LG B1200. Mobile phone overview
Review
The dimensions of the phone are small - 80 x 44 x 22.9 mm and weighs 80 grams. The device is available in three colors - blue, red and gray. In all cases, the display is framed by a silver plastic insert to match the color of the keyboard. B1200 should always be carried in a case, otherwise the device quickly loses its presentation. Graphic display new items from LG is equipped with green LED backlight. Up to three lines of text and labels for soft keys are placed on the screen (their role is played by the send and end call keys). In standby mode, the screen displays information about the battery level (3 bars) and network signal (4 bars), date and time, or a screen saver. The font used in this model is quite large, the signs are clearly visible from any distance. The rubber keys are quite hard to press. The designations (applied, by the way, only in English) are clearly visible in bright sunlight, while in the twilight the green backlight only interferes with the perception of information. In complete darkness, only the central row (2, 5, 8, 0) is clearly visible. In the lower end there is an interface connector, to which, in particular, a pedestrian headset, supplied in the kit, is connected; Nearby is the connector for the charger. At the first charge, the device complained about the wrong type of battery, but when the charging was turned on again, the inscription disappeared and did not appear again. The battery is hidden behind the back wall, which does not fit snugly against the case, which creates a feeling of fragility. If you take the phone in your hand and lightly press on the back panel, you will hear a crunch, which you can get rid of by placing a small piece of foam rubber between the cover and the battery. As soon as this gap disappears, the lid stops crunching in the hands. The lithium-ion battery has a capacity of 650 mAh. According to the manufacturer, it can provide up to 150 hours of standby time and up to 2 hours of talk time. In the Moscow Beeline network, the phone worked for 4 days with 6 minutes of calls per day. The time to fully charge the battery is just over an hour and a half. If you leave the phone to charge overnight, then in the morning an attempt to immediately recharge it will not lead to anything: first you need to remove it from charging for 15-20 seconds and only then insert the adapter into a power outlet. Menu I want to say right away that the instructions were not attached to the device issued to me, but in all the samples sold, of course, it is present, and besides, in Russian. At the moment, the localization of the phone leaves much to be desired: the letters in the Russian font are not only different in height, but sometimes they are so small that they are simply lost. The dealership assured me that within two weeks a new firmware will be available, in which the existing problems will be eliminated. You can still use a phone with a Russian menu, but it is very uncomfortable! Russian input B1200 does not support. The menu is organized in a standard way: by pressing the scroll key, you get to the main menu, all items of which are numbered, have their own names and animated icons: for example, in Settings (4) you can see how a boy (maybe a girl) knocks on a bicycle with a hammer. Pictures are made in the style of Japanese cartoons. The sub-items of the main menu are also numbered, which allows you to use quick navigation using number sequences. It works almost everywhere, except for those lists where the number of items exceeds 10. In the same Settings (4 menu item), for example, it is 14, so pressing the scroll key (we get to the menu), and then 4 and 1 will only call volume control, and not point 11. Some submenus (the number of which is initially limited) can be configured for quick access, it is most convenient to do this for profiles. Phone book Designed for 100 entries, SIM card memory is also available. Both types of memory can be used at the same time; One number is assigned to one name. The device supports 5 caller groups, each of which is assigned an individual ring tone. One of the groups can also be given a name (but not during the initial data entry). By the way, a separate key is allocated for the notebook. Messages This menu provides access to work with SMS. The user can write or read a short message, set up broadcast reception. Pre-installed message templates in Russian are divided into 5 categories, the order number of messages is indicated at the top right (for example, 1/10, 2/10). But since there are no more than two templates in each of these categories, the meaning of the inscription at the top is not very clear. Templates in Russian are quite original, for example: "You are the most beautiful woman in the city!". On business trips, maybe it will come in handy (just kidding!). Input in Russian is not supported, templates in Russian are not readable, although they are accepted by all devices (not only phones from LG). Audio Profile Profiles are configured in this menu. The B1200 developers offered 15 polyphonic ring