Had an LG Viewty and im totally sick of touch screens, used to have the Walkman phones a lot so im going back to them

Anyone used or got one of these W995's ??

Cheers

*update*

only been using the phone for about an hour but im real pleased with it. Got lots of cool features, the screen is really bright and everything is easy to use. Very glad i moved on from the LG Viewty to this bad boy. Plus it has an 8GB memory card, 8mega pixel camera and a proper headphone jack. along with some external speakers you can use as a boombox they go well loud

overall i would give it 4 out of 5.. only downside it the locking mechanism. unless you are on the homescreen it doesnt lock in any sub menus.. unless i am missing something (which i probably am cos thats a silly feature otherwise)

Oh who you with? Orange is still showing as "coming soon". But I get my new phone on the 29th June so hopefully they'll have it by then!

played around with it lots more now..

The camera isnt all that good TBH considering its 8megapix

The internet is faster than my old LG and its got some borrowed features like "Near Me" where you can find local shops, bars, cinemas, restaurants etc via GPS. select the one you want and it brings up a google map, address, phone number etc.

the screen is really bright and easy to use

overall, really like it

Sounds good.

Most camera phones are shite, whatever the megapixels, mainly due to the lenses and what not. Better of going for a cheap £50 camera!
