General Comments

I've had this phone for nearly a year now, and I'm very pleased with it. The integrated high-resolution camera takes good snaps every time, and the zoom and brightness adjusters make it easy to shoot what you want. The calendar and multiple alarm functions help organise your life, and the ring lights (very cool!) give it an extra splash of class when someone calls or texts.
There are three main downsides to this phone. Firstly, the unit is quite fragile: I had mine for two weeks and it stopped receiving any kind of signal (no calls or texts). I took it back, and the new unit has not developed this problem, so maybe it was an isolated incident.
Another issue, also mentioned on this site, is the difficulty in setting up WAP and MMS. To do that I had to contact my network and get them to help; I could not have done it myself. Thirdly, I have some concerns about the charger; it charges quite slowly, says the battery is full when it's not, and makes an audible buzzing sound when you plug it in.
Overall, this is a good phone, as the faults are few and non-intrusive, if you get your network to set up the WAP for you. The style and media applications (video, photo, themes, MP3 ringtones) will definitely appeal to young people, and the almost infinite customisation capability (many clip-on fascias, aerials, and changeable themes) will make it easy to make the phone unique to you.
