'GOOD, BUT NOT PERFECT'

Strengths:
Very east to set up with plenty of space around the twin SCART sockets. Provision of digital coaxial audio out is excellent. Menu's work well and the remote is a doddle to use.

Weaknesses:
Picture quality not as good as I would have expected. Build quality a bit "plasticky" especially the lift-up front flap to access the CAM slot for Top-up TV.

Overall:
A quality product with all the right connections.

'WORST EVER PURCHASE'

Strengths:
When working - nice picture.

Weaknesses:
Locked up frequently (sometimes twice a day!) which meant a power off/on routine!. And - Yes I did add updated software via my pc, no better. The Forum guys on "Digital Spy" have given the Nokia 221T a (well deserved, in my opinion) roasting.

Overall:
I took my Nokia 221T back to Currys (when 11 months old) and they swopped it for free for a Sony box - amazing service. The Sony box is faster and has not needed a power on/off reset in the 5+ months of ownership.

'NOT TOO BAD, BUT THERE ARE BETTER'

Strengths:
Easy to set up, twin scarts, digital and analogue sound out. Also easy to use and navigate through the menus.

Weaknesses:
It does lock up sometimes. I have not upgraded the firmware at all.

Overall:
I have had it for 2+ years now and it has served me well. My next purchase will be one with a hard disk - I recommend you do the same.
