Fashion and environmental protection +WM6.5 straight keyboard Sony Ericsson M 1i evaluation

IT 168 Evaluation With the continuous maturity of people's awareness of environmental protection, many manufacturers have introduced environmentally-friendly mobile phones to show their commitment to environmental protection and pollution reduction. Sony Ericsson also recently launched the environmental protection series GreenHeart, and took the lead in releasing C90 1 and Knight to show its environmental protection stance. As? Green heart? Sony Ericsson M 1i, the first intelligent machine in this series, has a fashionable appearance, and the Windows Mobile 6.5.3 operating system has injected strong business features into it.

Sony Ericsson has an indissoluble bond with Windows Mobile. Although Sony Ericsson's large-size models have not made great achievements, the direct-screen models for business users seem to be a good breakthrough. So Sony Ericsson took out the M 1i model, which is a straight screen model with a 2.4-inch screen. Corresponding to Windows Mobile 6.5.3 operating system, the key is to increase selling points. Sony Ericsson dubbed this model as an environmentally friendly model.

This fashionable and mainstream mobile phone will attract young white-collar workers. Sony Ericsson M 1i will be equipped with a 2.4-inch QVGA resolution touch screen and a built-in 3.2 megapixel camera, but it does not support autofocus, which is disappointing. M 1i adopts QWERT keyboard, and the appearance of standard business machine is very popular among white-collar workers. The back is designed with the fuselage curve used by Sony Ericsson, which makes it feel better and better. The tail of the fuselage is specially anti-slip, and the overall grip of the mobile phone is excellent.

In other words, from U 1, Sony Ericsson seems to have a little preference for streamlined design. For example, the sleek U5 is a masterpiece under the excellent design skills of Sony Ericsson. On M 1i, the simple straight streamline design is not only full of trendy feeling, but also conforms to the boundary of straight edge, with softness in the middle and quite good feel. Sony Ericsson M 1i is available in black and white. Bian Xiao personally feels that white is more suitable for female friends and black is more stable, which reveals rich business characteristics and is more suitable for fashionable business men.

Although it is not luxurious in hardware specifications, its exquisite design, the first Windows Mobile 6.5.3 operating system and unique functional features have attracted wide attention after its release. Next, we will take a look at the characteristics of this environmentally-friendly business smartphone that has obtained green certification through real machine analysis.

Low carbon life, pure fashion, Sony Ericsson M 1i design.

It is worth mentioning that although you may be a little disappointed with the 2.4-inch QVGA resolution 65K color screen, thanks to the new features of Windows Mobile 6.5.3 operating system, this phone not only supports handwriting and touch, but also provides multi-touch function, making it easier to browse pictures or enlarge web pages. Although you may think that multi-touch on the 2.4-inch QVGA resolution screen is not practical, it can at least add more fun and highlights to the machine.

Although different operating systems are adopted, the full keyboard design inevitably makes people compare it with BlackBerry 9000. But at least in terms of volume, Sony Ericsson M 1i has 1 17? 60? The body size of 12.45mm and the weight of 130g are similar to those of Blackberry 9000.

Looking down the screen, it is the full keyboard QWERT of M1I. QWERT full keyboard, and the key position of the letter keypad is high, which also gives us a relatively independent feeling. The feel is also excellent, and the right buttons can give us a more comfortable input experience. Because the key is higher, it is easier to distinguish the position of the key when inputting, which is more suitable for users who like to type blindly with their mobile phones.

Turning to the back, you can see the streamlined arc design, with the matte material, and with the help of unique radians and curves, it reflects the unusual style and characteristics, giving people a refreshing feeling. Although it looks simple, if you think about it carefully, isn't the simple design just in line with the concept of environmental protection? There are horizontal stripes on the bottom and top of the back, which effectively prevents the hand from slipping due to the frosted design of the back, which is very intimate.

It is worth mentioning that although it is a frosted back cover with engineering plastic texture, it also has a certain weight in your hand, so the whole machine will have a certain feel in your hand and will not feel light. The most conspicuous LOGO on the back is Sony Ericsson.

However, perhaps out of concern for business applications and market positioning, Sony Ericsson did not pay more attention to the built-in camera this time. The equipped camera is only 3.2 million pixels, and lacks LED flashing and autofocus functions, which can only meet some simple shooting needs. After all, in the field of smart phones, Sony Ericsson also provides an infinite series of entertainment products such as U 1 and U5 that focus on multimedia expression for users to choose from.

Humanized design is also the main reason why many users like Sony Ericsson products. We can also appreciate the details of this m1I. On the top of the phone, we saw the common power button of Windows Mobile and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Does the standardized interface also conform to this mobile phone? Green heart? The concept of environmental protection.

