I've been using this phone(D900i) for over an year now and only curse the day I purchased this blasted phone for 9.5k. I mean I feel even my 4.8k Nokia 3110 was much better than it.
I'll present to you the actual description of its features:
1.Camera - Average, 3 Mp good but the delay(2-3 sec) it takes to save,poor(nearly no) flash counter it.
2.Music player - pretty good.
3.FM radio - good. Though auto station detect isn't much reliable.I manually found out 11 stations(in Blr) while it detected only 4.
4.Ringtones,Voice memo recorder,speakerphone - Avg
5.Messages - Average, though the range of characters it allows you to type is limited to alphanumerics and a few symbols(heck I hate it when I can't use quotes("),apostrophe(') or star(*) symbol).
Though messaging provides many good options.
6.Phonebook and mobile tracker - good.
7.Java games - Good. Though hardly any chance for installing a new game(4 MB constraint), also there are too many compatibility issues.
8.Calls-Huge lists for keeping record.But don't use speaker mode in a call, as they forgot to put option of switching back to normal mode.
9.Phone mode-pretty good, but 'no profiles' annoys me.
10.Browser(WAP 2.0)-it's like the worst browser there could be.. slow,unable to load big(>~200KB) pages, and not so good for viewing pages either.
11.Personal organiser functions - good.
12.Alarm-3 alarms-wake up(has snooze option), 2 additional alarms. Prettty good.
13.Document viewer for MS Office, PDF and HTML files - It's only a myth!!! None of those features is there.
14.Size,design,look,display - Pretty impressive, though display visibility is highly vulnerable to sunlight.
15.MicroSD card slot - It's handled like a uncopyable readonly memory, can't copy, edit, delete any file on it... on connecting to pc. memory card doesn't even show up.
16.MOST IMPORTANT - Battery - Max. on time - 3 days(if no call, music, radio etc.), 1.5-2 days(on 1 hour voice call) and you can do the math..
Conclusion: With every good on this phone, there are way more bads attached.. e.g. so many multimedia options but alas meagre battery renders them all useless..also good radio but can't be used without earphones and so, can't allow phone to be charge at the same time.
For any queries, post a comment here and I'll answer them.
Thanks.
