Some things in life just can’t be explained. Bush’s presidency… Ryan Seacrest’s popularity… And the Philips X800. Sure it’s an iPhone designer impostor but plenty of manufacturers are going that route. The spec read out on this puppy is what confounds the mind and warrants a viciously loud “WTF!?”
- General: 2G Network GSM 900 / 1800 / 1900
- Display: Type TFT touchscreen, 256K colors
- Size: 240 x 400 pixels (Wide QVGA), 2.9 inches
- Data: GPRS Class 10 (4+1/3+2 slots), 32 - 48 kbps
- HSCSD: No
- EDGE: No
- 3G: No
- WLAN: No
- Bluetooth: v2.0 with A2DP
Ok, so GSM 850 is missing but we’re used to that. Ok, the touchscreen display is nice and big but only supports 256K colors. All that is WTF-able but it can be worked through. The real marvel here is the connectivity. No WLAN, no 3G and no EDGE! That’s right people, this sweet-looking handset is limited to GPRS Class 10 data with a whopping ~ 48 kbps cap. We also notice that a flash for the camera has been omitted, but perhaps Philips presumed no one would notice thanks to the rest of the specs. Supposedly there is a higher-end Xenium X-Connect model in the works that will resolve many of the connectivity issues facing the X800. If that’s the case, why even bother with this model? The look is high-end but the specs are emerging market; someone might just get fired over this.
