Nokia 1101 is announced in 2005
Design
Having gained fresh wind in its sails over the course of the past year or so, Nokia has certainly made its mark on phone sale hit lists recently, the Nokia 1101 is a very slender and compact handset at 46 x 106 x 20 mm and 86 grams. The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 96 x 65 pixel is not very high but is normal for small phone like this.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker.There is nice LEDs which notify users of new messages, active network and missed calls. This is not common for all Nokia handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The 1101 is not comfortable for hold in ones hand because it is too wide.A numerical keypad placed below offers appropriately-spaced keys and are pleasantly comfortable in use.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Nokia handsets.The plastic keypad has good placed keys, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.Its keypad is as pleasing in use as its chassis is on the eyes: tactile feedback is excellent and all buttons are placed in a logical manner - quite a feat, considering 1101's knack for quirky keypads.And last,but not least, a simple two-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
Dual band 900/1800 MHz connectivity isn't all the Nokia 1101 has to offer: there's also support for GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as Java MIDP 2.0, 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 1101 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 850 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 3 hours talk time or 300 hours standby, which is very good for battery's theoretical capacity.Charge time is about 127 minutes.
Availability
The Nokia 1101 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Nokia's 1101 is yet another model in a range of phones from experienced users from Nokia. 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. |
