good but bad too!

22 Jul 2007 JG

6 out of 10

after using this fone for some months, i'd say it comes with a couple of upgrades but also with lots of defects. it supports very few media formats and the speakers really really suck. for all the hi tech it supports it should have a better processor and more ram cause it gets way too slow sometimes. the battery discharges real quick. i think the front camera should also support image and video capture.
i'l pick it over my p910 but then i get to miss the p910 pretty often.
the golf game is good though.

I own this phone and its just too good. Its very user friendly and the best part is that the whole phone can be used via its jog dail. The speakers kind of suks but who cares, it has everything else.

Great phone

I bought it a few months ago, and was very disapointed because of all the bugs it had. But after I updated it, it's perfect.

It really does everything it sets out to, very well and fast compared to other phones (especially as compared to the N73, which I have seen in action).

Good phone, I would recommend it to anyone.
