(+) First-class display with brilliant colors and outstanding resolution
(+) Excellent workmanship, very valent impression
(+) Surprisingly insensitive glossy surface
after 2 weeks little more careful use up no traces can be observed
(+) Reasonable, spontaneous response of the touch screen.
Tests in advance always spoke of too little computing power, I can not absolutely confirm.
(-) Extremely poor battery performance ((-) several system crashes in standard applications ---> (not yet mature) Software
(-) With various additional programs are missing essential functions, or settings
(-) Below average sound quality during phone call
(-) To insensitive Microphone
allows handsfree only in quiet surroundings and at max. 30cm distance to the device, so is impractical

Conclusion:
The device is characterized by optics and processing. If one value on design, so it can absorb the BL40 with any competing product, incl. The top dog Apple iPhone.
The BL40 will be a business unit and it is certainly not. The menu is indeed conceived and largely intuitive, lack of individualization but not completely satisfactory. Example: a - unimportant - world clock jumps one the main menu directly in the eye, one - often unused - computer is hidden in the depths of the sub-menu point 'Extras'. This and several other small Schnitzer would be forgiven, you could adjust themselves. That, however, does not go.
The newchocolate fan is sure to be less on the search for a functional workhorse and get over above points. He will have a certain penchant for individualism and do not want to add to this mass of iPhone owners. Whether he did on almost outrageously short battery life and the unstable software looks away, remains to be seen.
My personal euphoria has ebbed significantly in any case.
