Pros:

Shoots like a camera, thinks like a smartphone. Quick on the draw with barely perceptible shutter lag. Solid color in still images. Smooth 1080p video is better than most other smartphone offerings. Responsive and fast across a number of applications. And

Cons:

Feature set calls for more than an 8GB memory card. No optical zoom. Power users may find photo effects too handson. Slow to boot. Hohum 400×800 resolution display. Optical trackpad is mostly useless. Generic Android “Search” key replaced
