General Comments

I have owned the V8088 for the past 10 months now and I must say that I am very satisfied with its number of features. THe iTAP feature allows for quick entry of SMS messages and the v shaped light LEDs on the front panel can glow in different colours representing friends or colleagues. Voice recognition dialling is also very helpful. I have accessed WAP sites using the phone and I must say that it still needs a lot of improvement, not the phone but the whole WAP thing itself. The user interface of the phone is a little quirky and takes some time to get used to, however after a while I am able to figure out how to access the menu functions. I must admit that the Nokia cell phones user interface is much more intuitive. What I don't like about the V8088 is that it is extremely fragile, I recently damaged my LCD panel when in the haste of getting out of the car with the phone in my trouser pocket, the phone was pressed against the edge of the door. I heard a crack and the LCD panel is ruined. I didn't remember pressing it so hard, besides, the phone had a original Motorola cell phone semi hard jacket on. I spent about ₤50 repairing the phone where the entire flip top is replaced. Overall I have gotten used to the phones quirks and has grown quite attached to it. It has a huge memory storage for your phone numbers and it even can act as a short voice message recorder.
