Design and Display
At first glance, the Philips 298 showcases a compact design, measuring 97 x 47.5 x 13.9 mm and weighing just 82 grams. Its lightweight nature makes it a comfortable device to carry and handle, ideal for users who prefer smaller, pocket-friendly phones. The device employs a Mini-SIM, consistent with the tradition of the time, and features a TFT display that supports 256K colors. While the screen size is limited to 1.8 inches with a resolution of 128 x 160 pixels, it may not impress in clarity or vibrancy, offering a basic visual experience, operating at approximately 114 pixels per inch. The inclusion of a 4-way navigation key facilitates easy maneuvering through its interface.
