14 DAY TRIAL // It seems that Philips added another handset to its Xenium series, which has been renowned for its long lasting batteries. Information and pictures have already leaked on the internet regarding the newly unannounced Philips Xenium 9@9v. Even if information about its specs is very scarce, the images look exactly like press pictures, which suggests that the source of leaking is the manufacturer itself.
I wonder how many letters Philips can still use for its Xenium series, as we already have a huge lineup of handsets announced, that have been codenamed 9@9j, 9@9k, 9@9w, 9@9z, 9@9h, 9@9r, 9@9m and the list can go on.
The only certain features that we know will be embedded onto the new Philips Xenium 9@9v are touchscreen display and handwriting recognition. Furthermore, the handset it is said to include Dual SIM technology, but it is not sure yet if both will be active at the same time.
The usual standby that nears 1 month (720 hours) may seem unbelievable, especially as we are talking about a Dual SIM handset that usually consumes more energy than a single SIM mobile phone. The talking time of the phone is not less amazing - 8 hours. If you think you can resist the urge to recharge your phone's battery twice a week, then this is the right choice for you, but be careful as you might forget where you have placed your charger after 1 month.
The phone is believed to hit the Asian market next month with no word of its availability in Europe or the States. Anyway, we still have some 'pieces' from Philips that have been announced in the past and are yet to be launched on the market. These feature almost same technical specifications as the leaked Philips Xenium 9@9v, but will probably be available in other regions.
There's no word about Xenium 9@9v's price, but we know that it will available in 3 different color versions: Black Perfection, White Perfection and Red Perfection.
