Kyocera Adreno-S2400

Sporting an attractive clamshell design, the Kyocera Adreno-S2400 provides a look and feel that is familiar to many cell phone users. Weighing in at just 2.6 ounces, the unit fits neatly into the hand and will feel comfortable for the vast majority of users. As a first time handheld device, the S2400 offers just enough functionality to be interesting without overloading the senses of the user.

Some of the highlights of the S2400 include an easy to use voice dial feature that will automatically scan your address book and initiate dialing for you in a matter of a second or two. The popular Bluetooth technology is also present, which helps to make the unit very workable in a business setting. Just about anyone who likes to be on the go will find the GPS feature very user friendly. It works fine for locating yard sales around town, or helping a visiting sales representative navigate through the streets of an unfamiliar city.

Along with excellent voice clarity on calls, the speakerphone too provides a level of quality that other cell phones find difficult to achieve. While the talk time is a relatively low 3.3 hours, the lithium ion battery recharges quickly. The presence of side keys is also a nice touch to the overall design, especially since they are so easy to use.

While not the most feature rich unit on the market today, the Kyocera Adreno-S2400 is a pretty attractive option for the price. If you are not into a lot of extra bells and whistles, this may be a good choice.
