low budget. GET THIS!!!

Advantages: big screen, 65k colours, great camera, video recording, GPRS and many more
Disadvantages: low battery life, and not much storage space.

The Sharp GX15, a brilliant phone, which has almost everything a person could want in a mobile. Camera, video recorder, picture messaging, internet(vodafone live), java games, bluetooth(to transfer data to other bluetooth devices) , infrare(to transfer data to other infrared enabled pda's) So this is the main features of the phone. I love this phone, i recently bought it and i'm over the moon with it. i picked it up for around £95, but now ive seen ...
...a bargain for what you get. Features (in detail) The Camera (bult in) on this phone is absolutely fantastic for the price. A megga 350,000 pixel resolution, and 4x digital zoom, which makes images and video look great on the fab 65,000 colour screen TFT (the TFT screen has a size of 120x160 so wuite a large display)) . The built in camera allows still images or video media recording, which also records audio at the same time. The only downside to ...

Sharp GX15 Review Unfortunately, my last review on the Nokia 3220 was rated very helpful overall, despite quite a few people giving it an exceptional rating. Thanks for the comments on that review anyway. This review will be quite similar to the last but with more information and I hope to hit an exceptional with this one! Why I Bought It. Well, when I received my first phone at the age of 13, it was stolen after a few days. Fortunately, I knew ...
...a glossy, shiny and sleek Sharp GX15. At the time, it was quite a popular phone and was well worth its money. Unfortunately, I soon saw another phone on contract with '3', so I got that only a few months after buying this one. But this review is all about my experiences of this wonderful little phone and I hope you enjoy it! Functions (the main features…explained) Built in Digital Camera. This was the second phone I had with a camera. I treated ...

The Odd One Out !!!

Advantages: It has a camera on it and bluetooth.
Disadvantages: The pictures come out blurry

...any network by vodafone or sharp for a fee of £20, but from what I have been told about this is that it is not a very efficient service and I would recommend getting it unlocked by another service. The reception on vodafone around this area is not the best, but this phone comfortably recieves 3 bars of signal. The batteries on these phones do not last very well and you would be expected to charge it up every 3 days if you do not use it at all. ...

Razor Sharp

Advantages: small, large screen, easy to use
Disadvantages: short battery life

...when I upgraded to a sharp gx10i a couple of years ago I was at first, understandably, I feel, a bit wary. However, the sharp phones are very easy to use, and the instruction manuals are extremely helpful. I loved my gx10, (especially seeing as it was my first flip-phone), so when I was offered a free upgrade to the gx15 I grudgingly accepted it. As I am on a vodafone contract I got the gx15 free after having the gx10i for a year. When I received ...
...all the wonderful aspects of the gx10i, and then improvements on top of it. The first delight of it is the size of the screen. The phone is relatively small, and the manafacturers decided that of the screen and the buttons, they would make the screen larger and the buttons smaller. This decision I applaud; the buttons are still easy to use and don't look uncharacteristically big on the model, and the screen is large enough to read almost a whole ...

Sharp GX15

Advantages: Large colour screen, bluetooth, easy to use, lightweight
Disadvantages: Short battery life, weak reception, no call duration info

...was unsure of purchasing a Sharp as by my reckoning Nokia phones are the easiest to use and most consumer friendly. The GX15 has a very easy to use menu system and things are located where you would expect to find them. The camera button is conveniently located on the side, though can also be accessed via the menu screen. The volume button is also side mounted and easy to use. The phone is small and lightweight but manages to fit a decent rear mounted ...
...is however no flash and the night adjustment button does little. There is however a digital zoom function and an exposure function which does prove useful. The camera unfortunately is rear mounted and therefore taking a photograph of yourself can be a bit hit and miss. Texting and MMS messaging are straightforward and come with predictive text. Sending and recieving emails is easy, though only one image can be sent per message which can be fraustrating. ...

Bargain Bells Ringing

Advantages: Bluetooth, mp3
Disadvantages: NOt 3G

...have only just recieved the Sharp gx-15 as an insurance replacement for my tm-100. My first impression is a totally quantified *WOW* this phone has to be at least 15grams lighter than my previous model, and into the smaller lighter package they have managed to cram bluetooth, a decent quality digital camera and a whole host of great features (which I will elaborate on further into this review). I am a student, and as such I am extremely style conscious ...
...so I was rather apprehensive when my insurers informed me that I was getting a gx-15 (I had asked for another tm-100) as it was a phone I knew nothing about and I didnt have a clue what it looked like... ...I need not have worried, the phone is about 4cm smaller than the tm-100 (which had a slide out keypad) and is crafted in beautiful silver plastic - which you really will believe it metal it's so strong and sturdy. Mine came pre-configured for ...

