- Good Points
- Good screen, good camera, very easy for a novice smartphone user to work out how to use
- Bad Points
- Can be slow when using internet. Apps tend to remain active in background after use and drain battery and processor, make sure you use task manager to force close them.

- Good Points
- internet fast esp when on wireless system, good things to use like flashlight, etc, effective touchpad. Sound ok but not tried proper earphones for the phone yet. Other makes seem too quiet
- Bad Points
- had to be sent back as quickly developed major fault and wasn't really useable. So far ok but wonder if it goes again sometime. Battery needs recharging daily if net has been used, runs out too quickly

- Good Points
- - Good uni-body aluminium construction
- Sleek looking
- Nice interface
- Removable battery and sd card.
- A wealth of available software - Bad Points
- - Battery is very short. Apparently all new smartphones are like this. Which is a pity because my old nokia lasted for 2 weeks without a charge
- Grip of death Wi-fi. If you cover the phone with your hand on the upper corner the Wi-fi reception goes from full to zero. This happens if you're typing sideways. Not sure if it was just my unit as it's getting replaced.
- Locked bootloader. For "security" reasons the bootloader is locked. It makes a pain to install an alternative rom like CyanogenMod. Till a one click solution comes I don't think I'll bother with this one.
