Apart from the standard features that a phone comes with such as contacts, calendar, etc, you will notice that the Neon comes with a 2.0 megapixel camera (with video capabilities). In addition, it has a MP3 Player with FM Radio, Stereo Bluetooth, and can hold up to 4 GB of extra memory.
The overall weight of the Neon is light, only a measly 108 grams so this will not fell heavy in your pocket or hand. More importantly, the 2.4 inch screen will make it easy to write your e-mail/text messages, view pictures, games. However, using the internet on some pages did not render the pages well. We are still testing the battery life on this, but found the call quality (sending and receiving calls) to be clear.

Overall, we really like the Neon and its price point. This decent slider has a full QWERTY keyboard and comes in Pink and Grey. Check out the video review here:
