I was cramming to get a new phone since my brother is eyeing for my mobile fone. I was cramming for it 2nd quarter of the year, but at least I was able to get it now. I was doubtful to get it at first though, since there were many bad reviews on its battery longetivity in gsmarena dot com, but when I got it, experienced, then held it, I knew, I didn’t make a wrong decision for buying a cheap phone with capabilities of holding a lot  of songs. Since I’m a music lover, this fone suits me pretty well.

The color made me real ecstatic, coz it’s orange, it’s unique, and it’s different with what other handsets colors nowadays. It’s real light in weight too. Other phones are too bulky and too heavy that you’d rather have in your bag or in your pouch than have it in your pocket.

Although, it doesn’t have java capability nor, blue tooth function, I’m still pretty satisfied with this fone. And If you’re the type that wants to store a lot of mp3 files and doesn’t really wanna spend much for a gadget, I suggest that you get this fone, and you’ll never regret it.

*2gb micro sd card sold separately.
