Nokia 112 can rightfully be considered a worthy continuation of the 1100 model of the same manufacturer. Both of these devices are equipped with a sufficiently capacious battery, and this allows them to work on one battery charge for up to two weeks. According to this parameter, these mobile phones have practically no competitors.
Contents of delivery
The Nokia 112 is quite familiar. It consists of such accessories and components:
Certificate of conformity.
Warranty card.
User's manual.
The mobile phone itself.
Battery with a capacity of 1400 mA / h.
Wired stereo headset.
Charger with a standard round pin.
A memory card, case and protective film are not in the boxed version of this gadget. They will have to be bought separately. But the microUSB format interface cord will not be needed at all by the owners of such a device: the phone does not have such a port.
Graphics, camera and hardware
It should be noted right away that the manufacturer itself is delicately silent about the type of chip used in this device. Based on this, only one conclusion can be drawn: this is a chip with a minimum level of functionality and low performance. The screen is based on a TFT matrix with a nominal resolution of 128x160, and its diagonal is 1.8 inches. Of course, for watching movies and reading books this will be clearly not enough. But for surfing sites or social services such a diagonal is quite enough. It is difficult to say what the Finnish developers were guided by when they installed a camera with a sensitive element of only 0.3 megapixels in this phone. In general, you can take photos and videos with it, but their quality will be far from ideal.
Memory
A small amount of memory is integrated in the Nokia 112. Reviews of the owners of the device indicate this significant drawback. The capacity of the built-in drive is only 16 MB. This is enough only for the stable operation of the device itself. But for storing music, installing toys and other important applications, this device must be equipped with an external memory card. The maximum amount of such information storage in this case can be 32 GB, and it is quite enough to solve any problems. The only thing to keep in mind is that you will have to buy such a drive separately and at an additional cost.
Appearance and ergonomics
The classic all-in-one with push-button input is Nokia 112. Today its price is only $ 50. As expected, in the upper part of the keyboard of such an apparatus there are two function keys, between which there is a joystick. The lower left key has dual functionality. This is a "+", this is a quick switch between SIM cards. It is enough to clamp it, and this operation will be performed very quickly. All connectors are displayed on the upper rib: a 3.5 mm audio port and a socket for charging the battery. The microphone in this case is displayed on the left edge. On the back of the smartphone is a camera and a loud speaker. The slots of the first SIM card and flash drive are located under the battery. They can be replaced only when the device is completely turned off. But with the second SIM card, such a problem should not arise, since it can be replaced while the phone is working. Her slot is located on the left edge of the mobile phone.
Battery and Gadget Autonomy
The impressive battery capacity of the Nokia 112. It has a capacity of 1400 mA / h. One charge, as noted earlier, is enough for 2 weeks of active use of this unit. A key factor that provides this kind of autonomy is the small screen. The rest of the filling in this device is balanced and has low power consumption, which, combined with such a capacious battery, provides a high degree of autonomy.
BY
The proprietary operating system is installed in the Nokia 112. The firmware indicates a modification to the Series S40 OS. Its key feature is that you can install additional software based on JAVA on such a device. Also, initially social clients and a proprietary browser from Nokia were installed on the phone, which optimizes traffic and significantly reduces the amount of information transmitted.
Information exchange
A good set of interfaces for Nokia 112. The characteristics in this regard for this mobile phone are as follows:
Full support for FSM networks. The device successfully transmits information in the "ZhPRS" and "EJ" formats. The maximum data transfer rate is about 500 kbps. Given the optimization of the browser, this allows you to download and view sites with any load.
3.5 mm audio jack allows you to connect external speakers to the phone. With their help, this device can be easily and simply turned into an MP3 player or portable radio.
To exchange information with similar devices, you can use bluetooth. There is also the opportunity to turn this gadget into a mobile Internet access point with its help.
To connect to a PC, you can use only bluetooth. Other methods of exchanging data with a PC are not supported by this phone.
Reviews of the owners of the device
Now about the practical experience of using Nokia 112. The reviews of the owners of this device highlight its strengths:
But he has the following disadvantages:
Very weak camera. It is clearly not enough to get high-quality photos and videos.
The case is painted with paint, which is then erased, and the appearance of the device deteriorates.
Small amount of internal memory.
Summary
The most strength of Nokia 112 is autonomy. It simply does not have analogues that could function for 2 weeks on a single battery charge and at the same time cost only $ 50. The rest is a fairly modest device. VZHA-camera, a small amount of integrated memory and coloring of the case - these are its main disadvantages. It is on the example of this mobile phone that it becomes clear why this Finnish manufacturer is in a deplorable state. Well, what prevented developers from increasing memory and installing a better camera? Well, a mobile phone would have become a little more expensive, but its attractiveness in the eyes of a potential buyer would have grown significantly. And so - this is an excellent dialer with a high degree of autonomy and a color screen. For something more, she simply does not pull.
