Good Points

1.Huge Display with appreciable screen resolution
2.Camera is not good but just OK.


Bad Points

1.Keypad very hard to press
2.Menu Navigation System bit difficult
3.When receiving calls the phone number of the caller is not displayed only the callers name is displayed.
4.As on other mobile phones date and time is not displayed on [normal mode] screen - if other to view time you must press navigation buttons [U D L F] - this time display is also not very good as date is displayed as 12/12 day/month no year no alpbetic day of week. - I forgot to mention that after some time when the phone is idle the phone will switch to powersaver mode where the time is displayed - but this time is displayed in 24 hr format only no 12 hr format. 4. Photo album and picture gallery navigation is but slow and very difficult - to view any picture select the picture from list and press VIEW button - now to view another picture say what button must be pressed [up or down or left or right] NOOOOOO it not like that, you must press back select another picture and then press view again - rubbish this is the worst part of this phone with its hard to press buttons.
5. In other phones like Nokia I've seen different Folders in Gallery but In this phone there's no folder system.
6.The Screensaver is very slow - I create my own screensavers from computer using 2D animation softwares but they play very slow in the phone.
7.Most of all the battery is very weak - if I fully charge the phone - then it will last for only 1 working day i.e. 12 working hours only.
8.The phone hangs sometimes - I think every phone hangs once in a life time.
9.I have uploaded mid files and mmf files (ringtones) to the phone and the funny part is the sound of mmf files are louder than mid files.
Over all I say the phone is bit slow to respond


General Comments

Overall I say this phone is a good one and I like it as this is the type of phone I've always wanted to have - but I had some minor problems with the phone which I've mentioned in the summary of bad points - rest of its features are cool.
