Thread: Micromax W990 - Windows Mobile Phone

This is one of the best looking phone of Micromax i have seen till now.

I am not advertising, i just saw this phone on net and would like to share with you.

Micromax : Products : W900

Just wanted to know, how can Micromax afford Windows Mobile Operating System?? Is it free for them??

Why can micromax not afford windows? its the customer who is going to pay for it.

Would have been a great phone if it had HSDPA.

p.s. Micromax is the only indian manufacturer having tie-up with Qualcom for using their chipsets.

Yes Windows Mobile 6.1 will be same and the latest stable release of Windows Mobile is 6.5.3.

Please tell the cost and the meaning of hsdpsa and btw

the phone is yet to be released, so don't know about the price, yes this phone has GPS.

HSDPA = Its kinda enhanced 3G edition. Only in use if one uses GPRS.

Raj ko Raj rakhna thik hai, lekin kab tak

HSPDA is 3.5G (typically).. while cheap 3G phones have 384kbps ideal downloading speed, but when the phone is HSPDAble it can go to whopping 3.6mbps...
so whenever you want to have a 3G mobile, and you dont have a light pocket, you mut buy a HSPDA phone...

also tell the cost of w990

then tell about this 3gusb data card
cost and speed and if it can be used with any company sim card or not

^^^
cost around 3.5 k
can be used with any 3G SIM functioning on UMTS 2100 band

if we use 3g set like w990 can we obtain such speed just like 3g modem of micromax

Yes, we can get speed but the main thing is that modems are good for that work as they are only designed to do so................

The mobile battery may destroy after much using internet via it as this processes consumes much power and produces heat that is not good for the battery for it`s ideal life but only after continuous use of it..........

i think u r rite

Hello guys,

I just read through the thread, yes micromax windows mobile is good one. But let me tell when they release this phone it must come with Windows Mobile 6.5.3 else its a waste because the latest operation system is that and dont think these are just numbers but its a core change, you get Full internet explorer in wm 6.5.3 with full flash support. Which you cant get in Wm 6.1.

Also, wm 6.1 is not at all touch friendly, and one more thing if u buy htc phones u can hack them and put ur own os. Also note htc is the pioneer of windows mobile, did u saw Htc hd2 the monster mob. There hardware are of top quality, so if u going for windows mobile be sure to check everything from hardware to software.

And about hsdpa gaggan is absolutely right, but if u r gonna use ur mob internet on mob only then it is ok till u download something. The more data u download the more heat ur mob gets. Just put a big file for download and wait for 2 to 5 mins after that touch ur mob back cover it will be heated too much. And here iam talking about high end mobs not nokia crap's.
