With the world's eyes on Nokia, Sony, Samsung and the other big mobile manufacturers, people would, at first glance, ignore this phone. Some might say this was by a 'nobody' company. But this phone does have it's good points.

It has a very nice colour screen, for starters, but it isn't utilised that much. It has backgrounds but you can only download them from Alcatel themselves, and the range is poor. You can't have the latest celebrities on your phone, say.

The polyphonics are OK too, but again, the downloadables can only be downloaded from Alcatel and the selection this time is even poorer. Want Crazy Frog? Sorry.

However, beyond the downloadables, this phone is quite good. It has a user-friendly interface and the instruction manual is well-written. The connection however can be quite weird, having good reception one minute then rubbish the next - in the same place.

The screen gets quite dusty on the inside quickly, and the screen can scratch, but it had a nice weight and feel to it. The rocker in the centre of the fascia can be a bit dodgy at times.

All in all, this is quite a nice phone. However, with a retail price of £69.99, it isn't worth it. However, if you buy it from Virgin Mobile reconditioned (good as new) you can get it for £30 or less - a much more pocket-friendly price.

In summary, this phone is a good replacement or back-up phone.
