The i-mobile 518: A Feature Phone from 2007
Released in December 2007, the i-mobile 518 was one of the earliest feature phones produced by the Thai-based company i-mobile. With a simple design and basic features, the 518 was a popular device for those looking for a budget-friendly phone with essential capabilities.
Small but Mighty
Weighing only 101g with a thickness of 16.5mm, the i-mobile 518 may seem small but it packs a lot of punch for its size. It has 88MB of internal storage and a microSD slot for expanded memory, allowing users to store more photos, videos, and music. The phone also supports Class 10 GPRS technology, providing users with internet access on the go.
A Classic Design
The body of the i-mobile 518 is compact, measuring at 105.5 x 49 x 16.5 mm. It has a traditional mini-SIM card slot and a 2.0 inch TFT display with 256K colors, giving a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels. The phone also comes with a selection of wallpapers to personalize the home screen.
Your Mini Personal Assistant
The i-mobile 518 may be a basic phone, but it offers more than just calling and texting. It comes equipped with a phonebook and call records, as well as a 2MP main camera that can capture photos and videos. While there is no front-facing camera, the phone still offers entertainment with its built-in MP3 and MP4 players, FM radio with recording, and TV-out feature.
Convenient Features
For organizing tasks and keeping track of time, the i-mobile 518 has a voice memo function, a world clock, stop watch, and a solar-lunar calendar. It also has messaging capabilities, including SMS, EMS, and MMS. Java games are also available for users to entertain themselves on the go.
Power Up
The i-mobile 518 is powered by a removable Li-Ion 1000 mAh battery, providing up to 250 hours of stand-by time and 3 hours of talk time. This allows users to stay connected for longer periods without worrying about running out of battery.
Discontinued, But Not Forgotten
Although the i-mobile 518 is no longer in production, it still remains a popular device among those who appreciate its simplicity and practical features. The phone was only available in black, but its compact size and convenient features made it a hit among users during its time on the market.
