Well, I believe with all the above features, I think its a best deal. Its camera is good even during night with normal lighting. Its flash is only for short range(2-3 ft).Its screen is awsome and is TFT unlike LCD, hence visibility is better under sun light.
The screen is projected out unlike other models where the screen is 1 or 2 mm inside the phone. So there is a problem of getting the screen damaged if there is a fall.
Its ring tones are good but not that loud as in Nokia. Its speaker phone is good and sound is clear. You can compile your own from predefined templates with some maipulation, however this requires more skill.
When coming to MP3, there is a inbuilt MP3 player in Games Section which will play in sequence or repeat etc. It doesn’t play real songs where Nokia models do.
It looks quite cool with a good grip as the case is made of gripping fibre unlike plastic which will slip from hand.
Its key board is awsome and fits big hands. The patented word completion enables you to complete words before you type all letters. SMS, MMS, EMAIL are easy on a big screen.
I have’nt tested the blue tooth as the headphone itself costs some 3.5K. however the cable is good enough to connect to PC and transfer data. The headphones given are crude and doesnt properly sit in the ear. (its difficult to ride a bike with those headphones as they look like small hammers with projection outside also)
It has good talk time. If you dont listen to songs, with average of 10-20 mins talking every day, the battery lasts for 4 days. The charging time is quite long takes anywhere between 5-8 hrs.
It has voice dialing facility wherein you can call a name and it dials the number. Remember there is no plastic pouch available for this model in the market yet.
There is no option for auto lok the key pad. you have to lock it explicitly.
With all these above features, more or less its a good deal.
The phone software hangs sometimes and the software can be upgraded in a service center.
64MB is meagre for MP3 songs and a 128 mb can be procured from Baazee or from market. You can upload your own images as wall papers. However animated wall papers are not possible. Gifs can be put as screen saver for animation.
Hope this helps
