Sony Ericsson C902 review
Network and connections
A high-class phone offered by Sony Ericsson, the C902 proves to be absolutely complete and with qualities to amaze, starting right from its technical characteristics. It is a GSM Quadband phone that also takes advantage of UMTS connectivity, so as to guarantee uncompromising coverage in every part of the world, thanks to the ability to function in Dual Mode. In addition, with Bluetooth it is possible to exchange files with compatible devices, or even connect directly to your home PC through the USB 2.0 cable. The internal modem and HSDPA support for fast data traffic instead make it easy to browse the Web, viewing HTML pages with the dedicated browser.
Design and equipment
At first glance, the C902 presents itself with an innovative, fresh and high-tech design. The dimensions have been kept fairly compact, 10.5 mm thick for a weight of just 107 grams. So you can comfortably carry in your pocket a device with high potential. Two color options are available: Swift Black and a more vivid Luscious Red. The front is occupied by the 2-inch screen capable of displaying up to 256,000 colors. It features Touch Screen technology to help manage the various functions in the best way. Below instead is the standard numeric keypad, with a directional pad in the center for moving around the screen. The purchase kit includes the earphones, the USB cable and a convenient wrist strap.
Main functions
The Sony Ericsson C902 offers many practical and convenient functions for managing your daily commitments, such as the organizer synchronized with the calendar, with sound alerts for appointments. Or again the alarm clock and the currency converter. As for voice features, it offers support for multi-conferencing and video calls, as well as a voice recorder and speakerphone. The proprietary platform is equipped with Java support, so you can install additional programs to better customize your device. It is also possible to manage SMS text messages, multimedia messages and even E-mail, with support for various email clients.
Entertainment and multimedia
The multimedia personality of this phone is truly amazing. The Cyber Shot brand on the back immediately indicates the high quality of the camera. It is in fact capable of taking 5 megapixel images, at a maximum resolution of 2590x1940 pixels. Together with the built-in Flash and the 2.5X Zoom, videos will also be optimal in any lighting condition. All this is supported by dedicated functions, such as Face Detection for automatic face recognition and Autofocus. The musical aspect is no less impressive, with a multimedia player supporting various formats for listening to music with the Mega Bass function; it also integrates an AM/FM receiver for listening to radio broadcasts. Great memory availability, 160 MB expandable with Memory Stick M2.
