Comparisons Featuring Philips W820

Short Review

  • The Philips W820 features a compact design with dimensions of 114.6 x 57.7 x 14.8 mm and a weight of 143g, making it portable and easy to handle.
  • Its 3.2-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 180 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks vibrancy and sharpness.
  • Performance is supported by 512MB of RAM and 512MB of internal storage, suitable for light usage but limited for multitasking or extensive app installations.
  • The rear camera has a 5 MP sensor with autofocus, capable of capturing basic images, but video recording is limited to 176x144 at 15fps, which is quite low by modern standards.
  • The battery capacity is 2100mAh, providing decent longevity for everyday use, though it lacks fast charging or wireless capabilities.
  • Running on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), the software experience is outdated, limiting access to newer apps and features.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device includes a headphone jack, catering to users who prefer wired audio.
  • Overall, the Philips W820 is a basic phone with essential features, suitable for users with minimal smartphone needs.
  • Its design and build quality reflect a straightforward approach, prioritizing functionality over modern aesthetics.
