Advantages: Features, Walkman, Design

Disadvantages: Memory card

I got this phone about 16 months ago (it cost £99.98) as a christmas present, I had wanted this phone the minute I had a mooch through Currys, the design, shape and huge array of features with this phone made it very appealing. I have to say I have not looked back, and am not dissappointed at all, after 16 months this phone is still going strong as ever, but with most things you discover flaws which I did with this phone but I can only think of one major flaw apart from that it's all good :-)

Good points - The thing I love the most about this phone is the built in Walkman, there is no need to fork out for an MP3 player or Ipod when you have this. The 3G function is brilliant to make video calls and add a bit of variety to your ways of communication, you can think of it as having a webcam and microphone on your PC - same concept. The sleek design means you will not be embarrassed holding it in public, the slide function reveals a very stylish mirror type surface with makes the phone look very flash. The bluetooth, infared, camera, light (which can do morse code for SOS) are all pretty nifty features and add to the overall appeal of the phone. The phone itself functions great, calls are clear, everything works the way it should so thats all good.

Bad Points - The only real problem that I have had with this phone is the memory card that comes with it. Twice now I have had to fork out for another one, the memory card will suddenly become corrupt one day and that means you lose everything, songs, pics the lot. That is one point that is worth considering.


Overall it is a good phone I would definitely recommend.

Summary: Overall it is a good phone and worth considering when buying your next phone
