I've had mine a few weeks now & am well pleased. Apart from email etc it's simply a really good phone! It replaces my Sony W950i & to be honest it makes me realise it's shortcoming! Before that I had an N80.
What I like:
- It's small & fits in my pocket.
- When I am on a call it doesn't look like I am talking to a calculator :).
- It's light.
- It looks good.
- It's reliable, i.e. it doesn't crash every time you open an email or something.
- Good call quality (incoming & outgoing).
- Fast start up
What I don't like:
- the battery. On a heavy use day (lots of email, browsing, Wi-Fi) it goes from 100 to 10% in a day. At least you get lots of warning & an extra battery isn't too expensive.
- Vibrate, it doesn't continue to vibrate when ringing. It vibrates from 1 to 3 times which you can configure but that's it.
- Using it as a modem isn't as fast as a 3G phone.
Overall, I give it 5 STARS. If I was happy to carry a phone & a Blackberry I'd get a Curve for the bigger keyboard & screen. But I am not. So I didn't. Overall this is a great small phone with a blackberry squeezed in! Highly recommended.
