First review (in Hungarian): recommended

Samples included, reviwers are a bit disappointed (although they were shot in terrible light conditions. Still, noise reduction is pretty heavy). They also say battery drainage is very high, plus it's a fingerprint museum. Otherwise they are very satisfied with performance, build and the awesome screen.

I'd add that these lads are notoriously bad photographers plus these are not selected but random photos. Video is nice and clean with proper dynamic range and good sound quality. Browser is Chrome so it underperforms in SunSpider (1890,7 ms). A 32GB SD and a docking station was included in the box BTW!

They are bit disappointed in the OpiContrast TFT compared to IPS and AMOLED, contrast ratio, blacks and viewing angles are not what you'd expect. (sorry for 3rd post).

It's been expected to be available in February on O2's UK website since the day the phone was officially announced at CES.
