General Comments

Many have written bad reports about the NEC e616V, ok! Let's get one thing straight before I start, it's not as bad as they make out! The phone itself is a 3G phone, if you don't want a phone which can make video calls, plays mp3s or makes videos, don't buy it, go for a smaller Nokia which suits you! It has fantastic picture quality, plays music videos and the games a good laugh when you're bored! It has many other weird and wonderful features that will keep you amused too.

The negatives! Battery life is short, however, battering it on the internet and watching tons of videos a day will make it run down quicker, the odd picture here and there with a few videos a long the way and I can squeeze 2 days out of it! Secondly 3 has poor network coverage, however only for video calling, I find voice calling to be near perfect! 3 is growing all the time so this will increase anyhow!

It really can be a walking PDA if you want it to be, you can add more memory to store loads and loads of stuff on!

The 3 packs I believe are the best thing going. If your a heavy contract user, around 30-40 quid a month, then 25 quid a month gets you 500 texts and 50 mins, along with 1.50 emergency credit. It is value for money.

Be daring, have a butchers at the NEC, its like marmite, you either love it or hate it lol!
