The keyboard is responsive and offers an excellent means of entering data and text.

The display screen on the phone is a 2.4 inch TFT screen which offers excellent colour reproduction due to its ability to display up to 16 million colours. The screens ability to display so many colours and their variants means that images have true life like colour and are vibrant.

The HSDPA connection which is also integrated into the unit is able to provide fast internet access. Satellite navigation has become the standard on several ranges of phones, and the GPS with A-GPS support feature included with this phone offers that facility.

An MP3/MP4 player is included within the package and offers the ability to download and play a large variety of audio and video files. The phone comes with an internal memory capacity of 128 Mb and with some packages comes with a 2 Gb card, however this can be expanded further by the use of the microSD card facility up to 8 Gb.
