August 30 began selling the phone. Reviews I find so far only positive. Is there no Sim-Loka on it? And then he only sold in Germany. By the way, the Korean company,
Feedback
If the device with AMAZON did not buy, I would like to portray, however, still my first impressions.
Why is this device?
I have been besitzte for 2 years with HTC Desire AMOLED display, which slowly arrives at its borders.
I was looking for new skillful phones of the upper middle class or the highest category.
My favoritisierte skillful choice of phones with the state in late August / early September 2012 really disagrees with me.
The reasons:
Galaxy Nexus - heir to the 4th quarter, according to expectations;
Galaxy S3 - plastic is too big for the price;
HTC One S or X - battery, warehouse firmly;
LG P880 HDD 4 - messages about the dust in the display.
From my personal point of view, each of the devices has for the actual price, respectively, a big Handycap.
I expect interesting devices only by the end of 2012 / early in 2013 and until then I am looking for an inexpensive temporary solution.
By the time limited period of payment of 20 € of an online store coupon from 150 € of the purchase price of another seller "forced" me to go in a short time to search for an alternative piece of clever phone technology.
In connection, I was also ready to take deductions and compromises.
I found the Mobistel Cynus T1 for almost € 180 in an online store.
The specifications look very good for the price and although there is no experimental data or tests, I was at risk of buying.
I consider the device as described as a temporary solution and I don’t take it from the beginning in the hope that any Upgrade ICS 4.04 on JB or any other fixation of the bow occurs.
So, now for the first assessment and description.
Packaging and first impression:
Packaging and design is complete in German. The snap-in moves within the smallest of expectations (next to the device and battery, German service guide with about 150 sides, Headset, and a USB plug / Micro USB cable).
Stability and weight:
The device makes a really stable impression and lies with a small weight well in hand. I love it too easily, it's better somewhat more complicated than that. The battery cover firmly dropped in, nothing still squeaks or gives the impression that it worsens the point of view.
Treatment:
The whole mass of the gap is unified, the power key, the loud swing and the quiet swing, as well as (favorably) the descent of the chamber have good pressure centers and also do not rumble.
Weight:
Compared to my woman’s HTC Desire and Sony’s Arc S, it’s naturally really great. Arc S is less than about 0.8 cm in width and height than Cynus T1. The thickness lies this between Desire and Arc S
Optics in general:
My device is black. There is also a white version, the reverse side of which I can not discuss.
For € 180 you can only expect plastic.
It is shiny black with third-party silver contributions, which include the above keys
The battery cover is somewhat exotic and can be described more as shown below. It looks like this, as if printed on it with „Pünktchen-to-raster items“. These are blue turquoise point samples that exist from smaller small points. It sparkles in the illumination between tastelessly, unusually up (from the point of view of my woman) nobly. Well, I can live with it. The public shame, however, do not make themselves with it.
The sound and Quiet swings lie to the left, the power key lies to the right above, to the right below the key for the camera.
At the top, the trunk sleeve is located in the Micro USB, and the headset is attached.
Cynus has a Notification LED that looks green when calls are missed. Without experiencing this, I assume that it should have also been used for messages or messages. Additionally, the LED acts as a status notification of the chest. During the store, it is red and after the end of the charge process, it glows green.
In the lower area of ​​the device, there are 4 air keys (Home, Menu, Back, Search), blue-purple lights.
These air keys respond well and should also be used. ICS is implemented here WITHOUT Navigations display symbols (ГЎla Galaxy Nexus).
Display:
If we arrive at the device display. This is a 4.3 ’’ display with a 800-pixel WVGA resolution of 800 times. Not top - currently, however, not bad.
Be it to yourself around a scratch-resistant glass (gorilla or others). Acts, I can not install. However, at the price I do not consider it.
The display also reflects slightly more than the Arc S display, but comparatively strong, like the Desire.
I would like to designate the display illumination as really high. With solar exposure, the display is much better than the AMOLED Desire display and at the maximum only as dark as Arc S. This really surprised me.
