Key functions and features

The J200 has an innovative interface that enables fast and efficient use. The main menu that provides an overview of all functions and features in the phone, is easily reached by pressing the joystick in standby. The main menu is accessible during an ongoing call, this feature allows multitasking - an air time generator.

Actions in the J200 are always carried out in the most efficient way, and in standby there is a visible status bar at the top of the display. The status bar extends the usage of non-voice features by dis- playing icons and indicators of ongoing calls.

Ringtones

There are several ways to find a catchy ringtone for the J200. One way is to choose any of the pre-pro- grammed ringtones in the phone. It is also possible to download a ringtone from a WAP site, receive a tune via infrared, or receive it in an EMS message from a friend or a company that sells ringtones. Up to 8 polyphonic ringtones of 30kb can be down- loaded. When the phone’s memory is full the user must delete content in order to free up space for new content.

The user can enjoy the ultimate viewing experience offered by the phone’s 4096 full colour display. The display has 128 x 128 pixels and offers maximum information with the least scrolling.

Display

The J200 display is an STN LCD (Super Twisted Nematic Liquid Crystal Display) with 4096 colours. It measures 128 x 128 pixels, which is larger than those offered by many other phones on the market. Compared to 256 colour displays, the contouring effect that arises in colour gradients is less visible on 4096 colour displays, resulting in a smoother transition from, for example, a darker to a lighter nuance.

A large colour display makes it funnier to browse content that is stored in your phone, like pictures, themes and wallpapers, and when online, using mobile Internet, you are able to enjoy colourful web pages. Such displays take mobile gaming to a totally new level, making gaming the certain choice when you have some time to spare, for example while travelling or waiting for the bus.

Polyphonic ringtones

Pleasing to the ear, polyphonic ringtones can play up to 40 voices simultaneously. The word “polyph- ony” means playing with several voices at the same time. Almost all music that we listen to consists of polyphonic melodies.

EMS (Enhanced Messaging Service)

Enhanced Messaging Service (EMS) adds a new powerful functionality to the well-known SMS standard. With it, mobile phone users can add life to SMS text messaging in the form of pictures, ani- mations, sound and formatted text. This gives the users new ways to express feelings, moods and personality in SMS messages. Apart from messag- ing, users will enjoy collecting and swapping pic- tures and ringtones and other melodies, downloading them from the Internet or editing them directly on the phone.
