Data transfer, summary
W980 has almost everything, everywhere. It supports GPRS, EDGE, UMTS and HSDPA for transferring data on the mobile network and at local level we have stereo Bluetooth and USB, both at version 2.0. To use the USB we’ll need the software from the CD and then we can fully sync the phone with our PC. We can also enable mass storage mode, which makes the 8 GB internal storage seen as an external drive by the computer, but in this case the phone gets brain-dead and gets off the network.
The built-in browser is no big deal, but it has the expected stuff (landscape browsing, fullscreen mode, zoom, cursor display) and I had no problems with speed. W980 can of course work as a modem too. It was easy to make a video call and although the front camera is no world class stuff, it’s perfect for such things.
The battery under the back took it for two days at me. This includes lots of tampering, browsing, testing, Google Maps and listening to radio, so this is no bad performance. If you don’t need high-speed mobile internet then standby time can be increased by turning 3G off. The internal keypad backlight will be red on top and white on the bottom when plugged on a charger, while this will also make a small LED turn on near the connector on the side.
Summary. It’s hood, but it’s not good enough. The limits of the FM transmitter might be a bad thing for people in some regions. If it has a motion sensor they could have installed some more complex fitness apps and games and this camera with fixed focus and without a flash is quite a shame now. The design is subjective, I think one can get used to it, but it’s still great in musical terms. Time will tell what this will be good for, but with all its flaws, W980 is still a…