The limitation makes it possible to recognize this in the dark, since in the lower area of ​​the display one sees minimum illumination and offers here uneven illumination for the region of about 3 mm over the entire width. However, it is so insignificant that it does not bother me personally. In general, in daylight, you do not need to see anything from this.
The color image is very balanced after my sensation. Not too bright, to pale or vague. The contrast falls to Arc S and to Desire something, however, is not unusual.
For the sharpness of the display is considered the same. I am very pleased with the quality of the display in any case and see myself as much better than the price as expected.
Android ICS 4.04:
This is in my experience not quite about the "floor" -Android. Other graphics and / or names have some apparatus. A fun Google search, which is referred to as a "scanner." But this is of secondary importance from my point of view. The system itself is pretty Stock-Android. The Play Market, as well as another Google machine, is installed and is also running by everyone.
DUAL SIM Feature:
I find the dual Sim functionality involved in ICS 4.04 successful.
When using Sim cards for both mines, it is not necessary to pay attention to what card Sim wants to use for 3 years.
Sim cards are applied and are configured so only during ICS 4.04 as they would like.
This is regulated in detail, whether and with which SIM_Karte calls, SMS would like to send or use data services.
Alternatively it is asked before each action, with the help of which Sim card the action should take place.
This is practical, since it is also possible to configure both SIM cards accordingly.
Each of the Sim cards are presented in a different color. This makes the distinction simple.
Connectivity:
Getting GSM is still not very good. It matches previous experiences with my HTC Desire and Arc S of my woman. As comparative networks served Vodafone, the company E-Plus and O2.
The speed of HSDPA is somewhat slower despite a very good network supply than with both of the above comparative devices. Mostly in comparison, Gedenksekunde find disadvantages from me more. After this occurring connection / side construction then again very quickly and well.
I can have the same experience through WLAN connections.
GPS needs a long time for the first satellite-constantly. With GPS A it goes faster.
I haven't experienced Bluetooth yet.
Language quality:
Language quality is average. The interlocutors listen to the trend easily quakig, while for the caller the language quality felt good to very good.
The quality of a free representative is really good, if he could also be somewhat only at the maximum. Voices cope with only minimal distortion c. In the direction of those called up, they are also perceived, with only minimal ones, as a completely appreciated quality of distortions.
I still have not experienced language quality and sound quality through the Headset.
Performance:
CPU:
The device has a 1 GHz dual Core processor, the exact name of which and the specification has not yet been established. RAM lies with 512 MB from the lower limit. It will be expressed here during the coming days whether and where it is here in relation to my use becomes short. However, the internal warehouse size is sufficient with a size of 4 gigabytes. MicroSD warehouse cards can be up to 32 gigabytes extra use.
No details are known to me for the graphic core spent on construction.
However, the following Benchmark results suggest a rather weak graphics core.
However, the rest of the Benchmark results are very impressive to me because of the price.
Benchmark items
Quadrant 2584
Antutu in 5392
BenchmarkPi 647
Vellamo at 1242
Sunspider in 2141
Nenamark2 21.7 is somewhat disappointing
Linpack
single thread 37.45
multimillionaire thread 58,73
V8 Benchmark in 1010
Without going into too much detail here, I would argue that the results at the Galaxy Nexus level with ICS lie.
Aggregate system:
The user surface runs very fast and free. There are no device delays or other unusualness due to the use of Android.
Compared to Desire and Arc S, Performance Cynus T1 is clearly headed.
Browser:
Browser - compared to Arc S is not the fastest. Also here I can repeat the experiment in the Connectivity paragraph. It is not clear to me whether it is from networks or from a device, browser or other influences.
Also here is available regardless of the network connection (WLAN or 3G) always to tangible Gedenksekunde.
Arc S is special when navigating quickly during a response, a lateral structure and a ship is led to it on web pages.
Desire has faster response times than Cynus T1, however, significantly slower in the side structure.
Cynus T1 is in the middle here.
When Scrollen catch your eye with Cynus T1 is still sometimes Ruckler. Especially with Scrollen, this clearly lies behind Desire and Arc S. The effect of Nachscroll is very short compared to both comparative devices.
