Let me start with what in the box. In the box I get the charger (already damaged), USB sync and charging cable and earphone. 

I like everything except the headphone. I already use the earphone mainly as handsfree and this earphone is my least favourite one. The earphone is hard and it is too big for my ears. The headphone port is another thing that annoys me. It doesn't use the standard 3.5 mm jack so it hard for me to buy a replacement. My earphone have already been damaged at this point and I still haven't find a replacement. Haha =.=;



This is the outer design of the phone. What I do like with this phone is the design!!! First it have a hole to attach charm on the phone. I don't know why the new smartphone, the developer doesn't bother to put a hole for charm key chain. It can attract many female consumers right? Anyway. I bought mine with green colour. It have matte kinda finish. This one may look shiny because it have protector that seems like didn't sale its replacement anywhere.. Meh

At one side it have the volume control that also work for zoom out and in. At the other side it have a camera button that for open camera menu and shutter button. It only have one port that use for connecting sync/ charging cable and earphone ports. It is annoying as I want to continue use my earphone even when I'm charging the phone. 

At the back it have a camera 3.15 MP. It have a decent picture quality, 


After opening the back cover there is slot for sim card and the mini sd card memory card. Oh ya the battery is there too haha xD



The inside part. This phone have a nice and cute design on the inside. It have a rather big screen and cute keypad. The keypad also have the backlit option. Pity it only have blue colour backlit, but still it look cute. The keypad have a rather big and cute keypad font. 

The menu have two interesting theme. It have a limited theme but still cute. What is the most important thing is the secret lighting haha. The secret lighting have many colour. Refer to picture above. The yellow lighting is the secret lighting. It fun too see the lighting when someone calling or closing the phone. Another fun thing is the front LED that appear when someone calling, texting or when closing the phone. It so adorable and cool!!!

This phone have a front camera that is not only limited to video calling, I even can take picture with that. My W995's front camera is sort of useless haha.. The front camera hava VGA quality but still it takes a decent picture. 

It doesn't have Wi-Fi but it can use browser using sim card's network. The gaming is nice. It have accelerometer features on the games. Kinda the same with the games in my W995. The nice thing about the accelerometer features it can silent the incoming call by flipping the phone upside down. Handy right? Haha

The radio, mp3 and voice call recording is quite decent. Well I always use this phone for calling so rarely use other features. 

Overall, this phone have a cute design and features. Not a better technology than smartphone but as a basic task this phone is great. It lags sometimes and the keypad sometimes need to push much harder than I use normally use but for a basic function this phone is  awesome!! haha :D 

Oh ya almost forgot. Battery lifetime? Not so great. It can last about 3 days on standby mode and only 3 hours when calling. Meh. I hate hearing the warning sound of  battery low =.=;


This phone have some pros and cons but I still didn't regret buying this phone. xD
