General Comments

The NEC e616v is a greatly featured phone with the added bonus of video calling. The handset also has useful features like handset accessible e-mail client and a media player, but the battery life is abysmal! Though this is due to the fact that good reception is hard to come by on the '3' network and the phone is constantly switching modes between '3g' and '2g'. Although at times the handset will seem to have a mind of its own, though this seems to be mostly down to inherent software problems which seems to be the norm on modern 'high grade' mobiles. The media player is a great feature where you can watch video clips and listen to full length music tracks. You can also store play lists and voice files on the built in 19mb memory. The bonus is that you can insert a memory card up to 128mb, at a premium of course. All in all the handset is great value for money but to sum up it is a good handset let down by the network.
