<p>T-Mobile just officially announced what we’ve all heard for a pretty long while — they’re going to be adding some summer colors to their BlackBerry lineup starting today. First up is the BlackBerry Curve 8520 in Fuchsia Red. It hits T-Mobile’s retail stores and online today and will retail for $49.99 with a two year service agreement. In terms of the big boy toys, T-Mobile is rolling that luxurious-looking BlackBerry Bold 9700 in “Flash White”. That device will start to become available on May 26th for the same price as the current 9700, $129.99 with a two year agreement. Lastly, T-Mobile’s BlackBerry 9700 OS upgrade that just became available will be pre-loaded on the new Casper Bolds out of the box. We’re not complaining.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Pantech.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1535" title="Pantech" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Pantech.jpg" alt="" width="204" height="314" /></a>It seems like in future some of the unknown models will be able to overcome the gap between them and the popular brands. While the comarcials are slowly moving from the way leaving the customers with more of a conscious type of  thinking, we see that they start buying the devices which are truly fulfilling their desires.</p>
<p>This fact becomes obvious especially when taking into accout the fact that more and more people start to have 2 and more phones. One of the phones is usually of more of an expensive brand while the other is usually cheap and non-functinal.</p>
<p>But then we see that some of the companies start to provide the customers with rather affordable phones which have an exclusive design. This makes the customers to have the desire to show their best buy to the friends. As such a company can be truly called Pantech. Pantech phones have a unique design with various features.</p>
<p>They seem to be not only attractive in overall design: every single button and curvation is well thought of . Some of the designers call Pantech phones true devoters of the future generation.</p>
<p>Another emphasize is made on the color scheme. <a href="http://www.pantechphones.net/">Pantech phones</a> come in a crazy variety of colors which makes the possibility to meet the expectations of the customers. They are both typical black and silver for the businessmen and bright for the female population. While the plain colors are somewhat boring, the wallpapers provided by the company truly brighten the design and the overall appearance of the smartphones.</p>

Hum. What can I say about this rather unique company. Well, first of all this company is quite &#8220;old&#8221;. It started its march in early 1898! Just imagine even before the new world order was created.</p>
<p>This might mean two important things: firstly, the company has been functioning so proper that even decades past it&#8217;s first steps it is still one of the world leaders in the field of the device production. The list of the equipments produced by the company is just not a topic for a single post.</p>
<p>The second important thing is that the company is able to adjust its equipments with the demand of that period. The thing is that the company is hiring the most powerful and creative designers and technology specialists of the world- to get the best results. I would argue that they actually got the best results ever.</p>
<p>As for now the company is consisting of four separate compartments: Philips Consumer Lifestyle, Philips Lighting, Philips Healthcare and the Philips Phones. Each of the compartments is organized in its own way to satisfy the desires of the public.</p>
<p>While the first 3 of them have a long history of development the last one is quite new. The <a href="http://www.philipsphones.net/">Philips phones</a> produced within this company are quite typical for this brand. Some of the critics think that Philips will not be able to gain larger shares in the market. But so far the company seems to be rejecting all of the rumors and proves to be the one that might have all of the necessary changes in the future.</p>

While the association is somewhat understandable, we still need to pay attention to the other products provided by this awesome company. The most outstanding one is the Asus phones.</p>
<p>I think the production start of the phones is quite reasonable. The thing is that some of the companies can not afford them making smartphones while this is definitely not true about the company Asus. As a leading company specialized in advanced technologies this company is now cooperating with various companies abroad.</p>
<p>Some of the most popular specialists work this company allowing to make the most non-realistic but attractive projects into reality. The crazy cooperation with them is now being witnessed in diverse forms and functionalities of the phones. You only need to use your imagination and then you&#8217;ll see that the company is actually providing this kind of phones.</p>
<p>The company is not specializing at the specific details of the phones. The thing is that company itself is participating in the development of various innovations and that&#8217;s why the newest discoveries are soon being realized in the forms of the <a href="http://www.asusphones.net/">Asus phones</a>.</p>
<p>The company got the reward of the most efficient companies in the field of information technologies not for a single year but for the years of 1998-2003. This result is so good that is hasn&#8217;t been bet by any other companies yet.</p>
