Score 7.0/10

+ Easy to use and understand, brilliant video and camera. The amount of video time is phenomenal! Love it's dainty shape (as a woman) love the special features. Nice if it came in other colours though.

- I, and two friends who have the same phone and are all O2, cannot text each other but can phone each other- what's the story here? 02 technical staff cannot explain it at all!! Any suggestions?