In addition, it was striking that within the web pages no function does not increase or decrease function.
Pinch ton change the image plan or 2 fingers still does not go to increase.
An interesting way these gestures go in photo galleries without any problems.
And, perhaps, the alternative browser responds better here, or I reviewed something during installations. I will further experience these coming days.
Camera & Video:
Here I could experience some more. In my first impression, I would not like to designate fully convincingly reversible 5 MP cameras, however, as.
Foto's:
Redemption slows down 0.5 - 1 sec. and these incredibly bluish pictures stand out in the standard setting.
Here you need to install Farbsättigeung from low to medium in Fotoeinstellungen.
The acuteness of the paintings is also not convincing.
Both LED bulbs along with the camera lens are fun. The power of light emission of both LED's hardly helps even in the dark.
Hardly speaking, 3 simultaneously burning hand lighters make up for example the same action.
Video:
Also here the result is very bluish in the standard and should be corrected accordingly. The video release should have the quality of railways, here in the installations I could not find out still in the tightness of time more details of the installations.
Additional functions:
There are settings for serial paintings and production of panoramas.
Front camera:
The Cynus T1 has a front-facing camera that makes VGA dissolution possible.
There is no pre-installed device for this, however, the corresponding device from the Play-Market functions without problems.
Image quality seemed really good at first glance and detailed. In contrast to the main camera, no colorful prints were recognizable here.
Battery:
The battery has 1800 mAh. In a very short time so far, I naturally experienced a lot and experienced and, therefore, the battery leans faster than normal exhaustion. Then it was necessary to wait a few more cycles of the chest in order to be able to discuss the real terms capable of saying.
From the old feeling with the help of 2 embedded Sim cards (1 of this 3G) and many experience I trust the battery, however, it is free 1 day of the term.
I relate here to my use behavior, in which I check 5 — 10 telephone conversations over a total of 1 hour, 5–10 messages through WhatsApp), all 2 hours of communication (3 message accounts), as well as 45 in the morning and evening min surf the road.
As a comparison: Here stands my Desire 1 - 1 'day.
The following notes and unusual:
- Both the Android keyboard and Touchpal are pre-installed.
- The lower keys of the air are illuminated after I still do not recognize the logic once and once is not. They proceed, as a rule, in 5 seconds without use. Especially in the dark, it is annoying if the ship is still in the display, they want to lead the ship back and because of the lack of lighting "blindly" on a number of air keys it prints. However, then the lighting starts again for 5 seconds. Is it possible and where to undertake the installation, I have not yet learned.
- Where do I get protective display foils here? With the status of a stranger Cynus T1 this becomes fascinating.
- Since yesterday there is a product [...] side to Cynus T1, according to. Serving management in the future if necessary. Upgrade or next software must be located.
- According to the maintenance manual, the upgrade is not OTA, but through the USB cable and the PC should be possible and possible. More details are not provided to the same.
Summary:
Now ICS Dual-Core and dual Sim Smartphone with a display of 4.3 ”for 180 € ring the first time incredibly and wake up authorized to doubt whether it is a matter of shame.
I would be inclined, after a short time, to say that it was not a matter of shame.
BUT:
Get "clever phone packaging", which requires unambiguous compromises.
The weaknesses of the Cynus T1 could be a clear KO criterion for various users to be extremely acceptable, however, for others.
Oral to me, I temporarily compromise. A relatively bad camera is transferred for me, since I was not spoiled either by Desire and I also use it infrequently.
In my first experience, the browser has several deficiencies with which I can live, however, and for which, of course, there are also better alternatives.
I enjoy good processing, unexpectedly good display, almost unverbasteltes ICS with high Performance and dual Sim functionality.
As "smart transition phones," this fills up my advance insignificant expectations anyway.
According to my first assessment, it will also grow to all - for me important - the requirements.
For me, 4 star ratings are correct therefore.
I have improved the review from 3 to 4 stars, since I have found the above solution for a distinct improvement in the bluish quality of the camera.
