A pretty smart design.But seems to make remind about Nokia N73.
Powered by a Nokia battery (1320mAh), the set stands for 1.5-2 days, and stands for 3.5-4.45 hours of video calling.For normal talking the battery seems to withstand 6 hours talktime.
Other than the above features the basic features are all coverted to maximum extent.Includes SMS, MMS, Bluetooth 2.0, USB sync, GPS, Java, FM radio etc.
Coming to the highlights, the camera and the screen provided gives users a wonderful movie experience.

Image clarity is very good when taken with flash turned on.The autofocus along with 3X zomm gives an excellent photography.Video recording is possible.
Compared to other sets the display is far better than other sets.As the screen is wide the videos fit into the screen allowing the user to view like in tv. Good display.This is an excellent set for multimedia fans.
Display: 3.2 inch LCD screen, 16, 000, 000 colours. Above all, this is a Touch screen set.This was the first set to be released in touch screen from the Nokia express music series.The touch screen is very good to operate.More touch screen phones are welcome.Typing messages is very excellent in this set as the message typing options are user-friendly.

Seems that game support is normal as in other Nokia.

Conclusion:
A good phone for multimedia fans.Excellent display and memory.Videos seen in this seems to be good.Its basic Express music with touch screen. Great.
Disadvantage: Boring design, seems like N73. Only touch screen is an extra feature.So spending a huge amount (Approx Rs13, 000) is not advice-able. For such a phone PC synchronisation is not supported, great negative point.Seems to hang, rarely.
Its a normal touch phone.
