To start with you get an entirely touchscreen based interface, which you can control with either your fingers or with the provided stylus pen, and it features a full Qwerty keyboard when being operated in landscape view, which helps in making this phone easy and enjoyable to use.

You only get a 3.2 megapixel camera, it’s not a bad camera, but don’t expect the same as the 8 megapixel big boys. However, a lot of people are probably perfectly happy with that level of camera.

It is also one of the lightest touchscreens available at just 89g, which is a pleasant surprise, in fact this one is so light, you’ll barely notice you’re holding it, which just adds to the enjoyable feel of using it.

This phone also features a very good media player which supports all the most popular music formats. The in-built memory isn’t the best, just 48mb in fact, but of course, as with most phones, with the addition of a microSD memory card that can easily be bunked up to 8gb. Unfortunately, it isn’t 3G so surfing the web is not going to be the best idea, which is a pity, because it has such a big screen.

If what you’re looking for is a good quality touchscreen phone, but you’re on a budget, or just aren’t that fussed with all the latest mobile phone features, then this will be an ideal phone for you.

Summary:

• Good Points: Lightweight, value for money, attractive.
• Bad Points: The camera isn’t the best available, and the in-built memory is a little stingy, but that’s easily fixed.
• Others to Consider: Samsung Omnia i900, Nokia 5800 Xpress Music.
• Free on Contract with: O2, T-Mobile, Orange & 3.
