Welcome back to Budget Gadget reviews. Today we will be reviewing the Classic Microphone. With a price of $4.46, you can’t go wrong with this microphone.

A quick overview of what this review series is about. We will be reviewing different products from time to time from the website Budget Gadgets. The types of products we will be reviewing range from USB gadgets to novelty lighters, and lasers to cycle accessories. You would struggle to visit Budget Gadgets and not see something you’re interested in.

This product has a very professional look and feel about it. It has been designed to look like the Brauner Phantom Classic Basic Large Diaphragm Cardioid FET Microphone. Even if you don’t use this microphone, it looks good on your shelf. It’s a good addition to my film making collection.

The recording quality of this product isn’t as good as the flexible microphone which I previously reviewed. However the recording quality isn’t too bad either. You will be able to see some tests that I made in the YouTube video below this post. The test results proved you can stand about 7ft away from the microphone before the recording starts to go quiet. Here is a list of the features to this microphone -

■Outstanding transparency and natural sound reproduction
■An extended 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response
■Flat response curve for accurate reproduction of sound sources
■Low noise and high output clipping level
■Cardioid polar pattern
■Low RF susceptibility
■1.5m noise filtering cable
A disadvantage to this microphone is that the actual microphone itself is covered up by a plastic casing. This does compromise the recording quality a little, as it picks up quite a lot of background noise. Which isn’t good when recording voice overs? The best aspect to this microphone is the 1.5 meter cable. This is good for when you have your audio-in outputs around the back of your computer or desktop, the cables will be able to reach without stretching. The cable is also efficient because you can stand up and use it like a reporter’s microphone.

This microphone can be used for home recording, or it can be used as an internet phone, on Skype. So you are not limited to what you can do with this product. That’s why I gave this microphone from Budget gadgets a 8 out of 10.

It has a nice convenient button to use the flip open option in the phone.

LG KE970 – Once you take a glance at this mobile phone, you would notice that the design is not like any other mobile phones you see in the market. Right then and there, it would give you the impression that it is a high-quality phone. It is made up of real stainless steel and measures 99.8mm x 50.6mm x 13.8mm. Once you get a hand of the Shine, you will feel that the phone, weighing 119 grams, is exceptionally solid. The mirror-like 2.3 inches screen can display up to 262,000 colors. But because of it’s design, the Shine makes it difficult to be used outdoors. You can’t easily read what is on the screen since you won’t be able to see the menu, only your reflection.

LG VX9400 – The LG VX9400 is the quality handset launched by the company. The phone is quite attractive because of its swivel design and large screen. It looks similar to the basic slider phone.

Only navigation buttons are displayed on the front and the handset rotates to the left side to get the numerical keypad visible.

Nokia E50 – Nokia is a name which needs no introduction. It has always provided with excellent options in mobiles for its consumers.

Russell Coutier absolutely loves technology; specifically in cell phones and the mobile industry. But, as common as cell phones are, so are the spam and prank callers. Use a reverse cell phone number lookup service to know who’s calling.

Evaluations of Mobile Phones

Samsung MM-A900 (SPH-A900) – With huge success of Motorola Razor V3, cell phone companies converge on the new trend that Razor settled. Samsung was the first one to reproduce its own version of Razor by introducing MM-A900 in the market. No doubt Samsung was highly successful in eliminating the few lacks in its rival and made an “all in one” cell phone. MM-A900 is a fashioned, flip open cell phone available in charcoal black. It is sleek and slim. The cell phone body dimensions are 3.9′ by 2.0′ a slightly bigger than its rival. It also weighs a bit more than Razor i-e 103 grams. The slightly bigger design has an advantage, that It can be realized vibrating while on the move.

Sony Ericsson K800i – Sony Ericsson started the K series about 5 years ago with introduction of K300i which dominated the market with feature of “unlimited video recording”. The series continues to attract cell phone freaks as Sony Ericsson merger extending the series with cell phones like K800i. 800i comes in grey black combination and looks like a James Bond’s high technology cell phone. In fact it really is a high tech cell phone with size measure of 4.1 by 1.9 by 0.9 inches and a weight a little above 4 ounces. The black candy bar cell phone feels good while holding on. – change

Nokia 7370 – Nokia have always applied new and innovative things in cell phones, with L’Amour fashion phone line, Nokia generated a lot of revenue by introducing cell phone like 7370. Nokia 7370 doesn’t look like a cell phone because of its small screen and ‘no keyboard’ feature. The swivel designed cell phone comes in brown and amber color. The cell phone has normal dimensions of 3.5 by 1.7 by 0.9inches and weighs about 3.7 ounces. The swivel mechanism works fine but looks a bit odd that’s why the price of 7370 rapidly decreased after it was first introduced. – change

Nokia 7360 – Nokia being the largest mobile manufacturer in the world usually come up with mobiles that are engineered to function well rather than look good. However trend changed when we got Nokia 7360 in market. The cell phone targeted those buyers who want to have a different style mobile cell phone. The luxury cell phone with physical dimensions 105 x 45 x 18mm and weight around 92g is not cumbersome to use either. The cell phone feels good in palms and is quiet comfortable while grabbing. Nokia 7360 has got a 128 x 160-pixel screen that is able to process 65000 colors at good quality but not that much good, as compared to Nokia’s unique standards.

