Advantages: Keypad, looks

Disadvantages: battery, camera bad quality, data transfer rate very slow

I got this phone because of its elegant looks and good range of features. But was dissatisfied with the overall performance of the cellphone. Although it is good in terms of handling and looks but the features should have been more attractive at this pricing.

For instance the lack of a good quality camera. There is a VGA cmos camera with a dull resolution of 640X480 which the old monitors supported. The image looks good on phone screen but is very bad quality when you see it on computer.
The data transfer rate through USB cable is also very slow. I have compared this to other devices and it takes 50% more time to transfer a small file. Same applies to the bluetooth transfer as well.
The screen is of good quality but is very small in size.
The battery backup seems decent but cannot be compared to Nokia and Sony Erricson mobile phones. I had to charge the batteries almost everyday! The battery hardly has a talk time of 2 hours. When I have to talk about half an hour I have to plug in charger everytime. That is awful experience while long travels. The sound quality rocks. The speaker output is very good but the earphone output is not that good. Although pretty decent.
The best feature is the ergonomic keypad which gives ease while typing SMS and dialing numbers.
