Salora SM502 Reviews

Wrap up of the whole review In one

sentence – **“Chinese cell phone under Indian

brand name:-p”*

Now detailed pros and cons of the phone

Lets first have a look at the pros.

1. Dual Sim with dual standby

   
   




2. Large n clear screen with bright

   
   

backlight makes it a ease to use even

under sunlight

1. Call Recording facility(almost unlimited;

depends upon the size of memory card

you use on the phone) n auto reply.

1. Mobile Tracker

   
   




2. Dual LED Torch and wireless FM

   
   




3. .txt files can be customized and stored

   
   

for later reading as e-Books(it does not

support .PDF files under Its e-Book

functioning)

Now comes the big list the cons.

1. its humongous 1800mAh battery takes a

hell lot of time to charge back to full

capacity

1. the navigation keys(up, down, left, right)

are too closely placed(congested), one

needs to be extra careful while using

them(actually the whole keypad is a

cheap piece of plastic mould and it does

not give the freedom to use them

without difficulty)

1. the sound quality output through its

3.5mm jack is very bad(tried using my

Skull Candy headphones, but then too the

output did not show any improvement L)

1. The operational interface is limited(like -

can’t change themes, large sized images

can’t be set as wallpapers it needs to be

resized etc.)

1. though 1.3Mexapixel camera is equipped

with the phone its image quality is

similar to a Nokia VGA camera

1. GPRS connectivity through this phone

actually sucks(slow, the web pages which

don’t have mobile version can’t be

opened directly, no streaming video is

supported, the applets show listed like

Facebook, MSN are just shortcut of their

WebPages nothing else)

1. the charger cable is too short to be used

as a traveler charger

1. no details about the service center

neither on their website nor on the

warranty manual card

1. the supplied headphone quality is

pathetic(failed with 15 days, no sound

output from one of the sound buds)

10.(adding this on my 23rd day of the cell

use) . it switched off on its own and

now not switching at all.(cursing my

decision to buy this phone should have

gone ahead again with Nokia 101)

If the phone continues functioning properly it's really at a steal price(got it for Rs 1000) given the fact if you can overlook the minor demerits stated above which are common in this price bracket devices.

Do buy if you are going to use this as a secondary phone or else give it a complete miss!
