This is a cheap little phone that offers a realistic alternative to the famous Nokia phones, it's small, lightweight and slim, has a nice colour scheme and is childishly easy to use.
The jotter wheel and rolling menus have a nice feel to them and the graphics are fairly imaginative. You get a choice of a couple of different wallpapers which are very average looking, but hey, you can attach picture and sound files to txt messages so the sky's the limit really.
This phone gives you some lovely features making it almost feel like a pda, rather than a mobile, it's great to have a mobile email service and a decent forarding feature that actually works, along with a hold feature, multiple call facility, and conferencing. The phone book gives you capacity for zillions of numbers, and the ability to store up to 5 numbers in each field.
WAP services are ok (as far as wap goes) and the scheduler is user friendly. The world time feature is useful and it also gives you a list of the country codes. The clock/alarm clock/date facility is reliable and easy to set up. I can't say I think much of the calculator or the games, but they are there if you get really bored!
Text messaging is easy and reliable and call historys, and set up are user friendly. The phone gives you a fair selection of ring tones, and of course you can record your own. Also has a group ring tone facility, but I never used it personally.
I must say that the vibration mode is very wet compared to the nokia and the charger jack is (annoyingly) prone to breaking. Although I have dropped the phone itself several times and (touch wood) it ain't busted yet. the battery lasts me for days!!
