Features

Phone thermometer

Phone many features to support active lifestyle built in. One of them is thermometer. This feature measures ambient temperature using using sensor connected to phone circuit board. This is different from Nokia 5210 which used sesnor on battery which many third party batteries lack. You can also get temperature display on standby mode.

Phone digital compass

Phone also got Digital compasss. In order to function after batter removal compass must be calibrated first: set phone on flat surface and follow on screen instructions, if you rotate too fast or too slow calibration will fail.

My opinion about the phone

Phone is very nice to use because of it durability. Making call or using compass wont scare it even on heavy rain. However you should be aware that from many phones shells have degraded or broken from connecting points and rear bottom mechanism will eventually brake off. You can make it stay by without it or if you want keep it from falling you may use duct tape.

Phone compass is nice thing, because I dont want always keep seperate compass while hiking while exploring in middle of nowhere. From phone thermometer I can about see how cold or hot there is. I used Fitness coach application inlcluded with phone but it is bit hard to use sometimes for example in swimming unless you want take without next to pool. It is still fine for following your workout and unlike newer phone fitness programs does not require internet connection.

In my use battery life is max 3 days, however it should be noted that I call lot and compass is left active many times while I am hiking.
