Panasonic A102

Panasonic A102

 

The A102 is an ultra-small, lightweight handset with a pearlescent finish that gleams at your fingertips. It has the sheen of a high quality accessory and is packed with all the... more...features you would expect such as an easy to use icon menu, and high capacity memory. The A102 offers vibration alert and ringtones that can be allocated to specific call groups, such as families, friends and work colleagues. Choose from 10 pre-installed 16-polyphonic ringtones to suit your mood and taste. Or use the melody composer to create your own ringtones. When your hands are tied, this loudspeaker feature allows you to hold a call without holding the handset. Chat to your friends or work colleagues in a convenient group conversation anytime, anywhere. Navigate quickly with super simple icons and menus. Plus, with a surprisingly large screen for its small size, predictive text input and backlit keys, messaging has never been easier.

"Battle mobile"... small, very small... so small that sometimes it's easy to forget it into your pocket...

I received it as a reward more than 2 years ago from Vodafone (my Italian telephone provider), it fully did its job until now, doing something that most modern and ultra-technological phones forget to do... CALLS!

Among integrated cameras, USB, radio, mp3 players and other "weird contraptions", it's easy to forget the reason why cellular phones were made.

On the contrary, this Panasonic does it, and it does very well.

Signal is really good even in places where coverage is fleeting.

Microphone and speaker have a high fidelity.

It also has T9, the "system" that makes wrting SMS easier.

Battery lasts long: A102 never left me during the day, while other phones, like Motorola, did.

This little mobile had a troubled life with me... various attempts of drowning... lots of falls from different heights (one of them from the second floor of my house)...
In spite of all these problems, except for the inevitable damages on the cover, it did not turn a hair.

The only negative side is the keypad... keys are too small for my fingers (or maybe my fingers are too big for these keys!!).

In the box I found also the unfailing charger; I have to say it's quite quick.

There's an exhaustive user manual too... as comprehensive than useless, considering how easy the phone is!

I recommend Panasonic A102 to anyone who wants a "strong" mobile, reliable, easy... and that is JUST a phone!
