Advantages: Looks stylish, easy to use
Disadvantages: Speakers don't seem to work after a year
I've had this phone for over a year now, and it is a very decent phone, and considering it came free with my £15 a month contract with Orange, I can't really have too many complaints about it.
Let's start off with the camera. It has flash meaning that good quality photos can be taken at night as well, and at 5 mega pixels, the quality is really good for a phone. The video camera could have been improved, but I rarely use it for that.
The phone itself is touchscreen and I haven't had any problems with this, every button I press works, and there is no problem with the phone being touch screen.
To me, this should seem like a phone that ought to have wifi capabilities, but it doesn't for whatever reason, so the £169.99 price tag on amazon seems a bit too expensive for my liking.
There is also an Micro SD slot which is useful, although I did not get a micro SD card with it, but I bought a 1gb one which is more than enough for my needs.
However, the one disappointment is that very recently the speaker on my phone doesn't seem to work from time to time, meaning that occasionally I cannot hear what the person on the other end is saying; this is thoroughly disappointing because this has never happened before, and that has only happened very recently, and orange say that I must wait until the end of contract before I can get a new phone.
However, overall, I would recommend it, but perhaps not for the £169.99 price on amazon.
Summary: Good phone with good features, but be wary of reliability.
