Asus P552W

Asus P552W

It seems there is a new trend among sailing Touch PDA phone, which uses a special interface as the Home Screen. This interface is basically the application on the Windows Mobile operating system, functions to facilitate access and navigation menus. This trend started from HTC with its TouchFLO, and then went to a number of vendors such as Samsung TouchWiz, or a Sony Ericsson with XPanel.

Now, even if Asus did not want to miss a trend. Their latest PDA Phone, P552w, also uses a similar interface called Glide UI. This was from a row of icons at the bottom bar on the default view. We live “swipe” the bar to select the icon, and then knocked on the icon to open the tab.

Does not stop there, Asus also includes an interface that he named the Multi-Home and Anytime Launcher. Multi-Home is a home screen can be selected according to mood. By tapping the triangle-like icon top right corner of the screen, will be raised 3 home screen display option. We live shifted to choose, and then tapped to activate it. Meanwhile, Anytime Launcher will display shortcuts to favorite applications. To move between screen, we live to shift the screen left or right.

Another interesting to try is Gester. This is a virtual on-screen navigation to control the direction and operation of the application of the screen with just one simple movement. Based on our observations, Gester plays an important role; considering all the interfaces are introduced Asus will require touch-screen controls are adequate.

Asus P552w design itself reminds us of the HTC Touch 3G phone. The difference, P552w has more buttons on the bottom of the touch screen; a Call button, Anytime Launcher, 4-way navigation plus center, OK, and End call. While his stylus stored in the upper right elbow casing. As usual, the touch screen would-prone was pushed accidentally. Fortunately, Asus has set up a safety in the form of slide switch (which is on the right casing). We live this switch shifts upward, and the screen will be safe from accidental touch.

Performance of Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional was established with the support of powerful 624MHz processor. P552W storage capacity can be increased. But to do so would be a bit troublesome, because it just builds up a MicroSD slot under the SIM slot. Asus also included EziPhoto for EziMusic viewer for images and music player as a bonus application. Speaker adjacent to the camera. The sound quality is the same as the average PDA phone. Volume 2-way on the left body.

Our little pity, 3.5G facility is maximized only for the transfer of data; not be used for video calls. Similarly, the GPS facility; can not directly be used because Asus only provides the GPS port.
