Test report and technical data Trium Aura
Little money for an adequate performance: Trium Aura
Pros of Trium Aura: value for money
Cons of Trium Aura: big, heavy device
Trium Aura is difficult to tell apart from its colleagues Mystral and Odyssey. Due to the manufacturer's internal policies, the three devices seem to be triplets - with only slight differences in their covers and designs while the technical features remain the same in all three of them.
Trium Aura weighs 110 g at a size of 115 x 44 x 29 mm - not exactly handy, but at least solid! The antenna of Trium Aura is not hidden in the interior of the device and is so rather distracting. Trium Aura's screen features a mediocre resolution.
The keys of Trium Aura are rather big, which facilitates the use of them.
Supposedly, Trium Aura provides a stand - by time of 165 hours and a talking time of 2.5 hours.
Trium Aura features GPRS technology; one can also find slots for the up- and downloading of data. Unfortunately, this goes rather slow with Trium Aura.
In the field of entertainment, Trium Aura is better equipped. There is a great number of semi polyphone ringing tones and logos saved on Trium Aura that can be sent via WAP, of course, as well. One can also download more ringing tones or games onto Trium Aura. Up to ten ringing tones can be saved. If you do not like the ringing tones, you can still activate the vibratory alert.
Trium Aura's phone book allows the saving of 100 numbers. The messaging function of Trium Aura is supported by T9 text construction soft ware.
Longer calls become more convenient due to the hands free talking device of Trium Aura. Features such as the calculator do not need to be mentioned.
Considering that Trium Aura is sold at a reasonable price, its features are sufficient, although Mitsubishi did not exactly exaggerate the equipment of Trium Aura.
