Looks great, feels great but has no battery life whatsoever. Very annoying.

Nice looking phone if a bit big but the software on it is dodgy! have had 2 replacements in 2 weeks. That's 3 fones! How ironic! First one, I set to autolock and it decided not to unlock. second one I changed the wallpaper to something I uploaded and it reset and kept resetting so I couldn't use it. Third one the USB port doesn't detect the cable! This is an unacceptable quality issue for a Japanese company!

is it possible to use a sim card from vodafone or orange in this phone. have heard the sim cards for 3G run on different voltage than other cards which make it impossible to cancel the contract with for example 3 after 1 year

Oh Yeah, I forgot to mention;
The Nec 616 has bluetooth but it only appears to work for telephoney ie. handsfree - try and transfer a file and you're greated with an error message.

Great looking phone but let down by some really silly oversights. Plays Mp3's but only into a mono earphone!
Doesn't have a speakerphone - this means on video calls you have to use the headset/earphone.
You can't add contacts to the phone from your PC in the same easy way as a Nokia 7600 or Motorola A835
The only ringtones you appear to be able to use are downloaded from 3's website - I cannot find a way to upload them fom the PC.
When transfering files from the phone to PC or PC to phone, you have to set the phone into USB transfer mode as well as running the software on the PC.
I do quite like some of the features such as the camera light and fancy blue flashing LED on voice calls but, for me, the negatives outweigh the positives. The phone is going back.

Please please help me so that we can play games on the phone. Do we need to download them or are they already installed into the phone?

In north Italy it's already on sale for about 645,00 Euro. I would wait until Christmas offers, surely the price would slim down a bit...
