The bad: Poor battery life; no 3G.
The bottom line: The E840 is a great-looking handset that has some nice features such as the onboard document viewer and nifty music player. However, it blots its copy book by having below par battery life and no support for 3G.

Opinion:

The text, pictures and videos look great. The Keypad is really great to type with large and well spaced out keys. The UI is very simple and straightforward and new users will find it easy to go with. The Alarms and calendar come with all the necessary features. One Feature that I really liked was the "vivid mode" for reading text messages. It displays texts with some animation sequence and some common words with pcitures. ... Read more
