This phone is an OK phone but there are quite a few little problems with it.

Looks

The looks are quite good with the buttons and the good colour. (I like silver) However, the phone itself is very big and is often rather annoying. The software that is built in does look good though and is actually rather easy to get to grips with. The phone is also really heavy which is a big disadvantage.

Functionality

The functions of this phone does have a few flaws. The phone does have blutetooth but it can only work with other NEC phones which is a big downfall of the phone. There is a camera on the outside and on the inside of the phone which I thought is rather useful and the quality of the camera is actually really good. You can only buy this phone on the 3 network which is a huge disadvantage as the network is rather expensive. The phone also has games and you can download some pretty good games. There is also a slot for a memory card which is useful but its near impossible to connect the phone to your computer to upload songs onto the inbuilt MP3 player. The battery does last for a long time (around 2 days) and there is also a spare battery that comes with the phone which is useful if you are going away to somewhere that you wont be able to plug your phone in to charge it. There is a GPS and compass but they are also very clumsy and difficuly to use.

A cheap phone though that is OK, but I would only recommend this phone as a first time phone or for someone that only uses a mobile for phone calls. Certainly not a phone for someone that is looking for a mobile with a lot of extra features.
