What I like:

nothing

What I don't like:

quality is beyond horrible

Review:

If it was as they advertised it, this would be a great phone. Battery life is 3 hours max, with light usage. With no usage, I get about 8 hours. Call quality is poor at best, I'm often told I can't be understood. GPS will not track outdoors, 3 out of 4 times. Text and emails are dropped, and calls are dropped constantly, even though I'm in a high signal area. Internet access is difficult indoors as well. If you want more information on the liabilities of this device, check out the vodafone eforums and see what the users there have to say. I'm on my second phone in 3 months, and it is useless until I get a replacement, as it will not charge or sync with my pc. Beware the hype from the sales staff, also, as our local shop promised me it would do anything I could do on my laptop via the internet. (More fool me for buying that line.) If I'd checked here first, I'd never have considered this phone. Not to mention that my service provider cannot fix any issues this phone has. If you want a touch phone, this shouldn't even be an option. Ever.
