GSMArena feature lab: Enter new goodies - read the full textWe finally had a chance to put some time into developing a handful of new features for our site, so with the hot summer behind us, we rolled up our sleeves to shape several novelties that we’ve been reflecting on lately. We bet you’ll be...

 

Sort by:

which means that a reading of +3dB represents roughly twice more power??????
Sorry GSMARENA but are u sure? first dB is used for GAIN and
dBm and dBi is used for POWER so...be careful.
Then a phone with 66 dBm power????I am a BSS engineer and the power of antennas that an ordinary BTS has is around 33 dBm,how come 66 for a mobile phone!!!!!!

This is just awesome! But, you know what you guys miss out on? Some of the more detailed but more important aspects to normal users:
a) if the phone is fun to use
b) if the camera has a slow shutter speed, and if lack of flash really matters, etc.
c) the music players miscellaneous features or limitations (e.g. 30 song playlists (4 of them) on d900)

Could you guys test the quality of the signal reception? There are some places in my town where the signal is poor and this is a thing I consider when buying a cell-phone. Today I rely on opinions from friends, since there is no comparable information provided by manufacturers or specialized websites.

Can you guys make it so that you have to hold the left mouse button down to spin? It's a bit difficult if it just spins automatically.

Poor me. My browser hasn't got a Flash plugin as I'm using Opera Mini on my phone. I can't see what that new is here in GSMArena. :(

kk you are right about the loudspeaker test, as what came to my understanding t650 is the loudest when music is played which is incorrect also D900 is no where near to 6233. GSMARENA please clarify the results in your reviews as to how loud is the sound in comparison and what is your ratings!!

No walkman phone in audio testing :-)

IT IS VERY NICE EFFORT but one thing should also mention in audio quality and loud speaker loudness test that is this good,average,poor,excellent or whatever this is.bcz a person cant calculate the the quality by reading the dbs.so plz add more column in it and also give it the marks just like www.mobile-review.com

Yea, really appreciate the new features.. at least there're some quantitative results now that we can use to compare the phones' loudness - more accurate and certain!

i think there is somthing really wrong with the speakerphone test. i have almost tried half of the phones in there and i can safely say tht 6233 is the loudest amongest all the phones i have tried. kg800 (chocolate) , d900 , e250 have higher db rating then 6233? i think there is somthing seriously wrong there. But i love the effort. and i love the site .

I greatly appreciate your efforts, Admin. Now, we'll get the actual figures about one of the most important features of our cellphones - SOUND.
The 360 degree view is awesome but keep in mind that DON'T OVERDO IT. Flash will make the pages heavy to load. And you have visitors from all over the world, having different bandwidths. One or two flash animations are OK.
Great work buddies!!!

Good additions to review info. I hope you can incorporate the audio measurements in the specs sheets as well as in the reviews.

Also, another good addition would be to include release dates for new phones. There are several phones which are supposedly released in some parts of the world but still showing 'Coming Soon' in your specs sheets. Some phones that are said to be available, but have not yet shown up.
Examples of these would be Nokia 6500, Nokia 2630, Sony Ericsson T650.

Nonetheless, good job!

I would just like to congratulate the GSM Arena team on a great site. I've been visiting regularly over the past few years because I find your reviews to be thorough and very well written.

I think the 3D view and the sound measurements are a great addition! Even if it takes a little longer to complete the review, I for one would be prepared to wait in order to have the additional info.
