What brilliant features? This phone has no useful features other than its camera (which is slow).

I really like this handset, its slim and an attractive handset, whilst the touch buttons take getting used to its a brilliant feature and the varied colours make the handset appropiate for business men to school girls.

The problem you might first fall might be the slider problem where some of them are really weak. Some are stronger when you slide up. Most of our customers came back for warranty just for the slider problem. In most cases, when the flex encounters a problem, the screen and touch pad will not response.

Secondly, it's the battery life. It's not of the best out there and the battery indicator is somewhat not accurate. For example, when there's 1 bar left in the battery indicator, the phone would go off within few minutes time or indicates low battery.

I'd say the outlook design is awesome and it looks very cool, whenever I take out my phone, I seem to be the center of attention. =)

I've read reviews from all over the internet and most of them tells me that the reception is very poor, but I think it depends on your operator since I always get more than 5 bars in my place and I'd say the reception is quite good.

Also, some said that whenever an external memory card is inserted, the higher the capacity, the longer it takes to read, also it takes time when changing mp3 tracks that are stored in the memory card. My advise is, get a 1GB which is more than enough and to prevent lagging problems.

The keypad is too slim, which may be hard to press to those who have big hands or thumbs. A cramp feeling is felt whenever I type messages. The keypad is a bit sensitive, but it can be configured in the phone settings, so it's I'm not really bothered with it. But one thing is that, it's a pain to hangup calls despite you need to unlock the keypad in order to hangup calls. Despite taking longer time to hangup calls, this also means higher phone bills! As an advise, try to unlock the keypad first, right after the call is successfully made or answered for you to conveniently hangup the call when you have finished talking.

Other than the above stated, the phone is fine. The picture quality is acceptable, the menu response is quite quick (depends on the firmware). Some of those who owns this phone which have very old firmware said that the menu response is rather slow.

The built quality is acceptable and the speaker volumes are acceptable despite the Bang & Olufsen ICE Amplifier. Some have discovered codes or ways to make the ringing tones louder. Google it up.

I'd keep this phone for occasions and I'll be using my reliable K810i for everyday use.

> In reply to Paul @ 2008-12-08 11:12 from MkemFirst of all, try charging your phone overnight, at least 8 hours of full charge. Possible, don't plug it out until the battery is fully charged.

Try setting the dialing display to normal, then keypad tone to off. Also, set the vibration feedback to off.

Test it again to see whether there's improvements in battery life. =)

I have had this phone since april so only 8 months and last night it turned itself off. When I managed to get the phone back on, it had wiped the memory of all of my pics/videos/music. VERY annoying. THing is though it didnt wipe my contacts or messages so Im a bit confused why it wiped the stuff it did.
Also having problems with the alarms. If I save one it deletes another and it has changed them all to "wake up alarms" so i cant save them without changing the names to all of them. But because of the other problem I cant change more than one!!
anybody else had either of these problems? I have to have this phone until october according to my contract!!!
