 Good Grade August 30, 2010
Diego (Costa Rica)
Not so intuitive as an iphone or android phone but works fine. Good definition (display) and sound.
 Nokia not so hot August 12, 2010

WiFi connectivity problems - browsing and e-mail inconsistent. Setup and use clunky. When WiFi connected, have to manually establish e-mail connections for each account and queued outbound mail box still doesn't empty. Automatic configuration no help. Decent battery life using Blue Tooth and sound quality adequate but not exceptional. Same Blue Tooth headset used with Motorola phone has noticably better quality. REBATE program is a joke - bought the phone in December '09 and still can't get the promised rebate (as of Aug '10). I don't intend to ever buy or recommend a Nokia product again because of the treatment I've received.
 depends on what you need June 30, 2010
Lisa R. Lo
my needs: text message, calendar/note function to replace my organizer, wi-fi to make syncing easier, no need for 3G or web surfing (next model up is more expensive, but includes 3G)
performance:
texting: I use the stylus most of the time to text. It is responsive. The screen responds to pressure rather than heat, so even with my long nails, I can answer calls and use the phone without the stylus. (the iphone screen isn't responsive to my fingers because of my nails)
the frustrating feature when texting is inserting an appostrophe, exclamation mark, or question mark. There's no direct way to do it on the keypad without exiting and going to the 'insert symbol' tab and finding the symbol...very slow...also, names of people don't automatically get capitalized, neither does the word "I", so my messages look grammatically off every time
file manager: still can't find where my photos are stored when I sync from my hard drive up to my phone.
camera: good, there's flash too which is nice
wi-fi: useful because I sync my calendar daily. Now I don't have to use a separate organizer for my contacts and calendar.
notes: limited space, only allows a very short note to be inputted
alarm/screen/other features: sometimes get stuck sideways and I have to restart the phone to get it back to normal, also, the alarm can't be turned off by just tapping the screen, it's pretty annoying in the morning when I have to restart the phone just to shut the alarm off.
overall, the phone is functional and serves it's basic purpose as organizer/phone/camera, but because of the software issues such as inputting question marks, faulty alarm, stuck screen, I cannot give it 5 stars.
 Mediocre Defective product - Poor customer service June 27, 2010
Hari Gangadharan (Livermore, CA USA)
I was a Nokia fan and always had Nokia phones - this phone disappointed me and I decided not to purchase anymore Nokia phones - Goodbye Nokia!
My Problem with phone: The second week itself the headset stopped working. I should have returned my product right then. That was my mistake. Three months later, the phone started switching off whenever I make or receive a call. I sent it to the customer service paying the shipping charges and tracking options. The phone came back repaired. Even though I indicated that the headset is to be replaced or repaired, it came back as it is. Now I have a different complaint. The phone does not turn on! It freezes on the boot screen. I sent mails to Nokia through their website to which I get a reply that some one is looking into it and a manager would call me back but they never called. It is near impossible to escalate this issue. I do not see a point in spending more money shipping it back... Probably I will throw it and take that $250 loss. Nokia - listen -- You will never get any market share with this support.
Now the review: The phone looks like a cheap Chineese knockoff. Looks so plasticky with a plastic flimsy screen. The camera is very poor quality that it is impossible to take any useful pictures indoor. The plus points of the phone is nice size and the nice UI. In short: Software/OS: B+ Hardware: F
Pros:
Nice UI
Nice market place integration
Superb quality syncing software
Cons:
Poor hardware quality. Too many issues reported by users - freezes, reboots on call, etc
Poor camera quality - impossible to take pictures indoors
Poor screen quality - looks like a cheap Chineese knockoff
Poor battery life if you use email messaging
Very poor support

Yhovan Saez (Los Teques, Venezuela)
Great product! the only complain I have is the battery life, it last only one day, as the most of the smartphones. If you check frecuently the internet as emails, msn, or some other app, the battery will last only one day... but in general it's a great product!