A glance at the side, simple design, no extra buttons, everything, can avoid the user's wrong press in the process of use. The right side of the fuselage is equipped with a volume adjustment button, and the left side is equipped with a Micro USB interface. It is not the traditional Sony Ericsson's own dedicated interface that improves the general performance of M 1i to some extent.

Because the operating system of Windows Mobile 6.5.3 is adopted, the stylus is also a necessary device. Sony Ericsson M 1i arranged the stylus in the upper left corner of the back of the mobile phone, but it did not adopt telescopic design, which brought a little limit to the length of the stylus.

Different from previous Windows phones, Sony Ericsson M 1i designed a special? Slide view? The shortcut key replaces the usual start shortcut key. ? Slide view? Shortcut keys can quickly enter information, calendar, media, panel and other functions, and the content can be set by yourself, which is really practical.

The battery cover of Sony Ericsson M 1i is quite easy to open, just press the back cover and push it to the bottom. As a well-designed environmentally-friendly mobile phone, it can be seen that the designer has done thoughtful and meticulous design in many aspects of Sony Ericsson M 1i, and made a lot of considerations for users, but there are still some lame problems after the real use.

When we open the back cover, we will find that the battery compartment design of Sony Ericsson M 1i is very simple, and a large part of the area is equipped with 1500mA lithium battery, which has become a highlight of the machine. A Micro SD card expansion slot is provided on the left side of the battery compartment, which can support the capacity expansion of 16GB at most, and can be hot-swapped without turning off the battery.

I don't know if it's because business phones love Windows Mobile. M 1i is the first time that Sony Ericsson has applied Windows Mobile 6.5 system to environmentally friendly mobile phones after classic mobile phones such as X 1 and X2. Although the Windows Mobile 6.5 system gives people a complicated feeling, this M 1i still has some gratifying changes. In addition to retaining the classic desktop of Windows Mobile 6.5, it also supports interface design and multiple choices.

The recent Windows Mobile system is a bit declining. It seems that Microsoft is betting that Windows Phone7 still hides half of her face behind her guitar. Classic standby page and honeycomb menu chart are eye-catching signs of Windows Mobile6.5.

In addition to the beautiful desktop, SlideView is also a major feature of Sony Ericsson M1I. The interface of SlideView and Sony PSP is very similar, which can be said to be a quite convenient control panel. Users can easily master personal files such as information, calls, photos, videos and songs. You know, the interface of Windows Mobile6.5 Professional is a bit too big, so it is really more convenient to supplement it with SlideView.

The SMS and telephone functions of Sony Ericsson M 1i are basically the same as those of other WM phones. SMS supports handwriting and keyboard input, and the handwriting recognition rate is good. But personally, I think that with the physical keyboard design, I can hardly use handwriting operation; But for users of my parents' age, handwriting is still very practical.

Business and entertainment balance WM series is deeply branded.

Now let's talk about entertainment functions. Sony Ericsson is trying to balance business and entertainment, and the entertainment performance of M 1i is still good. The music function has hardly changed on the basis of Windows Mobile system, but the playing interface looks much better, but obviously there are also many shortcomings.

Photography evaluation

In terms of taking photos, Sony Ericsson M 1i has a 3.2-megapixel camera lens on the back of the mobile phone, but it is a pity to lack the LED flash, and we have not found the shortcut key for taking photos on the side of the fuselage, which also brings inconvenience to taking photos on the mobile phone. We can only take pictures through the confirmation button or touch screen.

With the configuration of 3.2 megapixel camera and +Windows Mobile6.5, Sony Ericsson equipped M 1500 mAh lithium-ion battery for M 1i, which may be the reason for the small screen of the large battery. Sony Ericsson M 1i really saves electricity than expected. This battery capacity can meet our daily use. For business people and players who frequently use Internet applications every day, Bian Xiao still suggests that you prepare an extra battery just in case.

Evaluation summary

Sony Ericsson focuses on the GreenHeart series new machine M 1i with the concept of environmental protection. Although the concept of environmental protection cannot arouse excessive public interest, for the thumb family, attention should be paid to the design of the straight keyboard +Windows Mobile. M 1i, as an environmentally friendly business mobile phone, adopts the intelligent operating system of Windows Mobile 6.5, and its performance is quite good. Although there is a slight lack of hardware configuration, the running ability is still good. Its advantages in appearance are better than other compatriots. Its appearance is simple, fashionable and elegant, and its exquisite production technology makes it shine. However, only the 2.4-inch screen with ordinary color has become a serious injury to M1I. If Sony Ericsson can match this mobile phone with a reasonable price, I believe it will shine in sales.
