Comparisons Featuring Philips W930

Short Review

  • The Philips W930 features a compact design with dimensions of 110 x 57.8 x 22 mm and a weight of 250 grams, making it relatively bulky for modern standards.
  • Its 3.2-inch dual TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 180 ppi, which may appear less sharp compared to contemporary devices.
  • Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6573 chipset with an 800 MHz Cortex-A9 CPU and 100 MB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks but limited for demanding applications.
  • The rear camera has a 5 MP resolution with autofocus, capable of recording video at 480p, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
  • The 2000 mAh battery provides basic longevity but lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
  • Running on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), the software experience is outdated and may not support many modern apps.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device is available in black and gold, adding a touch of style, but lacks water resistance.
  • Overall, the Philips W930 is a basic phone with limited features and performance, reflecting its 2012 release.
