Sony Ericsson C901 GreenHeart review
Network and connections
A particular phone that lets you guess its peculiarity right from the name. This version of the C901 is in fact eco-sustainable, developed by significantly reducing the environmental impact of the construction phases. Despite this, the technical characteristics remain excellent, with a GSM Quadband receiver that guarantees perfect reception. It also features UMTS support for advanced network functions. To browse the Internet, the dedicated browser will be able to quickly open every HTML page. This is thanks to the internal modem, with HSDPA data traffic management. Of course, Bluetooth and a USB data cable output are not missing.
Design and equipment
A clean, elegant and charming style. The white coloring further enhances the idea of low environmental impact, almost giving the device a pure imprint. The Candybar body keeps the dimensions rather contained, with 13 mm of thickness and 107 grams of weight. On the front is the display, a 2.2-inch TFT QVGA, capable of displaying up to 256,000 colors. It is also equipped with an accelerometer for automatic image orientation. Just below is the handy multifunction directional pad, which together with the function keys allows you to perfectly manage every operation. The keyboard is a standard alphanumeric one.
Main features
The proprietary platform immediately proves to be rich and complete, with easy-to-use applications. Java support also allows you to customize your device with any compatible software you like. Support for simplified writing helps a lot with composing texts, so you can always keep SMS, multimedia messages and E-mail under control. You can also view Office and PDF attachments. Interesting is the CO2 calculator, still in keeping with GreenHearth's respect for the environment. Voice features, on the other hand, boast speakerphone, voice recorder and multiconference support. You can also make video calls.
Entertainment and multimedia
The features dedicated to leisure also prove to be of quality. The digital camera in fact allows you to take sharp and brilliant photographs, thanks to the 5 megapixel optics. Digital zoom, Xenon Flash and dedicated functions allow for perfect capture, even for video recording. The memory available for saving personal data is 120 MB, further expandable via Memory Stick Micro (M2) cards. In this way it will be possible to always have your favorite audio and video files with you, to play with the dedicated multimedia player. An AM/FM radio antenna also allows you to receive radio channels. Finally, GPS support offers functionality