<p>The starting point of the phone production was made on 2008. During this 2 years the company managed to receive a lot of attention from the list of publications.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/mobile_alcatel-ot-708-one-touch-.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1543" title="mobile_alcatel-ot-708-one-touch-" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/mobile_alcatel-ot-708-one-touch-.jpg" alt="" width="169" height="300" /></a>Those who think that some of the European countries cannot afford making proper smartphones most likely don&#8217;t know about the Alcatel company and its brandy Alcatel phones.</p>
<p>Starting as a communication company in France Alcatel is now majoring its work while producing a list of various phones. So what are the main beneficiaries of these phones and why some 130 countries decided to cooperate with the company?</p>
<p>To answer the question let&#8217;s go over the main advantages of the <a href="http://www.alcatelphones.net/">Alcatel phones</a>:</p>
<p>1. These phones are rather affordable due to the fact that the materials used to make the phones are rather inexpensive and easy to get. The material used for the phones also makes them even more lighter. This means that even the third countries can afford getting a phone.</p>
<p>2. The phones are entry-level and thus are pretty easy in use. The fact that those who are getting a smartphone and spending half a month to get used to the most (and definitely not all) functions of the phones can now safely rest.</p>
<p>3.The design of the phones is rather unique. Let&#8217;s call it more of a European style. The edges of the phones are not as sharp as the ones on the American models and the phones are not as skinny as the most of the outstanding brands. It feels like this is the golden average.</p>
<p>4.Alcatel phones are working for the both targeted groups of male and female. The thing is that though the company is mainly producing phones with a numerical order such as Alcatel OT-800 One Touch Chrome, but  there are still some models designed especially for women such as Alcatel Miss Sixty, Alcatel Elle GLAMphone and etc.</p>
<p>5. The company is successfully cooperating with a list of various companies abroad and especially with mobile operators.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: right;"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1486" title="hero_hands_824" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/hero_hands_824-200x300.jpg" alt="hero_hands_824" width="200" height="300" /></p>
<p>The HTC Hero has been an object of lust for some time now for gadget enthusiasts. Even from the earliest days of leaked hardware shots andblurry demo videos of its UI, smartphone fans seemed to agree that the company had finally achieved what has been missing in the world of Android. Namely, a polished and attractive device &#8212; polished enough to go head-to-head with the iPhone &#8212; that kept its open source heart. So, here we are months later with an actual, bona fide Hero in our midst. Yes the reports were true, it is a beautiful device, both inside and out (though of course opinions differ on that chin). But does being a beautiful device mean Android is about to move to a bigger stage? Is HTC&#8217;s spit-shine enough to overcome some of the hurdles that have plagued the platform? That question &#8212; and more &#8212; is answered in the text below, so read on for the full review.<br />
In terms of overall design and layout, the Hero is very much a product of evolution. Like its forebears the G1 (or Dream) and MyTouch (or Magic / Ion), the general stats like screen size, technology, and resolution, button placement, unit size and weight, and basic aesthetic are pure HTC. Like those previous devices, the Hero contains a smattering of hardware buttons on the base (or chin as some call it) of the phone, including a home, menu, back, send, end, and dedicated search key. The device also sports a trackball in this area, which shouldn&#8217;t surprise any Android aficionados.</p>
<p>Where the Hero breaks from convention, however, is in the overall look and feel of the phone. If the Dream and Magic felt plasticky and cheap (they did), the Hero is quite the opposite &#8212; it&#8217;s like a solid brick in your hand. The casing is made of a soft-touch material (Teflon on the white version to prevent dirt), and the shape of the device takes a much more severe, almost rectangular slant. The buttons along the bottom are small, evenly spaced ovals (save for the search and back key &#8212; we&#8217;ll get to that), the earpiece is covered in a stylish mesh, and the volume rocker on the side is a smooth, single button. The screen also uses a new oleophobic treatment (similar to the iPhone 3GS), and thankfully HTC has added a 3.5mm headphone jack to the top of the phone.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1487" title="hero_hands_601" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/hero_hands_601-300x138.jpg" alt="hero_hands_601" width="300" height="138" /><br />
Overall the appearance is sleek and modern &#8212; it&#8217;s like the Magic was beamed to the year 3000 for a redesign. Besides the chin (which some people will nitpick, though we don&#8217;t mind), the Hero is a home run when it comes to looks, though it&#8217;s not without issues. One of our main gripes with the phone is the layout of the hard buttons. The four across the top don&#8217;t bother us much, but the placement of the &#8220;back&#8221; key is a huge pain. It basically forces your hand into a cramp-inviting position &#8212; it&#8217;s an unnatural move for a key you&#8217;ve got to use a lot. If you&#8217;re left handed, it&#8217;ll seem fine (great even), but as a righty, we found it inconvenient and uncomfortable. It&#8217;s actually perplexing as to why the back button lives where it does on the Hero &#8212; the Magic&#8217;s placement is much more accessible and a lot more comfortable to use for righties or lefties.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1488" title="hero_hands_805" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/hero_hands_805-220x300.jpg" alt="hero_hands_805" width="220" height="300" /><br />
