Helio Fin is the smallest and lightest mobile phone ever made with almost every feature of a bulkier phone included herewith. Available in a pretty impressive size, Helio Fin is considered as the thinnest flip phone.

Feature

Appearance

Helio Fin is weighing about 3.4 ounces. It is one of the slimmest phones around the world that its user may become reluctant just to put it down. It is so slim and apparently weightless that a user might even get careless about its existence in his pocket.

Truly speaking, the outer surface of Helio Fin is not at all impressive. It contains only a postage stamp size screen that displays time, strength of the available signal and life of the battery.

But the show begins as the user opens up the flip of the Fin. It will certainly welcome in a gorgeous fashion. It consists of a 2.25 inch display screen along with a wide and flat keypad. There is possibility that some of the users find them more comfortable with the actual key rather than flat ones, but the elegancy clicks on the beauty of the thinness that Fin offers to its users.

The phone contains volume buttons along the sides as well as proprietary port for charging and syncing as well as attaching to the headset. The phone also supports Bluetooth feature.

Communication

Likewise OCEAN, Fin also supports messaging features which includes integrated contact interface. The difference lies in its packaging pattern which is much lighter and thinner in nature. By using Fin messaging service, the user is able to get communicated through AOL, Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail, Earthlink and Helio along with different IM services like Windows Messaging, Yahoo Messenger, etc.

Multimedia

The phone is capacitated with advanced multimedia features including full-track music download as well as streaming video facilities. The visualization is quite outstanding. The phone is able to hold music while on call and then resume from where it paused.

Drawbacks

There are few drawbacks that can be identified. For example, the allocation of the microSD memory slot which is not easily accessible without the help of the manual as it is designed behind the battery. Secondly, there is no MS exchange support; however, the user may use their POP/IMAP accounts. Thirdly, it lacks OCEAN's QWERTY messaging support. Fourthly, the browser level is not up to the mark compared to the one available in Apple's Mobile Safari or Nokia.
