  • The Sagem MC 820, released in 1998, features a compact design with dimensions of 130 x 50 x 26 mm and a weight of 135g, making it portable but relatively bulky by modern standards.
  • Its alphanumeric display is minimal, offering a resolution of 3 x 12 characters and a low pixel density of 3 PPI, which limits visual clarity.
  • Performance specifications are basic, with no RAM or storage, indicating it is designed for simple tasks rather than demanding applications.
  • The camera capabilities are non-existent, lacking both rear and selfie cameras, which is typical for phones of this era.
  • Battery specifications are also absent, suggesting limited functionality without modern charging options.
  • The software environment is unspecified, and there are no stereo speakers or headphone jack for audio output.
  • Connectivity options are minimal, with no support for 5G, WiFi, Bluetooth, or NFC, indicating a focus on basic communication.
  • The lack of advanced features reflects the phone's intended use as a straightforward communication device.
