A mid range Nokia candy bar phone that although is primarily an entry level model it does have good Bluetooth capability & everything that should be on a modern phone without being in the Smartphone range.

There's decent speaker & hands-free volume & the contacts list can be large. The camera is only VGA but for me it's enough for the odd snap & the phone's memory is 10 megabytes. I bought this model from Virgin branded with their software & Bites links, & when you strip it of the dreadful Nokia wallpapers & introductory videos you end up with about 8 MB of space to use. More than enough for lots of photos at best quality usually coming out at around 50 to 90 kb.

I gave only 65% for usability because although talking & texting is perfect, it suffers from what most mobile manufacturers fail to be honest about, namely battery life. If you go online with any WAP or 3G phone (this range or Smartphones) they eat up battery life in minutes. But the email setup is the easiest it's ever been, enter your user name & password & tell it what yahoo or hotmail you use, & it works in seconds.

The best feature about this range of N-Series 40 with medium & large text font. Useful for anyone over forty that wears reading glasses & forgets to take them to work.

Great, stylish phone at an amazing price. Got it for Rs 3100. I have been using it for the past two weeks & no problems yet. Only a VGA camera but picture quality is above average & is better than many other basic phones. Battery lasted for more than three days with couple of hours calling. Only has 10 MB memory. No memory card slot. Sound quality is good but the volume is little bit low. It has Bluetooth also.

Overall great phone. After all what more can you expect for such a price. I would highly recommend this phone to anyone who wants a stylish basic phone with a camera & Bluetooth.