tones (the 8th and 15th melodies are completely the same) to choose from - an 8-voice synthesizer is built into the device. The tempo of the melodies is brought down, so familiar motives sound somewhat unusual. Settings All settings are collected here - as many as 14 points: this is the answer with any key, and the time, and the activation of ANTI-AON (a typical network function). In the same menu you will find display settings, contrast and a welcome text message. The contrast has a wide range of settings, but, unfortunately, not the whole scale works, but only half of it. For the screen, by the way, an interesting function is provided - Wallpaper, but in reality it is just a screen saver - a nice flying saucer with an alien. Strange as it may seem, two alarms (both multiple, they work at the set time daily) are included in the same item Settings - apparently, Nokia has not done without the influence of the company, which places the alarm in this menu, and not in Additional options. Setting the alarm, you must enter the text, why - it is not clear. Challenges The B1200 provides a general list of incoming, outgoing and missed calls for 20 entries with the date and time of the call. The problem is that if you get 20 calls from the same phone within a few minutes, this number will fill the entire list. The same with outgoing calls: when you redial (the line is busy, for example), the number will be added to the list again and again. In the same menu, you can view the duration of all calls, the last call, and turn on the minute signal that will be triggered during a call. Items such as Forwarding, Security, and Network are standard, so they are not of particular interest to us. Additionally The menu provides access to several utilities, in particular the melody editor (15 pre-installed and up to 4 of your own). The calculator in this model is very simple, without any functional frills. The calendar shows the current day and also offers a monthly view. The input of events, it seems, is not provided - at least I could not do it (I acted by analogy with the 200th model). On the screen, the calendar is represented by a very dense set of numbers, which is difficult to navigate - let's face it, not the most successful version of the presentation. World time. Moving on the background of the map of the globe between cities, we look at the local time. User Screensaver. The only available picture of a penguin can be set as the screen saver displayed in idle mode. Games. There are three of them in the phone: Tetris, Miner and Pinch. The first two games are more or less known, the point of the third is to quickly press the buttons corresponding to the holes on the screen from which the animal crawls out. If you have time to press the key while the animal is on the screen, then it will be beaten with a hammer and you will be awarded points. On this list of functionality of the phone can be considered complete. Impressions The communication quality provided by the B1200 can be described as average: one cannot say that the phone catches the network badly, but at the same time it is by no means a champion in this parameter. At the border of two hundred, there are problems typical for all devices from LG: the conversation is interrupted, it is impossible to make a call. If the network is lost in a weak signal zone, re-registration takes a long time: before the phone catches the network again, it may take 2-3 minutes. When the splash screen is activated, the top row of indicators is displayed, including the signal strength. In the event that the phone does not find a network, the signal strength indicator can still show any number of bars up to the maximum, leaving you in a happy ignorance of the true state of affairs. The real proof of the presence of a signal can be the name of the operator displayed on the screen, which can be seen by pressing the end call key. In the tested device, pressing a key showed that the phone was looking for a network - an interesting fact! The volume of the speaker is enough, but there is no margin. During a conversation, extraneous sounds are heard, the speaker makes noise, and in different ways. Adjusting the volume of the speaker during a call is not provided, although sometimes it is simply necessary. The speakerphone function (long press on C) is not very convenient to use because of the same noise in the speaker. The device is average in terms of vibrating alert strength: you can feel the vibration from a holster or from a pocket, and this is the main thing. Melodies are clearly distinguishable at maximum volume, but not in noisy rooms, while in the upper register the speaker starts to choke. The melodies are pleasant, they are mostly well-known pieces of music, however, in the original arrangement and at a slower pace. It was said about localization above: now it does not stand up to criticism - let's see if anything changes in two weeks. It is worth noting that at the moment some menu functions remain non-localized: the date, for example, is still displayed in English (the name of the months).
