"Not that good, really"
What I like:
The design & camera features
What I don't like:
The camera's performance. No "Always On" flash for backlighted subjects.
Review:
I was excited to buy this phone because of the camera features, particularly the 5 megapixel resolution and 120fps video camera. The first reviews I had read on the Viewty seemed to be impressive as they were saying that the camera was nearly as good as the N95. To my disappointment, it isn't even half as good as the N95 camera, for both stills and video. The colors are dead and the sharpness leaves a lot to be desired. And the flash lacks the very important "Always On" setting. Now, I'm in a quandary 'cause I don't know whether to keep on using it or to stop using it already so it'll still be in mint condition when I sell it or trade it in for another phone.

Its high-end camera takes excellent photos, but the Pixon's touchscreen is less impressive
