It falters in the camera, but otherwise, it is a fairly solvent device. For example, the multimedia section is very complete and the data sheet ranges from specific applications for social networking and instant messaging, a pedometer and altimeter. At the moment there are no quality images of the product, but we will publish them as soon as Samsung decides to disseminate them.
Display and connections
The Samsung B2710 has a small two-inch TFT screen, QVGA resolution (240 x 320 inches) and a depth of 256,000 colors. It has been treated to resist scratches. The terminal has a total size of 104.4 x 49.9 x 18.6 mm and a weight of 115 grams. The keyboard is alphanumeric. It has a square trackpad and four direct access keys to various functions. The two lower ones are dedicated to receiving, making, rejecting or ending calls. The superiors, to left and right, activate the applications located in the same position on the panel.
It operates on the 2G GSM frequency at 850, 900, 1,800 and 1,900 MHz. In addition, it is able to surf the broadband Internet thanks to the 3G UMTS protocol at 900 and 2,100 MHz. The data transfer speed is 384 kbps and offers WAP and xHTML support. In return, it lacks WLAN, so you will not be able to access WiFi networks. A disappointment because many of them are free, or have a low price, in shops, public enclaves, and so on. Class 10 GPRS and EDGE can be added thanks to a 32 multi-slot.
It comes with Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP profile, which transmits audio in stereo. The Bluetooth is used to connect the phone with other devices having the same turn wireless standard. For example, hands-free kits or accessories such as wireless headphones. Regarding connectors physical, is equipped with a USB 1.1 port version.
Camera and multimedia
The camera, as we indicated at the beginning of the post, is one of the less powerful elements of Samsung B2710. Poverty does not reach his partner Samsung ? Smiley, but it is clear that with a sensor only two megapixels (1,600 x 1,200 pixels) results will not provide a good quality. It also shoots video with QVGA resolution and at 15 frames per second.
As for file playback, it is compatible with MP3, WAV, eAAC + and Windows Media Audio (WMA) audio formats and with MP4 and H.263 video formats. Sound is enhanced thanks to Samsung's exclusive Digital Natural Sound Engine (DNSe) technology and noise cancellation system. Tune in to FM radio with RDS and have JAVA MIDP 2.0 support. It includes some games and new titles can be downloaded online. At the moment its internal storage has not been released. It is known, however, that it will be expandable using microSD memory cards, although the data of what the maximum limit will be is missing.
Battery and extras
The usual social networks and instant messengers will have at their disposal specific applications for Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo! Messenger and Google Talk. It allows you to check and send emails, multimedia messages (MMS) and sign up for RSS Reader, a news service in real time. As for the extras own a mobile off - road, we found a flashlight, a timer, a digital compass, a pedometer and altimeter. The pedometer counts the number of steps of the user and the altimeter, as its name suggests, measures the height with respect to sea level.
The battery is lithium ion and has a capacity of 1,000 milliamps. The manufacturer has not specified their autonomy. When it goes on sale it will be available in two colors, black and blue.
The best
It meets all the conditions to be a resistant mobile, indicated to take on excursions without worrying too much about it deteriorating. On the other hand, it does not renounce the dimension of entertainment.
It can improve
The battery, a priori, does not seem to give a very long operation. A camera with a higher resolution and WiFi access would also have been appreciated.
