Alcatel 511

Advantages: 511 - unsusual Design, durable, reliable
Disadvantages: Poor memory, and no number book

...Alcatel OneTouch 511 Popular model Alcatel One Touch 511 has a good image within the phone market. This phone also has polyphonic capabilities, and hands-free, so it is not all ordinary... at the same time it does not have an in-built phone book, which is a shame for the phone with such reputation. The front covers are made out of special aluminium, which allows the phone to be light in weight and impact-resistant. Highly Competitive with similar models of Panasonic GD75. General o Release date ? march 2001 o eGSM900/GSM1800 o Battery Li-Ion 600 мАч o Standby period up to 280 hours, and o Talk time is up to 6 hours, which shows that the phone is quite durable and reliable so far. o High Contrast Graphical display, and here it comes out ? 4 lines of txt on display if on WAP, 6 lines of text...

Alcatel OT-S319- Good value, simple phone

Advantages: Good value, attractive design, robust, battery life
Disadvantages: texting process, perhaps too basic

...When my mobile inexplicably and frustratingly stopped working a few months ago, I decided to purchase the Alcatel OT-S319 as a budget -buy replacement . The Alcatel phone was one of the cheapest on offer, priced at just £15 in my local argos. The handset is a small, compact and modern looking "clam-shell" design and is available in either pink or black. This is a very basic ohone with only the 'essentials' in terms of features. It provides predictive texting, 2 games, 10 ringtones, a 300 capacity address book and good range of embedded images and animations for wallpaper/screen saver displays. Having used the phone for a while I have found to be easy to use, with good battery talktime (I usually only need to charge it twice a week) and excellent reception. It is also suprisingly robust and the hard outer case shows no signs...

Finally, Alcatel does it right on OT535

Advantages: Large color screen, complete MMS including Voice MMS, loud speakerphone
Disadvantages: Not tri-band, can't send ringtones via IR

...If Alcatel decides to put its mind and effort in creating good quality cellphone products, it can deliver the goods. Proof of these are their latest offerings, the OT535 and OT735. Both have the same look and features except that the latter has an integrated camera. Gone are the user-unfriendly days, I assure you. I decided to buy the OT535 as a replacement to my old but reliable Nokia 8210. I chose this model after carefully comparing and actually trying it with other competitor products in its class: Nokia 3100, Samsung C100 and Siemens M55. I'm not saying that these 3 products are inferior to OT535. It's just that I find this Alcatel phone better fit to my needs. Now to my review. I will not go to the technical details and specifications as you can find them in other sites. I will just tell you the features I like on this phone...

Alcatel 501 WAP phone

Advantages: Conctacts synchronisation, big screen, easy navigation, unique looks
Disadvantages: Build quality, unknown brand in UK (especially for higher end phones)

...Now available directly from Alcatel's web site this phone is fantastic value. Not only does it look great and is quite light, it performs like a much more expensive phone. The five-way joystick right below the screen makes navigating around the many options a doddle. The screen is large and high definition and is superb for viewing WAP sites (yes, I am a fan despite all the detractors) as well as composing text messages. The whole thing oozes character and is ideal for anyone looking for something a little bit different without having to pay through the nose. The ringers are a little mad but fun and you can even record your own short voice memos. To get the best out of the phone though you really have to get the optional PC connectivity kit. OK, so it is a serial connection and thus a bit slow, but you only download your Outlook...

Alcatel One Touch Club;

Advantages: Hands- free facility
Disadvantages: No games

...Alcatel One Touch Club; This phone, brought to you by Alcatel is a great looker and a small, dinky, cute little phone! The functions are reasonable but, of course are no match for standard Nokia phones. The phone has a great hands free function though which is really useful, effective and it means your friends can hear another talk about them!! It's ringtones are reasonable and it's orange baclight display is effective and looks great! This really is one hell of a great phone! Unlike others in the Alcatel range it has distinct curves and shape!...

Review of Alcatel One Touch Club

Excellent, Cheap Little Phone!

