Connectivity and Features

Connectivity is where the NEC e808y shows its age. Lacking modern features like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or a 3.5mm headphone jack, it underscores its role as a basic communication device rather than a multimedia hub. Positioned to operate on GSM and UMTS networks, the phone was suited to early adopters of mobile internet, supporting speeds up to 384 kbps via WAP browsing. However, in an age before smartphones, these speeds were sufficient for email, MMS, and basic web access.
