Most of the websites that you see on google about this phone talks positive about this phone. Not only that, its creates such an exaggeration which makes people believe that this is "THE PHONE" given its light weight, touch, etc. To tell you the truth, its just another normal basic mobile phone and is no better than other mobiles in the market. To tell you very frankly, this phone is a bit disappointing. Having used a nokia touch model earlier, Modu is very unfriendly.
So - you may ask - "Why the hell did you get this phone if you knew these features?"
Well - this is the only phone i could discover after hours and hours of internet searching and that was meeting my requirements. And I didn't have any complex requirement to start with - I was looking for a mobile which had i) no camera & ii) Internet. Simple 2 requirements isn't it? And why did i have this unique requirement? My official constraints prevent me from carrying a camera mobile and I needed internet to keep myself occupied during the boring 90 mins journey back home.
Let me try to list down the advantages and disadvantages of this phone.
Advantages:
1. Only phone in Indian market (probably world market) that has no-camera (camera can be detached) but has internet feature. And it comes with a touch screen.
2. Audio quality is good for songs
3. It has a camera but can be detached from the phone.
4. Very cheap for the features built on it - i got it for Rs.4500.
5. Very compact when camera is detached
Disadvantages:
1. Only 1 application can be operational at a time. If you are listening to a song and you get a message in between, you will need to close your message window to resume the song. Now - that is a horrible feature to have and I truly hate it.
2. In built browser is not good. I tried to download opera but it is very slow.
3. Battery is very weak - needs recharging frequently
4. I tried to download jar but is doesn't download - i install jar by downloading it to PC and copying it through USB cable.
5. No groups available in contacts. If i need to send the same message to multiple people, i need to mark them one by one. The horrible part is that there is no search feature and i have to scroll to search for each contact.
6. The headset and charger needs to be placed in the same socket, so both cant be done at the same time.
7. Auto tuning on FM frequency doesn't work well.
8. Facebook and Twitter cookies doesn't work well. It frequently asks me to login.
9. If i try to open a new page from an exising page, the phone hangs and restarts itself.
10. THE MOST HORRIBLE FEATURE OF ALL - If you are typing a message and realise that there is a spelling mistake in your first line, you have to erase the message by hitting backspace and then rewrite from the point you corrected your mistake. The cursor cant be placed at an earlier line directly to correct your mistake. I usually tend to refrain from using unparliamentary language, but i cant resist in this case.
11. There are many more irritating features of this phone, but i'm stopping here.
Verdict
Pls check for more other options rather to settle for this phone. I'm suffering.
