Review My Phone

Total girls phone! Now that I’ve got that out of the way I can get on with reviewing the Nokia 7373. This phone is perfect for a girl who likes to have a phone as an accessory and for the man this phone is also available in a more masculine bronze, although not as easy to get hold of. Despite the pretty exterior this phone is not soft on the inside, it is ram packed full of the best features around. The nokia naming convention went out of the window ending in a 3, and this model breaks regular conventions having a swizzle screen that goes round.

One thing I found to be lacking was the memory from this phone being only 11mbs internally, however this was made up for by the addition of a memory card slot, and a free 128mb card in the package. Perfect for storing music on for the mp3 player. You can also store pictures and films on it from the 2 mega pixel camera with 8 times optical zoom.

The games upon this mobile are very fun and you can download java ones if you get bored through the phones very own web based browser, or through USB connectivity.

Best Features -expandable memory plus free card, swizzle, optical zoom
Worst Features -quite girly, poor internal memory

Review by Ian

Introducing the stainless steel phenomenon that is the Nokia 8600, this spectacular phone is amazing, it has a 2 mega pixel camera, the images of which are wonderfully displayed on the high resolution screen. This phone I’m sure you will agree is very attractive and desirable, however this sexy look comes at a cost, and that being weight, the steel makes this phone rather heavy, don’t get me wrong at 140g its still light but compared to other phones its rather weighty.

This nokia has a big memory of 128mbs which is internal this is quite big and more than makes up for there being no storage card slot. This is annoying but the me the internal memory is plenty enough to store the pictures and videos I have taken. There are many feature on this rather stylish quad band phone, such as mp3 ringtones and java games.

I found that this has one of the best browsers around for looking at the Internet, and goes at a fast speed. There is good connectivity featuring USB and bluetooth, its easy to share and swap videos and pictures, and not to forget the great FM radio for staying in touch with what is happening and keeping you entertained.

Best Features - FM radio, Stylish Look

Worst Features - Heavy, no memory card slot, only 2 mega pixel

Review by Ian

Nokia phone have been getting lots more stylish lately and this phone is no expection, looks very cool and sophisticated. The Nokia 5310 is a groundbreaker in the nokia music phone range, having the usual great FM radio and a built in media player for playing your mp3 and videos, there are even buttons on the side of the screen for flicking between the tracks, and pausing them.

This phone features a solid 2 mega pixel camera, which is takes a good quality pictures, but not the best on the market, which you can easily sent via MMS or Email. With edge technology on this phone emails and the internet are even faster than the standard WAP on most mobiles.

This phone is extremely small being less than 10mm thick and weighing 71g, it combines a powerful interface with aa compact size, totally sucessfully. Even the batter life is good being 300 hours on standby mode.One feature i like was the ‘xpress-on covers’ which allow you to easily change the look of this phone.

The Nokia 5310 has only minor drawbacks like not being able to make video calls, which isn’t essential for most people, and having a less than perfect camera, but the camera it has does a good job and is adequate for most peoples needs. This phone unless lots of nokias will work in America as its Triband as opposed to the usual Dual Band models.

This phone in my opinion is one of the best avaliable for the money, with many applications avaliable to download and cheap covers to liven up you mobile.

Firstly I would like to say I know this isn’t the most cutting edge technology on the phone market today, however the nokia 2630 is very affordable while still having many of the features of these phones of god like status. The camera is quite good quality and very reliable at taking a clear quality picture and recording video.

If you and considering buying this phone then I would say you should just go for it, especially as its price is cheap at the moment. The phone is very light and easy to place in your pocket and not worry about an unsightly bulge, being less than 10 mm thick and only 66g in weight.

This small size has some disadvantages aswell such as limiting the memory to a miserable 11mb, but you can backup your pictures and videos on your pc or mac with great USB connectivity or through bluetooth. A further kick in the teeth is there is not way to expand this memory through a card, and as a consequence nokia have left out there standard media player from the 2630, but the addition of the inbuilt FM stereo more than makes up for this in my books.

If you get bored with this phone they games are sure to grab your attention and the internet browser can easily find you the lastest new headlines, and go on some of the top sites around, now with even faster speed due to the inclusion of EDGE technology.

Best Features - small, lightweight, good camera, FM radio, EDGE,

Worst Features - No memory card slot, no media player

Review by Ian

Nokia, 6300 - I have been meaning to review this phone for quite some time, to tell you exactly what I like and don’t like about it, first of all its clearly not the best phone in the world, but its a very reliable model. There is a camera which is handy for taking snaps with a 8 times optical zoom and produces a good picture but is only a standard 2 mega pixels. The internal memory of 9mb is hardly sufficient to handle the photos and videos you take, however there is a micro SD card slot which you can fit up to a 8gb card and enables alot more pictures to be taken.

The sound on this phone is very good indeed, with from listening to music in headphones, to talking on it its clear clarity. One added feature for you is voice dialling, so you can say your contacts name followed by a word of your choice and you phone will ring them, its that simple. And if they ring you, the mp3 ringtone will help you hear the call, being so loud you can easily here. Oh and one thing I forgot to mention for people who want to listen to music, there is an inbuilt FM stereo into the phone.

