This phone is brilliant.
Right from the off, it will satisfy your needs from a phone and constantly surprise you with nice features.
Lets start with the fun. You get two games.."only two", I hear you moan...oh but what 2 games to choose, Solitare (patience to some of you) and tetris. These two games are addictive and you will wonder what you ever did on those long bus journeys home.
It has voice activated dialing, which you may say you won't use, but wait. If you record the key you will use for the voice dailing, when that number rings you it plays it to tell you who is ringing you before it begins the ring tone. How impressed will your friends be when they here "Dave's Mobile" before the phone even starts ringing. There is of course a veritable feast of ring tones, not to mention some slots to record you own in. there are a million and one web sites online to get them from. Try www.mobilemelodies.com if you want to change you mundane tones.
The phone of course has a vibrate option which is essential for those quiet moments, which canbe switched on and off at the touch of one button. The phone also features a light which changes colour to show when it is low on battery, and which shows when it is charging.
You want more...you got it. It can personal ring tones so that when certain people ring a different ring tone is played. This can be a specific number of even just a dialing code, so anyone from a certain area of the country, or on a mobile can have a different tone.
There is of course a clock, and an alarm, not to mention a stop watch.
Certainly on Orange the information service is brilliant too. You can go through a number of categories to find the info you want, then withing 1 or 2 seconds it arrives at your phone. Brilliant!
The phone i brimming with shortcuts to make your life easier too.
Ok, so what is wrong with this phone? Answer- not a lot. It would be nice to be able to look at a list of calls received on its own at the touch of a button rather than either having to go through the menus or use the list combined with calls made as well. the phone also lacks a calendar, but most wont mind. It also slows down a little when the memory starts to fill up with hose addresses. It also seems strange and a little annoying that the light doesn't change when a call is received.
Anyway, as you can see from the huge list of features, and the tiny, and petty list of negatives, this is a fine fine phone. I paid £90 for mine a long time ago and that was a bargain, you can get it for much less than that in the high street, and even free online.
If you want more information the ericsson web site even has an interactive phone you can look at all the features on. Buy it!
