Bought as a replacement for my old phone. I bought this specifically for the camera. Easy to use for a technophobe like myself. Slightly smaller than I expected, but great for fitting in your handbag or pocket

Fantastic phone, awful manager
This phone is outstanding the best I've ever had. The reason for 3* is the manager at Imperial park was awful rude and threatening had a customer to help me has I was very shocked and shaken.

Purchased a new mobile. It was delivered to my local store the next morning. It couldn't have been simpler. Competitive with the price and a good website to look for what I wanted
