Comparisons Featuring Microsoft Kin TWOm
Short Review
- The Microsoft Kin TWOm features a compact design with dimensions of 111.3 x 59.9 x 16.3 mm and a weight of 133g, making it portable and easy to handle.
- Its 3.4-inch TFT display has a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 170 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks sharpness for detailed visuals.
- Performance is powered by an Nvidia Tegra chipset with a 600MHz ARM 11 CPU and 256MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking and demanding applications.
- The rear camera offers an 8 MP sensor with autofocus and can record video at 720p, but it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- Battery specifications are not provided, indicating limited information on longevity or charging capabilities.
- The software experience is not detailed, but the device includes stereo speakers and a headphone jack for audio output.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.1, although it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The Kin TWOm is designed in a single color, black, and lacks water resistance.
- Overall, it presents a basic feature set suitable for casual users.
