It's thick, yet no qwerty keypad. It's non-touch, yet clunky OS. And, it's v.expensive. Sure, Symbian is simple, and gets the job done. But the low-res screen is SOO last-gen. I love the double slider though, I wish all phones were double sliders (phenomenal for emulation gaming)... It’s low-res.

So let me guess to get any kind of use out of this phone you have to: turn off bluetooth, turn off 3G while not surfing, turn off ANYTHING running in the background, turn off the phone and not use it.

It's a pretty lame upgrade to the N95. Bring on the Nokia Tube! Seriously, what is good about this thing other than the camera and N-gage? It’s a pretty lame upgrade to the N95.

That, I must say is quite ignorant. I've used regular and touchscreen phones extensively, and I infinitely prefer regular, especially for texting. Unless of course you've got both touchscreen and QWERTY. But even the overrated iPhone won't have that in its next-gen iteration. Since when does a touchscreen immediately mean better?

Almost, because 1) No touchscreen. 2) S60 is so last-gen. But that device makes GBA emulation a dream. It’s an almost perfect phone. Almost, because 1) No touchscreen. 2) S60 is so last-gen.
