I recieved this phone at Christmas of 1999 and initially was very happy with it. I still have it now, 18 months later and have no intention what so ever of changing it. The phone is very simple to use. To start with, there is simply a big green button for yes, and a smaller red one for no and two arrows to scroll your way through the menus. It has the usual phone book feature, in which you are able to store 90 names and numbers, it also has a quick-dial feature, in which you store 10 numbers, and by simply keying in one number, you can access one of your friends. The text message feature is very easy to use. The buttons are nice and big, so it easy to ...  Read the complete review

This is the basic Orange "pay as you go" phone, and basic is the operative word. It has voicemail, text messages and five or six (dull) ringtones. If you want a plain phone to call people with, it's great. If you're looking for something with games and nice covers, buy a gameboy. The phone is pretty simple to use - I taught my grandfather (age 80 and never used a mobile before) how to make and receive calls, how to top up credit and how to use the voicemail. There is a shortcut menu with most of the main features (like voicemail, call divert and message editor) on it and on the newest phones this also has pretty little icons. There is a BIG ...  Read the complete review

Ringtones?Logos?Vibrating ringer?Games? I know nothing of these and don't wish to. The Motorola c520 was my second mobile phone,which I used to replace a horrible trendy Nokia 3210. The Motorola is a nice chunky size,so it can't be lost as easily in the bottom of my bag,behind the bed as a smaller more fashionable phone can be.Some people mght find that annoying as it wouldn't fit in a small trouser pocket of tiny handbag when out clubbing. It is fairly heavy but still nice and comfortable to use and unlike the Nokia I had before does not slip out of my hands constantly.Button size is large so it is really easy to see especially when ...  Read the complete review

This phone is available as 'boxed and ready' or pay as you go. I had the boxed and ready package which basically means I payed £99 for the phone, charger and 12 months line rental inclusive of 15 minutes talk time per month. As I only wanted it for emergency use I thought that this would be adequate for my needs. It is okay but next time I will transfer to pay as you go as I think that this will be more suitable. You don't run up any bills and therefore if you can't afford much you only get a £5 top up card and use the phone less often. The actual phone is ideal for anyone who is buying one for the first time. Initially all you have to do is plug ...  Read the complete review
