This phone is value for money because of the wide variety of features it offers like push-to-talk, radio,a good high res VGA camera, the 180 degree swivel of the screen are very useful. Battery life is relatively good, and the symbian OS on the phone offers quick access to various applications with ease, its quite fast. On the downside the voice recorder cant catch live music without a lot of ambient noise but its decent.
Added benefits of having expandable memory is a definite plus, the OS however slows down when a 256MB MMC is used, it works best with the included 36MB and 512MB cards. The sound quality on this phone is very good, crisp and clear, the louspeaker is also very good with a high level of volume.
Radio is a big benefit on this phone, tuning the channels automatically is quick and precise. Customisation of tones ranging from setting mp3s to normal audio clips is easy on this phone for everything from the alarm chime to the ringtone of the phone. Video quality on this phone is relatively good though the OS slows down on playing high res videos.
All in all this phone is a very good buy and is very useful to carry around presentations also as it has MS office programs and a wireless presenter software included. Other applications include mightybackup (to back up files from phone to computer), try'n'buy (for free trials of games and software from the site), a good explorer for GPRS n much more.
