With its 80 g, Panasonic EB GD 93 is one of the lightest mobiles on the market right now. Since Panasonic EB GD 93 is flat and small, it lies very good in one's hand.
The keys of Panasonic EB GD 93 are great to handle, due to their good pressure point. The six-lined graphical display of Panasonic EB GD 93 can be read well. The contrast of it is adjustable and there are seven different options for the screen's background color.
Panasonic EB GD 93's keypad is lit green, which does not match all display colors, but oh well...
170 hours in stand-by mode will be survived by Panasonic EB GD 93. Furthermore, it will provide about 3 hours of talking time, which is average. The good thing about Panasonic EB GD 93's Li-Ion battery is that it finally puts an end to the memory effect!
Panasonic did some work concerning its menu. Panasonic EB GD 93's menu is a lot better arranged than the menus of earlier Panasonics. Unfortunately, the instruction manual has not been improved, although this would have been necessary! If you have a problem with Panasonic EB GD 93, the manual won't be a big help. Another deficit of Panasonic EB GD 93 is that its T) software isn't able to learn new words and is thus more annoying than helpful.
The phonebook of Panasonic EB GD 93 holds up to 100 entries plus an additional 125 entries on the SIM card. Furthermore, Panasonic EB GD 93 features 20 ringing tones. Another five can be created via the melody editor, one can be recorded.

I never had any complaints about the sound and reception quality of Panasonic EB GD 93. If I had none or a bad reception, my network operator was to blame.
Panasonic EB GD 93 has got all the features you expect from a mobile, such as an alarm function, vibration alert and so on. Since Panasonic EB GD 93 is manufactured very well, it is not too bad if you drop it every now and then.
