Score 9.0/10

+ Its a good phone, ease of use,once you get used to it. small, compact, but nice weight so you actually feel like you have a phone in your pocket.

- problem is the touch screen is very sensitive, so you can quite easy make mistakes when sending a text, or dialling a call.

+ The touch screen is excellent - very James Bond! I like the way you can move item's easily from the widget sidebar onto the main display to access features. e.g - dragging the sound menu onto the main display enables u to change the sound settings in just a few settings.

- It takes a little while to get used to writing texts on the touch screen. If you have big fingers you may have difficulty hitting the right key everytime but it does get much easier with practice.

The music player is really good quality and loud. The camara is of really good quality for a phone and the different gadgets are great to play with.

- The phone looks really good and stylish apart from the additional battery back (optional) with the flip. this could have been designed better as it makes the phone look like a oversized flip phone. With my previous phone i was a really fast typer however it is harder to type fast with the touch screen it is very easy to nudge other keys however, it all comes with practice. Also the video recorder isnt so good my old phone that was 3.2 mega pixels was alot better and this one is 5 mega pixels.
