Good Points

I've had many, many phones over the years and I was always a Nokia girl but my previous phone was a Sony Ericsson and I was impressed by how user friendly it was. I wasn't disappointed by the C905 either - it's very stylish, has a BRILLIANT camera and the web browsing and GPRS are good. It's not the lightest of phones - I wouldn't recommend if you're the micro-gadgetry sort, but for anyone wanting a proper phone it's a good size - the screen is big enough to make the most of viewing photos and videos. Would definitely recommend this phone.

Bad Points

There are a couple of minor criticisms I would make - the memory could be bigger (it comes with only a 2gb memory card) and the battery wears down very quickly. In fairness though, this could simply be more pronounced as I tend to use the phone constantly for web browsing and listening to music. I've noticed that when the battery wears down to red it does seem to last a while before it dies completely. The one other minor flaw is that the screen orientation occasionally fails to change automatically as it should, but then that's a rare occurrence and it's not that much of an inconvenience.
