Toshiba K01Impossibly thin for a slider phone (12.9mm) the Toshiba K01 offers a responsive experience with its 1GHz Snapdragon processor. The Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional operating system gives all the compatibility needed and includes Pocket Office for access to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote and PDF files.
The K01 is dominated by a large 4.1 inch AMOLED capacitive touch-screen with a fantastic resolution of 480x800 pixels. Coupled with the accelerometer and slide-out QWERTY keyboard the handset can be turned onto its side and used in landscape mode for easy construction of messages and Internet page viewing via the 3G HSDPA Web browser. Popular messaging formats have been catered for with MMS, email and SMS provided in a chat-like threaded view.
The beauty and power of the Toshiba K01 really comes into focus once the user is mobile. A-GPS support provides guidance and stress free navigation and quad-band roaming ensures you stay connected when overseas. The 3.2 megapixel camera boasts auto-focus and doubles as a video recorder capturing VGA images at 30 frames per second. Images can be stored onto the ample 256MB memory that can be boosted to 32GB with a microSD card. Other notable features include shake control, a 3D user interface, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Facebook / YouTube applications.
The Toshiba K01 is a superb buy that rolls a MP3/MP4 player, camera, mini-laptop, Sat nav and games console all into one tidy package. |
