#250? - Overrated!

Advantages: Acknowledge I've overrated, at ease, I use a strong range of scores
Disadvantages: GameFAQS top ten list quality filler - I'm only really doing this for 30CP

...I'm not a fan of top whatever lists, and I loathe the term "overrated" as I find it to be overused (although it springs to mind when I am on sites like this). For my 250th review (or not-really-a-review) however, I decided to compile a top ten list of products that I've reviewed which I felt I have overrated, and contemplated taking a star off the rating. There have been reviews that I've gone back to and changed the rating - these would be next in line, though my laziness means I might never get round to these. 10. Metallica - Ride The Lightning. Production values aside, the second half of this album is average compared to the first - I wouldn't classify Ride The Lightning as a consistent, and thus not a classic, album. **** 9. Valkyrie Profile for PlayStation. More from the dungeons and towns (and maybe even the endings) would not...

Samsung E250

Advantages: Planner
Disadvantages: Memory card needed

...The Samsung E250 is a bit of a let down to my other phone which broke and I have had a lot of phones but the reasons why it is a good phone are shown below along with a few bad points but every phone has bad points this one has an advantage to other phones. The fact that it is a slide phone mean that it is helpful for calls all you have to do is just have slide it up and the call is answered. The phone has good reception, which is good because the majority of phones have poor reception. If you want a phone the better the reception the better the phone actually is. The phones colour is great and has some depth to it. I have owned many phones and this one is the best by far for colour. The phone has a VGA camera which is ok for videos and pictures the effects that the edit section has are brilliant it allows you to add clipart, frames...

RS250 - Best Avoided

Advantages: Good looks, 2 stroke smells
Disadvantages: unreliable, expensive parts - Italian

...I thought I had better share my brief affair of 6 months with a 1995 Aprilia RS250. I am not going to bother going through the specs - you can get that info from numerous websites. When reading reviews it is important to understand what the product is like to live with on a dialy basis and find out what it does well and what it doesn't do so well. so....................... I bought one just for a bit of fun over the summer months - and what a big mistake it was. Riding the RS gives you horns, the handling is phenomenol. It is just so light and flickable that twisty roads are a pleasure. The tyre stick like the provrbial to the shovel and the engine just wants to be revved. The harder you thrash it the more it likes it. It just screams and screams, and....screams. The RS is hard work to ride and requires thrashing. It's lack...

the e250

Advantages: slim good looking filled with features
Disadvantages: not man

...The samsung E250 is a good phone The price has fallen when i bought it it was £55 and now it is 39.99 which annoys me quite a lot the features are good it contains a vga camera , bluethooth , video camera, mp3,micro sd slot and a bright coloured screen in its price range under £50 it is the best phone out there it has stylish looks and is very slim .

Review of Samsung SGH E250

SGH E250

Advantages: Wide Range of features, low price, long battery life
Disadvantages: none that i can think of

...Looks Well as you can see from the photos, this phone is a fairly good looking phone and is minimalistic in its looks which I personally think is a good thing when it comes to electronics. I prefer either the silver or black mobile to the other options which include pink, red and green. The mobile is also very thin and fairly small and easily fits into a pocket. Functions This is a great mobile when it comes down to functionality. There is a diverse range of functions that come with this mobile including bluetooth, a high quality camera with video, MP3 player, an expansion slot for a micro SD memory card up to the size of 2gb. It is also possible to access the internet with this phone and there are also a couple of games with the phone but you can easily download more from the internet onto the phone or the memory...

Decent Samsung E250

Advantages: Bluetooth, Practical, External memory, MP3 capable, Excellent multimedia services.
Disadvantages: Fragile, Shortlife battery, Not 3G capable, complicated menu.

...The Samsung E250 is a great cell phone despite its mentionable flaws and critical points with an overall rating that will suit the need of the mass community and will reach your expectations. First of all, SME250 is based GSM 900 / 1800 / 1900 terminal, a 2G (EDGE, so it's a 2.75G ) unfortunately not a 3G, so you can't make video conference phone call. But, that's a not big loss comparing the big range of features. The clamshell (comes in different colors, black, silver, pink) design is very slick and lovable. A dimension of 99.5 x 49.5 x 14.1 mm, weighing 80g makes the phone very light (you won't feel in your pocket or purse (for the ladies ;)) and very fragile piece of equipment as well. I've heard several complaints about the design regarding the keypad and the screen display, possibility getting damage in short term of usage...

PXC 250 - Good VFM noise-cancelling headphones

Advantages: Great value for money. Excellent at dealing with low frequencies.
Disadvantages: Bulky battery pack. Phone interference may be an issue for some.

...Having bought a portable DVD player for long haul flights, I went looking for a reasonably priced pair of ultra- portable, noise-cancelling headphones to use them with. After a fair bit of research, I settled on the PXC250 and managed to buy a pair from Amazon for slightly less than £50. I opted for free super-saver delivery and they arrived without hassle a couple of days later. The headphones are engineered to so that they fold into a fairly compact shape which fits neatly into the carry case provided. A number of ?phone jacks are also supplied to cater for a variety of inputs. Crucially for me, I could use them with the DVD player, my iPod, in-seat headphone jacks on most airlines and my stereo system at home. The build quality is good for their intended use and price point. The ear pads are very comfortable and, whilst not...

Review of Sennheiser PXC 250

Garmin Nuvi 250 Satnav (/GPS)

Advantages: Touch-screen, USB, Card-slot, Mapsource compatability
Disadvantages: Bad maps, immediate next turn direction, no variable POI proximity,

...Edit: My review here is based on the Nuvi-250 (non-widescreen version). I bought one of these recently as my old ipaq-based TomTom is getting more outdated each day and there doesn't seem to be a reasonably-priced way to update it. I have to say I was expecting better. The manual is small because there aren't as many features as you get with TomTom. For example TomTom allows you to set the distance between your POI and it's alert sounding. This Garmin seems to sound the alert at it's own preset distance warning which you can't change from the menu system. It also seems to take a while to find the satellites. We went to our local park on saturday which is about a mile from home and we were practically on the car-park before it locked on. The worst part though was how innacurate the maps seem to be. On one trip, It didn't have...
