Filipinos can now make calls to their loved ones abroad via the Internet and also enjoy all the features provided in the regular GSM (Global System for Mobile) communications platform with the new Seiche SPD 3380 handset, the first Wi-Fi/GSM hybrid handset from Aeonic Seiche.
Now available at Aeonic Seiche’s authorized distributors, the Seiche SPD 3380 handset is the Philippines’ first mobile phone that utilizes both Voice over the Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology and the standard GSM for mobile phones.
“We are honored to introduce the first VoIP-GSM dual phone in the Philippines. Filipinos, especially those with families and friends working abroad, can take advantage of its VoIP capability to contact their loved ones anywhere in the world, anytime, and still retain their GSM number,” said Aeonic Seiche’s Geoffrey Chen.
As a VoIP phone, the Seiche SPD 3380 allows users to make calls using broadband Internet connection. It carries a standby time of 180 hours and a talk time of 160 minutes, enabling users to communicate with the world without the need of a cumbersome PC for as long as they are in a wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) hot spot.
Outside a Wi-Fi hot spot, users can use the Seiche SPD 3380 for calls or SMS and MMS under the system of local wireless service providers. For this purpose, the phone accommodates a Subscribers’ Identification Module (SIM) card provided by the telecommunications companies.
In addition to its call and messaging functions, the innovative phone is also packed with a 1.3-megapixel camera, MP3 and video recording capabilities, and a SD card slot for larger memory.
The launch of the groundbreaking Seiche SPD 3880 is in line with Aeonic Seiche’s commitment to create a digital city in Metro Manila. It followed up the recent launch of the SeicheTunnel on EDSA, a breakthrough Wi-Fi service that makes mobile Internet connectivity along the country’s busiest highway possible.
The Aeonic Seiche Group of Companies is a leading provider of wireless digital solutions for Internet broadband and multimedia communications.
With affiliates in Hong Kong, Taiwan, China, Japan, and the Philippines, Aeonic Seiche combines the resources of its related entities to provide the most technologically advanced and highest quality products and services.
The Seiche SPD 3380 is initially offered at P9,900 with a monthly fee of P1,000, which is good for unlimited VoIP calls within the Seiche Call Network. However, this is separate from the fee that telecom companies would charge for their GSM services.
