Design And Build Quality



This baby was born to impress with its looks. Your first look at this phone should tell you what are its strengths, what is was born or rather created to do. Firstly, the two game - buttons at the top (aptly labeled X and O) promise a great mobile phone game experience. The loud speaker slots on the sides enforce the fact that this is a music phone. Finally, the large screen and the dedicated buttons for direct access to the storage locations for multimedia, WAP, Camera and MP3 player promise a wholesome multimedia experience.




The overall build of the phone is good though there are a few gripes on my part. After just 3 days of usage, the MP3 player control keys showed a bit of wear. The previous track button got a permanent depression.



Secondly, the screen is highly reflective and a fingerprint magnet. Cleaning the screen to remove smudges is a regular affair, though it is more of removing whole and clear fingerprints than smudges.



Thirdly, the two game keys are not specially padded. In fact, they are quite shaky in their sockets, a quality not ideal for a gaming key which will undergo a lot of furious or continuous pressing.

Finally, the connection port has a dust cover which is an obstacle when you try to plug in the headset or USB cable as any finger used to keep the cover open comes in the way when you are inserting the cable. The only way to overcome that problem is to open the port using the finger and then using the cable itself to keep the port open.

i disagree with on claim: "The video player supports 3gp and mp4 videos. It does not have full screen support but provides decent playback. " you can view video in full-screen by pressing the * key after the video begins!
