To
meet the demand for information and entertainment features on mobile
handsets, Siemens has launched theA 25, the company's first
"consumer class" WAP phone with an integrated WAP 1.1 browser.
It is a dual band GSM 900 and 1800 for roaming within the GSM network,
and has triple rate vocoders for superior speech quality.
Designed to appeal to the increasingly
sophisticated age sector of 16 - 30, the stylish handset includes
exciting new entertainment features such as "Picture
Messaging" and "Calling Faces".
Picture Messaging allows the user to send fun and
emotive images instead or in addition to text messages via SMS. Calling
Faces adds further emotional value to every call by allowing you to add
amusing and personal face icons to important names in your address book.
When your mobile phone rings, the screen will flash with your chosen
face.
Weighing 110 grams, the C25i, available in various colours, has a standby time of up to 180 hours and a talk time of up to
300 minutes. With features such as stopwatch, currency converter, silent
alert, clock with date and time stamp and calculator, the C25i is set to
raise the standard of mobile phones for the growing demands of the
private users.
Additional entertainment features include games
and a ring tone melody composer.
Users are able to personalise their C35i by
selecting the menu level, the menu format and through programming own
user profiles to meet their individual needs. For example the menu level
can be set to "fast" if simple tasks such as making and
receiving calls is all that is required.
Alternatively, more sophisticated users may choose
the "complete" setting to use all the phone's features.
Furthermore menu items can be enlarged to just one line on the display,
aiding and simplifying the display for those with poor eyesight.
