I purchased this phone offline, not from Flipkart. My views :

(1) All the good points of S40 - everything that can be useful in one's life, in a not so fancy looking interface.

(2) Qwerty keypad is good. I also have a Blackberry, but a BB+Voice plan on postpaid is costly. So I purchased this, to replace my NOkia N97 mini, which touch screen was getting unwieldy.

The above two points are why I purchased the phone. Now here's what I miss or do not miss, not that it has turned my life upside down :

(3) I do not miss multi tasking. If you want that, better buy an android or some other smartphone.

(4) WhyTF can't Nokia provide smart search among names, like S60 phones ?

(5) Batter life sucks. Did not expect this from Nokia. But still manageable if you do not access the net.

(6) The red colour is the best among the three colours available in stores. Nothing great about white and the grey one does not look good. There is supposed to be a blue variant also which looks very good on the Nokia site. Not seen in stores.

My final words - On the whole, a good phone and successor to C3-00. But buy this now only if you are in a hurry to own this. Else wait for the price to drop by 1000 to 1500 INR.
