THIS PHONE IS REALLY FUNKY BUT A BIT HARD TO GET USED TO AT FIRST BUT ONCE you GET the HANG OF IT, IT BECOMES REALLY EASY TO USE. ITS REALLY SMALL & YOU CAN FIT IT JUST ABOUT ANYWERE, ALSO IT HAS A MIRROR ON IT SO THIS IS REALLY GOOD, I WOULD SAY THAT THIS IS the BEST PHONE OUT RIGHT NOW!

I can't believe my luck when I saw this phone at a car boot sale last weekend. Asking how much the stall holder wanted for the phone, he replied £1, I pushed my luck & got it for 50p! It works 100% perfectly & will also take any SIM card too!

OK. It has some very light scratches especially around the mirror area & doesn't come with any of the accessories, but remember 50p?

Smarty designed & the MP3 sound quality is superb, but it's absolutely useless for practicality, really it's overpriced (if you buy it from new) gimmicky, fiddly & not user friendly. It's obviously aimed at the 'girly' market, & they're welcome to it!

I bought the Nokia 7380 & within about four weeks gave up & put my SIM card into another phone! Whilst this phone looks gorgeous & comes with some very girly accessories, it is totally impractical for these reasons:

- You can't see the screen at all in the sun so making calls is impossible when out & about.

- Writing texts with the click wheel makes you want to throw your phone into a canal.

- Despite moderate use, the battery lasts for about one day, even on standby.

- Typing in & saving phone numbers takes ages.

- Rubbish camera quality.

The only saving factor is the look, & after you have scratched the mirror which is easily done, it looks rubbish anyway. I've now taken mine back to the store & got £100 for upgrading. Do not buy this! Not worth it at all!

This phone is so gorgeous! I have had it for about 4 months now. All my mates are dead jealous because it looks so pretty. I did find the texting thing kind of annoying at first but now I can generally text as fast as my friends. Two words of warning :

- Be careful when using it outside as when really bright light goes on it it turns into a mirror!

- GUYS, don't BUY THIS PHONE! Unless you want the Mickey taken out of you =P

So it looks good & is really girly. All in all one of the best phones I've ever had!

The look of this phone is fabulous, if you want to stand out from the crowed you couldn't ask for anything more. It is truly beautiful phone that will have your friends gasping in astonishment.

Usability is a bit of an issue however, but if you're an ipod freak like I am it shouldn't be too mystifying!

Hi. I just wanna say that I love this phone to bits! It's so sleek & elegant. At first SMS was a pain now I have really got used to it. Sometimes I miss dialing numbers or messaging but anyway it's so attractive. All my friends thought it was a chocolate bar at first. It's an awesome phone but I still haven't met anyone that has the 7380 because in Egypt people chose to buy phones with very high memory card & don't care about style. Finally, I love this phone to bits & would never change it for anything in the world.

I have bought this phone & had it for a few months now. The phone looks very good, & definitely call people.

Apart from that I love the phone & would change it, as I am now used to it. & would recommend it. However I do agree when the sun is on the screen you have to find some shade to see who's calling you!

I owned the 7280 had seven of them in a year due to the rotating button always messing up once that goes the on/off button goes as well then inside its only connected to the battery through a tiny copper wire which also came out of my last phone worst phone I have ever had in my life so I wouldn't recommend trying this either.

I love this phone! This is my second of this sort as I had the 7280, but contract ran out on it so upgraded to this one! I love it, it certainly isn't for the lads, but they do seem to think it's cool. I must admit though that the battery life does not last very long at all. & as for the whole texting thing, yeah it does take a while, but if you give it a little while you do get used to it, I can text now just as fast as an of my mates that have buttons on there phone. I cannot put this phone down at all because I love it, but it is dead girly! I love it!

I don't actually hav this phone but I no sum1 hu does. It looks very flashy & every1 thinks it is v. Cool but takes AGES to text & stuff. It is a good phone just for calling & has a good camera. My advice. Don't buy it, try the 7373.

This phone is ok!

Yes I agree, looks great, good size & the features, camera with flash etc are great BUT it does take forever to text. Also the mirror may look flash but believe me it makes your phone useless in the summer months as you cannot see the screen!

After researching this phone before buying it, I had read that it's really hard to text with. I ignored this advice & went ahead with it. I've owned it for 2 weeks now & I love this phone to bits, its attractive, girly, & draws so much attention. But unfortunately the rumors were true, I don't text an awful lot, & it pains me to put this phone down, but the usability is soooooooooooooooooooooo poor, looks are amazing, but it depends on what you're going for, looks or usability. The worst thing about this phone is using it outside. If the slightest bit of daylight hits the screen then it changes into a mirror so the screen isn't visible!!!! I'm sooooooooooooooooo sad to be putting this phone down because it is stunning, but I'll be taking it back tomorrow because it's simply not practical :(

So overall, you'll love it when you first get it, but within a few weeks you'll be gutted as it's really quite irritating to use. Sorry!

With this phone in your hand you will find it hard to leave it alone as it has so many features & can keep you amused for hours. Not for the boys but the girls will go crazy for this, if only just to say they have one. A real fashion accessory & it truly looks different to the rest.

It's a phone & nothing else. If you want a computer, buy one, if you want a camera, buy one. Don't know what all the hype is about.

This comes with a sensual feeling due to the leather materials complemented with metal surfaces. It's a very tactile phone & has that feel of elegance. Easy to glide through all the different levels & menus which makes it very nice & easy to use.
