Score 1.0/10

Good points:: Light, stylish, great battery life.
Bad points:: The virtual keyboard was completely unusable as the screen is too small. I have abandoned this handset after a week of cursing it and have to use my husband's old one which has a larger keypad that actually sometimes lets you hit the right letter but unfortunately needs constant charging. Terrible phone, am fuming that I cannot do anything about it for two years. Avoid avoid avoid.
