Design
The
phone sports a clamshell design with a large 128 x 160 color display
with 65,000 colors. The outside cover of the handset features a
supplementary 96 x 96 full-color OLED display that can display picture
IDs, time, call information, battery and signal strength, and more. The
phone's VGA (640 x 480) camera is placed just above this display. Up
and down buttons for volume control are placed on the left side. Most
of the phone's features and on-screen menus are controlled by a
five-way center button on the handset's control pad. There's also a
standard jack to accept universal hands-free headsets.
Calling Features
The
L1400 supports polyphonic ringtones as well as Cingular's "Super Tones"
enhanced ringtones. With picture and ringer ID functions, you can
assign pictures and ringers to your most common callers. A number of
ringtones come preloaded on the phone and more ringtones can be
downloaded from Cingular's MEdia service. For times when you want to be
discreet, there's also a vibrate ringer mode.
Voice
activated dialing makes calling your friends, family and associates as
easy as saying their names, while the L1400's phone book will keep
track of up to 255 contacts. The phone also supports Cingular's "Fast
Forward" call forwarding device, which enables you to effortlessly
forward your wireless calls to your land line phone.
Messaging, Internet and Tools
The
L1400 has all the bases covered when it comes to messaging and Internet
connectivity. In addition to basic text and picture messaging support,
the phone features the AOL Instant Messenger client for easy wireless
chatting (Cingular messaging charges apply). There's also a built-in
web browser for MEdia downloads and mobile web browsing. Cingular's
MEdia service lets you receive and send emails, read news headlines,
get weather updates, download games and ringtones, and more.
Traditional text messaging, as well as picture and sound messaging are
also supported by the phone. T9 text entry, which is a technology that
makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is
built into the unit-- a plus for mobile email and text messaging users.
When
used with a Cingular data plan and the phone's USB data capability, the
phone can be used as a wireless modem for laptops and PDAs. A number of
handy software tools are bundled with the L1400 including a voice memo
recorder, a calculator with unit converter, a notepad, a calendar and
an alarm clock.

for capturing action scenes. Brightness and color balance adjustments
are also possible.
