I recently joined an organization which does not allow camera cell phones in its premises, I was in a total fix, I was almost broke and had to get myself an handset which would keep me entertained and still keep my budget in control.


I went through many websites, dealers and resellers. I came across this simple but still beautiful handset, priced at a cheap rate of Rs. 2000/- with features like, XpressRadio,


Torch, T9 Messaging, Call Screener, Outgoing call timer(which disconnects calls automatically after a set period of time) which is very hand on ISD calls and for Pre-Paid users, the speaker is loud enough to turn heads, so is the glossy shine and design, it looks like a pretty expensive Nokia handset.


There are still a bit of issues which can be ignored for the price you are paying, like the handset restarted automatically, I dunno why. And if you are using the torch and there is an incoming call the torch does not switch off automatically, so there is a drain in the battery. Speaking of batter its pretty solid, I can go upto 3-4 days without charging, but still make around 10-15 calls in a day, and around 300 SMS, I guess according to me its pretty well performing. It is a bit hard typing an sms, the keys are a bit to close, it can also be an issue while playing games(Preloaded with Cricket Cup, Snake Xenzia and Rapid Roll )
