Advantages: Long battery life

Disadvantages: Not very functional

I'm a bit surprised about the high rating on this phone but then I guess it depends what you've had to compare it too. I got this as the contract was very cheap on it and it seemed to have all the features I needed.

I am a basic mobile user - text and phone calls only - but I enjoy using touch screen phones. I found everything very long winded with this phone. Nothing is particularly quick or easy. An example of that is when you make a call if automatically locks so you have to press the unlock button before you can access the keypad or put it onto speaker phone. Texting is also not as simple as it could be with no quick access to symbols or numbers. It also comes with very little included on the phone - no games and suchlike.

On a plus side the battery lasts ages and it does its job while looking decent enough. This is certainly not for people who want something high tech and efficient and whilst I probably wouldn't bother with it again it is good value for money. Not the best on the market but it does the job.

Summary: Good value for an average phone
