Test report and technical data Panasonic EB GD 55
Panasonic's exotic midget: Panasonic EB GD 55
Pros of Panasonic EB GD 55: size, weight, quick dial function, exchangeable covers, solid, well manufactured, improved sound quality
Cons of Panasonic EB GD 55: sometimes problems with the SIM card, reception quality, keypad, contrary to manufacturer's information: No GPRS
It's finally over! The time where you carried brick like mobiles with you, is gone! Sandra bounces up and down. She's convinced to have gotten the best cell ever - her pink Panasonic EB GD 55.
Slim 65 g at a size of 77 x 43 x 16.9 mm, that's Panasonic EB GD 55! Sandra has disappeared on the dance floor again, after a look on the ice blue screen of Panasonic EB GD 55 and after informing another friend via the into Panasonic EB GD 55 integrated hands free talking device about her new crush.
To do so, she only has to use the quick dial hotkey on Panasonic EB GD 55's tiny little keypad. Fortunately, her fingers are just as tiny; other people might have problems here!
Although the Li-ion battery of Panasonic EB GD 55 provides her with a talking time of incredible 7.9 hours, I doubt that will be enough for my friend - but no cell phone can compete with Sandra's talkativeness. I doubt Panasonic EB GD 55 ever gets to sit on stand - by mode the entire 230 hours it would last then.
But why is Sandra crawling over the dance floor now? Maybe the last Prosecco-Aperol...but no, it's just the SIM card that has fallen out. Sounds weird, but for some reason the SIM card is quite a runaway and refuses to stay inside Panasonic EB GD 55 for long.
Sandra sends SMSs to everybody she knows in this club (using my phone), and minutes later there are several guys joining her on the floor. With Panasonic EB GD 55, it would have been easier; she could have used the SMS Group Send function of Panasonic EB GD 55. Besides, Panasonic EB GD 55 has got T9 text construction support, which I would like to have, too.
Sandra is really pissed by now. You can tell she's looking for someone to throw the now useless Panasonic EB GD 55 at. As somebody asks, whether she stole her little sister's toy mobile, Sandra is ready to commit genocide! When she leaves the club, she doesn't even notice Panasonic EB GD 55 is not with her anymore.
I find it later, on the floor in the ladies' room - fortunately nobody stole it. Even more amazing, Panasonic EB GD 55 does not have a single scratch after its hard night out...
