This is a good phone - Especially for this price - but not perfect. The biggest problem is indeed Both speakers are very quiet. The maximum volume of ringing is arround half of phones normally. And the speech speaker is so weak - in noisy environment is hard to undertand the partner. The second problem is the ammount of RAM - 512MB is too low. Lot of programs suffering Because of this. The third problem is the battery. A double capacity battery would be much better then 2 standard ones. But probably Because of design simply can not fit bigger ... In rest I'm satisfied with the phone. The display quality is very good - Especially for the price - only it looses sharpness during scrolling - but this can be the problem of the video chip too. The speed of the phone is okay for everyday use - except when running out of memory. Have not found any compatibility problems with applications used by me. So in summary: with double loud speakers, double ammount of RAM and double capacity battery would be a perfect phone.
