Eten V900 Review

Performance:

The 533 MHz Samsung processor, 128 RAM and 256 ROM, enable Eten V900 to work quite fast for a Windows Mobile phone, despite the results we got with SPB Benchmark.

We have to express our discontent with the sound quality during a talk. You will hear a loud and real voice, sharp at times but still understandable. At the other end of the line the sound is still loud but very sharp and accompanied by an unpleasant echo. These are serious drawbacks, because V900 is a phone after all and we are very disappointed.

As we’ve already mentioned, the battery is good for up to 3 hours of TV, which deserves a praise. Without using this feature and an hour of talking plus 1 hour of WiFi daily, you’ll have to recharge the phone in every 2-3 days.


Conclusion:

The fresh design of Eten V900 definitely makes it an object of desire for quite a large audience and in combination with the new UI and the DVB-T support, its chances for survival on the market are quite high. Its biggest drawback is the low quality during a talk, but if you are in the market for a fast WM smartphone with good multimedia functionality and digital TV capabilities, V900 is what you are looking for. GSmart t600 is probably the only alternative on the market so far, but the poor battery life it offers makes it a less attractive buy.
