      This phone is great. For $100 only and i got a smartphone which is better specked than many Nokia, Samsung and LG smartphones at high end prices! In summary;
      -I can enjoy Android 2.2. froyo full features
      -Access to over 60k apps in the android market
      -Data speeds are high thanks to 3G,WIFI,Edge,GPRS.
      -The capacitive touch screen is very responsive not like resistive found in Nokia 5800 and others.
      -Threaded sms is a charm to work with.
      -Android widgets are on all my five pages on the screen!
      - Push email with an LED indicator, yahoo flashes blue, others green.
      -Don't worry about virus there are antivirus softwares, am using free AVG.

      -Location services are readily available thanks to google maps and GPS.
      -You will never miss out on your office apps, doc,xls,ppt,pdf. There are many viewers and editors(for a fee) on the android market.Am using docs to go 3.0.
      -An integrated phonebook.Facebook,email,call, messaging is available directly from the phonebook.Android 2.2 rocks.
      I can't say it all, still discovering. This is a great phone, sold my samsung star to get this!

        Gath., 23 Feb 2011Very useful phone. Beautiful features for a frindly price. ... moreAll smart phones have charge issues, switch off the gps, bluetooth and internet if you're not using them to save battery. Messages just tap nd hold the text till it shows options for copy and paste.

            Anonymous, 22 Feb 2011Can you save the downloaded installations to the sd card?Yes, android 2.2 OS allows installations to run from your micro sd card. But, certain apps will run better on the phone mem. Like i have the UEFA app and it prefers to be on phone if i want instant alerts of the league.

I think for the price, the battery was the price to pay. but this phone is great. was comparing with other smartphones and it out performs them except on battery. Find Malibu telecoms on Jeevan baharati buidling, opposite electricity house on harambee av. Go to 5th floor and get a spare batt. Worked for me.

                  Very useful phone. Beautiful features for a frindly price. however I am disappointed in only one aspect. Battery. Is it just me or does everyone have to recharge on a daily basis? Sometimes I have to recharge twice. Strangely, the recharge takes a very short time for the battery to be fully charged. Another question, how do i forward sms messages?

                                      Roz, 19 Feb 2011Cool. only the battery life abit of dissapointmentConstant thumbing of the ideos just like any other phone will limit the duration for standby to a bit less than expected, phone calls and constant texting will also contribute to this.
                                      If you have a laptop, or you work with a desktop, i'd suggest you keep the data cable to the phone plugged in at all times, and whenever you are not using the phone plug it in, while doing the long project/work reports, the phone will charge and thus limit your risk of going offline thanks to not charging your phone.
                                      Various task killers and juice defenders are available in the market, download these so you may be able to extend the battery juice for that extra hour o so.
                                      Using 2G networks when not doing data is also a good idea, switching off the wifi when not in use also helps push the battery to that extra couple of hours.

                                        The phone is the best that could have ever dropped onto my hands, for just about $100 I have ease that i could only dream about, however, there is always a shortfall as far as a good product is concerned, but this should not bring down the praise it trully deserves.
                                        The apps that it comes with pre-installed are for everyone and anyone's use, they are tools that have helped in so many ways.
                                        The wifi integration has helped ease the wireless router configuration procedures that needed me to carry my laptop everywhere i went.
                                        Monitoring the speeds on my WLAN has never been this easy, not mentioning administering my mail server.
                                        Email, text and other notifications come in with ease of access for the said notification, be it a facebook alert, an sms from a loved one or an email from the boss, testing the mail transmission and delivery times, its all on the thumbtips.
                                        Taking photos, listening to music, watching & taking videos, is all made easy.
                                        The number of apps available for use is overwhelming, key apps are found easy in the market and installing them is as easy as coffee in the coffeemaker.
                                        In a matter of just 2 weeks i have at least two people from every department having this phone, and its a lot of fun for them.
                                        The short fall is that the processor is a 528, this means you can't have flash, a search in the market proved this, if only Adobe could do flash for this sized processor...
                                        the games are a breeze to install and they play well, eg. pool,angry birds...
                                        all said and done, i still think it was 8499 - 1000 - 1000(600mb data) = 6499/80 = $81.2375 well spent.
