Misc. Features

All other mundane features from a World Clock to the usual calendar options for schedules and reminders etc. are present. A To-Do list, Notes application, calculator, countdown timer, stopwatch and a dictionary are also present and do tend to come in handy from time to time. The handset also supports Stereo Bluetooth so if you have a good A2DP enabled headset or headphones you can get the best out of the music player.

Camera
The phone's equipped with a 2MP camera with features that include White Balance settings, landscape mode and portrait, self timer up to 10 seconds and a few effects. The only problem is it takes a painfully long time to process images.

Images in normal daylight are not bad at all for a CMOS sensor in this bracket. Once again, don’t expect too much but I think it’s still quite good to be used in average conditions. However, certain areas with excess light do tend to look a little burnt out.

The lack of a flash is not really noticed too much. The camera’s sensor manages to fare quite well with subjects photographed in low light conditions. All images look quite good on the small display of course so if you’re gong to use the handset to just pass images along to others via BT or show them off from the handset you have nothing to worry about.