The guts of the Hero should seem familiar to most gadget buffs &#8212; they&#8217;re essentially identical to HTC&#8217;s Magic (at least the Rogers version). What does that mean for you, end user? It means you&#8217;re stuck with the same Qualcomm 528MHz CPU, the same 288MB of RAM, and a paltry 512MB ROM. The onboard radios include WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth, and a quad-band HSPA cell chip. The model we tested is the European release of the phone, and as such is only able to access EDGE networks here in America. Luckily for us we don&#8217;t leave the house much, so most of the time we were on WiFi. So just to be clear, beyond the new screen coating, industrial design, and improved camera, this phone is the HTC Magic inside.<br />
The display on the Hero is gorgeous, no doubt. Using a similar smudge resistant material as the iPhone 3GS, it certainly seems to repel oil, though you&#8217;ll still find yourself wiping it clean on a regular basis. The 3.2-inch, 480 x 320 capacitive touchscreen works well, but not notably better than its predecessors &#8212; in terms of color and clarity, however, the Hero&#8217;s LCD is on par with the competition. One nice added feature is a proper light sensor here, so automatic dimming works as it should, whereas neither the Dream nor the Magic can take advantage of the eye- and battery-saving functionality. There&#8217;s nothing particularly special about this screen, however we noted a bit less blurring while scrolling through long pages or detailed images, a problem which we&#8217;ve been bothered by with the Hero&#8217;s Android brothers. One problem that plagued the unit we were testing was screen freeze ups &#8212; it just simply wouldn&#8217;t accept any input. This seemed to happen mainly on the homescreen, which made us feel like it might be more of a software problem than a hardware issue (we&#8217;ll get to that momentarily).<br />
The Hero&#8217;s 5 megapixel camera is pretty darn amazing, we must say. Coming off of most devices with their paltry 3-or-so megapixel entries, it&#8217;s a real treat to have an onboard cam which can actually stand in for a proper shooter. While the image quality isn&#8217;t up there with dedicated point-and-shoots, it&#8217;s certainly leaps and bounds better than the nearest competitor, with near-macro focus length. We take a little bit of issue with HTC&#8217;s UI design on the camera app &#8212; using the sometimes-slippery trackball for both zooming and snapping shots seems kind of ill-advised to us, though we didn&#8217;t have much trouble with it (a toggle to cancel zooming would be nice). As with most phone cameras, the colors weren&#8217;t quite as vivid as we would have liked &#8212; bright hues somehow came out murky with the Hero &#8212; but we weren&#8217;t expecting the world here. HTC seems to have tweaked shutter speeds and processing as well, as snapping photos was noticeably faster than on the earlier Android phones, though we still think the iPhone 3GS and Pre feel tighter (of course the Pre doesn&#8217;t have to worry about that pesky focusing stuff).</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1489" title="hero_extra201" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/hero_extra201-300x192.jpg" alt="hero_extra201" width="300" height="192" /><br />
On the other hand, video recording on the Hero wasn&#8217;t quite as awesome an experience as still photos were; the maximum resolution is a pathetic 352 x 288, and even at that resolution we experienced noticeable hiccups and stalls in our videos. We&#8217;re not asking for much, but we&#8217;d at least like some smooth VGA here. If you plan on using this for any kind of decent video &#8212; think again.<br />
We&#8217;re big speakerphone users, so the external audio of a device is actually important to us (besides, how else can we entertain friends with the &#8220;Ras Trent&#8221; video while out and about?). The speaker on the Hero is definitely up to the task, producing loud and clear audio while on calls or listening to music. Of course, no one is really going to jam this way very much, but at the very least you can make our your tracks pretty clearly. For calls, the speaker and microphone seemed pretty outstanding to us (we were testing mostly with T-Mobile, mind you).<br />
We were impressed with the Hero&#8217;s staying power, though we&#8217;ll reserve our final judgments till we have a device running US 3G to look at. On EDGE / WiFi, we saw impressive, full day use with a single charge. Standby didn&#8217;t seem to pull much power, though it was obvious that many of the widget updates were just waiting till we woke the phone up, which made for maddening floods of syncing and updating (a real drain on speed). Overall, the Hero beats the pants off of our G1, and gives the Magic a run for its money. Battery life was favorable in comparison with the iPhone 3GS, and obviously puts the Pre in a world of hurt.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Realtone, which are actually real music ringtones, are now instead of polyphonies. Realtone or rintone is now all over becoming the biggest with market share with volume and user personlization. Mp3 ringtones taken the whole lot business for mobile music.

