MDA Vario II - T-Mobile’s Review

The Vario II is a HSDPA Super 3G phone. This means that it would feature all the next generation technologies and deliver cutting edge performance like super fast download speeds. The keypad design has also been changed keeping in mind easy accessibility and bears a resemblance to the company’s MDA Pro.

The MDA Vario II runs on a 300MHz Samsung processor with 128MB flash and 64MB memory. It sports a 2.8-inch display, 802.11b/g wireless, Bluetooth 2.0, MicroSD, 2.1 megapixel camera, and a secondary video conferencing camera.

The screen is fairly standard for this type of device, with a 240×320 pixel resolution in 65,000 colours. It’s touch-sensitive, and like the earlier Vario, the Vario II has a slide out keyboard. There’s also a microSD memory slot, Bluetooth and the MDA Vario II supports video calling with a secondary camera.

It’s a Windows Mobile 5.0 device, so that means that the T-Mobile MDA Vario II can work with Microsoft Office documents, it comes with pocket versions of Outlook and Internet Explorer and it also packs in the capable Windows Media player for multimedia playback.

Slightly larger than T-Mobile’s MDA Compact communicator, the device will harbour a 240 x 320 pixel display with the ability to natively rotate the screen in a landscape orientation courtesy of its operating system, which will be Windows Mobile 5.0. This will let users easily align the screen with the thumbboard of the device, also this oriented in a landscape fashion.

The MDA Vario II will provide users with connection speeds of up to 1.8 megabits per second which is four times faster than previously available. The increased speed of service will provide users with the highest quality internet, video calling and email experience available on a mobile device. Using HSDPA technology, T-Mobile already offers coverage across the UK population, and is an advancement on the existing 3G network offering speeds up to four times faster than 3G. For areas that are not currently covered by HSDPA, the device automatically connects to Wi-Fi and GPRS ensuring that customers are always connected at the fastest possible speed.
