GSMArena feature lab: Enter new goodies

05 October 2007
We finally had a chance to put some time into developing a handful of new features for our site, so with the hot summer behind us, we rolled up our sleeves to shape several novelties that we’ve been reflecting on lately. We bet you’ll be...

      Horns and piezos can be loud but I wouldn't want one in my phone. This test I'm afraid may be bit too simplistic.

        what? 5800 is just good??..and 3120c and 6500c are louder than it by just 1 speaker.the test is totally waste of time.5800 should get at least 73-76.

            Hey guys thanks a lot for you're reviews!
            Very professional but there are some aspects in testing that don't help me in seeing exactly what it looks like on the phone. I mean specs of the display for example are a bit missleading for example the Samsung Galaxy Mini display on paper sounds good but in reality it's useless. Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini on paper sounds bad but in reality it's very decent.

            In some reviews you include photos of the display in the dark those photos are quite handy in seeing the true quality of the display.

            Another thing worth mentioning it the earpiece volume.
            Would be great to include some information.

            An last a test about the operating system , about how stable is the phone under stress and heavy usage and real battery stats.

            Thank you and I know it's hard to expose all of the elements of a phone to the viewer!

              Hi GSMArena, The test is much helpful for users, Thanks a lot. Moreover, I wonder if you can add one more test to measure the voice loudness came out from the ear piece of the cellphone. Thanks in advance.

                Hey, this is a site which really really helps people know more about mobile and help them to buy a perfect good mobile by pointing out on pros and cons of all devices. and the addons you have done really helps a lot, because after buying the phone when we come to know that the phone doesn't ring enough it will be no use that we bought it already, but your workouts really helps us. Thank you

                    Hey Guys, Thankyou so much for your efforts. I actually needed someone like you who can give all the features and sound/camera quality check before I go out to update my mobile. And I am sure there will be much more like me. I am better equipped now-Thanks a ton to you. God bless.

                            Your figures for signal to noise ratio and dynamic range are very useful but, as might be expected, they are similar, and don't indicate the actual maximum undistorted volume that may be obtained from a phone/player. I have seen mentioned in your reviews that a phone might play loud through the headphones, but a figure is not given for that. I think this would be useful. Do you?

                                    Well if u say N8 speaker phone is very good, while the X6 is Only "Good"
                                    does it mean that N8 is louder " while playing songs or ringing" than the X6 "which i had and wasn't satisfied " ??

                                        Thanks a lot for the added test for the reviews though the results might come out quite late but that does not bother us youths as this helps us make the right choices not just going after names although I am a proud SE fan and hope to remain that although the company most times now delays and does not meet our expectations in some devices. Thanks for you extra efforts keep up the good work. In any way I can assist I would gladly do that.
                                        From the reviews of users (those who have actually used the devices) can you come up with a summary after about six month of the phones release to the market for non-contract phones I guess we users might like that too although that would take quite a lot of time to organise. Thanks all the same for all that you guys are doing, GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
