Hands-on review: 3's INQ Chat 3G – Twitter, Facebook, Skype and more

 

The updated device adopts a BlackBerry-esque form-factor in favor of the INQ1′s candybar, adding a full QWERTY keyboard to support a host of social messaging capabilities, including ‘push' email (via Gmail), Facebook access, Instant Messaging through...

On paper, there’s a tremendous amount of value packed into the INQ Chat 3G and for the most common apps and social web services, the phone has you covered. The built-in apps replicate almost exactly how I’ve set up my day-to-day and much more expensive...

INQ Mini 3G

 

It shares many features in common with the upcoming INQ Chat 3G, but the Mini 3G is a much simpler and more conventional device. There's a 2.2" 240 x 320 pixel display, a very basic 2 megapixel camera and 3.5G support, although there's no WiFi or GPS...

The INQ Mini 3G is being billed as the ultimate social networking phone. So what about it separates this cell from the rest of the phones in the market? Dare to find out?

Not micro usb

 

Seems like it would be useful- if the plug-in fit

NOT a micro usb, you know, the charger that every phone in America uses now ; If it worked, the cord would still probably be too short

Aircel's INQ Chat 3G is a very affordable 3G handset ready for social networking but with slightly sluggish UI.

UI is user friendly and easy to navigate; Very good battery life; Camera quality on the whole is decent

Sluggish UI; Facebook app is not user friendly; Audio player's volume is a little low

INQ Mini 3G mobile phone

 

Social mobiling on a budget?

Social network integration, affordable, HSDPA

For those who want a compact and affordable phone, which offers the integration of the major social networks, then the INQ Mini 3G is well worth a look. But do try the keyboard as we found this the most annoying aspect of the device
