HTC T-Mobile Shadow
The T-Mobile Shadow is a sleek slider phone with a 4 x 2 x 0.6 in inches measurement and a weight of 5.3 ounces. This easy-grip phone also comes in copper and sage colors. The hip T-Mobile has a 2.6 inch screen with QVGA display that has 65,000 colors and a pixel resolution of 320 x 240. The screen can go from portrait to landscape viewing. One set-back is, its not touch-screen.
Aside from it’s easy to use alphanumeric keys that can be accessed by sliding up the front cover, owners can try using the navigation wheel which can go clockwise and counterclockwise. The QWERTY keyboard has 20 buttons that uses SureType hardware from Research in Motion. Using the two-letter keys, text can be inputted by XT9 or multi-press method.
The T-Mobile’s right side contains the shortcut and camera activation keys, while the left side has the volume rocker and the USB/headset port and microSD slot. Since it is a quad band, it has world roaming. Its other voice communication features are address book, caller ID, speakerphones, text and multimedia sending and receiving and voice dialing.
Though the T-Mobile Shadow highlights its phone functions more, it is among the Windows Mobile 6 smartphones. It has an integrated Wi-Fi for accessing the internet and a built-in Bluetooth that can be used with wireless and stereo Bluetooth headsets and hands-free kits. Users can get Windows Live Search as well, which helps in searching for directions and getting traffic conditions.
It is bundled with Microsoft’s Direct Push technology for real-time email and auto-synching with Outlook via Exchange Server. Users can have AOL, ICQ, Yahoo and Windows Live Messenger applications. It also has the Microsoft Office Mobile Suite for using Excel, PDF Reader, PowerPoint and Word.
A Windows Media Player 10 Mobile enables users to enjoy AAC, MP3, MPEG-4, WAV, WMA and WMV music and video files, as well as recorded television shows from a Windows Media Center PC. T-Mobile’s 2-megapixel camera can be placed in camcorder mode and in sports and contacts picture modes. There are brightness, resolution, quality setting and white balance choices among other effects. Storage is 140MB, but the microSD slot accepts as much as 4GB media.
It uses the Texas Instrument OMAP processor with 200MHz and has free program memory of 63MB making for a less speedy performance when heavier applications are in use. The T-Mobile has around 5 hours of talk time.
