Hi All
This phone is absolute crap and i do repent now for buying this handset. This phone has no features working like push mail and many other things. You can’t find a reply option for your incoming message. The most important issue is their after sales service.
I am suffering a lot in searching for its accessories. Power goes off in between a call and no response from their service centers by mail or phone as the nearest service center to me is some 90 Kms.
I am worried for its battery and ear phone voice quality as i am unable to get them. Battery lasts for few hrs and my phone is only 45 days old.

I had purchased this phone in Aug ’10 and had taken it thrice to service center. I had to change it PCB (Since it was a manufacturing defect). The phone used to get hang. PCB got replaced after 3-4 weeks. Even they don’t have the service center and people who had their agency cancelled it because the company doesn’t give them proper service while replacing any part.
My headphones to broke on the 1st day of use.
I also had a problem with the charger and that too I got replaced.
Now with the new PCB I have one new problem. If the mobile is switch off and then you switch on the mobile then I the sms stored in the phone memory gets deleted. For that I had to updated a s/w which can be done only at one place in malad, mumbai and not any of their service center.
