Could have been a great phone...

Pros
- Waterproof to some content
- Tap control of either music player or sport func.

Cons
- Very, very bad keypad. The bottom row is almost impossible to hit
- The sports programs are useless. The phone measured my running pace to 10 kph regardless of my speed. If i ran 10 km the phone would measure it to 14
- The menus do not work intuitively - if you want something it lies in sub-sub-sub menu
- The phone should be able to read your text messages, but this feature is also useless, anyway in Dansih it is. Not a word it says is understandable
- Bad, bad battery life
- Like all Nokias I have tried the T9 is also much worse than my reliant K750i
- The music player supports many formats, but the user interface is not good
- In order to get to the SIM and memory card you have to use tools

Conclusion
I beleived this phone to be a great running companion, but after having tested it for 2 months I sold it. I'll never buy a Nokia again - it was that bad.

Verdict
1 (out of 5)
