Good: Pros: Torch, waterproof, dustproof, shockproof, attractive, hardy, good features, a lifesaver.
Bad: Cons: Clunky, scratches and dents, can still get dusty.
Comment: Since i'm an avid rider, always dropping phones, etc, after breaking both previous phones while riding i thought i'd invest in a hard-wearing phone.
This phone is by far the most attractive hard wearing, waterproof, shockproof, dustproof phone on the market, and the only one of its kind with a camera.
Since buying, it has not broken, does not have a stupid screen like normal phones that you just press and it breaks, and it VERY hardy.
I have dropped into the roads many a times, drenched in rain, in a bath and a bucket, have lost in a horses stable overnight and it has so far survived.
Although, it does only have basic phone features, it is more advanced than the old nokias of the 90's, it makes for good music playing, louder than most phones available , avan being waterproof.
On the other hand, it does get scratched - mine is now covered in a wide array of marks, scratches and dents, although this may be due to the fact i throw it to people and regularly drop.
Also, although the smallest hardy phone out there, it is still rather big, so only just about fits in my jodhpur pockets, and is way too big for my phone holder.
The inbuilt torch is also a lifesaver! Walking home in the dark, losing something becomes much better with a torch, and this torch is pretty powerful for what it is.
Overall, i'd much rather this than any conventional phone, and it will probably last so much longer.

Good: It makes and receives calls. Battery life. Built for boys.
Bad: This is no smart phone.
Comment: Bought with our son's scout camp trip in mind, wanted something that would not break at the first attempt, and would not need charging during his week away. At home we use it as our 'overseas sim' phone . It will probably still be in use in 10 years time - long after my iPhone has gone to it's maker.

Good: Toughness, Torch, Radio, Quality
Bad: Nothing except the following problem
Comment: This is an excellent phone all the way around. The only complaint I have is the occasional loss of power during a call. Even with a fully charged battery, during a call it will warn you that the battery is almost dead and will close the connection in short order. But once it disconnects, the phone returns to a full charge! Very strange indeed!! Does anyone else have this trouble? Other than that, which is infrequent, it's an excellent phone.
