In the opinion of one evaluation panel, this is a well designed and easy to use smartphone. It has the usual features you’d expect on a smartphone: front and back cameras, Bluetooth, access to apps – with added features such as large text and a simple user-interface. The smartcover is a very clever idea and will be really useful for people who are new to using a touch-screen phone – it can also be kept on when using the charging cradle which is great. A recommended choice.
