Good
The good: Wide range of connectivity features; good Web browser; Dolby Mobile for music playback; bevy of imaging settings. View score
The bad: Scrolling on the touchscreen not as smooth as we would like; soft onboard speakers; lacks 3.5mm audio jack.

Based on what I have learned about the issue, China mobile service providers demand that wi-fi be removed from all mobile phones sold in mainland China - in order to make more money on their mobile service contracts I guess - i.e., they don't want people using free wi-fi hotspots - How GREEDY is that for a business model? Imho, it will backfire, as I will NEVER upgrade ... Read more
