  • I've got the same phone as the model it shows and I got 2 say not the best phone I would have the design is good and the features are somewhere near good but the performance not good at all let say everytime I but it on I have 2 wait for about 5 mins for it to load totally. If I can ask my nan nicely to get me a new phone the Alcatel OT-E230 is not a good phone 2 have when your in the last year of Secondary school.

  • I've just been given a white OT-E230 for my birthday, how rare are these? I was bought at Asda for �10

  • yeah! if you put the volume on the highest it's really loud!!!!!!!!

  • how doez tis fone campare to the ifone i have one but it does not flip . what is the sound functionality of the internal diamatrix dilation infuser ? it seems much smoother ... the iphone had trouble going in ... surprisingly smooth coming out tho .

  • Sorry to hear it got stolen Sandra ;)!

  • hey, does this phone have loud ringtones? i want to know cause sometimes phones have low sound:)

  • I brought this phone during an upgrade & ended up keeping it however broke my heart when it got stolen!!!! Its excellent for receiving and making the odd call and playing the games in waiting rooms. Conclusion: an excellent 2nd phone and cheap too!!!

  • Bought this phone. The battery didn't live for 3months and died :(

  • Hi, I have this phone and, I think that its really good if you use it only to answer or dail ;) and the color is perfect,thats what I like the most, espesially with these lights. I bought it cheap. You won't loose anything if you buy it.

  • Hi pls can u tell moi if dis a gd fone!!!!!!

  • I bought this phone today but i'm having some trouble with startng it up. in the manual it said that when i'm charging it an animation will come onto the screen, it also says i should charge it for 3 hours. i've charged it for over three hours and my screen has only lit up and nothing has appeared on the screen. can anyone help me please?

  • Hi i bought this mobile phone Monday and the only downside about this phone is when somebody sends you a very long text message it will only let you read half of the text message,i thought the message would at least come through as two seperate text messages like the old brick phones, it is abit frustrating when your not sure what the other persons text you.

  • I'm not sure because i had problems setting it up oh well if mine ain't got a camera

  • great phone bought 1 yesterday to start it up u have 2 ring the orange no and they get u started

  • hi my daughter is 9 and im thinking of getting her this phone she has seen it in orange shop only in pink some one told me not so long back asda did them white with pink flowers on any one know website to get one like that

  • I went into the Orange Shop walsall recently and spoke to Ian now Ian must be Orange Shops biggest Giggle boy and likes to be very helpful giggling all the way. He showed me this phone in white and said it was lovely and he owned one himself much better than sony ericsson he said. Funny enough he has even got a nice rainbow ribbon round his neck with the phone attached very fetching. Must be a good buy (or is he just a good giggler).

  • just bought this fone and it coming no network!! any one know i i fix it please

  • i love this phone, its very basic which is great. only one annoying thing i can think about it. ive set the ringtone to the max volume which is good but when i recieve texts the tone is veruy very quiet, does any1 know how to change the volume for sms alerts? if so, please get back to me

  • Hi, I've just bought one of these basic phones for �10 at Asda. I think they are great value if you just want the basics, and yes my existing Orange sim works in it.

  • I want to buy this phone from Argos but before I do, does anyone know if you can remove the Orange sim card and replace it with another? I only ask because some phones have a network sim card glued in (Virgin did that) and they cant be removed.

  • my network doesnt work but a great phone what shall i do?? britoni

  • Yes it does light up at the front like the Samsung Lily! More bout dis fone @ www.tcl-ta.com

  • Did you no that this fone is �9.99 in argos?

  • Hi! No, not all fones have the pattern on the keypad! :)

  • I had a Nokia 6111 - that slidey one. IT BROKE. I had it on contract. So i brought the cheapest 'girley' phone on PAYG to stick my contract sim card. Really looking forward to recieveing it!Do the all have the pattern on the inside buttons??? Thats what I really want!

  • PWBR Maybe you have not registered your sim card with your phone network as on Orange UK Network if your card is not registered with them and you have not had the sim updates from them then text message option does not show. Otherwise im not sure.

  • the user manual is on orange uk website if anyone cant find it .

  • Does anyone know if the outer front part of this phone lights up to show someone is calling in a similar fashion to the Samsung Lily. There is very little on the net about the phone. Thanks.

  • elo does any one no how to text on this phone i brought this phone yesterday and it wont let me send my text i have 10 pounds credit on it but it just dosnt give me the option to send .please help

  • this fone is basic there no java games or ringtones . you will have to keep the ones built in . theres no way to add games wallpapers ringtones /mp3 ringers to this phone . thats why its ony �9.99 . really its only made for basic calling and texting . have fun .

  • Just bought the phone for my son, for use in an emergency! Does anyone know where to go to download games/ringtones for this particular phone? Help would be gratefully received. Cheers!

  • theres no outside display ? the ringers are no good . oh well for ten ponds on orange what do you expect .

  • I bought this phone yesterday and I think it's great,it does all that I want it do,it phones & texts.Ok so it has no camera or video and it probably won't be the latest fashion accessory for teenagers but I bought a PHONE not a multimedia player!!! Lets be honest at �9.99 you can't moan really.

  • I had a Nokia 6280 & hardly used any functions & it was too big; this is perfect, looks elegant, fulfills the purposes of being a telephone fine! Decent keypad, entertaining flashing lights, nice to hold, if all u want is a basic phone, it's great. No camera, butI have a digital camera why would I want to take photos on a phone?

  • YEAAAAAAAAAAAH im the first one look like an ugly phone..*sigh*
