B&O (B)ig & (O)utstanding sound quality

Apr 23, 2008

Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Extremely smooth scroll wheel and design, aesthetically appealing design, classy
Cons: Terrible sms method, a bit huge, must use provided earphone
Opinion:
Received the unit the day before and the phone really gave a very great first impression.. From the packaging down to the bottom of the box with all the cool and useful accessories provided.
The best thing in the serenata is the sound quality produced by the B&O speaker, no other mobile phone comes close to its sound quality. It is just unbelievable such phone is able to give out such sound.
The worst thing, is the text input, it's a pain in the hand, it takes so much time to type out sms. Nothing can be worst. Number dialing is similar but i find it quite fun to scroll around the retro number-dialling style.
Overall, this phone is not a 'wow, i want it so badly' phone. It looks really really nice frankly except for text input.. that's all, music player is not as user friendly but acceptable. Sound quality is the main thing here.
