Nokia 5800 App Review: BrightLight v1.00(0)
Control Switch
As you may have noticed by now, Ovi Store has been brimming with a new set of applications for the last few days. As on Friday, I was not able to download any of these new applications, but things changed towards good as the weekend progressed. I successfully downloaded and installed some of these new applications and the best part is most of them are actually very useful applications. I will start with an application, which if you ask me should have been built-in into the s60 fifth edition OS but when a third party developer is providing it for free, there is no pointing in complaining about it, right? continue their goodwork and with BrightLight, they bring an easy-to-use torch light function to our 5800, that utilises the two LEDs of the camera flash for illumination and not the screen as with , reviewed earlier.
Installation
BrightLight can be downloaded for free from the ovi store client. The installation file is around 370 kb and after installation it takes up around 450 kb of space on the phone memory/memory card (depending on where you install it). Its one of the most compact applications and installation is done in a blink of an eye.
Features
BrightLight is a very easy-to-use application and the only control option is the touchscreen switch which is the only screen of the application. There are basically two controls: ON and OFF, which are self explanatory and there is nothing much to elaborate on this. However, the application does make good use of the LEDs of camera flash as a torch which do a great job of illumination. As we discussed during the , a torch application using LEDs for illumination is light on battery usage as well as being more efficient in illumination.
Pros
- Easy-to-use interface
- Light on battery consumption
Cons
There are none that I can think of. Share with us if you come across any bugs in this application.
Verdict
BrightLight may probably be the simplest application but it answers the most sought after feature from 5800 users. I am very much impressed with Offscr Technologies as they are churning out one impressive app/game after another for quiet some time now. They have to be the best developers for s60 fifth edition today and BrightLight should be installed on every 5800 shipped to this date.
