it is a pretty decent phone... using it after Samsung Wave 1... hence it lacks in Super Amoled, thou only Amoled would have done tha trick. still a worthy piece of telephony device with the 2.2 Froyo. :)

i purchased this mobile a week ago. i chose this phone over nokia c6 bcoz i was excited about the android software ani capatative touch screen. but now i feel pani about my descision bcoz....
1. the camera is very average type.
2.no swype input method as advertized.
3.no dedicated video player.
4.AND MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THAT" IT HAS VERY POOR BATTERY BACKUP.
what is the use of phone which allows
u to download applications but doesnt give enough battery backup to enjoy application?????

i should have gone with c6......

Download TASK KILLER from android market & use that time to time.

Also use 2g network only, if you are not using 3g. this option is availabe on setting menu.

Hi All,

I have brought this phone for my brother 2 days back and found that in the already installed applications, there is a Calender but when i open it, of course i expected to see the Calender but what i get to see is Facebook, Google and Corporate Mail options....which is very strange...dont know if this is a manufacturing defect or the OS defect?

Also I cant set any of my MP3 songs as my ringtone for the calls i receive.... there is no such option as that and I am compelled to use the default ringtones given in the phone by the company.

Does Anyone know how can i get rid of both these defects and limitations respectively???

great all around phone.

Cons
build quality is average plastic feels flimsy.
call quality sometimes feels bad, could be network problem.
lagging in some apps & some levels of angrybirds
WiFi sometimes will not turn on if switched off
battery backup cud be better
