Overview

» Enlarge

The good:
  • Teeny -- but still practical -- size
  • 3-megapixel camera with lots of features
  • Very easy to use, no fussing around
The bad:
  • No flash or light on camera
  • Lovers of flashy gadgets need not apply
The bottomline:

A great choice if you want an easy-to-use phone that you can barely feel in your pocket.

Editors’ rating:

8.2/10
