This is a pretty good low end phone, priced at approx 43$. It has all the things it boasts of. The plus points
1) Pretty good battery backup, I would say that it can run on a single charge for normal use(two hrs talk time)for a couple of weeks.
2) Good FM Radio and good speakers - The radio can work without the antenna and gives good voice clarity. The sound output from the dual speakers is also sufficient.
3) The torch light is a tad less brighter than the Nokia 1100 but the plus point is u dont have to keep holding down a button to keep it lighted. You have the option to switch it on and off.
4) Well spaced keys for easy use.
5) Power saving mode to conserve battery.
6) Mobile tracker 2.0 which is password protected. This facility, will send an sms to a predetermined number, whenever the SIM card is changed.
7) The facility of fake call.
Minus Points
1) There is no option to set the time when the keypad is locked, and once it is set to autolock, the keypad is locks in approx 10 seconds, which is a problem when trying to send a well thought SMS.But the saving grace is that when you unlock the keypad, you find yourself at the same place you had got the keypad locked. For people like me who type a lot of sms, the best thing is manual keypad lock, which is easy as there is not combination keys. Press down the * key for a couple of seconds and the keypad is locked.
2)When kept idle the screen goes completely blank(Doesn't even show the date or time)
3) The polyphonic tunes and ringtones included are not that catchy and there is no option to add polyphonic ringtones or mp3 tones to the list.

What about the wireless radio of this set? Is the radio stereo or just mono?
