NEC 411i

This is a good phone for the money. It's one of the first phones that features i-mode - a new standard that makes it easy to access the web and use e-mail from a mobile phone. In addition to the i-mode capability, you get a lot of features for your money: a high quality internal display (although the outer display isn't the best and is hard to read in bright light), an excellent 1.3 megapixel camera plus a video camera, an MP3 player (not the best but good for the money) and a good-looking compact design.

The MP3 player is a welcome bonus, but don't expect it to replace your iPod. With only 25 Mbytes of user memory, you can't store many music tracks. It's a shame too that you can't use MP3 tracks as ringtones - an obvious design error by NEC - but you can use video ringtones instead (take a video of your friend and use that as the ringtone when they call you). The phone also features 12-colour LED lights that flash when you have an incoming call.

The phone comes with Bluetooth, however this is restricted to use with Bluetooth headsets only. It cannot be used to transfer files. Instead there is a USB and infrared port that can be used to transfer data between phones or from phone to PC.

In summary, this is a good phone that represents excellent value for money. It offers plenty of features, although there are limits to what it can do. If you don't require Bluetooth for file transfer, if you don't want MP3 ringtones, and if you're willing to work with a slightly tricky menu, then the NEC 411i is a nice looking compact phone with plenty of gadgets and the added benefit of i-mode.
