Sharp 903 Specifications

By Sandra Vogel, CNET.co.uk on 07/11/2005

More Vodafone reviews , RRP: AU$1199.00

The good:

  • Great camera
  • Superb screen
  • Easy to use
  • MiniSD cards are easy to swap, thanks to side-mounted slot

The bad:

  • Large and heavy
  • Music quality is poor
  • Too little internal and bundled miniSD memory

The bottomline:

If you think black is back, this is a handset to admire. The 3.2-megapixel camera is impressive, ditto the screen, but beware the ropey music delivery and proprietary headphone connector if you're a music fan.

      While the 6210 is solidly built and features fast performance, the lack of a lifetime subscription to turn-by-turn navigation robs the Navigator of what should make it unique in the market.

      There's nothing technically wrong with RAZR2 V9 Ferrari Special Edition but if you want to Ferrari-fie your phone there are cheaper and better ways of doing it. For free.

      It's hard to knock a phone that has all the current popular technologies, but it would have still been great for Nokia to consider new technologies for this latest N-Series range, particularly a media sharing networking protocol.

      Take out the Next G reception and you end up with a low quality handset at a mid-range price point. Still, it's great to see another blue tick phone for our friends in the bush to consider.

      While we like the E71 better, the E66 is a great smartphone with class leading features. If you want the functionality of a business phone without the bulk of a PDA form factor, the E66 is the phone you've been looking for.
