Comparisons Featuring Gigabyte GSmart MS800

Short Review

  • The Gigabyte GSmart MS800 features a compact design with dimensions of 116 x 59 x 15 mm and a weight of 133g, making it portable.
  • Its 2.8-inch TFT resistive touchscreen displays 65K colors at a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, providing a modest visual experience.
  • Performance is driven by a Marvell PXA270 CPU clocked at 520MHz, paired with 64MB of RAM and 256MB of ROM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
  • The rear camera offers 2.0 MP resolution, suitable for basic photography, but lacks advanced features like optical image stabilization.
  • Battery life is supported by a 1300mAh capacity, with no fast charging or wireless options available.
  • Running on Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional, the software experience may feel dated compared to modern standards.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device lacks stereo speakers and a headphone jack, which may affect audio versatility.
  • Overall, the GSmart MS800 is a basic phone with limited features, suitable for essential tasks.
  • Its build quality and design reflect the standards of its 2008 release.
