 SonyEricsson J300 is announced in 2005
Design
The classic style of SonyEricsson design in areas of shape, colour and design, weighing in at 94 g and measuring 99 x 43 x 18 mm, the J300 is petite and relatively lightweight. 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 SonyEricsson models.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 SonyEricsson handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The J300 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 SonyEricsson 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 SonyEricsson J300 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 SonyEricsson J300 has to offer: there's also support for GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as WAP , Email client, Java MIDP 1.0, 40-channels polyphony, Loud Speaker, 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 J300 is also equipped with , as well as an integrated MP3 player.The latter of which is also the reason for why the 12 MB of internal memory, which initially appears spacious, is quickly stretched to its limits.
Unfortunately, neither Memory Stick Duo format or any other method of memory expansion is supported by the J300, meaning users find themselves drawn by the MP3 playback capabilities will also quickly - and repeatedly - drawn to their PC and USB cable for updating ones playlist.
Performance
Audio quality on the J300 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 760 mAh battery is rated for 4.5 hours talk time or 304 hours standby, which is very good for battery's theoretical capacity.Charge time is about 114 minutes.
Availability
The SonyEricsson J300 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
SonyEricsson J300 is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical SonyEricsson design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
