Overall

A good entry into the photo-taking, music playing world of mobile phones - which is exactly why I bought it - but nowadays it doesn't appear good at any of these.

The first thing I noticed was the buttons were too small to press with thumb pads, so required a sort of bent-in approach to press them with thumb nails. Besides being awkward, this leads to the numbers getting scratched off prematurely.

However, it is a compact size and agreeable weight. I've had mine approaching two years now and imagine it will last a couple more (assuming the BL-5C battery inside it doesn't catch fire!)
