| NEC e228 Mobile Phone Set |
As with the e313, the e228 looks much better in the flesh than it does in our photo here. Physically it's quite a lot less bulky than the e313, although it weighs virtually the same, and it has much more polished styling than the e313's Eastern-bloc appearance.
The e228 shares the same screen as the e313, and it's an excellent 65,000 colour LCD display with an outstanding 220 x 176 pixels.
The e228 features 2 separate cameras - one mounted in the front panel, the other in the back panel. The camera quality is the same as the e313.
The addition of a speakerphone in the e228 is very welcome, making video calling so much easier.
Users in the UK may not be very familiar with NEC as a mobile phone manufacturer, but overseas NEC has years of experience in this arena, especially as a manufacturer of the hi-tech i-mode phones in Japan.
The main issue with this phone, as with all 3G phones is the battery life - expect to charge the phone every couple of days, or daily if you make much use of the video calling feature.
Features of the NEC e228 include
Supports all 3's video mobile services: video calling, video messaging & download video clips
2 video cameras for video calling, recording short videos and taking photos (VGA resolution - 640 x 480 pixels, 2x digital zoom)
