Which Palm does of course is a good value. The most important is synchronization between operating system with hardware. For example, in creation process of operating system, the people at R&D (Research & Development) will think twice in making an OS.

In the result, peripheral performance will become far better. Hence didn't surprise when many Palm consumers which before is only ordinary user becomes fans and joints with Palm community. One of the reasons is its use which easier compared to another smartphone OS.

But, at some new products, the producer is prefer to holds mutually Microsoft to planted Windows Mobile in some Palm devices, especially Treo. Like at Palm Treo 750v. This product is first Palm device which operating with Windows Mobile OS. Henceforth, Treo 75x series (750v and 750) always present with WM label. But for the Palm OS fans, especially which already love the Treo 75x series thus thinks twice to buy the peripheral.

Hence present Palm Treo 755p. From the appearance, only a few difference with 750. The difference is only looks at softkey buttons only. But in the inside, many features are improved. Surely the fans which long to wait of Treo 75x in Palm OS version is will not disappointed. The new thing at 755p for example is pixel amounts at touchscreen which boosted up to become 320x320 pixel. Moreover, the processor now applies 312 MHz Intel Xscale.

Unfortunately, 755p is lack of voice dialing feature. The information we have, at 755p which run in Sprint network is equipped with trial version application of Nuance's Voice Control.

If you like to travel, 755p is also equipped with Google Maps. This smarthphone have 60 MB for internal capacities, and for the external, there is a miniSD slot (4 GB).

Camera frame is so steady because made from aluminum material and wrapped with magnesium alloy. Buttons at camera is also equipped with panel from rubber material as protector from aqueous vapor, dew and also wet air.

But not all is good news. There is a problem with leyns ring compatibility. Remember that Sony is new comer in SLR camera arena. Sony Alpha A700 body can be attached by lens with Minolta type A mounting.

When testing Sony Alpha A700, we get photo record character which having high relative contrast, but can maintain detail / texture in highlight part. Best record detail that we got is at low contrast setting, which combined with low ISO/ASA and RAW format. We are provides with facility in arranging contrast level and also color saturation.

Big enough CMOS light sensor measure is very effective when we try to make a photo in dark condition and without flash lamp. At ISO 1600, photo result is great enough.

Difference of detail record quality is significant enough between JPEG and RAW format. Sharpness, texture or detail is recorded nice at RAW file, but not so good at JPEG format.

Under the bright sunlight lighting, Sony Alpha A700 gives natural color, with red and blue color uppermost saturation. Meanwhile, below lamp lighting, without flash light, and white balance auto setting, photo result tends to having warmness nuance (red). Moreover, every level of light compensation will give different color temperature highlighting.

We choose to apply Adobe RGB color profile because RAW file conversion result is best to get if applies Adobe Camera Raw software. Besides Adobe Camera Raw, RAW file conversion program figured in is Sony Image Data Converter SR version 2.

This camera provides flash lamp and addition flash lamp hotshoe. But its type is not universal, so that not compatible with third party flash lamp. This thing of course lessens flexibility.

Sony Alpha A700 is good enough to fulfilling serious photographer and professional requirement which requiring detail and color record quality.

Canon EOS-1D Mark III: Fastest D-SLR Camera

N82 is not a Nokia first phone which carrying 5 MP camera, before there are N95. But N95 was not majored as a product which focusing in camera phone class, but multimedia. And even photo quality of N95 can be said very good, do not mean N82 camera facility similar to N95. There are some changes done by Nokia to increase the quality of camera in N82.

N82 has candybar design with futuristic touch. Aluminum material choice in front and plastic at back strengthens this thing. If it look in a flash, N82 body has shapes which similar to N77. I surprise enough with this phone weight, even its body big but light on-hand.

From design side, N82 is focus at its camera facility. You can see it from its buttons like navigation, softkeys and alphanumeric, all made to supports the comfort when using camera. While for phone and messaging activity, N82 is not so great.

N82 provides various features to enjoy. From entertainment feature, like camera, game, FM radio, music and video player to serious feature, like messaging, WiFi, HSDPA, GPS and office document viewer, all in once in this phone.

About GPS feature, Nokia has plant two navigation technologies at the same time in N82 that is bases on satellite GPS and A-GPS with bases on satellite navigation system and operator service.

N82 also has TV out facility, motion sensor (applicable for some menus only), USB micro slot and 3,5 mm jack audio. For operating system N82 carries Symbian 9.2, S60 v3.1. All N82 feature performance will be supported by ARM11 332 MHz processor with ROM 256 MB and RAM 128 MB memory. For the storage is provided internal memory 90 MB and MicroSD card slot.

Like I have mentioned above, about the design, N82 is more suitable when applied in camera mode. At landscape position the button location is so easy to reach by hand. Including it navigation and softkeys button.

At test, I do not make manual setting, all in automatic setting, including the arrangement of white balance and ISO. The result is so great, picture is come up beautifully. Generally, the photo result is similar with photo result of N95. The presence of Xenon flash lamp is increases the photo quality in low light condition. This flash lamp is not focused in one points, but spreading. In the result, overall detail of photo color is seen proportional.
Presence of N82 is not merely as candybar version of N95. Nokia serious to placing N82 as real camera phone by doing some developments which proven can boost this camera phone ability.

N82 greatness is limited in camera only. With technology like HSDPA, WiFi and GPS, N82 is most complete camera phone in its class.

Philips 9@9w xenium Review: Durable Battery at Multimedia Phone

This Sony Ericsson clamshell phone had simple design which but still eye-catching. Different from years before, Sony Ericsson didn't play again with circle antenna in its clamshell phone.

What are become sells value from this phone display side is the existence of black list in the middle of body which is functioning as place of four indicator icons which will blaze if there are a message, phone call, missed call and activates of silent mode.

Moreover, there is also available a GPRS, so for internet browsing and download can be done. True tone or wallpaper can be search easily to enhance this phone contents. This phone screen specification itself only CSTN 65.000 colors.

With the existence of Java MIDP, we can also downloading game or Java application. But don’t forget about limited memory capacity. Transfer your photo to PC. So that your phone still has enough memory.

For clamshell phone in cheap class, this Sony Ericsson Z320i can be the good choice. Its simple design but nice perhaps more exceeded as sell value compared to its standard feature. Usage of indicator icon as gimmick and at the same time as cosmetic also more and more strengthens this phone sell value. Cheap price, good looking and famous brand become good point to attract the “practical user” which only uses a phone to make a call and SMS only.
