Good non touch screen phone

stolniceanulucian has owned it for less than month before publishing this review

Good non touch screen phone. I bought this phone for my wife and up to now she is very pleased. The phone looks great, has some interesting features and has a pretty decent camera. However one must be careful when taking a picture, not to shake the phone. In good hands, the pictures can be very good for a camera phone.

Loud speaker is very good quality and volume. Video playback is smooth. Music player is very good.
Camera
9.0
Camera is among the best 3.15 MP snappers. Much better than 3 MP Nokias. The colours are very natural. Still, one must be very careful when shooting a picture, because there is no image stabilizer and therefore pictures can be very easily 'shaken'.
UI speed

Nothing to be scared about, but there are some delays in user interface response, particularly in the seconds after insertion of the memory card.

The screen appearance is very pleasant. There is also a built in function that allows you to search the entire content of the phone for a specific text. There is a built in document viewer, image gallery is nice and the USB socket makes connections and charging very easy.
