LG GD910 Wrist Phone

[Lucjan]

LG GD910 - the first serial-hours phone, shown within a few days before the exhibition Mobile World Congress 2009. Serial - means that this concept is ready to go into production, technically everything is ready, no problems there. After the LG its vision of such things to demonstrate the company Samsung, called S1100. But, unlike the mobile phone LG GD910, is only a concept, which is unlikely to be running.

The phone, which does not look like a children's toy, Phone doesn't have tiny buttons, which are made of glass and metal, In addition, the first such phone, which in size is not too much different from the clock. . The thickness of the main part - a little over centimeter - is acceptable. Weight is 84 grams - quite heavy on hand.

The body is made of solid stainless steel articles, plastic edging into leather. strap with quite a regular buckle. . The screen is protected by tempered glass over the screen can see the lens built-in camera, the hole dynamics. On the right side there are three buttons - all the controls. Dinner off the call button to return - it is an adequate set.

The main difference LG GD910 from other devices - the touch screen. All management is done from the screen, and it is allowed to watch beautiful, interesting, deny them the usual keys, reducing the size. It seems that the only correct solution. Screen is small, only 1.43 inches, TFT with a resolution 128h160 points. Not the best matrix, even with this amount of settlement seems to be inadequate, picture grain, but the clock screen saver, the behavior in the sun - perfect. Pleased that such a small screen redraw developers interface completely, you can use it without any problems.

On the back surface - round steel lid with a characteristic mechanism of disclosure, it is equipped with a special rubber gasket to prevent accidental opening. The lid can only turn with the help of a subject, such as coins. There is only a slot for the SIM-card. Also on the back surface has a contact to the charger and the battery, of course, although quite light - device is working properly for about two and a half days of course if you phone only for making and receiving calls.

The phone clock is created just for calls, I may be a few SMS, but it is certainly not the main phone, but rather the second, or for walks, it is in such a way to use this device. And then there is the question of usability. It is clear that the implicit use of a wireless Bluetooth-headset, this is no problem. But it would be interesting if it was an opportunity to speak on the phone, making your ear. It is not always a headset is not always possible to include it. But this design does not allow the strap to do so. Remove your phone from your wrist problem, a long time, you can simply do not have time to answer the call. The phone has a speaker, and he is quite good, and so you can talk. In general, it would be very cool if these two ways of conversation have been combined, and we can choose convenient to us, depending on the situation.

But LG GD910 - still the first experience of creating this type of phone, and in future models, if the concept of a live, and such improvements are possible.

The first and most important thing in this phone - Stylization under his watch. There are 8 themes, screen savers - so watch different design. Digital, analog - in all cases, a lot of animation, a good drawing - watch looks very nice. And, more importantly, perfectly visible in the light of the room. Switch between different representations of hours, you can touch the screen up or down, lateral movements are different menu. A separate button for the menu is not here, but it is not needed, the interface is well designed.

The first menu call service. Two large icons that offer to make a normal or Video call. In the first case is called a virtual 12-button panel with a string of dialing - all quite normal. At the dialed number, you can call, send a message, save it in contacts, or to find amongst those saved in the memory or the SIM-card. When activated video camera . Staff working in the networks of third-generation, supported by 2100 at a speed of HSDPA 7.2 Mb / s, in addition, there are four GSM band.

Next menu - this is actually the main menu. In fact that are several representations for all tastes. 4 large color icons, black and white icons, listed. Working with the menu conveniently lists of large icon. Touch screen technology - capacitance, that is, only responds to the touch of a finger, and in your pocket will not be anything to click.

In other settings, the phone LG GD910 - default: date and time saving mode, light intensity, the choice of language, setting call forwarding, call waiting, variant network (GSM / UMTS), and so on. In general, it is not a limited set, which is typical for conventional vehicles.

By the way, MP3-player is very good, even with sorting by album, artist, genre and so on. There is a visualization when playing, the interface simple but well executed.

Contacts. Your phone can store up to 1000 contacts, and with all the fields. And add to each contact can be much as 5 rooms. Contact is also assigned a photo call, a heap of additional information like notes, addresses, office and home, WEB-address, and so on. There is a group, speed dialing, voice dialing, a search option for constructing the list. In general, it is a functional phone book, to which I have no complaints. Convenient to use a finger, a good organization, informative.

It also has everything needed, but typing is not so convenient, has a small screen size and, consequently, the keyboard. On the other hand, there is T9 mode, for small messages of this keyboard is quite enough. Messaging - text-only, there is no e-mail, MMS, which is understandable. In the list - the traditional division of incoming, outgoing, sent.

Conclusion

LG GD910 - very interesting, unusual, even unique. Yes, that image is larger than a phone or watch. Yes, such a device will draw the attention of many, to wonder, to discuss. This is really the first phone-watch, which looks decent, expensive.
