CNET Asia Review
Excellent
The good: Contoured; clean lines; sits beautifully in hand; 3-megapixel camera with autofocus; feature-packed for its size; solid build quality. 8
out of 10View score
The bad: No flashlight; headset port awkwardly positioned; sound quality affected by speaker vibration; so-so camera snaps.
The bottom line: It's simple to use, it's elegantly tiny, it has real buttons, and it's no small fry in the features department. Oh, yes, it doesn't look like any Samsung or any designer phone out there for that matter. What's not to like?

Cons: No light for camera, only 4 playlists allowed in music player,

When u bought this phone i though it was brilliant, untill it forze on in the first week. I Took it back and they gave me a totally new one, new box and everything.

Pros: 3 M autofocus camera, a2dp, light and slim
Cons: Limited Mediaplayer: can't create new playlist, can't add mp4 to playlist, mp4 sound not go through a2dp headphone
Opinion:
The best, smallest and affordable camera phone on the market.
However, it's equiped with ;imited capability media player. The player has only 4 playlists. It doesn't allow you to create new playlist. Moreover, you can't add mp4 file to the playlist which is supposed to be only for mp3. The video file can only played through the file manager. What dissappointing me is that the sound of the video does not go through the a2dp bluetooth headset. If you can live with this limitation, the rest of the functions work just fine.
