    Lol, No there are no good points about this phone, it is indeed sh**. The only half decent feature it has is an mp3 player, though for a reason beyond me you can only have a certain number of tracks on the playlist at anyone time, which is a load of bulls testicles :P

    Camera is extremely poor, video capture is borderline "ok", but only when outside, the flash resembles that of an extremely cheap torch. It gets stuck on vibrate at least a few times a month, crashes for no reason, has a really poor signal receiver, text messages arent always received properly. The phone should support emoticons' though you can't put any in...

    Basically buying this phone is a BIG mistake.

          No the x3 doesnt have FM. it doesnt even have loudspeaker for when makeing calls which is kinda stupid considering there is a built in loudpeaker for the mp3. yes you can record sounds and set them as a ringtone aswell

                Does this phone have FM radio?
                And can you record sounds?
                I already have found out for myself the picture quality is rubbish, If it doesnt have these it is almost certainly going in the bin.

                  I've just got this phone for cristmas and am extremly worried, there have been so many awful reviews, I tried the camera the other day and to be honest thought it was rubbish, as my old phone {which I am reconsidering using again was the brilliant Nokia 6230, which had a great camera and all the things i needed} whereas this phone hasn't , I feel let down and wish I could take it back. But I suppose it was my fault it did only cost £100 whereas the Nokia cost £179. But I cant help feeling angry.

                    I work for o2 and it seems that this phone is the most common phone to go wrong in almost every way

                          this is the worst phone i have ever had thank god my jail sentance is over with phone as my new upgrade is a D600 (fantastic) the X3 was just perthetic it switches itself off had to been sent in for repairs and after having the phone maybe 6 months the buttons would slowly begin to seize working without having to apply excessive force until basicly all i could was answer a call and even that was a task. its almost like o2 just got a little exiceted when they thought they could put all those featues on one phone and the honest truth is it couldnt cope with it. all in all this phone could have been great but it wasnt.

                          P.S the message tone (need i say more)

                            me and my girlfriend both have had this phone for over a year now and ive had some crap phones over the years but this takes the p**s. It switches off on it's own, gets stuck on vibrate, won't allow some pictures to download, battery life is short, it is just a horrible phone. O2 should be reported to trading standards for this diabolicle mobile phone. I'm going back to my Philips brick from now on, and my girlfriend is just going to bin hers and buy from a proper manufacturer.

                              i am using this fone for abt a year,it is the best phone i have ever used .with 9-10 call daily with some mp3 and camera usage i got 3 days of standby time.
                              it is better than any samsung mobile phone,has the lousdest of mp3 ringtone i have ever heard.faster GPRS etc

                                  I got fed up with phone not working ( kept switching itself off) and returned it 3 times for repair.I had 2 new phones one which was repaired twice. I eventually asked O2 to replace it as I had only had it for 4 months including the time it was away for repair. It took over an hour and a half but i managed to get to speak to someone who cared enough to give me a brand spanking new Nokia. I am so glad that i changed back to Nokia. The X3 was just so rubbish. Its so rubbish they dont sell it now. Stay away from this phone.
