Test report and technical data Panasonic EB GD 70
Panasonic EB GD 70 - a real phone.
Positive about Panasonic EB GD 70: ease of use, lots of features, solid
Negative about Panasonic EB GD 70: size, no clock (!)
If you are looking for a well equipped mobile, I'd recommend Panasonic EB GD 70. I haven't notice any major flaws about Panasonic EB GD 70. I mean, it could be a little smaller; maybe I should break off the inch-long antenna!
Panasonic EB GD 70 weighs 134 g; its design is a matter of taste. It might not be a mobile to show off with, but for making calls, Panasonic EB GD 70 is awesome, and that's what it is about, isn't it? The ease of use of Panasonic EB GD 70 is amazing, due to the logically structured menu.
Panasonic EB GD 70's big keys are not only apt for ladies' hands. The keys are protected by a thin rubber layer, so they will not wear off as easily. Good thinking, Panasonic EB GD 70!
The instruction manual of Panasonic EB GD 70 is understandable and well arranged. Panasonic EB GD 70's screen can be read without much effort.
Since Panasonic EB GD 70 is a Dual Band device, it doesn't matter whether you need D-net or E-net.
Sound and reception quality of Panasonic EB GD 70 deserve praise, no matter where you are (well, unless it's the USA or another one of these Tri Band countries...)
Panasonic EB GD 70 features a great selection of ringing tones and, of course, vibration alert as well.
The Li-Ion battery of Panasonic EB GD 70 provides you with four hours of talking time. In stand - by mode, it will last about 100 hours.
Panasonic EB GD 70 has got an integrated hands-free talking device, which, unfortunately, cannot be used in a car.
With Panasonic EB GD 70, you can record phone calls of up to 50 seconds length. Regrettably, you can only record and save one text at a time; the recording of, let's say, five 10-second calls is not possible.
If you are looking for a plain mobile that is capable of SMSing, too, go for Panasonic EB GD 70. Its abandonment of fancy (unnecessary) features makes Panasonic EB GD 70 a solid, easy to use, reasonable cell phone.
