This is the worst phone ever. The screen has a mind of its own. I'll be scrolling and suddenly the app will close and the phone will go into a fit. Buzzing and closing everything because it thinks I've pressed the back button a million times. I'll press the backspace button once then suddenly all my text is gone. It has no storage. Pretty much as soon as I started using it it started complaining about limited storage. The predictive text is terrible. Its slow. Its confusing camera is terrible. It doesn't have a front camera. WORST PHONE EVER!

I bought this phone in April as my last phone (Alcatel OT-665) decided to die, great phone for the price, does all I need in a phone, only problems I have are it could be louder on ringtones and a bit brighter in sunlight, all in all, if you're after a basic smartphone at a cheap price then this is the phone you need.

i only bought it as a backup phone for business and it's total rubbish - font size can't be changed (unless you buy an addon) , missed calls and messages show no apparent indication..(. unless you buy an addon).
I used to test mobile phones and alcatel always were rubbish - years later and its the same... a terrible phone. 'accessibility' doesnt let you change the font size... comical!
I have access to various phones and have to say a Blackberry 9230 without any additional addons at £90-100 is a stuuner compared to this - no addons and it works out of the box..at probably only about £30-40 more
Alcaltel - the A means AVOID

This phone is a really good phone and i really like it.
And im shoked that 1ghz for £50.
i got this phone just because i wanted a fast android phone but a cheap one so thats why i got this.
really good phone for a guy who dosent want to spend a lot of money. I also compared this whith my freinds samsung galaxy ace and ther were a few differences that had suprised me.
I really recomend this phone to you and thank you for reading.

my only weird question is when you save videos to the SD card do you have to save them as 3gp or mp4?

Wow, just picked this up as a spare phone as I don't want to take my nexus 4 out training (swim/bike/run). What a fantastic phone, £50 from tesco (prepay locked to orange). Very responsive, great experience.
Camera is great (for the money, poor if you compare to high end devices). Screen is pretty good also (not sure about direct sunlight yet).
Only down side I've found so far is that there's not much space for apps. Only about 140mb of storage total in the phone (but mine came with 2gb sd). Once Google/Facebook/Twitter/Maps/etc are installed and the junk removed you've only got 37mb to play with!

This little smartphone is amazing. Apart from you need a Google account for many of the apps. Only thing I don't like is the battery life is easy to use up

i am an 11 year old girl who has always been picked on for having a terrible phone. But just yesterday i had the phone of my dreams, the samsung galaxy mini. somehow, i managed to break that phone on the same day i bought it. So now its up to me to save up for a new phone. I saw this one and i fell in love. it is so cheap, and should only take me about a month to get £50. lets hope the price doesnt go up!

This a brilliant little phone,im still finding my way about but cant fault it yet,i have had it for just over a week and it has more than lived up to my expectations.The on board memory is not brill,but i bought a 32gb class 10 sdc card and have loads of room for apps etc.love the fact that its so fast.i would definitely recommend this phone.The cost is very low compared to some other android phones.you cant go wrong.

This is a great phone for the price - let down by not enough on board memory. I would have happily spent another 10 pounds extra just to get at least 500mb of memory. You just can't install many apps because the phone is constantly saying low memory. Even if you root it and move all the apps to the sd card (which I have) it still complains.
Negatives aside, it's a great little phone, fast, well built, and has a decent screen for the price range. If all you want is a phone to make calls etc, this is perfect. But if you like to install lots of apps that do all sorts of things, this phone might struggle...

Archangel, 06 Jan 2013Awesome little phone,hard to beat for the price. Anyone had... moreOMG fantastic phone!! Its ridiculously fast for the price AMD exceptional build quality BUT the headphone and speaker quality is shocking. ..the volume would go from. Quiet to stupidly loud and deafen you with head phones and speaker and with headphones its doesn't give you equalizer or the lefty eighth effect which makes your music sound bad.
