Bluetooth™ wireless technology

Several devices can be connected to G900c using Bluetooth wireless technology up to 10 metres away (simultaneous Bluetooth™ connections). For example, the phone can be answered with a Bluetooth headset when it rings and images can be beamed to another phone at the same time. Several mobile phones can take part in a Bluetooth-supported game and the phone and a computer can exchange data such as images, video clips, business e-cards, music files and calendar data. G900c also supports real time transferring of stereo audio to, for example, a stereo Bluetooth headset.

FM Radio with RDS

The FM radio with RDS (radio data system) offers instant and easy access to FM radio channels. Users just plug in their handsfree headsets (works as an antenna) and can start listening to their favourite stations. The radio can also be started by the alarm clock. RDS information, which is sent out by the currently tuned-in radio station, is displayed directly on the screen.

5 Megapixel camera

A 5 MP touch auto focus camera for digital still images and video recording is included in G900c. For still images the camera has Photo fix functionality, which means that an under-exposed picture can be improved by letting the camera calculate and adjust the light balance. The video playback quality is equal to TV quality, that is, 20 fps (frames per second). Using email or MMS users can easily share their photos and videos with others.

Gaming

Gaming is still a very popular feature in mobile phones, and with Advanced Java, users can add new games and skill levels to further enhance the entertainment value of the phone. There are several embedded games included in the phone at delivery.

JAVA™

Download extra content with Java™, for example, new information and entertainment-based applications. This gives users a possibility to personalize the functions and features in their phones. Developers get the opportunity to create new applications.

Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™) slot

G900c is equipped with a Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™) memory card slot. An 8 GB card, for example, is equal to 8000 songs in eAAC+ format, equal to 700 CDs, or around 2000 songs in MP3 format. A memory card in G900c can be accessed from a PC using USB 2.0 high-speed connection.

Music recognition – TrackID™

A music clip is recorded from the FM radio or Sound recorder, and sent to the TrackID™ Internet service. Song title, artist and album name, if available, is sent back to the user within seconds.

Opera™ 8.0 Web browser

Opera™ 8.0 allows full HTML browsing and supports all de facto standards. It features normal or small screen rendering as well as full screen view. Includes Flash Lite 3 support (from maintenance release 1 of the phone software).

Personal Information Management (PIM) data synchronization

A user can stay up-to-date with everyday events by synchronizing phone contacts, calendar appointments and tasks in the phone with the corresponding data in a computer. The USB cable (which comes with the phone) and the built-in Bluetooth feature can be used together with the synchronization software available on the supplied CD.