It is a great wireless company, with 52 million subscribers and is very competitive in the market. <a href="http://www.bestincellphones.com/sprint.asp">Sprint Phones</a> are one of the more popular and sought after cell phones.  Sprint has a good number of cell phone plans accessible to the people as they seek to provide a suitable service to as many cell phone customers as possible. They provide a good service and their plans are well priced.<br />
Sprint introduces advertisements to the purchasers who go for internet and IP access which sometimes makes the customer to feel uneasy.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Phone for a business man is not just a communication tool; it&#8217;s a loyal assistant and a thing that determines his status in the eyes of colleagues. Keen style in design and technology, have a right approach to choosing a business phone.<br />
Let’s take, for example, the new Fly B600. I think it’s a worthy candidate.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1213" title="1" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/124.jpg" alt="1" width="350" height="395" /><br />
<strong><br />
Design</strong><br />
The phone designed for a business man must meet certain standards of mobile dress code, without pretentiousness and brightness. The device should not attract attention. All these requirements and wishes fully correspond to a new Fly B600 business mobile phone.<br />
The dimensions of this phone are 110&#215;49x14 mm. Weight is also proportional: only 110 grams. The device easily fits in pockets of trousers or a jacket.<br />
The front panel is made of a high-quality plastic. The back part of Fly B600 is made of a soft (it seems rubberized) plastic. Camera protrudes from the shell and has no cover. Thus, you will have to put the phone either on screen or on the lens of the camera &#8211; decide which one you need less.<br />
I think that serious buyers can find any drawback in this phone.<br />
<strong><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1214" title="2" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/214.jpg" alt="2" width="300" height="518" /><br />
Display</strong><br />
Asian manufacturers have accustomed us to the fact that their phones have displays above average. And if you&#8217;re skeptical you expect good performance from the screen of B600 but I have to disappoint you. Executed on TFT-technology, the display shows up to 260 thousand colors and has resolution of 240&#215;320 pixels (2.4 inches). As a result, the screen takes up the most space; keypad and the speaker are simply lost in the background.<br />
The first thing that your eye catches is that the display is very, even too bright. But the real shock comes after a short jogging on the settings. Colors are juicy and bright, the image is perceived well, did not catch on for anything. Such a display is perfect for working with text and calendar.<br />
The only thing that upset me are its viewing angles. They are sufficient for comfortable work; however, the image is badly tarnished vertical even when rejecting a couple of degrees.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1215" title="3" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/313.jpg" alt="3" width="300" height="519" /><br />
<strong><br />
Keyboard</strong><br />
Dark and light gray buttons harmoniously complement each other.<br />
The screen took so much space that the bottom row of keys, could hardly find a place, and moved gracefully as the fourth column in the right lane. Of course, such a decision is unusual for most users, but it is not so critical that the next day at the level of reflexes fingers themselves find the right path.<br />
Buttons should be sufficient for comfortable work, have an average course and allow you to quickly and carelessly work with any text.<br />
Additional controls are buttons to access the camera on the right end (horizontal shooting mode) and the usual rocker for volume control, on the left side. In addition, one should mention the three connectors (they are all closed strong enough plugs) &#8211; expansion slot for memory cards microSD, mini-USB (it also serves to connect the charger) and 2.5-mm headphone input (TV-out).<br />
<strong><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1216" title="4" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/413.jpg" alt="4" width="400" height="110" /></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1217" title="5" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/511.jpg" alt="5" width="400" height="110" /><br />
Menu</strong><br />
The menu of Chinese phone is almost always quiet horror. No eastern colors, all is very succinctly.<br />
The main menu shows 12 icons; with the upper line the system information is available in both the substantive and in any sub-menu. Chapters are arranged quite comfortably and that is important &#8211; it is logical. There was only one question. It is unclear why the album is under &#8220;Entertainment&#8221;, but Video album in &#8220;Multimedia&#8221;. Agree that it can be called only a minor drawback.<br />
Separately I want to note the high level of localization is another issue of Asian phones. All menu items are transferred without errors, absurd reductions as a result of which it is impossible to understand. Well, the font is very nice; the eyes do not get tired.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1218" title="6" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/613.jpg" alt="6" width="350" height="279" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Functions</strong><br />
