Good Points

It can do alot of different things and looks good

Bad Points

It took me a long time to work out how to use the phone and i can still not use some of the functions, the phone answers itself so i don't know people are calling and i can't find the function to turn it off, the phone is over complicated and has too many options that it takes a long time to find so everything take ages to do.

Good Points

Great phone with excellent features. This phone is great for watching movies on the go or listening to your favourite MP3's, GPS built in - get yourself satnav software and this is a great feature on a phone, plus it works a treat. Touch screen is responsive. To new users - the operating system may take a little getting used to, but you soon will be navigating the menus with ease. Call quality is good, lots of windows mobile shareware/freeware available for this phone, c/w 8gb of memory with the added benefit of a micro SD slot available for upto an extra 16gb of storage (24gb). I personally think this is a great phone and I'm still exploring it.

Bad Points

People complain about the battery life, and yes this could be better. But when you consider this phone comes with such a large screen and the backlights then I can live with charging it daily as I would expect a screen of this size to use more juice than my small screened SE W810i. Though this does depend on your usage, do invest in a car charger and a case. Do close applications that you have finished using and your phone will still run fast and be responsive.
