Advantages: Many easy to use features

Disadvantages: Camera is a bit slow.

I've had this phone for quite a while now and mostly I love it.
It's incredibly study, I know this because I've dropped it quite a few times and so far no scratches or damages. It has many features on it, basically all of which I've used at least a few times. The video camera and normal camera is pretty good quality, apart from the camera can take a bit too long to click and actually take the photograph.
For the camera, there is a flash/light feature, which I find I use quite a lot as a torch if I'm in the dark, it's incredibly helpful!
Sometimes I find if I'm sending a text then I'll accidentally change the language which is quite annoying. Or I'll find that I'll lean too much one way and the screen will flip, which is again quite annoying!
Mostly it's pretty easy to actually text on, which is good.
The memory on it is incredibly terrible, I had to buy a memory card for mine but that's because I like to keep some songs on there too, I don't think that without the memory card it even holds one song, which can be quite annoying but the memory cards aren't that expensive so it's not too much of a problem.
One of my favourite features about the phone is when you've got in plugged into a computer, apart from the obvious file changes and such, you can also send text messages from your computer, which I do quite often and actually have it plugged in right now! It makes texting a lot easier especially if you're sending a long text.
One problem I do consistently have with it is that when I've got it on silent, sometimes the profile will change itself to vibration off and I won't know when I've received a text message or when someone is calling me.
The battery for the phone is pretty good, mine can last a couple of days depending on how much I use it. If I'm using the internet then my battery drains a lot quicker but that much is obvious.

The internet feature on the phone is quite slow to load, but it does it's job. I can quite easily check and update facebook whenever I like, and also I was using it to check cinema listings the other night, which is really quite helpful when on the move.

Sometimes I find that my alarms won't go off, 99% of the time they do, but once in a while it just won't go off which can be incredibly annoying! The time I've wasted before...

Overall, it's a pretty good phone and I'd happily stick with it for a long time, it slides nicely into my jeans pocket and doesn't get in the way, and it's sturdy enough for me not to accidentally break it, I don't feel the need to have one of the protective covers or anything like that.
I'd suggest this phone to anyone! :)

Summary: Overall a great phone, serves me well.
