"Excellent Choice for a Flip-Phone"

by LouisAlferez on September 12, 2005

Pros: Sleek design. Closes softly. Large screen. Soft keys.

Cons: Receiver volume a little low for me. Ditto for memory. No Bluetooth.
Summary: It's the first time I'm owning a flip-phone, and I wasn't disappointed with this one. It has the perfect weight and size to go with its uber-cool design. The PTT function is a major attraction for me, and I can't wait to find someone to use it with (which is a slight irritation for now).

My only qualms are its small memory and its lack of Bluetooth technology. I was also taken aback by its low receiver volume (even at max levels), but considering that I was outside among a lot of people perhaps it was just me. I'm not too concerned about the low-res camera. I mean, I do have a hefty digicam to take good pics with.

Definitely a must-buy for those of you who want function and style combined in a simple, effective package. Definitely not for geeks and techies.

It's the first time I'm owning a flip-phone, and I wasn't disappointed with this one. It has the perfect weight and size to go with its uber-cool design. I'm impressed with the way its closing springs are bit restrained; much unlike the others that are more like mousetraps than flip-phones. The PTT function is a major attraction for me, and I can't wait to find someone to use it with (which is a slight irritation for now).
