Phone calls, data transfer

I had a couple of problems related to phone calls, all of them are due to software bugs. Sending my own number (which I still cannot remember, though I had it for years) is turned off by default on my SIM card, so after a handset arrives the first man I call always knows that I have a new phone, as he cannot see my number. Well, using Pixon everyone had this great feeling, as no matter I have turned on sending my caller ID, it didn’t work. A similar, and similarly serious, bug is that names in the contact list are always displayed in the first name, last name format, although the opposite can be set in the menu – it just won’t work.

By the way, the contact list can store 2000 contacts, there are quite a lot of extra fields. The call log can have a unified view, and we can take a look at dialed/incoming/missed calls separately too. There are no problems with messaging, besides text messages Pixon also supports MMS and email messages as well. We can store 500 SMS messages, while only the internal memory limits multimedia messages and emails – so we can have a lot of them. Voice quality is great, those who I’ve been talking to have even praised the quality of the phone, which is nowadays – unfortunately – a bonus.

The data transfer repertoire is not bad, but there is a four-letter feature missing, that has been present on Renoir: WiFi. The GSM module is quad-band (850/900/1800/1900 MHz), for data transfer we can use GPRS, EDGE, UMTS and up to 7.2 Mbps HSDPA. There is of course Blueooth support at version 2.0 and stereo sound transfer (A2DP) is supported as well. There is a built-in GPS receiver, and since there’s no navigation software we can use this in two places: for finding out our position on Google Maps, or for geo-tagging photos.
