Advantages: Small, easy to use, excellent sound quality

Disadvantages: Videos take ages to download or don't work at all

I bought this phone as an alternative to the iPhone, which I found slightly annoying since everybody seemed to had one, and this one was smaller and offered the same features supposedly.

As far as music goes, it is an excellent device, storing at least 8GB worth of material, having excellent sound quality and being easy to use in this respect.

However, as far as the internet goes, a lot of the programs don't work (BBC iPlayer for example) and it is not very good for going on sites like YouTube - the videos either don't load up or take so long that you give up.

The phone is very easy to use and does have nice features, as well as good video quality (if you can actually get anything on there). It's a convenient size, smaller that the iPhone and also weighing less.

I think its a decent piece overall, but no substitute for the iPhone.

Summary: Good phone, but not a patch on the iPhone
