Chinese made cellphone lasts 2 years without charging
Imagine buying a phone, signing up for a data plan, and never having to walk near a wall charger again. With this generic new touchscreen phone from China, now you can. With a 3-inch touchscreen, a 1.3-megapixel camera, four built-in speakers, dual-SIM card support, and a whopping 2-year long manufacturer-rated battery life, this just might prove to be “the last mobile phone you’ll ever need.” It also has Bluetooth, an MP3 player, an e-book reader and handwriting recognition in both the English and Chinese language. I think it’s about time the big players in the handset market came around and tried to find out just how China men manage to churn out phones like these. Just what do they fuel these phones with? God?

Cool - 666 days estimated battery life on stand-by - 3-5 days talk time- not so impressive but good too all the same.
on March 21, 2008 at 08:31 PM - LINKThey run on energy. It’s just well stocked. They put out @ 32.800 mAh. That’s huge , and just think that your average phone battery put out @ somewhere between 700 - 950 mAh
on March 22, 2008 at 08:03 AM - LINKNever buy anything from China.
on March 22, 2008 at 08:20 AM - LINKI find the battery life suspicious… Either way, a battery life that long deserves praise. But from the looks of this phone, I think the overall durability is the one you should worry about. It’s got four speaker on it, it’s quite possible that the phone itself might fail before the battery power runs out.
on March 22, 2008 at 11:01 AM - LINKI worked for a major chinese telecom that does GSM projects for some of world’s famous operators. They reverse engineer, cheat and work non-stop on water and biscuits. Don’t buy a chinese product or you’ll regret it when it explodes in your hands
on March 22, 2008 at 12:45 PM - LINKI saw one just last week that said it was 365 on standby (3-5 on talk), and now this one is saying 600+ so soon after? That seems a bit strange to me..
on March 22, 2008 at 01:41 PM - LINKI don’t believe this phone… they are only adding to the marketing hype.
on March 22, 2008 at 02:00 PM - LINK@Roddie I know someone with a Chinese phone and it exploded while he was charging it. Then I have another friend and the speakers on her cellphone just stopped working. The worst part is it’s impossible to find support or a repair center for these things.
on March 22, 2008 at 02:07 PM - LINKLolzor, i can hooray boobies ten time wit phone and wank in ass :D
on March 22, 2008 at 02:15 PM - LINKWhere do you find the specs, and has anyone respectable actually tested these claims?
on March 22, 2008 at 02:50 PM - LINKYou people that say China products are crap, are stupid and need to do your homework.Besides, it doesnt matter when they OWN over one third of our national debt.We would have give them around 300 Eiffel Towers worth of gold, and guess what bitches, we dont have it!
on March 22, 2008 at 03:22 PM - LINKFort Knox would just piss them off if we gave em that.
You better recognize, China is our LOANSHARK anf the #### is going to go down soon, especially when they cut us off!!
Blogs like gadgetell just get bought by cheap marketing tricks, in exchange for a Happy Meal or a Big Mac. Stupid ####### wankers.
on March 22, 2008 at 03:36 PM - LINKwell put smart American. to not buy anything from China would pretty much mean not buying anything. if you haven’t noticed we Americans don’t make things anymore. the Chinese also make all your high quality Japanese goods you speak so highly of. Also usually they are not reverse engineering products because they manufactured the original.
on March 22, 2008 at 04:37 PM - LINKhaha…the SMART AMERICAN has proved himself to be NOT smart..which american can open up their phone or their computer appliences, and say..‘hey..it says made in america’..lol..America cant make nothing.,..they just import from china or japan or some place like that…for everyone who says that chinese stuff is crappy, here is a secret…only thoise stuff that are exported from china are crappy..Inside china, the quality control is extremely high..ofcourse, you can get the crappy stuff too…those things are ridiculously cheap…Americans need things for cheap, so the chinese gives the cheap stuff to them….lol
on March 22, 2008 at 06:42 PM - LINKUSA is NOT America…. America is made of a lot of countries. Not only you egocentric bastards.
on March 24, 2008 at 01:24 AM - LINKhi,i am an chinese,but i donot hear this phone,i cannot believe one cellphone can use by not charge for two years.in china,there are a lot of goods,some are very cheap,some are expensive.but i should tell you that the cheap goods is not design for you,the very cheap goods will sold in our countryside,where the people earn little money,so they only can buy such goods,although the goods doesnot have the Perfect quality,but the goods is cheap,and they accept the price. On the other hands,the expensive goods most have perfect quality,if you donot care the price,you should buy such goods,so you cannot complain chinese goods are crap,you should think how much you want pay for the goods,and look for the goods at the price.
on March 24, 2008 at 09:47 AM - LINKif you have other questions about china,welcome to my site and leave word to me,i will reply to you.
USA is NOT America!!
on March 29, 2008 at 04:48 AM - LINKhow can I but it in Turkey? I want to try it.
on March 30, 2008 at 05:45 PM - LINKThe claims about the battery life are absolute and total rubbish. There is no such thing as a battery available with that sort of amp-hour capacity which would fit into a handset, given the current state of the art in battery technology. Let alone the self-discharge of the battery over time (which is another matter).
Amazing what rubbish people will believe.
on April 6, 2008 at 08:28 PM - LINKHey maybe you should use another term instead of “Chinamen” you fuking wetback
on April 7, 2008 at 11:07 AM - LINKFree Tibet!!!
I want this battery for a Sony Ericsson phone.
#### U.S.A.
#### China
Free Tibet!!!
on April 8, 2008 at 07:57 PM - LINKHmm..
It might be running off a mini nuclear reactor.
on April 9, 2008 at 05:25 AM - LINKI believe that the phones are fueled with the souls of innocent children.
on April 12, 2008 at 03:32 PM - LINKOK, here’s the thing.
This phone clearly does not have a battery that leasts this long. Cheng Hung shame on you for giving such a claim this kind of attention, and shame on other comments that now seem to be heading off on an Chinese manufacturing tangent.
This is battery life not real life.
on April 12, 2008 at 04:06 PM - LINKPerhaps sarcasm does not translate well through text.
I was merely expressing my disbelief in the battery life.
