Sony Ericsson G502 Phone is clearly designed to take its range of web-enabled phones in a different direction. The new G502 is the latest in an established line of classic Sony Ericsson phones that cram a wealth of time-saving features into an affordable, pocket-sized phone.The G502 is the first model in Sony Ericsson’s product range with high-speed HSDPA capability. Now you can therefore enjoy faster browsing anytime and anywhere. If you thought great internet experience can only be delivered by insanely expensive high-end mobile phones, maybe it's about time you reconsidered.
Sony Ericsson G502 is on the compact side of handsets currently available on the market. Measuring the modest 109 x 46 x 13.5 mm and weighing only 83.5 grams, there is just a handful of handsets to take less space in you pocket than the G502.The body of Sony Ericsson G502 is entirely made of plastic, but it still looks nice. The handset has successfully avoided the cheap feeling some other completely plastic devices just can't seem to help. Instead, it gives a rather solid impression and raises no doubts about durability and strength.The earpiece is placed at the top of the front panel right above the display. Sony Ericsson G502 features a 2" 262K-color screen of QVGA resolution. Designwise Sony Ericsson G502 is quite characteristic of the company's portfolio. Except for the somewhat unusual D-pad, you can tell it's a Sony Ericsson right away. It is rather neat and elegant with glossy front panel and opaque plastic back.
The G502 operates on European GSM (900/1800/1900 MHz) and HSDPA (2100 MHz) networks. The G502 also comes with the latest version of Google Maps for Mobile, offering turn-by-turn directions and reviews and ratings of nearby restaurants and hotels, but the GPS Enabler HGE-100 accessory is required to receive GPS signals. The G502 offers a "set-up wizard" to add web mail accounts or Exchange ActiveSync accounts for those who need that. The G502 is packed with a wealth of features that would certainly make you love this phone including Bluetooth stereo, media player, stereo FM, USB support, synchronization features, 3D games, Java support, video recording and playback, video streaming, plus a complete organizer function.
Sony Ericsson G502 has a 2 megapixel camera with no autofocus, nor flash. The user interface is Cyber-shot SE v2.0, which earns the otherwise mediocre camera a point. The major benefits are the pop-up sub-menus enhanced with icons and the large number of configurable settings. The camera interface uses the toolbar layout. Pitched as an internet device, uses the Access NetFront HTML browser, the latest 3.4 version. The main improvement here is the integrated virtual mouse pointer, the webpage map view, the "find on page" and "mark and copy" options.
The Sony Ericsson G502 comes with 32 megabytes of internal memory complete with a memory card slot which supports a Micro™ M2™ memory stick. The Li-Po 950 mAh (BST-33) battery allows the user to enjoy up to 340 hours of GSM standby time or 365 hours of UMTS standby time. The user can enjoy up to 10 hours of GSM talk time or approximately 5 hours of UMTS talk time.
Low internal memory clearly bogs down the usage of the phone as a multimedia device. Tiny display screen is another stumbling block. Looking at the current market trends, 2 inch display is about average in this class. The phone is a bit more thicker than the K660 but weighs lesser than the latter. They are otherwise almost similar to each other in every aspect. The only other notable differences are the Exchange ActiveSync and RSS feed display while the device is on standby.
