared port in the device.

Equipment

Supplied with the "Nokia 3100" instruction, warranty, device for charging, battery. In some cases, the USB cable is included in the kit. Although the equipment and a small, it is enough. The user only needs to charge the device. If necessary, you can buy a headset for using the radio and a spare case.

Sound

Conversational speaker mobile has a good power. At maximum volume, the conversation is audible even at a considerable distance. Of course, it's best to set the sound to half, then the conversation will be comfortable. The speaker does not give out any foreign noise or noise, the interlocutor is audible clearly. The sound of melodies, calls and an alarm clock is loud. Even on the street, the user will hear the phone.

Device Features

In addition to an interesting "chip" with a transparent body, which can be decorated, there is the opportunity to expand the capabilities of the device due to accessories. The installation of VGA-camera makes it possible to do with the help of "Nokia 3100" photo. Since the memory of the device is not enough to accommodate pictures, the additional gadget has in stock 8 MB. In the camera itself, you can save about fifty photos. Also through the Pop-port you can connect the FM tuner.

Reviews

A lot of fans of the company preferred "Nokia 3100". The characteristics of the device in 2003 were quite acceptable. Added phone appeal and an extensive selection of accessories. In addition to the usual laces and casing, the user could equip the device VGA-camera or tuner radio.

Unusual appearance also interested users. Left to "Nokiya 3100" reviews make it clear that the transparent body, which can be decorated, fell to the taste of the youth. The model can be turned into a bright and catchy device with the help of improvised tools.

Functionality is also not left without attention. Excellent organizer, network access, games and other functions almost equated the device to the business class.

Of course, the device has many shortcomings and shortcomings, but the main problem is the innovation introduced. Transparent body was very fragile, after a strong blow it bursts.

The result

The output of the device 3100 increased the popularity of the company. A relatively inexpensive and advanced device was greeted by fans on "hurray." Stylish appearance, simplicity in work and high reliability made "Nokia 3100" a real hit.
