Design
At first, the 1600 looks like a mild-mannered candybar phone. Looks can be deceiving, though. The 96 x 68 pixel display, which features support for 65,636 colors, gives the user a crystal clear screen, which makes it easy to type text messages and place calls. An internal antenna means there’s nothing to snag in your pocket. The simplified menu and navigation with 4-way scroll key and easy-to-use key pad make for easier phone calls and text messaging.
Calling Features
The 1600’s address book can store multiple phone numbers, as well as physical and email addresses. Meanwhile, the phone’s built-in speakerphone makes it easy to talk without having the phone to your ear. Polyphonic ringtones are included, as is a vibrating alert. Ringer IDs let you assign specific ringtones to particular callers. Name-based voice recognition dialing lets you dial numbers with the sound of your voice.
Messaging, Internet and Tools
The 1600 is a natural mobile messaging companion with support for text and picture messaging. T9 text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit– a plus for mobile email and text messaging users.
Imaging and Entertainment
The 1600 is designed for flexible mobile fun. Full color screen savers can be set up to fit your personality. And don’t forget that the 1600 comes with three of the following games: Snake Xenzia, Dice, Cricket Cup, Pocket Carrom, Soccer League, Adventure Quiz, Rapid Roll (selection is area dependent).
