A Motorola C350
No, this is not the picture of my handset, it’s a picture from the website. The theft of my phone had left me penniless so, somehow after conjuring up around 2000 bucks, I went off to the second hand mobile shop to search for a cheap phone with USB Modem capabilities. What I wanted was a samsung C100 but I couldn’t find that in any of the shops so I decided to settle for a Motorola C350. As I had already used my friend’s handset for a week, I knew that it had a decent modem with USB connectivity. Anyways, I have tried to list the Pros and Cons of this wonderful handset(not the original one but the second hand piece that I have) below. Pros:-
Decent modem with USB pop port.
Cons:-
Pathetic display with huge dots forming up the tiny screen.
Screen conveys a feeling of depression.
256 color screen.
Pathetic menus.
Disgusting text entry mechanism.
Extremely bad ringtone quality.
Body looks like the handset fell off a moving vehicle and a few trucks ran over it.
Poor battery life.
Crashes whenever some memory operation is performed.
Lack of profiles.
* key of the keypad broken in 3 places.
Switches off automatically
Vibrator louder than the ringtone.
Maximum 2 lines of text on the screen at a time.
After a message has been typed, you have to press atleast another 6 buttons to send it.
