No doubt its a very handy useful phone but the major drawback is the battery life. I had to charge mine twice a day which defeats the whole logic of having a smartphone loaded with features but with no enough battery power! Gave mine as a gift after 3 days of use!
My observation: Not useful for a busy person.

Capacitive screens such as the one on this phone are made out of scratch resistant screens (unless you intentionally poke it with a knife). You put a screen protector on capacitive screen n you won't get any touch responses. Capacitive screens use your fingers static charge to activate responses, no pressure like resisitive (see, Nokia 5800 and the rest). You don't believe, just put on some gloves n try n use it.

> In reply to [deleted post]u dont need the software. juz charge it for 6 hours first without switching it ON. then connect to the pc or laptop with the USB cable. the phone will prompt you to press OK on a dialog box that appears so as to b able to access the external memory of 1GB that ur given for free with the phone. copy the things u wanna copy to it the copy stuff to your flashdisk, after you are done make sure you right click the drive formed by the memory card then choose EJECT. Then you can remove the plug from the PC.. That's it.

Browsing with it for an hour makes runs out the battery.

@Kabir - get a life and quit hating, u probalby dont even know where Kenya is on the world map. I'm a student and I own a sony Ericsson X10 Mini and that's not even my only smartphone. I think the Huawei U8150 is a bargain considering its features.

@kabir Go sit on a broomstick. Rotate. Counterclockwise. No Vaseline.
