...each number by hand which we all know is a pain, the phone comes with a sim card reader which means it is easy to transfer all your numbers from one place to another by the touch of a few simple buttons!!!) Who could ask for more. This phone is stylish and sleek, with its flip opening with auto answer means its ready to go when you are. It also has keypad lockfuntion in case little fingers get hold of it ( we all know what happens then!!!) It also has a 64k LCD colour screen for crystal clear viewing.

Review of BT Zenith FLIP Phone

Flip-ping good phone!

Advantages: easy to use, large screen, fashionable design
Disadvantages: scratches easily, goes through stages of randomly cutting out

...'Timeless classic' and 'designer looks' are a few terms that describe this phone perfectly. It's not only one of the best looking phones out there, but it is extremely simple to use. The phone is retailed at around £100 off-contract and can be found on-contract for reasonable deals with all the main networks. What first attracted me to this particular model was the fact that it is a stylish flip phone. The metallic casing immediately caught my eye and it made me think that the phone would be robust. I also thought that because it was a flip phone, the keys would be locked when the phone is shut and so I wouldn't keep calling the fist person in my phone book. I have found that the phone isn't as robust as I originally thought and the outer casing became scratched after about one month just by carrying it in my handbag. This was...

Review of Motorola RAZR V3i

Basic Phone... with a Flip!

Advantages: Durable, Reliable, Modern Looking, Cool Flip Open Key Pad!
Disadvantages: Slightly dated now, Camera not the best quality!

...fairly trendy, my friend's are constantly impressed by the flip open keypad and my 5 year old cousin is always amazed by it for at least an hour each time she visits! Disadvantages - the buttons are quite deep set into the phone so if you've got long nails (I wish I had!) it's not that easy to always be accurate when using the key pad. As mentioned before the camera isn't that great quality, boundaries and images tend to be a little blurred but that's probably the only problem I could find with this model. So in conclusion would I recommend it? Yes I would! I've not had any problems with it that haven't been caused by myself (dropping it into a puddle in the rain!) and it's been going strong for 11 months now (touch wood). In total the phone has 3.5 Mb of memory on it so that's plenty for anyone whose not looking to open a photo...

Review of Nokia 6822

The Flip Mino Is An Easy To Use And Highly Portable Product.

Advantages: Versatile, ease of use, and nicely priced.
Disadvantages: I haven't come across one yet!

...Hi there! I am the proud owner of a Flip Mino. I have had it for about 6 months now and continue to be amazed by how well it fits in with my daily life. I recieved it as a Christmas present and have used it probably 2 to 3 times a day since. I can personally attest to the fact that this product is a wonderful gift for all ages. Anyone from a five year old to someone upwards of 60 can plug it into the computer with its handy flip out usb connector and follow the easy steps to be editing and posting and emailing movies in minutes. It is perfect for children who are fascinated by everything and who will produce heart warming clips that they and there parents can cherish for years to come, to teens who want to record their bands newest hit or a message to their sweetheart, to adults who can take down notes or record important...

Review of Pure Digital Flip Mino

V3RY good flipping phone!

Advantages: stylish, small, fits in every handbag
Disadvantages: not as robust as other mobiles

...***MOTOROLA*** Motorola was founded in 1928 by Paul Galvin. The first product was a 'battery eliminator' so that people could operate radios from household power rather than batteries. The name Motorola suggests 'sound' in 'motion'. The company has continued to grow and develop keeping up with new trends and inventions. Motorola are always changing and updating their products. I have had three Motorola phones and one negative experience. The V3 however is an amazing little phone and I will tell you a little about it below. ***APPEARANCE*** The first thing I noticed about this phone was how thin it is. I can't stand bulky phones that are impossible to fit in a small pocket. This phone is perfect for me as can pop in my jacket pocket or in my jeans. It does not feel uncomfortable and does not stick into me. Working in a school I...

