 Sharp GX10i is announced in 2003
Design
Sharp's GX10i has a standard design for this class handsets, measuring 49 x 94 x 27 mm and 110 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.A perfectly adequate 65,000-color display is bright and crisp, and is a far step above the dim 4096-color versions on even the most recent Sharp models.The display resolution 120 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.
Lacking LEDs of any kind, however, the display - combined with vibration and audible alerts - is the GX10i's only way of notifying users of new messages and missed calls. This is common for all Sharp 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 GX10i 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 Sharp handsets.The plastic keypad has good placed keys, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.And last,but not least, a four-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
In the WAN department, the GX10i boasts healthy support for Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz, as well as GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as Java MIDP 1.0, 16-channels polyphony, a voice recorder, all of which laptop and handheld users will be pleased to learn is a breeze to utilize either by means of infrared old wireless device,GPRS support is the fastest way to download files with your mobile, and spacious phone book.
As previously mentioned, the GX10i is also equipped with a 0.1 megapixel camera support for picture-taking .
Performance
Audio quality on the GX10i was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 720 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 3 30 hours talk time or 250 hours standby, which is very good for battery's theoretical capacity.Charge time is about 108 minutes.

Conclusion
