The Sony Ericsson J110i was launched in February 2007 and does what it was designed to do superbly. The purpose of the phone is to reach the approximately 70 percent of the mobile phone market which already has a video camera and a digital camera and a computer and simply want a dependable phone with which they can send and receive mobile phone calls. These mobile phone users don't want to pay for a multitude of features which they already have in other devices or don't use at all.
The phone is night black with a functional appearance rather than being desired for beauty or designer elements in its appearance.
The Sony Ericsson J110i has a dual band 900/1800 Mhz network and measures 99 mm x 44 mm x 17 mm. It weighs in at 79 grams.
The Sony Ericsson J110i has a STN display incorporation 65 K colours which measures 96 by 64 pixels. It have included wallpapers and themes available to dress up the display somewhat.
The ringtones are polyphonic with 16 channels, but you get vibration mode and can download customized ringtones. An adequate phonebook, allowing you to record and retain up to 200 entries is in keeping with its intended use. Ten dialed, 20 received and 20 missed calls are also retained the in the memory bank.
Messaging is handled by way of EMS and SMS. The mobile phone does contain some games for your enjoyment.
T9, a calculator and a reminder are all features that are built in.
One other great feature is the built-in handsfree design which means you are in compliance with regulations relating to the issue of hand held mobile phones without having to purchase a car kit or adapters
The Sony Ericsson J110i uses a standard Li-Ion battery and because the battery is not being used for bells and whistles, it provides up to 400 hours of stand-by time or a strong 9 hours of talk time before recharging is required. Your battery time is not being utilized by other functions which you don't require in your mobile phone.
This may not be officially known as a 'Smart Phone' but it certainly is a smart phone for the person who wants dependability and good functionality rather than the extra features such as high-end digital cameras and wireless connectivity.
Best of all, the price is very affordable.
