Philips W920 Review
Score: 46.8 / 100Philips W920 is a decent cellphone, counting with a fast processing unit speeding at 1000 MHz, a 5 megapixels back facing camera and a medium 4.3" touch-screen. Is that all? Not at all, it's just the introduction of a detailed review.
In this case, Philips didn't care about the weight at all, leaving it live with a weight of 6.35 oz. This phone is quite thick for current standards, with a thickness of 0.51 inches.
Philips equipped the Philips W920 with a very good 4.3" display, and a resolution of 800 x 480 , which makes all photos and movies look very good. This display uses TFT capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch for gestures like pinch and zoom.
Philips decided to build this phone with a good performance 1000 megahertz processing unit, bundled in the Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 QSD8250 chip and 512 MB of RAM. This phone counts with a 184,32 MB internal storage memory, a low quantity that may be adequate for some basic users considering it also has a slot for SD memory cards to store photographs and videos and even some apps and games that allow being installed in the external memory.
The Philips W920 has wi-fi connectivity (and it can be shared with other devices acting as a wireless router) and fast 3G connectivity, using HSDPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The Philips W920 uses a SIM card to use GSM services.
The Philips W920 is equipped with only a 5 megapixels back facing camera. It is capable of shooting videos in VGA 640x480. This camera also features flash.
This phone features a medium 1280 mAh Li-Ion removable battery that provides this device a quite short battery life. Philips says this device has a 400 hs stand by time and a 12 hours talk time.
This phone also includes a few useful features like Bluetooth and GPS Localization, and Accelerometer.
