Media For all you music lovers out there, yes it does have an MP3 player and an FM radio tuner as well. While the MP3 player is a great feature to have, I'm afraid the 2.5mm earphones jack doesn't do much justice. You can use an adapter to use regular 3.5mm headphones, but thats an additional cost. On the other hand, playing music through its loud speaker is a better option. It may not be crystal clear, but output-wise... it's ok. MP3s can be used as ringtones as well.
Radio pick up seems fine.
Now not having a camera may be a potential issue, but for the average person who's just looking for a phone to use for making and receiving calls and messages, it's just right. So for all you commuters out there this is an ok phone. You have your radio or music for company.
The speakerphone function works fairly well and the mic pick up also has a good range. So you can talk comfortably while driving. But don't.
Storage There's a bit of a problem here. After a little checking on their website, a slight discrepancy has come up. The website states that the phone can store up to 250 contacts in its phone book, but the box says it only stores 200. Hmm... Guess we'll have to find out that the hard way. So you realize this is not a phone for you business men and overly popular people who have a large contact base. You can look for more information on MBM mobiles here.
The phone does support MicroSD cards up to 1GB. So you should have plenty of space for your music files and wallpapers (128x128 pixel resolution of course). But all you get with the box is a 32 MB card. So you're going to have to shell out a few buckaroos for a higher capacity card. That's not good, even if a 1 GB microSD comes for just Rs. 750.
Now, here's something I haven't seen yet—in case you're wondering where to plug the USB cable into your phone...aha... you can't! Here's how it works: along with your kit you get a MicroSD card reader that you plug into your PC via USB and download your files onto the card. And then you insert the card back into the phone. A bit of a round-about situation here.
