Sony Ericsson C903 review: Slider-shot
Gsmarena have posted their review of the Sony Ericsson C903. Here are the key features, main disadvantages and final impression.
Key features:
Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE and dual-band HSDPA/ tri-band HSDPA in US version
5 MP AF camera with dual LED flash, geo-tagging, face and smile detection, active lens cover
Built-in GPS with A-GPS support, Wayfinder Navigator software, geotagging
Dedicated camera mode switch and gallery keys
Scratch resistant 2.4" 256K-color TFT display
Backlit D-pad shortcuts in camera mode
Accelerometer sensor for UI auto-rotate
Bluetooth (with A2DP), USB v2.0
FM radio with RDS and enhanced TrackID, YouTube client
Threaded conversations in messaging
Smart dialing
Main disadvantages:
Video recording limited to QVGA resolution at 15fps
M2 card slot under the battery cover
Camera key has almost no feedback at full press
The glossy surface is a fingerprint nightmare
No cover for the USB port
No office document viewer
All that being said, we come to rounding up our impressions. As we type our final words on the Sony Ericsson C903 review, we are left with nothing but good feelings about this phone. Its story has some ups and downs, but - on the whole - this sweet phone is definitely a positive and pleasing step forward.
One could grumble about the lack of Wi-Fi, but you cannot expect Sony Ericsson or any other company to incorporate it into every hi-end feature phone.
Our only wish would be to see the superb imaging quality from the camera of the C905 on this baby. It has the same camera quality as on the C902, and that's definitely in need of some improvements.
Generally, the materials, phone design, usability and new UI features leave us very satisfied with the Sony Ericsson C903. We cannot comment on the retail price of the phone, but we think it will be almost the same as the Sony Ericsson C902.
