This is a great PDA phone. The screen is just gorgeous and text is so sharp even when small. Videos look amazing too. I love the USB cable as it allows me to use my USB flash drives instead of having to sync to a PC. Sound is well... typical PDA but the surround capability is excellent on headphones. This PDA is just a blast, the best thing to have been released in years.

The only downer is battery life which usually hits 20% by the end of the day with just medium use. Not a problem during the week when I have it charging on USB at the office but at weekends I need to make use of my car charger to top it up while traveling. I really should make use of the spare battery but I am too lazy to charge both!

Highly recommended

I just bought the xda flame. To tell you the truth, I love it. It's a great pda phone, very fast processor.When I go to the internet I have no problem going to any website. But I have a few problems such as speaker phone is not clear enough, when some people call me, phone is not ringing, this doens't happen so often. I hope when they upgrade it with WM6 they can fix those problems, other than that this a great PDA Phone.

Hard to believe the number of stupid comments from people who clearly haven't even seen one for real. If you've actually used a device, the comments would have some basis, but to just abuse it on the basis of a specs sheet? Please...

I've tested this fone for a while and i noticed that when i tried to play an ipod mp4 file, the video playback was lagging and poor, so what the hell is the gpu for? the size is really bulky and the after trying the speakers at full volume, they started to crack and the sound was already screeching but the sound was not even loud enough, what good are the stereo speakers then? the quality of the sound was definitely very poor. the screen is just ok at 65k (limited due to wm5) but i'd really like it to have 16million colors already! no gps? no keypad or keyboard? what is wrong with this device??!! and the price is gna cost you both ur arms and legs! you be the judge!

Could've been a perfect PPC, if these were available: EDGE technology, Sliding keyboard and an integrated GPS chip. But i dont understand why they never manufacture such PPC!

Can I use this uncredible VGA phone in Korea?
In korea, CDMA,WCDMA and HSDPA Networks are only available.

Huh? Big and bulky. Looks ugly too. Specs are nothing mind blowing. Why do I need this? Just a waste of money even if it comes free with a service plan.

Hello.....you don't need a fast processor when you have a dedicated GPU. What exactly would a fast processor run anyway? It would just drain the battery faster for no good reason.

Also you are missing the biggest draw - USB on the go. You can plug other USB devices straight into it like flash memory sticks and printers. You can watch video from the PC without needing to convert it first because of the VGA screen.

This is the closet thing to a real pocket PC that has been released short of buying a UMPC. Easily beats anything HTC is offering including the U1000 which is not even POCKETABLE!

hey guys this phone may seem lousy in the specs however the best part about this phone is that its the first ever phone to have a integrated video graphics card to allow you to watch hd movies..which explains the need for vga screen =]

its a cool phone but still its lacking somewhere like in the camera and songs player. It should play every kind of file like dat, mpeg, etc. Camera should be increased to 3 to5 mp. Hope O2 will make some changes in the upcoming model to bring about these changes. Lets hope or the best
