O2 Jet phone with long battery life    [ 10-10-2006 09:43 ]

Author: Verа Kozlova     Translation by: Rytchkova Anja     

The British operator O2 has released a mobile phone called O2 Jet. It doesn’t have a camera or an MP3-player (however you can set MP3 melodies for incoming calls). It’s quite a simple model, however it features long battery life on a single charge.

First of all, O2 Jet is meant for businessmen who need to talk much on the phone (the phone lasts for 9.9 hours in talk mode and over 540 hours standby).

The phone works in GSM (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) networks and supports GPRS and no 3G. Its LCD displays up to 65K colors. The only feature untypical for simple handsets is the support of Bluetooth and e-mail (POP3 and IMAP4) – the model is positioned as the business phone. Measuring 117x47x20 mm it weighs 121 g.
