Phone very cute and love the colour display however the short battery is a real pain and the quality of the sound is pants - have left messages on voicemail and apparently they are totally non-understandable - would take it back if I could.......Any ideas where I can get a car charger ?

I luff pink 2 pieces. But this phone has been so close to puttin me off the colour for life ( not really but still). First off, it doesn't let em send pictures, recieves pictures or anything like that, rang up vodafone to get my gprs activated more than once, waste of credit. I gave up with the sending/recieveing pics. First day I got it it'd randomly say 'Error' when I went to look in my messages! GRR! then after about a month, ma keypad lights were on but ma screen was off + wouldnt switch on, so i took it 2 get fixed was supposed to take a few days (took 10!) had it back for a week and now every time i go to read a message my phone switches off. I kno evry1s buyin it cause it looks cute and i agree its one of the prettiest fones ive seen, but if u want a phone thats goin 2 work, dont get it :o) if u do, I hope ur luckyer than me and most of the people who have commented. xx

I got the vk530 lilac fone and luved it soooo much. So much in fact that it broke my heart when only after 4days I had to send it in for a 10day repair service!!!!!I'm getting it back tomoro and hopefully it will no longer randomly switch off and it will finally let me into my inbox all the time instead of when the phone feels like it!!! To anybody that didnt have any problems with ur fone im so jealous. I was really peeved when it had to be repaired and I have 5 friends who have since bought it and had the same problem :( So to any1 who is going to buy this phone-I hope u get a good one!There great when they work but increadably frustrating when they dont!!!

Jade - give it time. You will have problems. These are the worse phones on the market. More problems than any other phone out there. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED....Sorry girls

I love my pink phone........... it is soooo pretty, no really it is. Anyway on a more serious note I am looking forward to a long and fruitful life with my new phone. I think that it is a really good buy and have not had any problems with it (only bought it today)yet. I would like to know how you extract a ring tone from a message to use as a ring tone. If anyone can help that would be great. Cheers
