Optical zoom is whats necessary for quality pictures I was told, yet so many people put it down to just being the megapixels.
The main flaw with the phone is that its simply ugly as hell and its got too much screen which is inevitably going to get scratched or cracked and look like crap, then you add all the finger prints onto of the damage and you dont have a decent looking phone at all and you'll probably give it to your teenage child for their birthday so you have an excuse to get the phone you were advised to get in the first place that was actually cheaper.

Megapixel does not equal better picture, even with enlargements more pixels does not mean it will blow up better. Lenses(type, quality), size of sensor, type of sensor, and others all make a big difference. You only need to look at say a 8Meg Canon 20D DLSR vs a 9/10 Meg compact. I know where my money would be on quality of enlargements.
Optical zoom is the only real zoom, digital is just cropping the number of pixels you use and displaying it at full size. Ignore any digital zoom figure as its worthless
Ugly, nope, Even I'll give it that, its stylish to look at, whether it will be resilient to scratches etc I doubt it but out the box its nice to look at and hold.
