+ I got this phone for my son and he loves it. he thinks the touch screen navi pad is 'ccol' and he likes the fact it has plenty of features and an excellent camera.

- took some getting used to at first but not a massive down point.

- the predictive text function constantly will predict useless words , slash numbers for example trying to send the word 'what' is predicted to 9428! , 'let' will be Kev and tomorrow is tomorrox, very annoying, and there seems to be no way of changing this. Also the finish of the phone although looking pretty as brand new quickly becomes scratched and looks a bit scruffy in everyday use.
