| SIMs SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) is a small card that contains mobile network subscriber's account information. This allows the phone using the card to attach to a mobile network. The SIM card is most commonly associated with GSM and UMTS mobile networks. Moving a SIM card from one phone to another allows a subscriber to switch mobile phones without having to contact their mobile network carrier. SIM cards can also be used by a phone to store limited amounts of data, such as phone numbers and text messages. | Not specified |

BATTERY
| Battery Type Battery Type => Cell phones run on various kinds of batteries depending on the manufacturer, phone size or shape and features. There are basically four types of cell phone batteries => Lithium Polymer, Lithium Ion, Nickel Metal Hydride and Nickel Cadmium. | 620 mAh |
|---|---|
| Capacity Battery Capacity is a measure (typically in Amp-hr) of the charge stored by the battery, and is determined by the mass of active material contained in the battery. The battery capacity represents the maximum amount of energy that can be extracted from the battery under certain conditions. | 620 mAh |
| Placement | Not specified |
| Charging The functionality responsible for recharging batteries in portable devices, such as mobile phones, significantly influences both battery lifespan and the practicality of daily product usage.The charging process, encompassing factors like voltage, current, and completion actions, is contingent upon the battery's size and type.Contemporary battery chargers dynamically adjust charging parameters based on the battery's current charging state. Charging an empty battery poses no safety risk, allowing for a quicker charging process. Consequently, many charging speed benchmarks, including ours, specify the battery level achieved after a 30-minute session on an empty battery.Standard chargers with a power output of 5V/1A, equivalent to 5W, serve as a baseline, with anything surpassing this speed classified as quick or fast charging. | Not specified |

Discover the classic simplicity of the Benefon Q, a mobile phone that harkens back to the basics of communication. Launched in the year 2000, this device is a testament to the era of monochrome displays and straightforward functionality.
This mini-SIM phone prioritizes essential functions without the complexities of modern smartphones. It lacks a camera, Bluetooth, and WLAN, focusing instead on core features like SMS and Email, supported by WAP 1.1 and HTMP (MS) for basic internet browsing.
The Benefon Q’s user interface is designed for ease of use, featuring dynamic and user-selectable font sizes powered by electro-luminescent lighting for optimal visibility. The phonebook can store up to 50 contacts, and the call record keeps track of 10 dialed, received, and missed calls each.
Sound-wise, the Benefon Q offers vibration alerts and downloadable monophonic ringtones, but it does not include a loudspeaker or a 3.5mm jack, maintaining its minimalist approach. Users can personalize ringing melodies, ascending alerts, and choose from several SMS alert tones and tone levels.
For its power source, the Benefon Q relies on a removable Li-Po 620 mAh battery, providing up to 100 hours of standby time and up to 3 hours of talk time. An alternative lithium-ion 650 mAh battery option extends standby to 120 hours and talk time to approximately 5 hours and 20 minutes.
The phone also includes a few built-in games, predictive text input, an organizer, and phone ON/OFF timers, adding a touch of convenience and entertainment.
In essence, the Benefon Q is a mobile device that strips away the frills and focuses on the fundamental purpose of a phone – to keep you connected. It’s a reliable choice for anyone who values the uncomplicated and efficient communication of yesteryears.
