    Improve service... only look wont help Introspection -- 31/10/09

    I like this model, but what about service...? How can a product survive with poor service?

Overview

» Enlarge

The good:
  • 8-megapixel camera
  • HSDPA, Wi-Fi, GPS
  • 16GB internal storage plus micro SD expansion
  • DivX video playback
  • 3.5mm headphone socket
The bad:
  • Drab design
  • Screen difficult to view in sunlight
The bottomline:

It may not win a beauty pageant, but the INNOV8 has the features and performance to be one of the best multimedia capable phones we've seen. If you're in the market for a mobile phone that can do just about anything the INNOV8 should be on your shortlist.
