Advantages: small,stylish,cheap

Disadvantages: not many features,reading texts and sending texts a bit of a pain

I bought this phone after my 3 year old motorola v3 gave up the ghost. First of all that was great was teh price £15 from argos,great buy,now i only wanted a phone to text and phone so i wanted as few features as possible.This only comes with internet via gprs,there is no camera,no bluetooth,no mp3 player.Its small and stylish and slides open,the keys are very easy to use and once inside the menu system its all very straight forward ( i didn't read the manual). I only have a few gripes with this phone,firstly the text system,when you recieve a text you do not get the option to view it as soon as it comes,you have to go through the on screen menu all in all about 5 button presses,instead of the usual open button on most phones.Another one is when sending a text to someone you have to press about 5 options just to send to that person.The final one is when you have the phone in your pocket it slides open if you are not careful although the phone is locked its not brilliant.All in all its a great phone for the price very basic has good tools like a calculator,calender,voice memo,to do list,alarm and currency convertor.Really pleased with this.Voice calls are very clear too.

Summary: good for the price if you want a basic phone