An excellent phone.

Advantages: Reasonably priced phone with the features of an expensive one.
Disadvantages: Short battery life.

Any phone that offers video recording, bluetooth, infrared, and excellent looks for under £80 is well worth serious consideration next time you want to buy a phone. Its candybar design and big, good quality screen make it aesthetically pleasing and this is backed up by a solid range of features that can compete with many more expensive phones. However this phone does have several downsides. The memory is frustratingly small at 1.8mb and only allows ...
...and even fewer if you want to download ringtones or games to your phone. The battery on this phone is also slightly annoying, as it needs recharging regularly if you use your phone a lot. This phone is, to the best of my knowledge, only available on vodafone. This means that you get network coverage almost everywhere in the UK and access to the excellent vodafone live service which is largely free to use and allows you to get news and sport on your ...

Disadvantages: Isn't any really

This phone a small, lightweight stylish phone. It has a good appearance on the outside, on the phone you can take pictures and you can capture a video's on it i especially like the video capture you can have lots of fun with it. Also you can use voice recorder which means you can record people's voices or noises onto your phone. Also vodafone Live is a great way to download load things off the internet or you could just look up todays sport and news ...
...Also on the phone you get a calender which you can put a message no a date and when that day arrives it will come up with the message on your phone so yyou will never forget people's birthday's or impotant dates and you get bluetooth, infared and pc software so you can share your picture, videos and sounds with your friends and family. You get a couple of games on the phone but there not excellent, so you can go on the internet and download some. ...

Advantages: excellent features for the price
Disadvantages: a bit big

The GX15 at first glace seems to be a typical budget phone, however it has a lot of features for a phone in this price range. it is equipped with bluetooth AND infrared which means it can send and receive files from the very lastest and most expensive phones. It has a reasonable camera and you can add photos to your contact list so that when friends phone you see a picture of them on the screen. It also has a voice recorder, calender, alarm, etc ...
...will play real tones as well as polyphonic and mono ringtones, and you can use the java application to play all the latest games. It is easy to navigate around the animated menus and I found this phone simple to use. The only real drawback with this phone is it's size. It's mars bar style design is a little on the large size compared to a lot of modern phones but this is a small price to pay when you consider the features this phone has. If you ...

Advantages: User friendly, light weight
Disadvantages: Cant set fast text as standard within calendar, low memory capacity for photos etc

Sharp is an excellent alternative to Nokia, just as user friendly, with just a few little niggles which will surely be ironed out in the next model. Battery lifetime initially very good, but getting lower with use, in spite of never over charging it. Longer calls drain battery very quickly. Absolutely impossible to transfer data using infra red connection, given up after several minutes! Data memory has a very small capacity - will only hold about ...
...files from other devices with larger capacity transferred via bluetooth. Only other real weaknesses are that you have to turn fast text on every time you go into contacts or calendar, plus that the call duration is not displayed. Only way of telling the call duration is to check call start time instantly after finishing the call. This probably sounds very negative, but it is always easier to list disadvantage than advantages and overall I think it ...

I changed to this phone from a flip phone i find it much easier to use with the menu being very basic and 1 touch of the button. The camera is really good quality takes crackin photos in the dark and close ups. It also has the key pad locked control on it, the flip phones haven't. The phone comes with groovy ring tunes and it also has vodafone live on to download some more.The down side of this phone is the low battery life - only lasts for 2 days ...

A brilliant phone The GX15

Advantages: Bluetooth, Infra red and video capture
Disadvantages: Could have a 1.3 Mega pixel camera.

I have just bought this phone and it is brilliant with all the features of a £300 phone for £99. When i first got it i was a little skeptical but then i got used to it and now i think its brilliant, with bluetooth and infra red send videos and ringtones for free to a friend. The screen is a wonderful quality and is ver clear and quite big for the phones size. This is well worth the £99 and is better then splashing out £300 on a phone with the same ...
