This phone was my first real phone, bar one that I was given for a short period of time. It was only cheap, and cost me 20 quid at the time, plus 15 pounds worth of top up vouchers. It came with the Virgin services.
It is a simple enough phone to look at; dark grey and silver in colour, with a small black and white screen with a faint backlight. It has no ariel, and no flippy out bits. It is curved, and very small and light.
The screen is small, but can show a suprisingly good display when it comes to games and menus and the like. However, as the wap function does not let you view images, and you can not download new games, this is kinda wasted.
The sound quality is very good as well; this is the only mobile phone I have ever owned that has a speaker phone on it. The quality of it is very good, and it is also louder than most household speaker phones. The ringtones it supports are both mono and polyphonic, and again, are very clear.
Downloads on this phone are now non existant since the website changed. I have not found any website or magazine that has any kind of downloads for this phone, and even on the website it was only ringtones, However, when the site was up and running, they were for free. My phone has a full memory of free polyphonic ringtones, as I deleted the monophonic.
The Trium 110p comes with two games, about 20 monophonics ringtones, and about 10 polyphonic ringtones. You were able to write over them, but you can't now that there is no way to download them. It also comes with a set of three graphics, that change the home screen and menu displays.
It is a simple phone to use. You can set the two soft keys to whatever you find the most useful, and you can access the phone book by pressing the left arrow once. To access the main menu, press the right arrow. From there it is basic up and down to scroll, right to access, and left to go back.
The buttons are well spaced out, and so there is little chance of pressing a wrong button. The phone fits perfectly into the palm of your hand, and it is generally able to be used in one hand.
There is a vibration function on it, and adjustable volume control. There is also a calculator, alarm clock, and a little notebook that can hold about 6 message of about 50 characters, which is only really good for email addresses.
Now, as the phone has little extras on it, you may well be wondering why I rated it so high. The answer is durability. I have never seen a phone so strong as this! My one still works absolutely fine, and here is a list of what happened to it in its time...
-Dropped down the stairs twice -Trodden on countless times -Set fire to using deoderant and a lighter -Dropped in a river and went down a waterfall, fully submerged for over a minute -Lost in a wet field for ten minutes before I found it -Back case lost, meaning battery held in using sellotape
Despite this, it still works fine, albeit with a very short battery life now, and the vibration is very... juddery.
Because of this, this phone definatly deserves the full 5 stars.

Would that be classed as arson then!! For a 'cheaper' make its certainly withstanding the abuse! :-)
