TS605

Toshiba recently announced TS605, a slim mobile phone that includes the same features as the TS32, the only difference being the colors it comes in and the fact that the TS32 is distributed on the Asian market, while TS605 is available in Europe.

While there are only two color options available for the phone's front side, black or silver, the rear casing comes in enough colors to please any person's needs, including green, classic champagne, fluorescent pink, aubergine and more, although the availability of color variants may differ by supplier or country.

Toshiba is also keeping the phone's design pretty simple and slim and, in my opinion, it's somewhat similar in design to the iPod Nano, sleek and slim as it is.

The TS605 is extremely light, weighing 79 grams, and measures 113mm x 47mm x 10.3mm so you'll have no problem carrying it around. What's also nice is that they managed to fit in some pretty great features despite its tiny case.

The TS605 is equipped with a 1.9 inch 262k color display, a 1.3 megapixel camera with 8x digital zoom and video capture for those special moments, Mp3 player with a built-in FM Radio and Bluetooth for connectivity, MMS and e-mail support. As for the basic features, the tri-band TS605 also has a Wap 2.0 browser, three embedded games and Java support.

The internal memory is not as large as one would expect, as the 5.5 MB provided may work for storing some photos but will not be enough for storing any music. So, in case you need to store MP3's, the phone also has a MicroSD card slot that supports up to 1GB optional memory card.


Feature packed and available in a range of stunning dual colour designs, the TS605 really is a phone to have fun with.

With a beautiful colour display, 1.3 mega pixel camera, MP3 player, FM radio, video record and playback and Bluetooth™ connectivity, you’ll always be where the action is with the TS605.

Fabulous colour display
You’ll be amazed by the TS605’s large and stunning colour screen. Supporting 262K colours it ensures that all your images are shown off beautifully.

The 1.3 mega pixel camera takes excellent photos and the 8x digital zoom ensures that every detail is captured. The TS605 can also record those special movie moments with great sound and picture quality to playback or store.

Support for SMS, MMS, EMS as well as email, ensures photos, video and sound files are easily shared with friends.

Expandable memory
Despite the TS605’s size, a large number of photos and video clips can be taken with the 5.5MB of internal memory. However, if that’s not enough, then the microSD™ card delivering up to 1GB of additional memory is available as an optional accessory. That’s a lot of memory for such a compact device.

Stay connected
The TS605 supports Bluetooth™ so you can connect to other Bluetooth™ compatible devices within a distance of 10 metres. The TS605 is also a tri-band handset, so you’ll never be out of touch.

If that’s not enough to keep you entertained, the TS605 is also an MP3 player with a built in FM radio so you can listen to your favourite tracks wherever you are.
