I bought this mobile a month ago as my first phone and i wanted a stylish slider. i had been looking at a samsung j700 as it looked like a good value buy. when i went into orange store i saw this mobile. it has a smooth sliding mechanism and stylish crome softkeys. the phone comes in two colours, black and purple, both priced at £35. it has a larger screen than some phone twice its price. the battery life is not great, but that's because i spend all the evenings playing with it's camera and video recorder. the features are great, and it even comes with a sweet sidebar as expected from expensive phones. the camera is a VGA (which is about 0.5 mega pixels), but comes with great effects, panoramic mode, frames (as in glasses and a fake nose) to embarasse your pals, and a mosaic mode. the music player is good, as music players are, and the phone comes with 16mb of memory- a memory card can be inserted (up to 2gb with orange) and files can be simply transferred across (the music player can still play files on the memory card). the themes are good- black and blue, green and yellow, white and blue. It is a best buy for a first phone.
