Neo 808i Cell Phone Is Small But Doomed

Neo 808i in Hand
I’m thinking about starting a category of products that are failed or doomed from the start (this will be the first one) . Unfortunately, the Neo 808i appears to be one of them. There is no doubt that the device is small (1.6” x 2.8” x .5”), but in a world of slimmer devices and larger screens the 808i falls seriously short – its screen is 1” by .8 “. It’ll do MP3, MP4, FM radio, and take photos with a 1.2 megapixel camera. Sadly, Internet will be achieved via GPRS.

    I purchased this phone at Lufthansa duty free and must say that I love this phone. It has many features like so many other cell phones. The best I like about this cell phone is that it is small enough to hang from a strap around your neck. That is especially ideal when you use a hands free Bluetooth earpiece and don’t worry about Bluetooth signal loss by having the cell phone device in your pocket. I am very impressed with the size and that it is also 3 band.

    Great Phone
