Good for Camera n Music but noting esle

28 Aug 2009 Umesh Nair

6.3 out of 10

one of the major drawback of the phone is that it does not have the sytlus which is inbuilt or attachable to the main phone body, rather it needs to ne hanged separately with the phone, which makes it much less usable and difficult to handle while on move.


Other drawback is that of browsing contacts using alphabets.It only supports to search the contacts by drag down button for first alphabet, thereafter you will have to scroll down for the desired contact. This becomes very difficult while looking for a contact while on move.


one more drawback is that there is no option to change the default memory for SMS. I had lot of problems due to this. As all new sms's were getting saved to SIM rather than phone which has capacity of 500 sms. After every 25 sms it gives memory full error.


I will suggest to go for LG cookie if great camera features not required ot esle LG viewty Smart....both are excellent phones....
