Mobile Phones > Swivel Mobile Phones

Advantages: style/ look/ colour
Disadvantages: battery

Before this phone I had a Erikson which I loved but wanted a change. I mainly use my phone for texting (heavy use!) and calls. This phone is easy to text from and I've had no problems, the only thing it doesn't let you do is construct a text whilst sending a previous one (a feature of my old phone). Calling wise is also easy - but it doesn't have a loudspeaker application which really useful at times. The volume in the phone is fine, as is the signal ...
...bags/ pockets without too much of a problem. One of the downsides is the battery life of the phone - I need to charge it most nights despite not really using it for much other than texting. Also, when it's on the last bar it goes really quickly. It looks smart though and is nice and dinky. When I've used the mp3 it seems fine and can hold a fair few songs. ... Read review

Advantages: small, texts and phones, unique, games, loads of features, good quality sound
Disadvantages: sluggish, no movie function, battery life, joystick and charger is fiddly, rubbish ringtones supplied

...clip in. I've seen other motorola models with the same issue. WHAT I LIKE: The V80 is small which makes it good to carry. Overall it feels sturdy, better than my previous Nokias anyway. The sound quality is good and it has a speaker for when your hands are tied. The screen size is just right and is good quality. It has loads of features, not that i use many of them, but they're still there. The lights around the screen are cool. At a glance you ...
...green and amber. Speaker is good quality. The two games supplied (hungry fish and skipping stones) are decent and pass the time. WHAT I DON'T LIKE: Joystick - bit fiddly. Charger - bit fiddly. And the main, most annoying thing is its slow going through the menus, and even texting. The phone works a second or two behind you. Doesn't sound much, but it is annoying. My Nokia 5110 and 3210 kept up with me. Oh and the camera is rubbish and you can't ... Read review

Advantages: 2 finger typing, Large screen
Disadvantages: swivel keypad a bit clumsy!

That's what this phone screams out. Trouble is, it's all mouth and no trousers. The swivel out keypad may make you think "hang on, we got a great phone here" but to be honest, it'll drive you mental within 2 days (well, it did with me anyhow!) If you can see past that, then what you got is a fairly decent phone , packed with features and easy to use. It does feel a bit wierd at first, and i found i got strange looks on the train having this thing ... Read review

Advantages: its pink
Disadvantages: ?

I purchased a pink nokia 7373 and have so far not had any problems what so ever with this phone. I would say to anyone that is thinking of buying this phone do it. The picture quality is excellent (though the camera does not have a flash) You can hold around 5 songs on the phone depending on file size. I bought a 2gb memory card from the phone shop for my phone which means i can know put over 200 songs on my phone. the card also allows me to hold ...
...in a bronze or black colour, thought they are generally harder to get hold off. if you have butter fingers like me and tend to be always dropping you're phone you will find that this phone does not scratch easily Buy the nokia 7373 you wont regret it. ... Read review

Advantages: appearance, storace space, swivel
Disadvantages: button size, volume

The best thing about the Samsung SGH X830 is its appearance; unfortunately, the praise for this rather small phone ends there. The mp3 player is far to quiet as are the ringtones and the sounds provided with the phone clumsy and childish. The screen is far too small and narrow, even for those with perfect eyesight and the small buttons hard to use. The swivel is one of the nice touches of the phone adding character and is relatively easy to use. ...
...is confusing after only a few hours you will be texting just as fast as you did previously. When I first purchased the phone one of my friends commented that she 'would find it annoying' and surprisingly I do not. Despite all the phones faults it really does have some good assets. Of course, its size is useful, making it easy to carry around, and even with the tiniest of outfits one can usually find somewhere to store it on a night out. Its initial ... Read review
