I got this phone from Flipkart within 4 days as promised, the packing was good, I have been using this phone for the last 2 weeks. Now let us rate this phone in every aspect from a common user point of view. Please note this review is based on my personal experience and am unbiased.nnBuild Quality: Being a slide phone the build has weak points at the joints of slide, so I strongly advice that you keep the phone away from children!!! Rating: 3.0/5nnDisplay: 3'' TFT LCD ??? this is what you may feel but this display has Bravia Engine (yes the same you find on Sony TV) which makes the screen crisp & crystal clear. It takes a while to get adjusted to the small screen, Especially if you have used apple, htc or samsumg phones with wider screens. Rating: 4.5/5nnCamera: The phone has 2 cameras - front VGA & rear 5 MP. The camera is really good, the pictures are of very good quality and the best part being HD video recording @ 720p which is not available even in 20K phones. Rating: 4.5/5nnMusic: Can anybody beat Sony in Music? I doubt, and added to this is Sony xLOUD engine audio filter technology which makes the music even more enjoying. Not to forget the FM radio which is good add on. Rating: 4.5/5nnMemory & Processor: 1 GHz Scorpion Processor & 512 MB RAM makes the phone quite fast. The Phone has a 320 MB internal memory which is a bit on the downside. Especially when you have to run lot of applications on internal memory. This can be offset with an application "Apps to SDcard". The package comes with a 2 GB external card (expandable upto 32GB). Rating 4.0/5nnInternet & Data connectivity: Supports GPRS, EDGE & 3G for internet. Bluetooth & USB for data connectivity with your Laptop/PC. Can work as modem and also as a WIFI Hotspot. The internet is quite fast compared to my IPhone 3G. Rating: 4.5/5nnSoftware: works on the world famous Android 2.3 Gingerbread, supports JAVA, Adobe Flash Player. Macfee Anti Virus & Phone Security is an added advantage. The emails are sent via SSL encryption, which makes your mails quite safe. Browser is a bit slow, this can solved by downloading Opera Mini. Multitasking works very smooth. Rating: 4.5/5nnBattery: Every good thing in this world has a flaw & so is this phone, the battery. If you are avid internet user like me then you have problem. The battery gets discharged in about 3 hours of continuous browsing. If you use it only for phone & mails without connecting to WIFI then you might be lucky with one day. The Lithium Ion 1200 mAh battery is quite less for this beautiful phone. I don't know if there is any alternative for this. Rating 2.0/5.nnIn a nutshell if you are willing to compromise with the battery then you have a amazing beauty @ affordable price. The phone is compact fits within your palm, ladies will sure shot like this. Hope this review comes in handy and you can make an informed decision.
I have been waiting for an android mid-range budget phone with good processor, good ram, good resolution, good camera . I have been checking all available android phones for the last 2 months. Almost all mid-range/low-range (price wise)phones are having 600Mhz processors (one or two have 800Mhz); android 2.2 os ; no flash support & no multi touch support ; 256MB to 512MB ram; but all of them have low-range cam @15 fps or VGA or QVGA cams and no front camera.nnThis guy has 5MP cam @720 px HD video recording @24 frames/sec and front camera; 512MB ram; Android 2.3 ; with flash & multi-touch; 720px HD video playback; and 1 GHz Scorpion (Snapdragon MSM8255) processor with Adreno 205 GPU which is also used in Xperia arc/neo/active/ray and in Xperia Play. Yes seriously the same processor&Gpu are used in Xperia Play - the playstion phone ; and cool physical keyboard & the coolest Sony Ericsson UI; and the price is 15,399 INR ( 300 USD approx.) only.nnI found this gem in flipkart two days back and ordered it immediately. I have been waiting(dying) for the delivery.
