"Avoid at all costs"

What I like:

Good pictures

What I don't like:

Sloooow, buggy, very annoying flashing blue light

Review:

I really wanted to like this phone - unfortunately using this phone means hating this phone. I'll try to summarise my gripes:
1. Dead slow booting up
2. Long delay when opening contacts
3. Long delay when entering messages
4. Little blue light flashes every 4(!) seconds when the phone goes into sleep mode - not to warn you of a missed call, text or appointment - just to remind you that the phone is switched on
5. Calendar snooze function only has one option: 5 minutes. So there's no snoozing a birthday reminder for a day or a few hours.
6. Bluetooth connectivity is unreliable
7. The phone often "forgets" intermittent keystrokes when you're trying to quickly move between menus
8. Un-userfriendly calculator
9. Automatic keylock has been omitted - you can purchase(!) it as an optional add-on
Hands down the most annoying phone I've ever owned.
