ASUS p526

The P526 can be viewed as a competitor for Sony Ericsson p1i and Nokia E61.It offers good value for money as an entry level touch screen model. The handset design is very similar to p750. The p526 does not have any joystick and believes only on the touch screen. The soft menu buttons are difficult to handle. But the keys are well spaced and can be used at ease. The phone comes with Mobile Word, Excel, Powerpoint ad other PIM functions like Meeting Time Planner, Remote Presenter, business card recognizer and Java support. GPS is present but the software has to be installed to use it.
The audio quality is ok but no match to Sony and Nokia. The 2 MP camera delivers decent photographs only in the well lit environments. The phone comes with 128 mb in-built memory and can be increased with a microSD card. The net browsing and GPRS is slow. There is no WiFi. Bluetooth is a let down. It has only Bluetooth 1.2 where as its competitors have Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP technology. The signal reception is good and the battery life is moderate. Overall this phone fetches 3.5 out of 5.
