XDA Orbit in the sun

Forget it, you can't see a thing.

Now does that make the phone unusable and liable for return under some
sales of goods act ?

I'm not being *****y. I really do like the thing but it's useless in
the day with the sun out and that makes it unusable

I don't have any difficulty seeing mine in the sunlight. Go into
settings and whack the brightness up to max.

My Nokia e61 is fine in the sun. It has an environment sensor which
adjusts the contrast/backlight depending on light conditions.

What the OP needs is a Nokia 7110. LCD screen, fine all the time.
