Along the top are two rectangular buttons on the left and right hand side, marked with a horizontal line. These are the left and right selection buttons.

To the right of the left selection button are five buttons laid out in a cross shape. These are the arrow or navigation buttons.

Just below this are two more rectangular buttons on the left and right hand side. The left one is printed with a green telephone handset and is the call button. The one on the right, printed with a red telephone handset, is the end call/power button.

Next is a row of four small rectangular buttons. From left to right these are:

Speed dial A

The socket just below this is used to connect the mini USB charger.

On the bottom edge are two small square recesses. These are the battery connectors which come into play when using a desk charger to charge the phone.
