Well it’s a ‘cute lilltle inexpensive phone’ I’d say I’ve played with it for a couple of days now and overall it’s a good package.

Pros:
1. Good display (128*128 pixels; 4096 colours)
2. 40 chord poly with dedicated speaker (loud)
3. Aesthetically sound and its even smaller than my t610.

Cons:

1. Keypad is a tough one to use. Sometimes keys do not act.
2. No side buttons/sliders
3. No MMS (It’s a budget phone though)
4. No dynamic memory (separate memory is allotted to poly and pics, like the z200)
5. No downloadable themes
6. Phone is quite slow.
7. No t9 while using WAP

Basically It’s a candybar z200. It’s a basic phone with no frills. Thus the budget pricing. SE has cut down on many features such a side buttons, MMS, etc

A warning to ‘wappers’ do not buy this phone! It’ll be a pain to surf Esato with it! Mainly because of the lack of side buttons and t9. Also I noticed there was a bug in the WAP browser. The pull down menu which allows you to jump to x post dowsnt show as closed but shows as pulled down! So you have to scroll a hell lot with the joystick to activate the last post in thread/reply etc links!

Sorry for low quality pics:


Standby screen

Wap Session

Packaging is very very small!

The phone got a snow flake speaker. The power button has a red light. The display is Damn good for a 4k colour screen. There is no memory. It has an ir port, but none of the ringtones can be transfered via ir. No mms, email.

But you can send tones and pics. What do you mean no memory?

Ok. I thought 230 was the last non camera se phone. Then they bought out the the j200. The body is slippery plastic. I fought with it to open the back cover. The keypad is metallic. (At least yes and no keys) i dont remember if the games where Mophun or java. Guess it must be Mophun. If you are planning to buy this, dont. Get a 230 instead. What mem does it have? 1.1mb?

hi umentioned tough buttons(keypads) and sometimes the key does not react while u press (esp during sms)... so basically it inherits most of all the z200 problems....?

and i think it cant work with fma i suppose?
