"Good call quality, but the minor details are retarded"
Pros: Decent battery life, good call quality and reception, nice, sleek design
Cons: The little things - phone exterior buttons, camera flash, etc
Summary: Basically, this phone is a decent phone, but there are small details that make me want to take it back and trade it in. For example, you can't set text tones for individual contacts. You also can't use sound files as ringtones, you have to text them to yourself to save as a ringtone. The exterior sound volume button only works when the phone is open, so you can't adjust the volume when the case is shut. The exterior display has a reflective surface, which makes it hard to see when you receive a message. The vibrate is weak and the flash on the camera is essentially useless as it turns the entire picture white. Also, there is no self portrait option - what the camera sees does not show up on the exterior display. I don't need fancy player options, I just want the basic media functions and this phone is failing in that respect.

1. You can use sound files as ringtones. Use the media cable to download from your computer.
2. The reflective mirror is only a problem in bright light, but then again most LED screens are period.
3. The vibrate is loud enough for me to use as an alarm as long as it's on a hard surface.
