Symphony Xplorer V75 Specs, Review & Price in BD

The local mobile phone manufacturer Symphony Mobile has introduced another budget-oriented smartphone with an eye-catching stylish look. The device has been released in June 2016 and is known as Symphony Xplorer V75. The Symphony Xplorer V75 is packed with the much desired mainstream specs and features. It is powered by Google Android OS Marshmallow 6.0, features a 5.0” TN FWVGA Display, 5 MP rear and 2 MP Front facing Camera, 1.3 GHz Quad Core Processor, 1 GB RAM, 8 GB ROM, and 2000 mAh Li-Poly battery.

Review

When considered to these features, the Symphony Xplorer V75 is worth buying for only BDT 4990. The 1.3 GHz Quad Core Processor, 1 GB RAM, and 8 GB ROM conforms much with the customer’s requirements. The provision of regular SIM slot alongside with micro SIM slot is a good trait. The camera quality is average, which is quite acceptable for a smartphone of this price range. Again, the TN display panel may suffer from poor viewing angles and worse color reproduction. But our chief concern is with the battery capacity, which may prove a bit insufficient for a large 5.0” screen. Besides, the lack of OTG feature is another downside since Symphony Xplorer V75 comes with onscreen navigation buttons rather than regular/physical capacitive buttons.

However, the handset still becomes a winner when compared to its price, no doubt. Wish you all enjoy this newly introduced member in Symphony family with its countless features.

The Smartphone at a Glance:

• Android OS v6.0 Marshmallow.
• 5.0” TN FWVGA Display.

Symphony E58 Full Specs, Review & Price in Bangladesh

The Symphony E58 is a newly released budget-friendly smartphone. It packs a TFT Capacitive touch screen, a 1.0 GHz Dual single core processor, 512 MB ROM coupled with 256 MB RAM, a 1.3 MP rear and a 0.3 Megapixel (VGA) camera, and a 1400 mAh Lithium-ion battery. The Symphony E58 is run by Android 4.4.2 KitKat OS and it is 3G, EDGE, and WiFi enabled.

The smartphone is good when considered from price range. However, the downside is the single core processor, insufficient RAM & ROM, and low quality camera.

Re-registration of SIM Card by SMS

As per recent government call all unregistered and illegal SIM card users need to register their mobile phone connection. SMS being already sent to users with unregistered SIM cards and also users with inaccurate registration information. The state minister for Post and Telecommunications, Tarana Halim has asserted that this registration process is only applicable for those mobile phone users whose registration is either absent or disputed. The properly registered users don't need to bother for re-registration.

The users can register or re-register their SIM by following a simple step. Firstly, go to the message option in your mobile phone then type the full National Id Card number, date of birth, full name and send it to 1600 number for authentication:

NID No<Space>DATE OF BIRTH <Space>NAME
For example: 2698675643123 01 Jan 1985 Mahmud Hasan)

If the details are OK then a confirmation message will be sent to the user. If the information is not in order then the user will be alerted with a return SMS.

The above method is applicable for GSM mobile operators, such as Grameenphone, Robi, Banglalink, Teletalk, and Airtel. The Citycell users can register or re-register their SIM card in the a similar manner as the GSM users but with slight alteration. For Citycell (CDMA) the users need to append an additional "U" before national id number:

U<Space>NID No<Space> DATE OF BIRTH <Space>NAME

For example: U 2698675643123 01 Jan 1985 Mahmud Hasan)

All should register or re-register their SIM card to avoid future disconnection. And there should be spontaneous response from everyone since this registration or re-registration is totally free of cost.

Symphony Xplorer W16

A nice phone to chose if anyone is looking for a budget oriented android handset. This Android device comprises almost all basic features of modern needs. It is powered by Android Jelly Bean OS with a 1 GHz Dual Core processor and Mali 400 GPU. It also features 512 MB of RAM and 4GB of ROM.

First CDMA Android Mobile in Bangladesh

None can disregard the fact that Android is one of the greatest and much appreciated Operating Systems these days. Majority of popular mainstream Smartphones are operated by this OS. Like other countries Bangladesh is also undergoing a transition from the older devices to Android devices. At the beginning the shift seemed slow as only the renowned brands occupied the marketed. Nowadays Android devices are getting much cheaper since many low price Chinese handsets are being marketed. Although not extraordinarily good, these devices came as the low-end replicas of the top class devices. Now people can at least have a glimpse of the usability of the android OS. But still there are a portion of mobile phone users who are deprived of using such a great OS. I am, certainly talking about the Citycell subscribers. Citycell is the only mobile service provider who uses CDMA technology. And therefore, the Citycell subscribers do not have the liberty to choose handsets according to their choice. Citycell imports handsets for the users, but they are small in number. However, recently the company has brought an Android device which will hopefully decrease the terrible dismay the subscribers had to experience since long time.
