Toshiba TG01 Review
A Toshiba TG01 review uncovers a phone with one of the largest screens around at an impressive 4.1 inches. The design by Toshiba, a company renowned for making television sets looks remarkably like an FST screen and wouldn’t look out of place on your lounge wall. They have made the system capable of running multiple functions at once and had the foresight to include an energy conserver.
With its high-resolution screen the TG01 is massive in comparison to the iPhone and comes into its own when you use the web browser or have it functioning as a sat nav, where the display is a definite bonus. Websites are displayed full screen and the touch control makes navigating around the screen easy.
Criticism will undoubtedly come from those who despair of the Windows Mobile 6.1 system and there will be cries of derision and “why didn’t you install an Android?” They have added a “blinds” system that works on top of Windows in an attempt to make it more versatile, but opinions on this vary too.
The phone comes with a standard 3.2-megapixel camera but no flash, video facility and an audio player. Connectivity is fine with GPS, WiFi, a mini USB but there is no 3.5mm jack. This is a common complaint with many phones.
The Toshiba TG01 has the potential to be an excellent phone and its screen alone makes it worthy of consideration. Once they sort out the interface problems the 1.0 GHz processor will come into its own.