The standby time for this time is awesome being of 350 hours, but talktime is only 3 and a half, so if you use your phone alot to call then this probably isn’t the best phone for you, but if you like to leave it on standby then this could be the one for you.

This phone doesn’t have 3G which means no video calling or fast web browsing, although Edge technology is used, which is faster than GPRS but slower than 3G.

Best Features - 8X Optical Zoom, 16million colour screen, speaker(voice dialling, music, mp3 ringtones) , lightweight(91g)

Worst Features - 9mb internal memory, short talk time (3.5 hours), no 3G,

Don’t you think this phone has that stylish look to it, because I do. I am admiring the look of this product, the sliding function especially appeals to me. Fortunately this phone doesn’t cost the earth, unlike so many other good phones. As with most Sony-Ericsson’s you can leave it laying around without worrying about the battery life. Why not talk for longer with 9 hours calltime on a single charge, I know I could talk this long in a single day. And now you can call home from the USA with this quad-band phone, which works all over the globe.

The W580i is very thin and light being only 94 grams, less than the weight of 3 bags of walkers crisps, how light is that? This small size however doesn’t compromise on functionality with a solid 2 mega pixel camera, and a top mp3 player application. The music can either be store on an external memory card if you have alot and also on the phones internal memory of 12mb.

The internet on this phone is very accessible and fast, with the ability to check your email swiftly and reliably. Other connectivity includes bluetooth and usb for easy files swapping with your pc or MAC.

The Sony Ericsson W580i is the phone for anyone who wants a reliable and reasonably priced phone, from the office to the gym this model really does everything I want and more.

Welcome to the most affordable phone from 3, despite this tag, its actually a very good model with some great features. The Nokia 6120 can be used anywhere in the world as it’s a quadband model. You can use it for video calls which come up look clear with the 320 by 240 resolution display.

The one think I personally don’t like about this phone is the way it looks, but that’s probably because I’m a guy and pink isn’t my favourite colour. However it is reasonably light being 89g and nicely sliding into my pocket, being 15mm wide, its a bit bigger than many of the smaller phones on the market but hey the features totally make up for this.

What else can I say about this nokia? Well its connectivity is very good, bluetooth and a lovely Internet browsing. The battery life if one of the best for a videophone. To me this phone doesn’t seem very professional, its seems a fun light hearted design, which I did enjoy, especially the in built games.

Best Features -3G, video calls, light weight

Worst Features - Look of the phone, only on 3

Review by Ian

The first thing that strikes me about this phone is its stylish keypad layout, which i think looks awesome and makes the buttons more easily pressable. The nokia 6500 is crammed with features, it even embraces 3G and has a video call functionality.

The camera is a 2 mega pixel one, but its quality appears to be more than this, and it uses flash which is very handy and works quite brightly. The large memory on this phone is a great place to store lots of pictures, and they can then easily be moved to your PC desktop.

The colour on this phone has 16.7 million different shades, and has a very good resolution and this is a pretty technologically advanced model, and the price is reasonable. The one flawe in my opinion is the battery life which has been known to run down pretty swiftly.

This phone would be very handy if you want a small lightweight model, that fits very nicely into your pocket, it manages to fit in so many wonderful features into 94g, and is very thin aswell. These features however are primarily behind the high battery use.

Worst Features - no memory card slot, battery life
Review by Ian

Pure luxury, in a phone, the Nokia 8800 is for the businessman or woman who wants that sophisticated professional look. This phone can do alot of tricks and is perfect for when you are away from the office, there are office documents viewer, and EDGE technology for easy checking your emails and fast browsing of the net.

Another function which is great for international traveller is the triband functionality, which mean it can be used in most overseas countries including the USA.

The memory is not expandable which is a bit of a pain, being only 64mbs, the FM radio is particularly good with really brilliant sound clarity. There is also a rather wonderful media player which you can listen to mp3s and watch videos.

Due to the metalicness of the case this model is incredibly hard wearing the only bad point to this phone is really its price which is rather high, although it could be considered an investment for your business. The camera on this phone is rather nice leaving my experience with this phone to be rather pleasureable.

Best Features - Triband, hard wearing, good internet browser, bluetooth, video recorder

Worst Features - Not large enough memory, quite expensive

Review by Ian

Welcome to this review of a Nokia classic design, the 2310, the phone for people who want a small lightweight phone primarily for making phone-calls and texts.

First of all I have to mention the feature that I have found to be one of most essential to me, the in built FM radio which sets it apart from other similar low budget phones. As many of its competitors its a very lightweight, hard wearing model, with long battery life (400 hours standby, 360 minutes talk-time).

Along with all the positives about this phone, there are negatives, such as it not being capable of pictures messages, no camera in the phone and it having quite a low resolution screen (96 by 68 pixels). Although there is a lack of features, the price more than makes up for this being only £10 to by at UK shops. Despite being lightweight, the buttons are large making it easy for people with chunky fingers or poor eyesight to dial. The simple interface allows you to just type the number in a press the call button, no more messing around with complex keypads on some of the more expensive phone, dare i say it this phone would suite older people or those not so used to using this kind of technology, and allows them to use it with ease.

The Nokia 2310 has alot of things customizable, such as removable fascias which are available in a number of bright colours, which make it more stylish. You are also able to customize the screen savers, backgrounds and polyphonic ring-tones, as well as a controllable vibrating alert mode.
