The i8510 INNOV8 looks really good, even though it is one of the thicker smartphones. The straight edged sides which end in rounded corners make the device look both stylish and professional. The screen of the phone is also top class, allowing you to view your favorite media in style. Browsing through menus and web pages is a breeze with the intuitive navigation controls. The phone is a slider phone with a sound sliding mechanism that can even be operated in one hand. Some users might be put off this phone due to the lack of a full QWERTY keyboard, so make sure that you try out the keypad before buying the phone.
Overall, the phone is one of the best smartphones in the market right now, both in terms of features and build. The only criticism is that the phone comes with a high price tag to match, making it a luxury device that not many people can afford. The camera of the phone is excellent, allowing photos taken to be even clearer than photos captured by the Nokia N95. The photo editing options, allow you to have fun with the photos that you capture. The high speed data transfer capability means that you can upload the captured photos directly to any social networking websites easily. Even the built in speakers are really good allowing you to use the phone as a top class media player . The speakers are not in the class of phones like the Nokia 5610, but they do their job of playing music loud and clear pretty well.