HTC 8125 – The HTC 8125 is a slide phone with lots of special features that will make this phone a favorite. The slide phone design allows for a nice, small compact size. The corners and edges are slightly more defined then clamshell or flip phones, but rounded enough to offer s good degree comfort to the hands. Especially on those long calls. The phone folds down to a nice size that is perfect for storage in purses and cases. It will also fit nicely into most pockets. It has internal antennae as well.

Samsung SCH-u740 – Samsung always provide the best for the least. SCH-u740 follows the tradition. Sporty as well as fashioned looking SCH-u740 weighs about 3.6 ounces and just 0.5 inches thick. This flip open cell phone works on tri band and has dual display. External display is 1.1 inch and can show basic operations without flip opening the phone again and again. The main screen is brilliant 2.2 inches with resolution of 176×200 pixels. SCH-u740 comes in silver, black or white colors.

Russell Coutier is an avid tech freak; specifically in the mobile industry. As common as cell phones are nowadays, so are spam and prank callers. Fight back with a reverse cell phone number lookup service and find out who’s calling.

Quick Cell Mobile Critiques

Palm Treo 680 – We have been discussing Palm Treo personal digital assistants in our reviews. The company never failed its customers in a single feature. With companies like Nokia, Samsung, Motorola and specially Sony Ericsson coming up with cell phone with ‘all in one’ multimedia capabilities, Palm Treo continues its trend to provide users the best for the minimum price. The 680 by Palm Treo was announced in October 2006 and was released at the end of November. The device comes in traditional Palm Treo style. The available colors are graphite, crimson, arctic and copper. However graphite was sold a lot because it was the only color on the Cingular package.

Samsung SGH T809 – Reviewing all the cell phones with respect to their design, we would see that almost every famous cell phone has to be very slim. Motorola Razr V3 got popularity just because of this. Famous manufacturers have introduced their own ‘Razr’ to complete with Motorola but so far so good, nothing is able to beat Motorola Razr. Here we are about to review Samsung SGH-T809, a slim cell phone rival of Razr. The cell phone measures 3.9×2x0.6 inches. And weight a little above 3.5 ounces. The cell phone is a bit heavier than its rival but the slider cell phone appears good in black color. The slider mechanism works fine as it needs only a finger to slide up or down. The 4 way navigational key is responsive most of the time along side the two soft keys.

Palm Treo 700wx – Palm Treo has been providing personal digital assistants (PDAs) with high quality and quantity of features. The 700wx of this very company was released with some new and unique features as compared to its successors eg Palm Treo 700w. The PDA can be used as a mobile modem for a laptop, on the way for businessmen. The PDA supports wi fi as well so network connections aren’t any problems if one have Palm Treo 700wx in his hand.

Nokia N91 – Nokia N91 was released way back in April 2005. Since then the cell phone got respectable number of buyers. But even then, N91 is being somewhat pin down by its Sony Ericsson and LG rivals. The cell phone is a bulky slider. We said bulky because the silvery N91 got its physical size as at 4.4 by 2.2 by 0.9 inches and 5.8 ounces and weight just below 6 ounces. Even then, it is constructed so well, it still looks awesome in hands.

Motorola V551 – Motorola has a trend of providing users with cell phones that are having high end features for a very low cost. The famous V series is just following the trend and today we are about to review V551, a cell phone which clearly outclassed every other cell phone in terms of its cost benefit ratio. The flip open V551 is a sleek colorful handset with perfect physical dimensions. The cell phone is externally blue and metallic combination color which looks really cool.

Samsung SGH-X700 – Samsung X series has come up with few handsets that left their mark on cell phone markets. X600, X100, and X210 and a lot more in the X series assembly line, were equipped with latest features as well as tested with new innovations. Today X700 is the handset we would be reviewing. The candy bar X-700 is somewhat similar to other cell phones like X620. The cell phone is sleek and slim and available in black and silver combination. The matt finish of X-700 makes it look more sophisticated and business class hand set.
