Data transfer, summary
There is no 3G, KP500 supports only GPRS and EDGE. Besides this there is an HTML browser, but if we want a page to fit on screen we really get a microscopical font size, so it’s not very good. The landscape view, however, is available here too.
Locally we have 2.1 stereo Bluetooth and the supplied data cable connects to a USB port of course. The CD in the box has a sync software on it, this lets us operate with phonebook entries and messages. KP500 can be charged from a computer via USB, and after connecting it asks if we want to sync data, used it as a modem or to handle it as an external drive.
The battery under the cover seemed shockingly small, but it kept the phone online for three days without problems, even though this included a wave of new-year SMS messages. Summary? KP500 can be successful because of its price. It’s full of small bugs and lacks, so we can’t give it a Recommended award. The sometimes slow software, the lack of autofocus and 3G… and these are the smaller things. Of course the phone has lots of other things as a compensation, but I don’t know how much would the production cost had been higher if they would have used a normal size caller picture, a headset that can be taken apart, or a small flash on the back… pity for them, but it’s still not bad.
