Summary: Superb Phone!
Comment: This is a great phone, reasonably small by today's standards, compact and lightweight, with built in 2 Mega Pixel Camera (on the back), and a smaller video-call camera on the front (near the top). It takes good quality video and still images, which can then be sent (once reduced in size), via MMS to other compatible phones.
It has 3G capability which allows higher data transfer speeds, allowing you to connect to the internet and download larger files - such as games, applications, screensavers, themes, music, ring-tones etc) with ease. 3G is also used for video-calling. 3G is not yet available in all locations - you can check whether there is coverage in your area on the Vodafone website.
The main reason for buying this phone for many people will be the built in Walkman digital music player and radio, both of which give high quality sound. The music player supports AAC (the format used by Apple) as well as MP3 (and several other formats). It comes supplied with a 1 GigaByte Memory Stick Duo.
Navigating the phone is fairly straight-forward, as the user interface is quite intuitive. A lot of attention has been paid to style, as the phone looks good, and you can change the appearance quite simply by selecting (or downloading) a different `theme'.
It also has some great ring-tones pre-installed.
It comes supplied with software on a CD-ROM to allow you to convert your CD's to MP3 or AAC and then transfer them to the phone. As well as transferring files such as photos or video clips etc. to and from your PC for viewing or printing. I found installing this software to be slightly trying as each application is installed individually - however I got there in the end!
I am really pleased with this phone and would recommend it to anyone looking for a stylish phone with the latest technology.
(Also available in black.)
