Mobile phone Fly E135

Let me present to you the most detailed of all the Russian-language Internet survey of mobile phone Fly E135.

For the first time after reading about this device in early October, I immediately decided that he will be one of the contenders for my next purchase. Poorness of information were offset by the imminent release period – mid-October, but not in October or in November, he appeared on the shelves. Terms pushed the yield due to software improvements, but before the end it was not finalized (see below). In early December, the body still came to Toronto, and I took him one of the first in the “threaded”, because at the Rostov site Euroset it is not now.

At Toronto GSM News have something like a review, but terribly incomplete. What is worth at least that dvuhsimochny device tested with one Simko! In the mobile-review.com bungled the promised review, but did not, because the Moscow office of Fly phones for the test are not to interrogate. But enough of preludes, closer to the body.

Options: Phone, battery to 1050 mAh, charger, consisting of two blocks (universal charging with USB-output and a USB-cable to the computer), wired stereo 3.5 mm, clothespin, a microphone and answer button, mini-disc ON, 1 stylus (the new party will not), brief instructions and garantiynik. The required minimum, so to speak.

Corps. Phone my dark graphite color, even on the box and says Grey. Do not believe the office. site, they have flowers all frightened. Externally looks very nice and expensive, at least 12000. Corps consists entirely of plastic, in the hands not creak, the battery compartment lid is removed, and only when tightly pulled out the stylus, which is a plus.

The front panel is a large touch screen (3.2 inch 240 * 400 pixels 262 tons of colors), it is resistive type, which means that the owner will not have problems in winter with gloves click on the screen. And then for the unfortunate owners ayfon even devised special gloves that, without removing them, poking at the screen. Clarity of stroke treatment is high, compared with Nokia 5800 and Samsung Star is higher. Brightness can be controlled both manually and using the sensor lighting. Very handy thing, I tell you. The bright sun, he wrings the backlight at maximum, and in the dark places in the least. At the same time and charge the battery saves. Brightness and contrast on a good level, with direct comparison with the same 5800, Fly wins in brightness, but loses a bit of picture clarity due to a smaller resolution.

Above the screen there is a hole earpiece and light sensor. Under the screen there is the necessary minimum of keys, receiving / reject the call button and menu with a house, stylized under Windows. The left side is located connector for microSD-stick, covered with a plug, a standard 3,5 mm jack for headphones, and again a standard miniUSB connector. These connectors plugs are not covered. At the top end is key lock / unlock. On the right side is a multifunctional volume button, searching through books, zooming, etc. and a button to activate the camera.

Phone book is very convenient. First, there is division on the map to Simka, and when set to the general list, then next to each entry is a miniature, showing how room. Secondly, there is the so-called kinetic scrolling. Very useful when the list of many numbers. Hold your finger across the screen, and the list starts to scroll itself, not turn the pages too fast, so you can catch klatsnut to the desired number. Is still here and search for letters. Thirdly, there is a backup, for example, you have changed or lost Simka, and data from it can be restored. Cool. Fourthly, there is a blacklist. Powered by two Simko. Groups are also present.

Messages. Reports intervenes built-in accelerometer, when you turn the mobile phone sideways, you can print on ytsuken keyboard, which is much faster and more convenient than standard alpha-numeric.

Options are extensive, allowing you to configure the device for themselves. They can, for example, disable one of the SIM cards, or both.

Applications. The device allows to read office files (word, xls) and pdf, as well as plain text files txt. Ease of viewing is average, but it’s definitely better than nothing.

The device is able to turn off Java-based applications without stopping them. This is especially important when running “ICQ” and “Opera”. Also there is a built-in games, based on the sensor motion. Bones and Music DJ. Unfortunately, my game with the ball, you want to drive into a hole, install failed, but perhaps it can not игрухи separate. Games for popular sensornikov with the same screen resolution are not everything, but it is understandable.

Audio Player is convenient settings, sound tihovat a complete wired headset, but for me it does not matter, because I use a wireless blyutuzku. Sound quality is just super. A little bit better just by Motorola.

The camera is quite good (3.2 megapixel), no more. Beats analogues due to the powerful LED flash, which is the range of 2,5-3 meters. In complete darkness, this flashlight can illuminate a small room. Switched on by pressing 2 sec. the upper volume key. She also works when you hover on an object, not just the photography, as in the previous Fly LX 600.

Autofocus and macro no. But the text 12 font in A4 format is quite possible to make out, more and I do not. The camcorder shoots in scanty resolution 176 * 144. Pro quality silent.

