When looking for a mobile phone, I always look for these features and functions:-
-
UltraSlim/Slim
-
Lightweight
-
Stylish
-
3G
-
Bluetooth
-
Atleast a 1.3 megapixel camera
-
Video Call
-
MP3 Player (or one that supports MP3 audio formats)
-
MicroSD Card Slot
My Motorola Razr V3xx has the above basic functions and on top of that, it supports imode. Having to pay that extra S$10/month to Starhub is worth it I guess. I get to check movie timings from GV for free (my imode subscription is unlimited). But recently, I just discovered another function which I know I will use frequently. The calendar function. Slightly abit outdated and slow don’t you think? I know, I sound like a tech bimbo right now. The thing is, I’ve always relied on my trusty organizer diary to record down dates and appointments. However, when I carry a small bag, my organizer (which includes important dates) will get left behind. Having pursued a career in Public Relations, I have appointments and events to attend to. Dates and plans to remember. Deadline for proposals and reports to meet. I do not like my appointments for both personal and work to clash. Its been so much of a hassle writing down on my organizer and trying to remember it all when I leave my organizer behind.
Since I found out that the calendar function helps me save important dates and plans, I now need no reason to purchase a refill for my organizer or carry it around with me. I am also able to send appointment dates to Fai via MMS (he has the same phone). My phone, my mp3, my camera (though its only pathetically 1.3MB), my organizer all travel with me in the all-in-one package – MY RAZR V3XX.

My lack of knowledge about technology however doesn’t prevent me from wanting a more tech savvy and sophisticated phone. Once my contract ends with Starhub and I’ve saved enough money for 2 phones (one for my jaan) I will replace my trusty Razr V3xx for one of these [Nokia E61i, Samsung i780, Motorola Q9h or the Sony Ericsson P1 (in random order)].
For now, I am just relieved that I am able to check appointment dates on my Razr V3xx. And oh, having an organizer diary function now is must have in my list of mobile phone features and functions.
