 Sendo SV663 is announced in 2004
Design
Having gained fresh wind in its sails over the course of the past year or so, Sendo has certainly made its mark on phone sale hit lists recently, the Sendo SV663 is a very slender and compact handset at 108 x 45 x 19 mm and 86 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 160 pixel ideal for small and smart phone.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker, while on the other side we find a dedicated camera button.There is nice LEDs which notify users of new messages, active network and missed calls. This is not common for all Sendo handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The SV663 lies well in ones hand.While the big display a numerical keypad placed on a small space offers appropriately-spaced keys and are not pleasantly comfortable in use.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Sendo 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 Sendo SV663 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 five-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
Dual band 900/1800 MHz connectivity isn't all the Sendo SV663 has to offer: there's also support for GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as WAP , Java MIDP 2.0, 16-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.
As previously mentioned, the SV663 is also equipped with a 0.3 megapixel camera support for picture-taking and when it comes to storage the SV663 offers 3 MB which is dynamically shared between images and J2ME applications.
Performance
Audio quality on the SV663 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 800 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 7 hours talk time or 400 hours standby, which is very good for battery's theoretical capacity.Charge time is about 120 minutes.
Availability
The Sendo SV663 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Sendo's SV663 is yet another model in a range of phones from experienced users from Sendo. 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. |