Review of Motorola V3

Flip out and Flop down

Advantages: Nice concept
Disadvantages: Not tough enough for toddlers

...Thomas and friends flip out sofa My reasons for purchase I bought my son the Thomas pull out sofa when we moved into out home when he was just over a year old. At the time he was Thomas mad and I thought he could have it downstairs as a seat but also as he got older it would work as a fold out bed if any of my friends with young children stayed. Availability I purchased mine from Argos for £19.99 but it is also is available at Amazon for £20.49 and am now £24.99 at Argos. What is it? It is an inflatable sofa that has a removable cover that can be machine washed .It has Thomas and his friends on the cover. Size Height26, Width68, Depth105cm Inflation was easy enough though exhausting as I didn?t have a pump at the time. The sofa folds up like a normal sofa bed although isn?t as sturdy as...

Review of Thomas the Tank Engine Sofa Bed and Flip Out Sofa Ready Room

Nice small sturdy flip phone.

Advantages: Sturdy, hidden outer display
Disadvantages: Autoflip not always useful.

...I got this phone on when extending my o2 contract a few months ago. I just asked for a flip phone that would easily fit in my pocket and that was quick for making calls and sending texts. I managed to get the 6600 fold on a £20 a month contract without having to pay any extra for the phone. Its got the standard mobile bits and bobs that you expect to find nowadays. It also has colour display with 16M colours, 2 MegaPixel camera with flash, MicroSD slot upto 4GB, FM radio. The main ?feature? of this phone that gets shouted about in the advertising is the hidden display in the outside. Two taps on this shows information about missed calls, received texts messages etc and what I like, what time it is. I've always liked flip phones but its been annoying to either loose battery by leaving the time displayed constantly, or opening it just...

Review of Nokia 6600 Fold

Flipping phone!

Advantages: Looks good, feels good and wide range of features
Disadvantages: Battery life and limited memory

...I'd wanted a flip phone ever since I used all my credit after pressing some buttons on my old phone and making calls to people because I'd left the keypad unlocked. I liked the look that having a flip phone gave you. And I wanted to be technologically up to date. I have had previous phones on the O2 network and so wanted to stick with it, making use of bolt-ons and low call rates. The Motorola V547 was one of the few flip phones O2 sold, so I went in store to have a proper look. From the moment I saw this phone I liked it. It looked good but best of all it felt good in my hand, not too big or ridiculously heavy. The brushed steel exterior with a clever Motorola logo surrounded by a smooth dark grey casing impressed me. I also liked the small mirror area next to the camera lens. When I opened the phone the shades of silver and grey...

Review of Motorola V547

  The Versatile Flip Phone

Advantages: Great price, great features, camera of high quality and motion.
Disadvantages: Can only store 10 SMS messages.

...’s problems and now it was a perfect phone for anyone; especially a first-time camera phone buyer. So, I took a risk. A big one at that. I forked out just under £200 (£170 to be precise) for it and must admit I was dreading receiving it in case I had taken too big of a risk. Luckily, it was the right decision to make… ♣ ♣ First Impressions… ♣ ♣ When I received the phone the first thing that sprung to mind was that it was a lot smarter than I’d anticipated it to be. I had seen the Motorola V500/525 and the new Sharp phone (which are both modern camera phones) and both are very heavy in weight and rather brick-like. The flip phone was silver with a very shiny and classy cover and it had a 180-degree rotating camera that was pretty smooth and easy to turn around. It had a small aeriel...

Review of O2 X1

The best iPod / Phone!

Advantages: unbelivably sexy and beautiful, wonderful internet and video / music
Disadvantages: needs a couple of firmware updates to become the perfect phone

...Given the rather briefness of the other iPhone reviews on Ciao, and given I've actually GOT one, I thought I'd do a proper review prior to the iPhone being launched in the UK. Some history: Apple have been making computers since the 1970's and were the first people to launch what we now call a home computer with the Apple II microcomputer in 1977. Since then, they have been at the front of design and innovation, despite having a few failures along the way, such as the Apple Newton in the 1990's. Apple have recently had two turnarounds, the first being the launch of the iMac in 1998 (basically a portable TV size computer with screen, but with funky colours and all in one design) and the other in 2001 when Apple launched the iPod... The rest, as they say, is history! iPhone history: During late 2006, rumours were...