On the second day bought a film on the screen for ayfon, a little cut, and voila, now the screen is protected from scratches. By the way, I want to give a little advice. Do not buy accessories in the salons of mobile communication, they’re awfully expensive. Well, judge for yourself, the film on the screen they should p 250-350. in Auchan I took in 56 p. Same with memory cards and covers.

Work with two SIM cards is implemented well. There is no apparatus the primary and secondary cards. With every call and you can go online. I, for example, calls for using “Tele2″ and for “ICQ” and “Opera” MTS with 1.55 per megabyte. And if “ICQ” is not transmitting at the moment Join over there, that are active both Simko. And since the “ICQ” very little goes to the ‘Net, then calls you should not miss. If you still are afraid to miss the right call, you can do so. In the second Simcoe put the redirection of inaccessibility to the first, and when the first is busy talking or Ineta, you will be able to answer the call with the second card. When dialing add just one click, with a choice of what Simko call, no need to look somewhere at the end of spec. click to toggle (spitting in the direction of the Samsung).

CPU powerful enough video opens in full screen and normal conversion does not pull. I recommend to use Total Video Converter. Photos are opened with my camera down (10.2 MP), which is very bad.

Desktop is very convenient. Rather, three of them are here. Image as wallpaper can be set as 240 * 400, then when moving between the tables, it will not be changed, or 360 * 400, then it will move. Widgets are also present. These 12 pieces, I will not enumerate, but there is all that is needed, and even a special winter widget – a snowman. Very nice, when the entire screen snowflakes begin to fall. In general, buy, learn themselves.

Also in the body has a few chips:
1. Change Wallpaper shaking (was activated G-sensor).
2. Shake-control in the player and the radio, when the shake right, then plays the next melody / radio, and the left – the previous one.
3. Also in the main menu, you can move the icons on your own. I do not recall this anywhere except Motorola.
4. Below the screen is a quick access to the phone. book, files, messages, etc. They can also be changed at their discretion.
5. There is a built-in answering machine. That is, messages are not the operator, but directly to your mobile phone. And then while listening to not have to pay money to the operator. Cool.
6. Stopwatch, Converter, Auto on / off, change order on a schedule, radio as an alarm clock and much more. Phone me 10 days and every day I discover in it something new.

Time autonomous work quite well. When continuously running “ICQ”, 40 minutes reading books, listening to music with headphones and without somewhere hour, and conversations within 10-15 minutes a day, the phone is held not less than 3 days. A good result for dvuhsimochnika, the more I have not swung the battery. Interestingly, the mobile phone itself is made on Nov. 25, 2009, ie week before the start of sales in Russia, very shustro Chinese work, fellows.

Now for the minuses. Their little, but they are.
1. Earpiece tihovat. Not just that very quietly, but could be louder.
2. Kverti Virtual keyboard does not work in Java-applications. Only alpha-numeric.
3. Standard Opera does not work, but not critical, because installed version 5 specifically for sensornikov, and it works fine.
4. Inconvenient reader. First, there is no completely full-screen reading, and secondly, it has problems with character sets, before injection into the body, you need an envelope in KOI8R, then all the rules. Also on the screen does not fit a lot of text because of the large field between the lines, but this is nit-picking.

Finally I want to consider the competition:

1. Fly E145. Price 4490 against 135 in 5290. Because of the differences we find 800 rubles worse than the camera (2,0, no flash), simpler design (although black and orange looks nothing), less screen and less elaborate interiors, good lines are icons, but a bit more capacious battery 1150 mAh. Describe in detail the differences can not, because 145 is not on hand.

2. Samsung B5722. Less and less screen is 12000 rub. That more than twice as expensive as the hero of our review. The presence of plus 2 radio unit, the more battery capacity 1200 mAh, but it still can not be discharged more quickly, again because of the two radio unit, so that plus the dubious, auto-focus camera (landscapes are comparable, when shooting close objects Samsung wins).

3. LG KS660. Model 2008, less than the 3.0 screen. It is also about 12000 River. From the good plus the 5 megapixel camera and two modules.

Result. During 5290 pp. model pays for itself twice as much on minor shortcomings do not pay attention almost, all the doubters, I hope my review helped. Like nothing important is missed. With the advent of the new firmware from the official forum admin Fly – promised to eliminate all shortcomings, and even a little increase functionality. For example, I would very much like to have a desktop widget with the weather. I sincerely wish everyone on the phone of your dreams!
