its a good phone, may not be the best one but better than any latest lg and nokia phones. i have got two of them and none seems to be having any kind of problems, they work well. its an attractive phone by looks but i do not like about it is the menu, touch skrn is fast responsive. so not a bd phone at all

The camera IS 8MP but the sensor is small. It's not a smartphone but is very good for a phone. The screen is very accurate and responsive, the software is fast and the design is cool (suitable for women - i bought it for my wife). The battery is somehow not very good, but my Nokia N82 last also a day or two using camera, internet, video call etc.
Really, i think is a good phone.

bubble, 09 Jun 2009i have used the phone for about two weeks now to be honest... moreI completely agree with you. The camera is too bad and every image comes blurred. The battery is pathetic.If you use camera with flash it will come for only one day. Pathetic phone. Please dont buy it.

i have this phone myself and i love it.
the touch screen is very easy to use, i have never been a fan of touch screen but i found this easy. the whole reason i took it is because of the keypad so i wouldn't find the texting to difficult (i have long nails!), but i found that i never used the keypad!
I like being able to move the widgets around, but it's a shame they don't have more convenient or fun widgets available to download, but nonetheless it covers most of everything you will need a shortcut for. I don't like the fact that the widgets reset themselves when you switch the phone off and on again!
the battery life is completely pants though, i have to charge it everyday, mind you i am on the internet a lot during the day, but having to charge it everyday is annoying.
texting on it can by a little annoying as when you make a mistake in a word (predictive texting) then you have to delete the whole word and start again. Mostly i don't have too many problems with the texting.
Internet is easy to use also. Overall, after a little bit of getting used to, the phone is great, i would give it an 8.5 out of 10 for everything, main downpoints i've noted, but otherwaise i find it entertaining and i haven't gotten bored with it yet!

ALex, 09 Jun 2009oh man... cannot read the new SMS during a call.
is there ... moreyes you can view an sms during a call
menu->settings->phone settings->camera key function-> always ask
when you are in a call press the camera button for one second.. a box will pop up (app switcher) and just choose messages

i have used the phone for about two weeks now
to be honest.. after reading reviews i expected the bettery life to be worse than it is.. its not good but not as bad as sonyeric c905.. the camera is 8mp but who ever says its fantastic is a tard..
the picture is often shaky even with anti-shake on
the picture is really large at 8mp but there is no details..its like if you are using a 2mp camera and just zooming in or resizing the picture...
one more important downside of this phone..many of you might not even notice.. is call quality.. it is really bad..i have done some tests..and found out that if the other person is totally silent..then suddenly speaks..usually the begening of the 1st word will be chopped off.. if the word is short enough, i dont hear a thing..just nothing..when it really pisses me off i take my sim out and insert it in my e71 and my life becomes so much better..
if you want this phone for the looks..get it
if you want a good camera phone go for sonyeric c905 or any good 5mp nokia will be better
if you talk alot..just stay away..
last thing i wanna comment on is the screen..one of the guys here was saying the touch screen is amazing and responsive..!! dude havent u ever used a touch screen?
that is the worse touch screen ever made..i am comparing to the phones i owned recently:
nokia 5800
htc touch pro
sonyeric xperia
samsung pixon
.........
one last thing..if you have like more then 60 smss..dont bother scrolling through them..it takes forever as the phone lags
if i commit sucide..you know why lol

pros
cam fantasic
interface easy
slide feels fantastic
looks sexy
samsung side widget bar is mad
slide between 3 screens is kl feature
cons
short battery life (1 day music playing 2 days normal use 3 days barly touching) so about half of what my n95 8gb did
browsing links online are tiny (so no man hands here)
hard 2 b heard sometimes
runs 1 app at a time so no facebook then read an sms
pic viewer is a bit annoying with the tilt feater, doesnt really load up ur pics any gd get doubles but its meant to b different shots
reccomend a dif phone
