I bought one of these phones for myself as cheap quick buy because suddenly decided to stop working. I bought this phone for £50 which I thought was a bargain.
When I first got the phone out of the box and saw the actual phone for the first time it was a nice size and shape not to big would fit nicely in my pocket. The phone also looked nice with its nice lines and shape. The screen is a nice size as well.
This phone provides all the latest technology like I said earlier so it has a camera that takes photos and video. Music player do your able to listen to your songs and also has an expandable memory slot for more songs, pics and videos. It also has FM radio so you can listen to your favourite radio stations wherever you are just by plugging in the headset as this acts as an antenna. The phone comes with bluetooth so you can use a headset or send and recieve music, pics or videos. It comes with already installed Java based games so you can play these and you have the capabilities of downloading new games. It also comes with all the basic tools like Voice recorder, alarms, calender, memo, world clock, calculator, converter, timer and a stopwatch. It even comes with software that when you take a photo you can take this image and edit. So you can change features add frames and features which is cool. This feature is called image editor.
It comes with wap so you can access the internet whether it be to look at the latest news or to download games, videos etc. Wap does cost though. The phone also allows emails to be sent and recieved with attachments like images and audio. Your not allowed your mobile phone on during a flight so the phone has this feature called offline mode. This is where the phone switches and you can only use the non wireless functions on your phone like music and camera.
You can put music on the phone by using the provided USB cable which syncs withyour computer and enables you to transfer files to your phone quick and efficiently.
The phones menu system is very easy to navigate your way around and it has clear instuctions like back and enter so even the worst technophobe won't get confused. The phone itself is easy to use as well. The sound when you call something is very good and clear. Hear the person your calling perfectly.
The only negative I have with the phone is the battery life is not very good so I need to top it up every day or so.
The E250 is a very reliable phone, I haven't had any problems with mine since I got it. The phone is also quick as well even though Ihave got a 2 gb memory card in mine which is almost full up the music loads really fast and listening to music in a matter of seconds.
