Advantages: Screen, scroll, the leather back, style

Disadvantages: 2MP camera, battery life, a little wide for some

This is one of those phones that you must feel and touch and hold in your hand before you can fully appreciate the beauty and goodness. I had my hands on this beauty today and what can I say but very impressed with this handset.

This handset has not been around for too long but the price has gone down considerably so you can get a good deal from Vodafone nowadays. So, what did I find so interesting and exciting from this phone? Let's see what I have to say.

The design - this was the thumbs up I must say, the leather back and steel frame with shiny plastic for the keyboard, was really stylish. The display - this was the clencher, as the screen looked like a laptop. Very fine, wide screen was perfectly showing the pictures icons and every pixels brilliant. The keypad was good too, with ergonomic shape so that the smallness of the keypad is benefited. The scroll in the middle, is somewhat difficult to use at first, since it is not 100% sensitive, but after a while, I was able to navigate fully without problems - it is one innovative thing to have on a handset.

For others, it is like a windows mobile a little, but everything looks professional and well layed out. The downside is the batterlife and the camera, which is only 2MP, not very decent in our modern technology world, but the 2MP camera did produce good quality pictures. Interface is snappy due to the fast 630MHz processor, and the internal memory is 1GB, expandable.

An extremely fashionable professional business device!
