Sony Ericsson Elm ---------- Why I Chose This Phone And General Info ---------- After having a Blackberry for a year which all though I could do a lot on it, I just wanted a simple phone that was easy to use. I didn't want it to be very expensive like an iphone, I didn't want it to be touch screen or have a QWERTY key pad, I didn't want it to be too big and I wanted it to have a good camera as I don't actually own a camera, that's when Sony Ericsson Elm came into the picture! I got Sony Ericsson Elm from Amazon for around £120. For me I find that a reasonable price for the standards of this phone. The Sony Ericsson Elm, is an 'eco friendly' phone. It is ...  Read the complete review

I took this phone on contract at £10 with TalkMobile for a 24 month period. The phone itself retails for around £100 give or a take a bit more or less depending on the carrier. The phone struck me straight away for its unique curved design and simple yet elegant candybar look. Sony Ericsson bucked the trend of high-spec touch screen and its good because it makes this phone stand out. Amazingly it is also packed with a 5megapixel camera with LED flash. Its flaunted as being Green in that it uses recycled material. One would think that would mean the quality is poor, however this far from true; the phone reeks of quality. Whilst it may not boast ...  Read the complete review

I originally bought this phone as I was looking for a phone which had WIFI but still used the old Sony Ericsson software, I had limited choice when it came to finding this specification but the ELM ticked all the boxes and at a budget price!

Shape ~~~~~ The shape of the phone is rather small, rectangular like a lot of the older models but much thinner and lighter! it also has a curved back (according to the manual this was designed to prevent the phone ...  Read the complete review

I have a silver Sony Ericsson Elm (or J10i2), which I bought due to wanting a good phone with 3G as my last phone was only 2G. I looked through a number of phones, but kept finding touchscreens and QWERTY keyboards, neither of which I wanted. As I always having cold hands touchscreens generally don't work for me and even if I could use the menu and so on easily enough I wouldn't want to text that way. As for QWERTY keyboards, I have long nails so I'd always be catching more than one button as they are so small. So this led me on a search to find just a normal phone, which was more difficult than I thought. A lot of basic phones were fine for the ...  Read the complete review

This phone is described as an eco friendly phone, as it is made from recycled materials. This isn't the primary reason I bought the phone, however if it is possible for phones to be more environmentally friendly then I'm all for it. I chose this phone as despite the craze for iphones, blackberrys and androids, I was merely looking for a standard phone with pretty basic requirements and that had buttons. There seems to be a huge decline in phones that provide buttons and a large range of touchscreen phones available which isn't what I was after. The cost of the phone at the time I bought it was over £100, however it is available online for a lower price. ...  Read the complete review
