Decent sound quality ; solid design and build ; excellent screens ; Microsoft Exchange support ; push email ; HSDPA data ; decent music format support ; FM transmitter integrated

too many button presses required to return to home screen ; doesn't recall the function you were in if you close the phone then reopen ; uncomfortable (flip)phone style ; very prone to contamination by hand and face body oils, always needs wiping to look...
