This Unlocked Cell Phones give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Good phone for Media but not for Professional use
I like everything in this phone except the amount of internal memory, only 25 MB. The extra 8 GB is good for music, media files, etc.
I use this phone primarily for work because we push email, calendar, contacts from work email to the phone via a mobile solution. The problem is that the phone has only 25 MB of primary storage so I cannot keep more than 3 days of email on the phone; otherwise memory will be low and you can't do anything with it when it runs out of primary storage.
If you are buying this phone for entertainment uses, it is great choice. If you are buying it for professional related use such as work email, it is not due to the 25 MB of primary storage. You need to ge a phone with at least 64 - 128 MB of primary storage in order to store some decent amount of email on your phone.
2. Good value for its price
Got immediately going with this phone.. WiFi capability is awesome.. easy setup.. quick connection...pop3 email support is easy to configure.. still loading up the 8GB memory with songs and softwares.. its like having a hand held computer... bought this phone over blackberry Pearl and a hacked-iphone. Totally worth it.. Graphics are too good and 3-D sound quality is awesome. There is some lag in starting applications (eg: Yahoo Go!) but it is not significant given the size of certain applications. Fun to play Fifa on it... visit n81 blogs for more... dont pay extra for brown color.. it is hardly visible.. the black face plate is stunning...battery life is good too.. needs charging after 3-4 days of use...
Need more appointment... ?
One of the best phones out there
I was amazed when I learned that I could buy this jewel at such a low price! So I immediately ordered it, and I was very satisfied at how fast it got here. The phone itself is amazing: the wifi is a huge plus, and the Symbian operating system is something that I wouldn't be able to live without.
A few pros:
- WIFI!!
- quad-band, so you can basically use it anywhere in the world (needs SIM card)
- amazing set of features for a low price
- great battery life - up to 3 days if I talk for approximately an hour, use the wifi a little bit and play the game boy advance emulator for a couple of hours.
- very cool design
- nicely built, the sliding mechanism seems solid
- the music quality - simply extraordinary!! (this should have been the first one in the list, the music part of this phone is incredible. The speakers are very loud for a handheld device)
- the hands-free is really good
- 8GB of memory. Why would you ever need more...
