Hi, had this phone for a while now and it serves a purpose, i.e. it rings, which is all I really want from a phone. However, Here a few points about the phone, some of which I've not really bothered with but are still there should You need them.
The phone comes in a slick Grey box, it is well package to the point of making it tricking getting into the actual box. It is a sleek and attractive looking phone.
Advantages: ************** 1: The screen is large and quite bright which makes it superb for viewing videos and pictures. Although I've not really used the video part but have regularly used the picture side of things.
2: The phone is supplied with a software package that is straight forward and easy to use, it guides and helps you with tasks such as organizing files, phonebook entries, calendar and all music files. (My favourite)
3: The phone can hold up to 2000 messages! Which for some 'Texters' will be a huge bonus, no need to delete old messages.
4: The phone has a superb voice recognition system making easy to use Voice Dialling.
5: Reception where I live is awful but I have found with this phone not to be a problem at all.
6: The phone, of course, comes with Bluetooth, MMS, SMS, and to be honest, crystal clear photo quality.
7: The sidebars on the V8 are fully customizable and can be changed to suit the taste and mood of the user.
More on the Camera and Video: ************************************ A slideshow option can be used. Wherein pictures can be rotated, flipped, resized, changed into Black & White, (i.e. Negatives) and many more
The video camera gives fairly steady playback and superb sound quality. They can be downloaded to your computer where they really come into their own for picture quality.
The Battery: ************** The phone does comes with a 'battery saving' option which I have never needed to use. The battery is decent, just as good as any other phone. The only problem I found was that if you leave your Bluetooth on constantly the battery looses its charge very quickly, usually within a couple of hours.
Disadvantages: ****************** 1: Whilst in your pocket the music tracks can change themselves very easily by touching something in your pocket unless you have the lock on at all times.
2: The USB port is not easy to open and sometimes feels like you'll have to snap or break it to get in. it does feel fragile, hope I don't snap it one day.
3: Transferring music between Ipod and Phone can be long winded and a bit of a chore.
Opinions: *********** The features included with this phone are good. It looks quite stylish and is quite easy to use and navigate around. All in all a decent phone.
