Chi-Mei UMA Smartphone Passes FCC

Jun 15, 2006, 2:44 PM by (staff)

The Chi-Mei Smartphone which we previewed at CTIA this year has now passed FCC approval. The Debussey (DBS) is a quad-band GSM/EDGE candybar style smartphone running Windows Mobile Smartphone 2003 SE. It includes many of the latest software updates to the 2003 platform including Windows Media Player 10 and a file explorer. In addition to GSM, the DBS includes a Wi-Fi radio that can be used to make voice or data calls using UMA technology. The DBS also features Bluetooth, a 1.3 Megapixel camera and a Micro SD card slot. T-Mobile is expected to launch UMA this summer. They have not announced whether this will be one of the handsets they will offer.

As T-Mobile continues to expand its 5G network, PCMag reports that the company has updated its coverage maps to differentiate between its faster "Ultra Capacity" 5G and its slower but more widely-available "Extended Range" 5G. T-Mobile's 5G Ultra Capacity network uses a mid-band frequency (2.5 GHz, AKA band 41, which was inherited from Sprint) that offers faster data speeds than most sub-6 GHz 5G, and much better coverage than mmWave 5G.
