rahuldevnath 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2004 (edited) Ok, almost 12 hours with this Wrist Watch…………ah………mobile phone………….Camera? Anyway…..it’s over hyped! First look at aluminium casing………….and surely you will feel you bought something costly and delicate. Ok, jokes apart. The phone comes with a aluminium casing, that’s a excellent method to carry your all electronics, like DIGI Cam, and cell phone along with all accessory. The case is extremely light weight as it with the phone. Initially at first I was feeling…..some kinda James Bond………..but really when I came to know about feature……I wished I would have not bought this phone. There are three ways of hearing the caller. 1. through inbuilt Speakerphone. (The best). 2. By the finger ring receiver, and the way you will use it will make you something over James Bond. And that’s a Joker. 3. IrDA Headset. Consider this you have to recharge the headset as well. And the headset can only be recharged with the Desktop cradle, which is something very bulky, and you would not carry it around if you are a frequent traveller. Finger Ring Receiver is the only way out, where you have to put your finger close to ears. Although Speaker phone is good, but you may not use it in a public place, giving that Speaker packs quiet a punch. Camera – Camera is pathetic, and simply you can only store images in the phone only and cannot transfer it to a PC, now what the heck? The 3G sites say that it’s 115~230Kbps data enabled, so does the manual……..and so does the phone, you can set the baud rate. God….know………how do you make use of it….there is not DATA Cable. As per the advertisement, it says, Photo Caller ID….but after 6 hours of Tweaking…….I’m still not able to figure out how you set different pics to different names……yes….you can set a default image for Incoming calls….Phone Off……..Phone On……………So, what’s the camera for? Secondly the camera is not something you can put on all the time…it’s fragile and can be easily unmounted. It’s not water resistant. And if you sweat a lot than….like me use some your logic and try to cover it up with a plastic or laminate it. One more thing is the size ot wrist band. you can adjust it. But you will need a Tech for that. Anyway I will write more as I get to know more about it. Here are some pictures of the Telson Wrist Watch 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 Edited May 13, 2004 by Arun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rahuldevnath 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2004 Which Conectivity you are talking about? And one more, thing is there any guy from Delhi and Mumbai? If they can let me know if there's a DATA Cable for Telson Available? I would be in Mumbai on 15th and 20th of May. Please let me know. There's a DATA Port, and IRda port for PC Communication. But even the Pics taken by the camera can only be kept in the phone. Secondly the phone is 115Kbps CDMA 1X Internet Modem enabeld. Now, why does R COnnect is not suported in such a costly and the top most phone in Reliance Invetory? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rahuldevnath 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2004 Some the features which are quoted, but i cannot find them Telson TWC 1150 is equipped with a plug-in high-resolution 330,000 pixel digital camera that is included in the handset kit. It has a capacity to save up to 80 pictures which can be attached to the unique phone book. The Phone Book has a facility to store up to 200 entries with 4 numbers, email id and URL and Photo caller id so that whenever you receive calls the photo of the caller will be displayed on the screen. One can even set up to seven blinking colours depending on the caller's group.' My phone is not showing any menu for that, nor does the Manual suggest anything like that? What the heck? SPECIFICATIONS> 153 kbps data capable It is, but than why not R Connect? Or there is no data cable available? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arun 795 Report post Posted May 15, 2004 Some Problems i'm facing with Telson, that i would be gald if somebody sorts it out.1. How to configure Photo Caller ID? 2. How see, missed and recived call list? 3. Is there any type of PC Sync available for Telson, or in the future? Rahul, this is the official response from Reliance Infocomm... 1) I am not able to configure the 'Photo Caller ID' even though theadvertisements claim to have it. How is it configured ? a ) Click a snap and save in Album. b ) Go to Menu ( left key of the circle) ----------> then Display---------------> Press 2 --------> Press Ok ---------> Select Incoming Call Photo --------> Choose photo with left/right arrows ---------> Press Ok The seleted picture will be dispayed whenever there is an incoming call. Irrespective of the caller, the same photo wil be displayed each time the user gets a call. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2. How do we check the missed and recived call list ? There is no option for it. The missed and received call can be checked as below. Pressing 'Call'button will provide a list of the last 50 dialed/received/missed calls. Dialed numbers will appear as an Upward arrow. Missed calls will appear as a Question Mark ( ? ) Incoming calls will appear as a Downward arrow ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Is there any type of PC Sync available for Telson, or in the future ? PC sync is not available with Telson TWC 1150 handset. "Irrespective of the caller, the same photo wil be displayed each time the user gets a call" - Now that feature is unfair to be called as ''Photo Caller ID' !

rahuldevnath 0 Report post Posted May 21, 2004 Hi, well as i don't have much time, as i'm spending my holidays at Lonavla. Ok, so far as i thought u can olny get the same pic each time a call comes. Now isn't that really stupid. As in the advertisment it says "shows the photo of the caller"????? What do they mean. And simply we cannot do much with the pics taken by the phone, unlike Samsung or LG, u cannot transfer those pics to PC! I don't know how does Reliance justifies the hefty price tag of 24000 Bucks!!! LG Videos camera phone is much cheaper. Atleast they coiuld have given good software upgrade, as a actual Photo Caller ID, and some common features. And more thing I'm unable to figure out, How do u activate the Voice Tag in standby mode, i mean how do u make it listen.Every time i by hit or miss, the voice tag automatically comes!!

rahuldevnath 0 Report post Posted May 29, 2004 Some good points to add. Telson has suceeded in making the phone what is meant for, a watch! I mean, it actually comes to good that it's very light and is comfertable to wear. You can actually use it as a normal watch. Plus, even after backlight goes off, u can still see the time, in even bright sunglight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parimal 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2006 Well I bought a Nokia 6681 for 14500/-. And was highly impressed by the features this phone has. Bluetooth, 1.3 mp camera, pdf, doc, xl, ppt file reader and what not. And I was gifted this Telson TWWC-1150 by a friend. Its cost is 23000/- in the market and I don't know why. I couldn't find out why anyone should buy this set by spending 23000/-. The camera is horrible, it doesn't have a bluetooth, no datacable, and the User interface is also not up to the mark. It looks hep. If u r a college kid then u can definitely wear it to garner som attention but for some one looking for features it is a dissappointment.
