 Panasonic A200 is announced in 2004
Design
Having gained fresh wind in its sails over the course of the past year or so, Panasonic has certainly made its mark on phone sale hit lists recently, the Panasonic A200 is a very slender and compact handset at 90 x 44 x 18 mm and 77 grams. The 16 bit - color display which is a little milky, dim and uneven, as well as having lower resolution than usual.The display resolution 128 x 128 pixel which is standart resolution for more mobile phones.
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 Panasonic handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The A200 lies well in ones hand.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 Panasonic handsets.The plastic keypad has good placed keys, with the shrunken center keys for no apparent reason, make the phone harder to dial than necessary.Unfortunately, the keypad of the Panasonic A200 emits excess noise, but on the bright side its keys have been comfortably spaced and sized. We're not entirely happy with the design of the navigational pad and its adjacent buttons, however, as distinguishing between these less easy than it ought to be.And last,but not least, a four-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
Dual band 900/1800 MHz connectivity isn't all the Panasonic A200 has to offer: there's also support for GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as WAP , Java MIDP 2.0, 32-channels polyphony, FAX/Modem, 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 A200 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 730 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 9 hours talk time or 300 hours standby, which is very good for battery's theoretical capacity.Charge time is about 109 minutes.
Availability
The Panasonic A200 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Panasonic's A200 is yet another model in a range of phones from experienced users from Panasonic. 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. |
