Got mine a few days ago.

I didn't expect much from this phone.
I thought it'd just be a hybrid of my two previous phones- the P1 & the Xperia X1... and I was right.
It had the physical attributes of the P1, with the UI & OS of the X1.


Comparing it to the P1...
This phone lacks the expansion slot for a memory card, it does not have a video call capability, and the games bundled with it suck.
Except for the UI & panels, I still prefer the symbian OS over the Windows Mobile 6.5.3.

And vs the Xperia X1...
This is definitely faster... thanks to the windows v6.5.3.
But clearly, the X1 is a more advanced phone in terms of features and specs.
I also miss the bigger screen.


What I like about this phone:
- the QWERTY keypad. Makes typing a lot easier. Unlike the X1, there's no need to flip the phone and wait for a few seconds before the screen rotates.
- Panels. I like the phone's ability to customize the home page according to the owner's preference.
- Office Mobile. This is a business phone.
- Price. Compared to the other smartphones, I think the Aspen is relatively cheaper.










Now I'm really missing my P1.

Well a replacement phone came. The camera was fine. I just couldn't get on with windows mobile. More frustrating than my Satio. So I sold it to my better half and bought an iPhone 4. I'd resisted for long enough. Oh and got £152 trade-in on the Satio too.

I wish I didn't like the iPhone so much, but it does what I want it to. I can live without customisable SMS tones and with having to buy apps from Apple.
