Helio recently rolled out its latest Helio Ocean, a dual slider phone built-in with GPS. Now you would surely like to know what is dual slider? So, slide horizontally and you will be provided with the QWERTY keyboard, and when you will slide it vertically, it’ll expose the numeric keypad. Helio Ocean is coming very soon to hit the selves this spring with the price tag of just $295.
Just similar to the other GPS-based Helio phones talked so far about by me, Ocean will also make best use of Google Maps allowing you to obtain driving directions right there on your headset. You don’t need any other devices like bluetooth GPS receivers or any more software.
Only ensure you obtain the All-In membership so that you don’t have to give extra amount for data charges. Besides driving directions, you will also be provided with access to local businesses. Apart from all that, Helio Ocean also allows you to geotag your pictures that can be taken by you with the on-board 2MP digital camera.
Ocean’s 2.0 megapixel camera will take advantage of Helio UP, which lets users take a picture with their device, tag it with metadata including a title, description, keywords and location information and upload it directly to Helio Album, Helio’s photo service. Helio UP is GPS-enabled, giving users the option of attaching their GPS coordinates to their photos.
Yes, of course you are also allowed to make use of microSD cards in your Helio Ocean upto 2GB! And the devoted music processor allows you to enjoy your tunes for 15 hours on a single battery charge.
