Anyone got a Panasonic VS6?

Looks like a great phone. If you have one can you let me know what your thoughts are.

I want to buy a Payg one on Virgin but use my T-Mobile sim card in it which I think will work. Does anyone know if they are Virgin branded though? Or whether menus etc are Virgin.

Thanks

The VS6's are all GSM stock from the Carphonewarehouse - which means they are all factory unlocked and have no branding on them whatsoever.

Yup, I have one, it's a really good phone. Screen is amazingly bright and clear, camera is excellent (I have some pics taken with it here and here alright if you like leaves

Both were taken with the Macro mode).

And I can confirm it's unlocked, no network branding whatsoever, just a Carphone Warehouse logo on start-up.

Some reviews said the earpiece volume was a bit quiet. What do you think?

It could be louder, definitely. I've used it fine in a busy, noisy shopping centre and I could hear. If you were to be in a really loud environment though, you may have problems.
