I bought this phone about a year ago now and as yet it has never done me wrong! It is easy to use, has helpful menus and useful features like an alarm clock that you can choose to go off every weekday or except sunday etc, and a calculator. Doesnt have a stopwatch though, which i find quite annoying. The game that is provided with it is terrible and you need to pay to download others. Despite this, it has stayed completely intact and unscratched which is amazing considering what it has been through! The camera is amazingly good quality considering such a small phone as is the video, though the funky swivelling camera takes a bit of getting used to as the picture sometimes appears upside down. The mp3 player came as a bonus as it was not something i had considered before, but it has an extremely small memory- only holding 3 or 4 full length tracks. You cant add external memory either which makes it almost useless. It looks cool and sits nicely in your hand- it is very easy to use, though texting can tend to be slow. Overall this is my favourite phone i have ever owned due to the look an ease of use, so i would recommend it to anybody.
Advantages: Easy to use, packed with features Disadvantages: Camera lens can't be hidden and protected, only comes with one game
I only bought this phone a few days ago so I've not played with everything yet. Having only ever used nokia phone before I found this surprisingly easy to use and navigate. It is packed with features that I've never had on a phone before - mp3 player, wake up alarm that can be set to go off every week day, every day except sunday, or every day etc. Little things that make life a little bit easier.
I like the feel of the phone, it feels solid and ... ...important feature for me.
The screen is large and clear and has a sharp picture, and the outside screen shows the number of who's calling which I've always liked.
All sorts of keys are customisable as well, so you can have shortcut keys to whatever you use most around the main button, and buttons that can do different things when you're on a call - not tried that yet, but I assume things like volume, hold, etc.
A really useful feature of this ...

Advantages: MP3/AAC Player, Video Phone, 3g Mobile Technology, Camera & Bluetooth Disadvantages: Memoery & Lack Of Games
I have had the phone since December 25th 2006, purchased from vodafone for just £40!. I have not been able to put the phone down for more than 5mins due to the amount of fun and enjoyment it provides. What with Bluetooth, 3g Internet, Video Camcorder and Video Calling i was spoilt for choice. I also found out that this phone can allow you watch Sky Tv thorough your mobile for a cost but its worth it.
I would definitely reccomend this phone to any ... ...be better but when you consider that bluetooth is rrunnignalong with 3g you cannot grumble at 48hours standby time and 8 hours talktime.
You also get a Usb Data cable to download photos and tunes direct from you phone to the pc or visa versa. You can also do this for the captured video. I also found that getting a good leather case helps keep the phone looking factory new.
The charge time is 2 hours.
I hope you found this review helpful. ...

Advantages: Good phone, bluetooth Disadvantages: doesnt take big pictures
I have this phone myself, and found there were quite a lot of things i could do with it. It offers quite a few things, for example, bluetooth, which is very handy as this means you can send files (pictures and videos) to friends mobiles, with bluetooth for free.
There is a downside to the phone, the screen is not that big for taking photos and videos, it only uses about half the screen to show them. Also, the battery runs down quite quickly.
