Yeah, Stephens got one, theyre quite gud. Ive jus got a new fone yesterday, not a flip one, but I dont think there's much choice atm
I reckon the phone you saw on Ebay just happened to have the o2 badge on it and someone's title'd it wrong. X1 might be the model of another brand - as far as i'm aware they don't make phones? o2 is a service like vodafone, orange and t-mobile etc.. correct me if i'm wrong.. (rob!)
nice essay young nass but afraid your wrong this time fella the xa is an o2 branded mobile, jus like the xda ii is an o2 branded pda... for the record as well - the o2 x1 is SHOCKING!!! stay away
its buggy as hell. keeps switching off. call quality is poor. camera is only average. phone build quality is poor. etc best flip fone out atm is the new Sharp GX 30. get em on ebay for £300 ish
Sooooooooo true! I bought one of these and I SOOOO wish I hadn't! The "keeps switching off" point I wouldn't agree with until tonight when it...kept switching off The camera is CRAP, really slow response from when you press to take the picture and when it actually takes it, and you MUST be in bright light, it gets crap when you have any sort of dim light. It's also SLOW as fuck! I text people and I'm finding myself typing half way through the text and on the screen it's only just showing the first line, so if I make a typo I find out a while after, and so have to go right back to correct it! Standard ringtones are shit, embarrasingly shit actually I always keep it on silent! *However* - It does look nice! - If you're already on O2 and you get this phone they give you quite a bit of credit with it for upgrading. I got £35 put on, simply for buying a new phone and staying with O2! It's lasting me ages! - Though above points are true, it's not completely crap, it does what it needs to do, but I've seen other phones that are in the same price range and go way beyond the capabilities of the O2 X1. Do NOT buy this phone!
the new nokia one is supposed to be good... it looks cool an its supposed to be good 'under the bonnet' as it were... has changable covers too.
My advice is don't get a flip phone. What do you want you phone to do? which of these features are you bothered about? camera good quality camera bluetooth web browser email msn messenger mp3 playback and storage very small predictive text Might help someone (prob sleepy) suggest a good phone for you.
me mam said it was like trying to work nasa space control, she sent it back and got a differant one in under 4 days
What is everyone's obsession with small phones? I bloody hate the things, so easy to lose, so hard to use. I would personally pay extra for a normal sized model of a phone, relative to a micro mini "sim card +screen" model. Not saying i's have a brick tho To get to the point I am obtusely rambling towards here, the Nokia 3650 and its (smaller :E ) successor the 6600, have spot on functionality IMO. Run symbian, have Bluetooth, good quality video with sound, spot on still quality + night vision mode perfect for pics in dark clubs, play MP3s / wavs / record sound, use MP3s etc as ringtones. And a really unique and easy to use ( once u get used to it ) set of buttons. Not very small and not a flip fone tho
