Advantages: Great cool look, simply menus, excellent picture quality

Disadvantages: Poor pc connectivity, touchscreen not for all, no cover for camera lense

I bought this phone after seeing several strong reviews for it. However, it does have some failings that you should keep in mind before going with it.

Firstly, the touchscreen does take some getting used to. It doesn't have the same satisfying feel as normal phones, but you do get used to it.

Also, the software it comes with is notoriously unreliable. Mine and others has great difficulty transferring data from the internal memory onto a pc.

The camera lense also lacks any protective cover of any sort.

Those are the negatives - if you can live with those then this phone is worth it. It's a lovely phone to look at and has a satisfying feel aesthetically. The menu system is simple and easy to grasp and not overcomplicated. The screen is great just to look at and of course there is a cool novelty to having a touch screen phone.

This is definitely no worse than any other of the touch screen phones currently around.

Summary: As good as any other touchscreen phone with just a few flaws to deal with
