Review: PHICOMM Passion 660

Another good phone from Phicomm

We had talked about Phicomm's Energy 653 recently and this time, we are back with another device from Phicomm - the Passion 660.

Like its low priced sibling, this phone straightaway impresses with the light weight. Its weight of 110 grams seems all the more special, as it sports an all-metal Magnesium alloy frame with a sturdy one-piece outer casing. The matte texture, too, feels nice to hold.

However, the block-like shape of the phone with straight edges might not be liked by everyone. While we would have liked contoured edges better, it is also true that the straight-edges give this phone a distinct look, which is actually quite cool!

Here comes the fourth generation

Internet in India becomes more awesome with the advent of 4G

When India was introduced to the world of Internet in 1990's, it was more like a parallel universe – something that existed outside our normal lives, like a magical world that could be entered only from a cyber cafe, often by paying as much as Rs 100 per hour. We were, obviously, expected to have enormous amounts of patience while pages slowly flowed through the dial-up modems.

But soon, things changed dramatically. Popularity of mobile phones that grew in unimaginable pace made the Internet a major part of our everyday lives. Away from the cyber cafe and the boring dial-up modems, our mobile phones opened up the world of Internet in front of us – anywhere, anytime, on demand!
