Great phone for the features, everything you could need in a phone. One drawback is the small buttons, my clumsy hands have trouble getting stuff done right. Another thing to watch out for is the large screen, looks great, but can break easily if dropped, especially with the phone being slightly heavier than normal. Overall, really worth it.

I have had this phone for just over 18 months now and am actually gutted that I'm due an upgrade because I love it so much. The walkman is top notch and the headphones included are really comfortable and easy to wear, they also block off a lot of external noise.

The camera is OK I wouldn't say it takes top quality professional shots but it serves its purpose and I do use it from time to time. All the features and the menus on the phone are easy to navigate and use, which I love because I'm easily confused.

The radio is also handy if you can't decide what to listen to but you must have the headphones attached to use it. The web browser is not brilliant as it is a little bit slow, but it served me well as I only ever used it to look up the odd thing when I was out and about. Overall this is a great and very easy to use phone.

A very nicely designed unit, and the only real complaint I have is that the keys are perhaps a little too small.

Very good clear display, and the Walkman music player is incredible - especially if you replace the supplied headphones with a superior set (I use a pair of Sennheisers, and the sound quality is great).

This 'phone is currently available at Orange stores for £49.99 (Nov '09), and I don't think there's anything to challenge it at that price.

Generally a good looking phone (I have the grey-silver version). Almost a smart phone without the bulkiness of an iPhone. Internet browser works well and battery life is perfect.

Major downsides are the frequent software crashes. This can happen when browsing the internet and even when making a simple phone call.

Great phone, but needs software update or someone with that extra bit of patience. Otherwise I recommend it.

This phone is very easy to use and has loads of features. I needed a phone with long battery life as I do like to talk alot, that's what I mainly use the phone for. This phone has excellent battery life.

Camera is just ok, not the best but I wasn't bothered. I like the slim line shape, so easy to fit everywhere, light and nice size screen. Had phone for a year and a half now and has just started to have problems, switches itself off! but then maybe it's becasue I've dropped it a couple of times!

Overall I really like this phone and would recommend it.
