Hi, Can you tell me if this phone has a mute feature when on call ? Very usefull when you are on a conference call and you have nothing to say but just to listen :). Regards, Utkarsh

I Called up Asus customer Support and got the answer myself. 1. The phone has a mute feature when on call, i.e. a mute button comes up when on call hitting which will get the mute activated. 2. USB charging is also available with phone. I liked the Asus customer support :).

Hi I got this mobile last weekend. Had been using o2xda11 for last 3.5 yrs, didn t want to part away with it, but charger, bettery .. all sthe started dieing outta ol age. Weight wise comparing with o2 I feel like heaven .. small gud thingy in hand. The feel factor is gr8. drawback.. small screen, compared to my o2., however I still feel good about this new device with GPS n WIFI. Help: I need help now in setting up GPS. I downloaded and installed google map in my mobile, after selecting 'Use GPS' in the Menu, it does nothing amazing which I was expecting instead I get message Seeking GPS sattelites (0) .. and a whole lotta a text after this gets failed. The GPS Catcher application is updated everytime I connect with my Lappy with Internet. Please let me know if I am doing anything wrong.. or if there is a way to get this thing started or mapped with GPS. 'My Location' also also doesn t work in the application saying ' Your Handset doesn t seem to be copatible with My Location Beta' Suggest some other application or link or if you have solution to this problem. Regards

If the person reviewing this phone has a problem in figuring out how to put in the SIMcard, he really shouldnt be reviewing phones, he should probably sell vegetables.

How can you blindly recommend the Touch ??? This phone is very useful for those who want GPS at a low price. Does the Touch have GPS ??? I hope you know a decent GPS module comes for nothing less than 6k (without display). The ASUS has everything the Touch has AND a Gps unit.

What good is a phone that may have many features, but can't get the basics right? The asus p320 suffers from low battery life and it doesn't hold the signal too well among few other flaws. Why would I recommend such a phone just because its got a GPS module. If somebody wanted a cheap but good GPS phone, I'd rather ask the person to get a Nokia 6110 navigator or increase the budget and get the HTC P3470 if he or she wants windows mobile specifically. Thus I said that the p320 looks good on paper, but after using it, it made me think otherwise.

I agree with Brendon. After using both the phones for a while ( HTC for Six months and Asus 320 for about 3 weeks) I feel like HTC touch is nowhere near Asus in terms of functionality. Battery life is decent for a phone this size and it lasts for a day and half without any troubles. I feel like the person who's reviewed has not used the phone for a decent time. I too had this kind of openion initially.

Again you are comparing apples to oranges. The HTC 3470 is a again not a perfect comparison with this phone as the HTC 3470 lacks Wifi which is rather big negative point. The main features of the P320 is its WM 6.1 OS and the GPS unit without which this is a very ordinary phone. Even the Nokia 6110 is a bad comparison as it lacks a touch screen and has Symbian OS not Windows. Very few people will buy this phone for its camera.

I agree with Rohan. His advice is very practical and it seems he talks only after throughly testing something.

does anyone know the asus service centre in the ncr or ghaziabad side. my phone is barely a month old and is constantly getting hanged. seems like there is a problem with the lock key on the RHS.

Is it me or is the author behaving like HTC is his long lost love, get over it, they wont let you keep the HTC diamond if you write this review.

This handset fails to catch the network where network signal strength is weak as compared to Nokia, SE handsets. Any solution to this problem?

by Pushkar, Mumbai, on Jul 27, 2008 02:19 PM, Report abuse   Reply

Wow, you really are dumb, the volume keys are used to switch the phone to vibrate, not the stylus.

Not to comment but to ask for advice. I want an affordable GPS phone. Do you think the asus p320 is a good buy. I read that data download is slow.

by vincent, kuala lumpur, malaysia, on Jul 27, 2008 12:06 PM, Report abuse

I have the phone, and its great. GPS is slow everywhere, i have a GARMIN GPS device and it takes 1 minute to find my position. The phone on an average takes 50 seconds to 1 minute 20 seconds initially after that its fast. There is no problem in its GPS.
