Asus P535

Battery/Conclusion
It uses the Li-Ion 1300 mAh battery, and charges using the USB slot. Charging time is fairly over an hour using the charger, and more than three hours via computer. Battery life, however, is quite bad for a business-class phone. At full charge it gave me about 1 1/2 hour of talktime.

The phone is clearly for the businessmen, bankers and the likes, given the bland and professional look (will go fine with that gray tie). If you are making a shift from another Windows mobile phone, you will be pleasantly surprised by some different and newly added functions of the phone. Not having EDGE, in this day and age is unacceptable. In any case, it sure is a fast phone. Rs. 35,000 is still a lot for a phone, but we have seen what the phone can do. It's for people who are really in need of a business class phone.
