Model S688 by Bird is known to many of us by an advertisement that tells it is the thinnest colour screen phone (115x45x14 mm). It is possible to be so with many reservations, it is really one of the thinnest phones and this parameter is a strong point of the phone. The device is comfortable to hold in the hand and has no any side buttons, there is only an interface connector in the bottom. That all gives it away as a representative of low-end devices with minimum functions and minimal price. It's not very heavy, the weight is 79 grams.
There are various colour solutions, the plastic looks cheap but considering the price it is all right. On the front panel there is a small screen, it shows 4096 colours, STN. The resolution is 128x98 pixels (30x22 mm) and it may display 5 text lines and one service line. It is impossible to call it acceptable in any way because it is inferior even to the ones in two-years-old models, for instance Motorola C350. In general it is a typical low-end solution with the screen fading in the sun.
The keypad is made of plastic and the keys have a terrace like disposition. The keys are comfortable to work with due to their size, there is a blue backlighting. As for me, it is seen well not in all the conditions.
A battery that also serves as a back panel is Li-Ion, 660 mAh. According to the manufacturer the battery provides up to 2 hours of talk time and up to 120 hours of standby time. In Moscow the device worked for about 4 days in case of 5-7 minutes of talk time and minimal time of using other functions a day (one, two messages). Full charging time is less than 1.5 hours.
A SIM-card holder is very inappropriate, it is almost impossible to move a catch out with a finger it is very tight. And one has to use a pen or a battery itself. It will be a disadvantage for those who change SIM-cards often.
Menu
It is possible to get into the main menu by pressing the right soft-key. The menu looks like a list with a vertical row of tags and an image of the chosen item is animated. There is a fast navigation along the menu with the help of digital series. Let's consider the items of the menu.
