Advantages: Easy to use

Disadvantages: Position of red cancel button

Well I have to admit, initially I only selected this phone as it was 'free' with my contract. I had planned to take out the contract and sell the phone as I wasn't after a new handset, however when the set arrived and I had played around with it, I decided to keep it.

The camera takes some really good quality pics, some I have even printed off and you can't even tell they are from a phone. However in poor lighting, you get the absolute opposite, the kind that make you wonder if it really is a 3.2 MP camera, d'ya know what I mean?

I took my contract out with 3 who included unlimited use of free msn messenger, skype and ebay. Not sure if all network providers supply this feature, but the front screen has shortcut icons to msn and skype which makes it easy and accessible.

Never had any probs with the phone, battery lasts a good few days as I don't make or receive many calls on it.

Downside: When texting, if you accidentally hit the red button you return to the front screen. The message isn't lost but you have to go back to the message folder and retrieve it from drafts where it has automatically been saved, really annoying when it happens a few times. It usually happens when you are trying to insert a special character, you need to press the button on top of the red one and if you are fast texter you can bet your bottom dollar your finger'll slip!

Overall, it's a really easy phone to use, with a good camera for amateurs. The large screen adds to it's ease of use and it would suit anyone from kiddies to biddies!

Summary: Reliable and does the job
