Multimedia, summary
The camera resolution is 2 megapixels and it has fix focus. The image sensor can’t be too large as the images taken by it are very noisy, even in spite of having a strong, oil-painting-like noise filter, and the dynamics range is also low, so the “camera phone of the year” award is not going to Viva, that’s sure. There are quite a lot of settings: white balance, JPEG compression, light metering (average and center-weighted), and exposure correction (+/- 2 EV in 0.5 steps). We can record videos at a resolution of 176 x 144 pixels.

The new handset is of course not afraid of music either. Tracks can be played back with Audio Booster, which can filter them by artist, album, genre and composer – of course we can use playlists too if we want to. It displays album covers; it’s easy to use with fingers, so it’s completely okay. The equalizer still launches only if we have the headset plugged in, this is a great mystery, but it’s not that annoying. Sound quality is medium both on the handsfree speaker and the headset.
Before summing it up I’d like to mention uptime too. There is an 1100 mAh battery supplying Viva with power, which can keep it online for even three days, thanks to the low power-consumption CPU – of course if we’re also listening to music this is reduced to one and a half days or two at most. And now for the summary: the gross price of Viva will be around €270 EUR. We have to pay a similar amount for Touch Slide, but we shouldn’t forget that Viva is a new handset. And as such it’s worth this money, as although it’s not made of premium quality materials, it still runs TouchFLO lightning fast and it comes with almost all required functions. It’s a great pity for the lowered display, but no matter, I can still recommend it.