Although we have determined that this phone is suitable for business people. Thus the phone should support applications which business man needs. First, it is an organizer. Menu of Fly B600 consists of a calendar, tasks, alarm and world time. Calendar is comfortable enough, you can assign notes (point of the problem &#8220;duplicate this feature, and made, apparently for faster access) to the date and time, while adjusting items such as: light, repetition, timing, number of repetitions. The only drawback of the calendar is the weekly view.<br />
The user provides three independent alarms, each of them can choose the time (including on the day).<br />
Business phone should have a convenient phone book. Again, and this parameter B600 demonstrates enviable results.<br />
Your phone can store up to 1000 contacts together with name and number there are 5 additional fields of information where you can indicate birth date and picture, video clip, tune and add to the user group.<br />
The phone book displays contacts, both from the internal memory, and located on the SIM-card.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1219" title="7" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/714.jpg" alt="7" width="350" height="263" /><br />
As we see, business indicators of the phone are up to date. But there are also additional functions. For example, an MP3 player with good mid-level (headset included, but the 2.5 mm input lets you connect via an adapter and more serious headphones).<br />
There is FM-radio, a simple photo editor, composer, Java (games and programs in Java is not preinstalled), calculator, converter units and currencies.<br />
But what is most interesting is that this phone has some exceptional abilities. First recall the aforementioned TV-out (cable included). Easily connecting your phone to your TV provides great opportunities for both presentations and to view photos in the family.<br />
By connecting the telephone to a computer via miniUSB cable (included, but not with a standard connector), you&#8217;ll see a menu of three items: use your phone as a modem, a flash-drive or as Web-camera.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1220" title="8" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/812.jpg" alt="8" width="300" height="297" /><br />
Fans of honor on the road will appreciate the availability of reading &#8220;electronic books&#8221;. Settings are enough for comfortable reading. Of course, you can find a replacement in the ranks of Java-applications, but the existence of such a function is inherent, whatever one may say, plus.<br />
Finally comes the function that you&#8217;ve encountered only in smartphones running Symbian and then as an alternative software. This is the background sound, overlay tube during a call. You can adjust the volume, duration and interval. You can choose from 10 preset or 10 of your (possible record with voice recorder) ringtones.<br />
When you activate this feature you can lay on the couch, honestly say that standing there in traffic and the phone will simulate car horns, noise, uproar, and all that you want. Of course, it&#8217;s not fair, but &#8211; rather funny.<br />
You can connect your phone with the rest of the world through the miniUSB cable, Bluetooth 1.2 (support SPP, DUN, OPP, FTP, A2DP profiles, and remote control) and GPRS (WAP 2.0, built-in POP / SMTP-client).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1221" title="9" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/912.jpg" alt="9" width="380" height="325" /><br />
<strong><br />
Camera</strong><br />
A 3.2 megapixel camera with flash and autofocus is already a matter of respect, though photos are not of the best quality.<br />
As we have already mentioned, you shoot in a horizontal position.<br />
The camera cannot turn into a camcorder. The latter is a separate program and is available from the &#8220;Multimedia&#8221; menu. Rollers can record the entire free memory at resolutions 176&#215;144 and 352&#215;288. Codecs are MPEG4 and H.263. Video has good quality, it is quite enough for viewing on the phone and share with friends. As for the camera, it works very slowly. When shooting with a maximum resolution (2048&#215;1536 pixels) by pressing the capture button to direct the photograph, is about a second or two, during which you are sure to slightly move the phone, and this guarantees blurry picture.<br />
It is noteworthy that when shooting from 1600&#215;1200 and less, you can not notice such things. There is a problem with low productivity of the processor.<br />
You can save your photos or video in 87 MB internal memory and microSD memory card (not included) up to 2GB.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1222" title="10" src="http://www.newphonesreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/1010.jpg" alt="10" width="350" height="253" /><br />
<strong><br />
Conclusion</strong><br />
Even though the phone has two stereo speakers, it is virtually inaudible in the city noise.<br />
The situation could partly rescue the vibration, but it is very weakly expressed, as in the pocket of pants, it is hardly felt.<br />
It is very uncomfortable to type SMS-message. For example, standard things such as capital letter after full stop.<br />
You can find a few more minor soft-roughness and irregularities. But let us remember the low price of the novelty above opportunities. Thanks to TV-out all the deficiencies can be forgiven at once.<br />
Despite the huge display, Li-Ion battery (940 mAh) copes with its task. Telephone works up to 4 days at 20 minutes of talking time and use of various functions. But even with such a very decent performance, the manufacturer added the supplied spare battery, just on the safe side.<br />
As a result, Fly B600 is very pleasant and worth much money. If you want a modern, reliable, functional assistant in the cheap price range, Fly B600 definitely can rightly be considered one of the best mobile phones.</p>
