The 8210 is a fantastic phone, with many great features. It has to be one of the best phones on the market. It boasts state of the art technology in a great design, and is not just a pretty face! Heres why I think its great. Ive set its main aspects out in a list, therefore making it easier to remember for you. I find lists are easier to memorise rather than long paragraphs.

DISADVANTAGES
Not many disadvantages, but just the odd couple.
So small its difficult to play snake and sometimes you hit the wrong key
A bit easy to lose because of the size (good or bad thing?)
Battery life isn't excellent. (120-200mins talktime, 50 - 150 hours standby) However this is OK due to its small size.
