Bal, Ilford camera user

Score 4.0/10

Good points:: The design is ok. Everything about the phone is generally satisfactory with nothing leaping out as exceptional
Bad points:: One of the main features about this phone is the 5MP camera. This is very disappointing. The camera on the Sony Ericsson K880i which is 3.2 MP is better.
