 Haier P5 is announced in 2003
Design
Haier's P5 has a standard design for this class handsets, measuring 28 x 135 x 18 mm and 75 grams. Despite the weight it has a good feel in the hand, and the good shaped plastic body and styled highlights give it an attractive and nice look.The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 64 x 102 pixel is not very high but is normal for small phone like this.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker.
Lacking LEDs of any kind, however, the display - combined with vibration and audible alerts - is the P5's only way of notifying users of new messages and missed calls. This is common for all Haier handsets, requiring users to inconveniently have to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting rather than just glance at it.
Ergonomics
The P5 is not comfortable for hold in ones hand because it is too wide.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Haier handsets.The plastic keypad has good placed keys, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.
Features
Dual band 900/1800 MHz connectivity isn't all the Haier P5 has to offer: there's also support for GPRS, and a range of applications such as Java MIDP 2.0, a voice recorder, all of which laptop and handheld users will be pleased to learn is a breeze to utilize either by means of GPRS support is the fastest way to download files with your mobile, and spacious phone book..
Performance
Audio quality on the P5 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 520 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 2 30 hours talk time or 150 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 78 minutes.
Availability
The Haier P5 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Haier's P5 is yet another model in a range of phones from experienced users from Haier. A new compact design and a reduced sized battery - which avoids rendering a negative impact on battery life - ensures a thin and light phone which is ergonomically comfortable. |
