Performance
The camera seemed to have trouble letting in enough light for some shots. There's no FM radio, but music playback quality is fine. Battery life is also good,
The user interface is mostly well thought out, and the vibrating response really helps.
Pros
Good battery life.
EDGE and GPRS technologies.
XHTML and NetFront gives quick access to the internet.
5 megapixel camera.
Cons
Shots are not clear.
Overall
It is a good camera phone with great design that would attract the user's attention.
