'having said as much, i do like this phone very much. i previously tried out the samsung a900 for 2 weeks and thought that the design of the samsung was missing two crucial elements: memory and battery life. sanyo got both right in m1, and more.'
'Sanyo uses that gigabyte as a springboard to give the phone as much multimedia juice as possible.'
'as today's phones are so slim and slender in comparison.'
'Don't get me wrong - at roughly twice the thickness of your standard "slim phone," this handset bulges noticeably in the pocket of all but the baggiest pants. '
'The Nokia N70 Symbian based smart phone is a tri-band GSM (900/1800/1900Mhz) and 3G UMTS compatible device, and features a 2.0 megapixel camera on the back'
'The phone makes its first picture in 4.4 s - a bit far from ideal, not to say a disappointing performance'
'PC Software supplied is very flaky; no more than the bare minimum to get things struggling along'
'Users are certain to appreciate the adjustable brightness which ranges from pitiful to torching, and an ambient light sensor provides the finishing touch.'
'removable 1100 mAh Lithium Ion battery is rated for 200 minutes talk time or 180 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity.'
'As is typical of modern flipphones it has a color internal 76 x 220 pixel TFT display capable of displaying 11 lines of text as well as an external caller ID display.'
