I've so recommend this phone to someone. But battery backup is of prime importance. Cam someone tell me if the standby and talk times of this phone is good and is there any battery loss after rebooting phone?

Two days with normal usage. 5-10 hours if gprs is used heavily.

;-) You have done the right thing. One of the best non cam phone. T290i has stby time of 300 hrs & talk time 10 hrs. Practically a bit less though, still a good one.

Both pics & sound quality is better than 230. Colour black+silver frame. Open speaker volume is in addition.

@Ayush. Practically at good network conditions it has idle stby time of 9 full days. Normal use minimum 4 days. If you browse continuously then 8.5 hrs. I am using it.

Yes that is fair. Regarding battery life almost same and you know well it depends on user. Initially it is better to use fully for few cycles (any brand) then trickle charging will keep the life ok.
