Now lets start

First about the screen The Screen is pretty big 3.1 inch in size and still not the biggest but is definitely bigger than the Samsung Star and Nokia phones at the same price. The color reproduction is awesome. You just feel like watching more and more as it gives you the feeling a small OLED TV in your hand.

Camera      The Camera is 5mega pixel which gives you a max picture size of 2592x1944 pixels and is autofocus. The LED flash is so strong that it blinds us for a while. Also it has Geo-tagging, Face detection, Smile detection and Blink detection. I was unable to get the aperture, F number of this camera . The Auto settings worked well in good light but when the sun goes down you better make the settings manually as the auto settings does not work well in low light. You got image stabilizer too. exposure meter has three settings available ( auto , Spot and center weighted ). touch these settings only if you know about them or else leave it in auto mode. There are three focus mode also ( Macro, Auto focus and face detection) . You can also have grid lines on the screen  Video can be taken at QVGA at 30fps.

Music The noise levels are amazingly low and also the stereo cross over is also pretty less and is comparable to Iphone. This phone has 5.1 channel support and WowHD for crystal clear sound ( nahh not crystal clear ) but I felt it very clear . It produced good high frequencies but was unable to produce low frequency which makes you feel longing for good Bass. The down side is that you do not have the option to edit equalizer but you have a pretty good settings of equalizer pre set available. You also get the cover flow same as in Iphone and standard 3.5mm jack to plug in any head phone. If you hate Bass then this phone has a very good music for you .

Interface You can see that the interface is similar to samsung star. The screen is very responsive but is not that good as you have in an Ipod touch or the Iphone. But at this price at this point of time the screen response is good. It has three separate home screens which you can set different wall papers and widgets too. Even the main menu has three screens which scrolls horizontally. While searching contacts you feel a little lag when you scroll through the phonebook. Though this phone has a 800Mhz Qualcomm processor it makes us think that the speed is not enough. The Motion gate is wonderful as it shows how you can tame this phone. You can shake it and launch an application accordingly. Thats cool . But samsung has this feature in other phones as well. 

FM radio  The interface is very much ordinary and you have to always go to the favourite option to change to next channel. That lets you down as the arrow keys only searches and does not navigate to the next channel. 

MessagingMessaging is good. You get the Qwerty keyboard automatically when you rotate the screen landscape. T9 dictionary is also present.

Other features a short look up* The Browser is good and works extremely well. You can open upto 5 pages at the same time. The organizer has all the basic features you need. GPS, Alarm clock,  Voice recorder and all the basic requirements are all packed in. Though you have a built in GPS and GPS navigation software is missing and you can download them. The Battery back comes to 3 days for an ordinary usage of one hour of talking each day, But if you do listen to music then it goes to only one and half days. If you also watch videos then you will need to recharge every day. Games are all very good but all of them are trial version and if you can spend a little to get the full version then they are cool.

So thats it.

Final verdict -A good phone if you are planning to just use it as a phone and does not have any intention to install many software then it goes fine. But if you are looking for many apps then this is not for you.
