Definately avoid this phone! I have had it over a year I got it as an upgrade from 02 and its the worst phone I have ever had! After about a month it started freezing up so I couldn't receive texts, couldn't see missed calls or who had called me. The only way i could unfreeze it would be to put my partners sim in the phone, although it unfroze it, it copied everything from his sim onto mine so I then had to spend ages deleteing stuff! Battery life is also bad I have to do a full recharge everyday! This has put me off ever buying another 02 phone although i still prefer the network to any other.

I have had my O2 X2 for over 1year and a half, i personally have found no problems with it and i havnt had to take it back, unfortunatlly i accidentally smashed the outer display screen and have painted the whole phone 4 times, its now painted black with yellow keys. I need my phone to break for me to get a new 1 this christmas! I wish i had same problems as you lot.

i have this phone and its rubbish. it does look nice, the mirrors handy, n the amount of texts it holds is quite impressive. but the battery lasts for about 10 hours even if i charge it over the whole night it will run out by the next night definatly.

it doesnt let me open images that have been sent to me by multimedia which has wasted the other persons credit and doesnt seem to let me send them either.

the amount of photos it holds is not much. u have to keep deleting them and the quaLITY of them is rubbish anyway.

the ringtones are most embarrasing and u cnt download any new ones so your stuck with a iratating song that sounds like it should be played at a jewish wedding.

DO NOT buy this phone...ever

Ok, I got this phone last christmas, first it wouldn't turn on.. now it takes 5 mins to turn on. The screen is tiny, does not hold many images, the camera isn't that good and for some wierd reason it never sends images to other phones. (it sucks, £150 for a piece of crap.

i got this phone last christmas and already had an o2 phone so i put the sim card from my old phone in. after about 3 months the phone was strange and everytime i turned it on my contacts wouldnt come up so i decided 2 put the sim card i got with the phone in. since then its been a lot better. there isnt much space for photos and the screen isnt very big but they are good quality photos. it has a composer, but i cant find any codes for it anywhere so its really no use unless u know how 2 make ur own ringtones. but it is very nice lookin and the front part is a mirror although on mine it has gotten very grubby, dirty and scratched. i am gettin a pink samsung e350 for christmas as i just wanted a change and also i wanted to be able 2 record videos which u cant do on the o2x2

Hi, I have had this phone since xmas. I do like it, I think it is a practical size and also looks smart. The mirror can come in very handy! The thing is, is that it doesn't have much memory and i annot store as many pictures and texts as i would like. I recently got a new SIM card. My phone now takes a lifetime to get onto contacts and i can't send a text unless i know the number off by heart which is rather annoying. Thankyou, Naomi. X

I got this phone last January, and at the beginning I found it ok to use, no major problems. This phone looks very nice, and for £120 you would expect a decent phone.

However, I would like to share with you all the problems I have had with this BLOODY phone:

1)The phone freezes when about to receive a text so you have to stop what you are doing, be it writing a text, setting alarm whatever, until the text comes.

2)The memory is small, so when your message boxes are full (which comes as a complete surprise, at least it did to me, after reading in the manual it can store 400 texts), you have to delete messages or else you are constantly displayed with an annoying message 'memory full please delete messages' whenever you go to the main screen.

3)When the memory is full the phone is very very slow.

4)Deleting messages takes a liftime.

5)As a result of number 3 above, my thumb seriously HURTS after writing a single text, I think the ergonomics of the phone must be rubbish because it really does not feel comfortable to text.

6)When texting, you are not notified of when you are running into more than one text, and so can end up spending A LOT unexpectedly. One text message costing 10p does not allow for much, it really is rubbish. At one point I actually spent about £1 on a text because I had no idea how much it was costing me.

7)The whole phone reception seems to freeze so that you cannot receive texts or calls, and what's worse, you don't realise until you try sending a text yourself. This has caused quite an upset with people not being able to contact me for long periods of time in the past. You then have no choice but to turn the phone off and on again.

8)I used the internet on the phone for a few months after buying it, not having to pay at all. Then suddenly one day it started charged me, unbeknownst to me. It seems they really are into money-grabbing.

9)The battery has started to run out very quickly, I am finding I need to charge it almost every night now. It runs out at the most inconvenient times.

10) You cannot see the screen in bright daylight, and so you end up looking a complete idiot shielding your hands around the phone, squinting into the screen, running into the shade, all sorts, just to see what you are doing. Awful.

All in all, I think it's pretty obvious to see I am hating this phone, and needless to say, I am getting a new one this Christmas. If you have any sense, do not buy this phone.

I've had this phone for about a year and a half and I love it!! It's looks brilliant, outside and in. Does have quite a smalll memory for photos but people could have found that out before they bought it! Just buy a real camera if you are worried about the quality. Great value for money and a brilliant all round phone!!

god some people are so whiny!! i agree that the quality of the camera is average and I have had problems with the battery, but it's true, at only £100 did anyone honestly think before they bought the phone that the quality of the camera would be great? come on people, you get what you pay for!

Good lord, everyone who has posted an opinion sounds like a whining child unhappy with a christmas present. Personally I've had no technical difficulties with the phone, if I wanted a high quality camera, I would buy a camera. However, considering what I purchased was a phone I found it more than satisfactory.