Advantages: Nice User Interface/Menu, Lots of Features, Good Sound Quality, Lightweight, Decent battery life.
Disadvantages: Only GPRS internet, Should support more file types

...supported EDGE or UMTS. As for battery life, mine seems to last about 5 days at the most with a few calls, texts and GPRS daily usage. The free downloadable software available for this phone(Alcatel PC Suite), is also quite useful, allowing you to transfer files, text messages and contacts between the PC and phone and also allowing you to use the phone as a modem or web cam. My only disappointments with this phone are that it only supports GPRS, the camera is only 1.3 Megapixel and that it lacks handwriting support and support for more file types. Overall this is a very good phone and if you buy this on Orange, you get earphones and a 1 metre long USB cable bundled within the box. I recommend it to anyone who is going to buy a pay as you go phone for under £50...

Review of Alcatel OT-708

Great for Orange Wednesdays if you can manage to text

Advantages: Cheap, neat, small, clamshell
Disadvantages: Very hard to text with

...WHY BUY THIS PHONE? Alcatel OT-S319 I first came across the cheap little phone when a friend of mine was over from Australia and needed a phone with a UK sim. One way was to get her phone unlocked and then put in a UK sim in her phone or the other solution which she went for was to buy a cheap UK phone with sim included. We looked at Tesco but their cheapest was £19 so I went across the street to the Phones4U and found this cute little phone in either pink or black for £9.95 but you have to buy £10 worth of credit so it comes to £19.95 but of course you need credit anyway to make any use of the phone so it is a great little buy. My friend bought hers and I was so impressed that I decided to buy one too. I wanted mine just to get orange Wednesday cheap tickets for the cinema. I already have a HTC phone through BT that comes with our...

THE smallest prepay WAP

Advantages: smallest prepay WAP, feature packed, speaker phone function
Disadvantages: dark LCD, small characters

...This must be the ultimate prepay WAP phone, usurping the previous title holder the Trium Mars prepay. The Alcatel is even smaller, thinner, shorter, with a stubby aerial, - in the good looks dept it's much more elegant too. Despite being the smaller phone, standby times are better at 165 hours (quoted figures)with talk time around 4.5 hours. The price on Vodafone Smartstep is a penny under 50 GBP making it good value for a WAP phone. The Smartstep tariff is 25p for the first 3 minutes of the the day and any following call time is charged at only 5p per min. This means it suits daytime users more than off peak users, where you would be better off on BT cellnet prepay tariff, or to buy the phone on Vodafone's other tariff 'Allcalls'. The phone is absolutely packed with features. Of course it has WAP, browser version 1.1 which is...

☆ It's worth a review ☆

Advantages: big screen, good performance, joystick
Disadvantages: bi-band, eventually the joystick

...☆ Yes, i know, this phone is a little old, although definitely worth owning in that it has all the major functions (or what i consider to be the major ones). My son bought it on e-Bay for £15 a year ago. At that time we had looked around to see what we could find that was cheap but complete. This one seemed perfect then. ¸.•☆*´¯`*•☆¸.•☆*´¯`*•☆¸.•☆*´¯`*•☆¸.•☆*´¯`*•☆¸.•☆*´¯`*•☆¸.•☆*´ '`*•☆¸.•☆*´¯`*•☆¸.•☆*´¯`*•☆¸.•☆*´¯`*•☆¸.•☆*´¯`*•☆¸.•☆*´¯`*•☆¸ ☆ The Alcatel OT535 first came out in July 2003, it is in fact the same phone as the Alcatel OT 735 but without the camera.

Review of Alcatel One Touch 535

MINES SMALL BUT PERFECTLY FORMED.....

Advantages: Small,stylish,excellent range of features,easy to operate.
Disadvantages: Not many but no games on the actual mobile for those who use them,quite expensive.

...There are so many mobiles on the market nowadays, small ones, flip ones, coloured ones, big ones that when it comes to actually purchasing a new one you are spoilt for choice. My latest purchase is the Alcatel 311 WAP and thought you might like to know all about it so off we go.. The Alcatel 311 WAP is one of the smaller mobiles available today, for exact size etc, check out the specifications at the end of this review.Don't be fooled by the picture it makes it look a lot bigger than it actually is, this phone in fact is very small indeed. So lets get on and find out exactly why I chose this one in particular?? Well I have actually owned an earlier Alcatel mobile and although it was pretty basic in the feature department, it still looked good and was reliable and very easy to use. I then figured that a newer model was...
