Review:
I "Upgraded" to this Phone from my brilliant 6300 & after 1 week, am still struggling to find out why it was an upgrade. Like the 6300, its beautiful to look at & beautifully made, however, unlike the 6300, it doesn't have an FM Radio, an expandable memory, or LED's that flash when you recieve a Text, or missed call. The Battery life is less than the 6300 & the Phone itself is slightly longer, although, slightly narrower & very slightly slimmer, so occupies the same space in your pocket. The Charger connects through a USB slot at the top, which is covered by a rather tacky rubber bung, which is sure to fall off before long. In fact, the only 2 things it has that the 6300 hasn't got, is a Camera Flash, which makes night Photos no better than "Night Mode" and 3G, but do people really use that....? In summary, if you wan t a great looking Phone that does everything most people would want, don't pay extra for this, get a 6300
