    3 Stars So many buttons, so where's the games? 07/01/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Cheap, rotating camera, light weight, can watch TV.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Poor picture quality. Lacks a lot of features.

    I bought this phone as a really cheap replacement, as my old phone decided that it had had enough, and I didn't want to spend the earth on a new phone. Been there, done that, and a complete waste of cash. So I was looking on-line at Argos for something else, when I stumbled onto this little phone. The phone was £25 with £30 in credit. It had to be a misprint surely. The network was 3, which I didn't have a problem with as I have been with this company for a few years without problem. So anyway, I reserved it, thinking no way is it going to be in stock, but to my surprise it was. So off I went ... more

    4 Stars 3G On The Cheap 10/11/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Cheap entry level phone for 3G services

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Takes a good deal of getting used to

    Many will be wanting to experience the latest technology, with mobile video calling. Most phones are either expensive or tied into contracts which may not be an option for many. Credit checks or a desire to control spending leave many with little option but to opt for a Pay As You Go phone. This is where the ZTE F866 enters the equation. Offered by the Three service with a Pay As You Pick Up package (you are paid for each text received, and each minute of received talk-time), so long as you keep the phone topped up, the ZTE F866 is the cheapest clamshell phone at a great price of just £9.99 ... more

    4 Stars ZTE - cheap and cheerful! 09/05/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Cheap to buy and does the job

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Texting a nightmare with predictive turned on!!

    The ZTE - cheap and cheerful!! I bought mine off ebay a couple of weeks ago for £30 - as new. There are loads on there, so worth looking as Im not sure this model is readily available in the shops anymore.. Ok, so I bought this phone to replace my contract one. Its very basic but does the job - calls, texts, you can send picture messages and video call (though I have not tried out this feature as yet). The buttons are a really good size for me - and unlike with previous phones I have owned the centre navigation pad is extremely smooth and I can't imagine it ever breaking like I've had in the ... more

    3 Stars Perfectly Fone 20/06/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Cheap, Java and Polyphonic

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Bricky, Tacky, Small Range of Features

    First things first, this phone is not designed to be expensive or flashy! So you say to yourself, what sort of phone am I looking for? One with a camera? One with 3G technology? One which you can watch TV on? One which is cheap? If you answered yes to all these questions, then surprisingly, this phone could be for you... The phone has a good screen size (176x220 pixels) and also has a mini screen on the front for quick display of the time or an alert to a text message or phone call for example. As well as this it is a flip phone which protects the inside screen from getting damaged. Also, with ... more
