      VICKY, 16 Jun 2009Hi, I am planning to buy this mobile but after reading the... moreReply to ur questions as i have felt this phone.

      1. It does not hang if 2-3 apps are used, as i have music player going and drawing on notepad or making entries in money manager. A very few times it has hanged and i swith off and restart.

      2. overall the UI is not fast and that is a irritant. If you are loading more games or third party apps then there is definite slow down as the processor is slow. SMS is a single button feature and it opens to message dialog box and press the more touch screen to initiate message typing.

      3.camera quality is good but like any cell camera there is a shake when u press to take photos. I have personally gone to SLR for taking professional photos and i have used this feature only to capture some moments which i wanted to capture the moment.

      4.Many ppl reported that touch screens become unresponsive gradually,is it true?

      In my experience the touch screen lost its calibration after 7 months and i got it replaced while in warranty. U need to avoid using nails even accidentally.

      The call quality and voice reception is very good and i am able to make calls even in low signal areas. Even the battery comes for 2-3 days as i allow the battery to drain completely till the red light blinks and then charge. Even at 18 % charge it comes for 6-7 hrs and a few calls.

      Thanks

              Hi
              I am a little bit confused.
              Please help if anyone can.
              I am planning to buy this handset within 2 days but my problem is I am using mobile basically for the internet purpose and here in India only Edge is maximum data transfer speed.
              In this handset no edge facility is available so how much speed I get maximum?
              In my nokia E62 handset I am getting Maximum 32kbps and minimum 18kbps when I download a file.
              This handset is
              3g facility but no need for it here in India.
              what should I do?
              I buy it or not?
              Please anyone suggest me
              Thanks in advance.

                  Hi everyone,
                  I went to check out this phone yesterday and in 2 showrooms they said that this phone's manufacturing has been stopped and it's also a bad phone that hangs a lot. One of the guys was also saying that he has liquidation stock and he'll sell it to me for just Rs 7500 . PPl please tell me if this is true.

                                First of all BEFORE buying this phone you must know:
                                1. it's a good value phone
                                2. the battery lasts up to 3 days , but only if you disable 3G networks (see Settings->Connectivity->Mobile Networks->then press -> select GSM/3G Networks and select Only GSM.... very IMPORTANT STUFF...
                                3. The phone takes a while to start up ( 1 minute...)and another 20 second before you can make a call
                                4. A nice feature is that it can write messages with the stylus, and recognizes handwriting quite well.

                                Wish you all the best of luck ! Still think it`s a good phone even if it has some minor flaws... i simply love it

Using Intrnt it's so easy, touchscreen is good, app n games so intrsting.. But ya,.the battery is average, dpendent how u use this phn n stylus is so small n thin. It's make using keypad more comfortable than stylus. But overall, i luv this phn.. SE rulez.. :-)

                                      2. buy a canon camera if u want an auto focus camera.
                                      3. its upto the user if u will handle it with care so that the screen will not break.
                                      4. use a protector film on the screen.

                                        Hi,
                                        I am planning to buy this mobile but after reading the user opinions, i am a bit confused.

                                        Can someone from India (who have been using this phone for the past six months) clarify the following:
                                        1. Does this phone hang often while using multiple application? (say music,pdf docs,sms together)
                                        2.Does this phone become slow after few months of usage?One of the user wrote that it takes two minutes to start to write an sms.
                                        3.The camera doesnt have an autofocus.So, can we still take good quality pictures using it?How good is the flash for taking pictures in the dark?
                                        4.Many ppl reported that touch screens become unresponsive gradually,is it true?

                                        If you have faced any other major drawbacks, please do let me know.
                                        Thanks in advance.
