Philips Xenium 9@98 Connectivity and Features

Connectivity and Features

Focused on basic connectivity, the Xenium 9@98 operates on GSM 900/1800 bands, without support for GPRS or EDGE, emphasizing voice and text communication over data services. Lacking Bluetooth, WLAN, GPS, and USB capabilities, its communication features were limited, but adequate for basic calling and SMS messaging. The inclusion of WAP 1.2.1 allowed for very basic web browsing, reflecting the early days of internet on mobile. For entertainment, the phone included three games and supported downloadable polyphonic ringtones, which allowed a degree of customization and personal flair.
