Hi!, i’ve been using this phone for around 3 years now, i bought this phone in the early days of it’s release..i am pretty much satisfied with the phone I think the current price of this phone is around 7K+ or even cheaper(when I bought the phone was around 10K), it’s not the best phone with that price tag today.features, If people are looking to buy this phone then you might wanna take a look at these problems and features in the phone: 1.Joy Stick: firstly this phone has a trendy joystick for navigation, which will work well for around a year and a half.if you are a mobile freek who messages a lot and uses the phone roughly then this is not a phone for you.after the joystick gets screwed up, you’ll tend to find the navugation immpossible. but the menu can be accessed using the corresponding number...like 5 for messages after you enter the main menu, and 8 for the phone book, etc.but the joy stick is sure to get screwed up if you drop the phone or if water(moisture) seeps into the phone via the joystick openin.. 2.Camera: the camera put into this phone is a QVGA camera, which can take shots up to a resolution of 640x480 pixels.the camera is better than a few nokia phones in that range but if you are looking for a TRUE DIGITAL CAMERA, then this is not the phone for you.The camera fails to maintain clarity at low luminated places even after using the night mode.Effects can be added like:B/w(black and white), negative, sepia.. but the camera is ok for taking pictures of objects at a short distance.. 3.memory: it has around 2.2MB of shared memory where you can store pictures and ring tones..can accomodate around 80 messages in the inbox..has 512 phone book entry capacity.the phone book is more organised than in other brands like nokia. 4.Display:Size: Colors: 65, 536 (16-bit), 128 x 160 pixels, LCD TFT display has absolutely no problems when in the shade or under the sun, this is an upgrade to the LCD display of T610..the display is crispy and good. 5.Extra features or tools:has Buetooth : Supported Profiles: HSP, HFP, DUN, OPP, FTP, BIP, Sync version 1.0b, has IR and can be connected to the computer via a data cable..these features give more liveliness to the phone.. you can use your hands free to call contacts without manual dialing, (voice commands), picture id, personal ringtones and pictures for contacts, connecting to the WAP using it’s WAP browser, trust me...the Browser is better than any other browser of any phone of any brand in it’s class..JAVA J2ME applications and games can be made to on this phone, MMS, has built in SMS counter, and call duration counter..cost calculator, has a organiser, voice recorder, picture editor, calculator and alarm which will ring even when the phone is switched off, ......ETC if you are lookin for loads of features then this is the phone for you.. apart from the above mentions problems, the phone is great value for money... 6.battery life:the phone’s battery has Talk: 14.00 hours (840 minutes) Standby: 315 hours (13.1 days) BOTTOM lINE a good value for money.. and i’ll gaurantee u that i’ll never get any virus attacks..!!
