I hate this phone
Pros
Small, lightweight, voice dialing
Cons
Address book poor, reception poor
Recommended it?
No
I bought this phone to replace my Motorola Startac 75 (I liked that phone).
I wasn't too sure what phone to get and this was one of the smallest ones at the time and seemed to have the features I wanted so I bought it.
At first the phone seemed good, it has some neat features such as voice dialing and a vibrate alert. It fits in my jeans pocket even when I am sitting down so I can easily forget I have it with me.
You can also program in tunes for it to play when it rings, this of course requires you to have no taste or regard for others. :-)
However, there are several things about it that annoy me no end.
The address book is very difficult to use, you can't skip to a letter in the alphabet, so when finding a number, you have to scroll through one at a time - this is really annoying when you have about 80 numbers as I do.
The phone keeps switching itself off if it gets knocked, I have missed many calls because of this.
The reception is poor indoors. I live in London and use the Vodafone network so I expect good reception everywhere I go within London.
Instead I get cut off often or bits of my call get skipped out.
I have done tests with other phones and it's definitely my phone.
Unfortunately in the UK, you are stuck with a phone for a full year, unless you have money to burn, so I have had to put up with this phone for a full year.
Next time I will buy a Nokia.
