Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)So I read the previous reviews (four at the time) and felt that this was a decent investment for an overseas trip that I was taking.
Boy was I disappointed. FIRST THE PHONE IS NOT NEW!!!!.
It came in a nice package, original box everything but it was already assigned to Vodafone (indeed the certificates listed on the phone state that Vodafone is the registered user until 2021!).
As such that is why even though it is unlocked, AT&T internet will not work on it and you have to change the settings even to get it to work on overseas network
While overseas, I popped in a sim card that I bought and could make calls and such...but the phone always had a "roaming" symbol (because the network was not Vodafone!)
Otherwise, lots of flashy features that cannot be used because of the ownership issue with Vodafone - there are widgets to connect to FAcebook, Youtube etc directly but cannot connect.
The camera is pretty decent (perhaps better in bright light than my iphone camera). Also the touch screen is nice and bright but is difficult to see in direct sunlight and it sometimes requires a couple of touches before it responds. The most annoying feature is the fact that the phone locks itself once you connect to a voice call so that you have to hold down the "unlock" button to use "in call" features like keypad/contacts etc.
On the plus side, it is small, touchscreen, reasonably priced for an unlocked phone with touchscreen, with pretty decent speakers to listen to mp3s or radio (headphones need to be connected for this).
All in all though, it looks much better than it performs!
