With the release of TV Phone V10, the Chinese are aiming at a new solution for several mobile phone problems. This phone is reported to come with two slim slots and also TV support.

It seems to be the perfect phone to offer maximum comfort by compacting several functions in only one easy to use device. The design shows in every detail that this phone is a Chinese one, as it highly resembles other similar models. The small buttons on the keypad and the unpolished design won't score it any points when it comes to good looks.

TV Phone V10 proves to be a bit large, although not thick at it's 118 x 60 x 17 mm in size. One thing that might prove useful, especially for watching TV at a high quality, is the 2.8 inch TFT touchscreen. It is capable of displaying up to 256k colors on a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels. Moreover, this screen is capable of recognizing handwriting, which will be appreciated by those that prefer to enter text in their cellular by using the traditional Chinese writing signs.

The TV Phone V10 also prides to be capable of holding two SIM cards at the same time. Still, it proves to be disappointing that this handset is not capable of supporting them at the same time. Just for carrying around another SIM there are also pockets to be used. The only advantage that this brings is that the user will not have to open the phone and remove its battery every time he needs to change the SIM card.

Other specifications of the TV Phone V10 reveal that it comes equipped with a 1.3 megapixel camera for taking pictures of acceptable quality. Aside the built-in TV, it also comes with an MP3 player an FM radio in order to keep the user entertained.

The TV Phone V10 is available for purchase at the price of USD 305.
