Philips’ latest handset - Xenium 9@9j, which they have demoed at this year’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona is also another mobile phone that has excellent battery life, which can last more than a month on standby, similar to other Philips cellphones in the 9@9j series. Besides, the long battery life, the cellphone can use standard AAA battery as the alternative power source. This is a great idea, as AAA batteries can be easily obtained from any grocery shops while your phone is running dry of battery during emergency.
Actually, the Philips Xenium 9@9j does not operate on the AAA battery. It uses advanced power management technology that makes use of the standard AAA battery as a backup only to lengthen the life of its Li-Ion battery, which is the battery used for its operation. Once the Li-Ion battery is running out of juice, the standard backup AAA battery will start kicking in and feeding the Li-Ion with power so your phone operation will not be interrupted.
The single AAA battery can boost the talk time and standby time from 2 hours to 8 hours and one week to a month respectively.
The specs of the Philips Xenium 9@9 are as follows:
* Quad band GSM (900/1800/1900/850 MHz)/GPRS connectivity
* 176×220 px 262K color TFT display
* 1.3 megapixel camera
* MPEG4, 3GP, H.263 video and MP3 and WMA audio playback
* FM Radio
* MIcrSD memory card slot
* USB 1.1, Stereo Bluetooth A2DP
