NEC e122 - User Reviews

  • I purchased both the USB Cable and CD Disc from NEDIS LIMITED, Saxby Road Industrial Estate, Melton Mowbray, Leics. Tel: 01664484001. Email: [email protected] The program works fine on my HP, XP Computer. I can copy the photographs to my P.C. and print them out.

  • this was the first and worst phone i had after a few months the screen just went blank when it worked it was a quite nice phone

  • nice

  • I purchased this phone in 2007 and it is unfortunate I dit not enjoy the phone. As a new phone I was expecting the battery to last for about 2 hours talk time but the battery was always weak even after several minutes of recharging. I also have a problem with the sreen which has turn dark that one can not see anything on it. I am therefore seeking advice from people with experince on how to solve the problems by writing to [email protected]

  • i have the same question, if you have received the response please do let me know...

  • The WAP of my nec e122 cannot activate .How can l stop the flashing on the keypads which wastes away the battery

  • Ill let you live if you fix my e122. Hows that for a deal?

  • It's an good phone for when it is just needed for SMS Texting and basic phone calls. But for me it only worked well for about one year until in class it randomly turns itself on and dials numbers, and when the they return the call, the ringtone went off causing the phone to be confiscated (Yes, I did have 'Keylock' on). But now I use a Sony Erricson W580i, which works very well for me.

  • The Wife bought me this Phone a while ago, and to be brutily honest it is the worst Mobile phone i have ever had or used, it takes great camera pictures but NEC or whoever have not manufactured a lead of any type to post the pictures to PC etc, to recover the pictures it seems like you have to go to the T-Mobile site and purchase them.I have encountered all the problems that the Guy above has and my own and honest opinion is to stay well clear of this piece of trash that now lays dormant in a black bin liner on a rubbish tip somewhere, goodbye and good riddance to this useless piece of NEC e122 mobile phone crap

  • thus phone u can say its wrong and poeple pliz don't BUY it cause your wasting you money

  • ive got the phone and i think its good but the only thing thats bad is its not got bluetooth the most vital thing for a fone!

  • ive got the phone and i think its good but the only thing thats bad is its not got bluetooth the most vital thing for a fone!

  • I bought mine as a cheap alternative to replacing the battery on my bomb-proof Panasonic. Its looks seduced me, and I accepted the lack of IRDA, prohibitively expensive USB, etc., knowing that the product is aiming to get users sending pics via MMS. I've not noticed battery problems, despite having an old Vodafone SIM from 1999. However, the texting frustrates me - it doesn't have a custom dictionary, so you frequently have to swap between T9 and ABC, involving cycling through all the languages. Perhaps there is a quicker way? Also, I've found that when I make a call and press the End Call button, rather than ending the call, it simply wakes up the backlight, leaving me unaware that I have not ended my call as intended. Was that another cunning piece of design to make us hapless souls spend even more on calls?

  • Great phone but I have a text message from my sister that I can't read and says "failed". Can't delete the message either. Tried switching it off and tried SIM card in another phone but still can't delete it. When I get 1 new message it says I have 2 messages but it's the new message and the failed message. Also have the envelope icon in corner of screen...any suggestions ???

  • every fone goes off when u run out of battery and then comes on when it is about ten minutes charged. but this nec e122 goes off hwen u run out of battery and i bet, you can charge it for a whole 1 week and when you try turning it on it fails. WHY?. NEC company should do something about this fone for it is disgracing the company.Find solutions to our problems.

  • i think this fone is great but its too cheap mine doesn't turn on no more

  • if i have message and want to read it it will display fail. i want to know why ?

  • i would advise people to NOT buy this phone. it only lasted me a month - i dropped it once then the screen blacked out. it is too fragile too last!

  • Gdy, How can l store bluetooth and new ringing tones on my Nec e122. l cant't select by name to call alphabetically. Cud pls send the connection from the phone to computer. Hope to hear from you soonest. Rgards Justice

  • I had this fone for about 2 days and then the screen went wrong. there is now a massive black line across it. DONT BUY IT IT LOOKS NICE BUT ITS TOO CHEAP AND THAT SHOWS

  • I actually own a NEC e122, and despite its stats, is a very good phone. Texting buttons are placed very well, making for speedy and accurate texting. The speed at which texts and calls are sent and recieved is fairly fast. The design allows for easy carrying, for it has a light frame. the design isn't half bad either. The games are pretty cure too ^_^ . I just wsih the screen was a little larger.

  • this is thye worst phone ever, nobody knows anything about it, how does one download anythying here i suggest that the company nec recalls the phone at once

  • Do not by this phone. is peace of .. it's very slow! yes it could save 250sms but then its be slower phone in the world :(

  • DO NOT buy this phone under any circumstances, it's complete rubbish. More so, the retailer is worse with a pathetic returns policy and very rude unhelpful staff who clearly don't know about selling phones, and selling phones not fit for purchase. The camera quality is rubbish, the screen is rubbish, and aftersales care is non existant with no hope of a refund, given a faulty exchange which was on purpose

  • i believe the fon is so beautiful and it needs a lot of care when using it. one must relax when operating it other than that the problems raised by my fellow users will begin.i will advice for the camera size to be expanded so that it records for a very long time atleast an hour. thanx

  • i have had the phone 4 months cant seem to get a refund had no end of problems does this phone have a manufacturers fault. Its not so much the phone its the place you buy it from i have never heard of a refunds policy of 28 days what phone goes wrong in 28 days i have always understood if its under the 1yr warrenty you may be granted a refund its not right anyone had any problems like this? And can anyone tell me has this phone been discontinued? thanks Hanna

  • I saw the phone at computer village in Nigeria, but 2 days after the display screen broke after a gentle drop on the table. It looks beautiful but is very fragile, i think more fragile than an egg

  • What an absolute piece of junk. Don't buy it, even at the low price it costs. No battery life, slow menus, cumbersome keying on a fiddly pad, mine keeps on resetting to defaults, the charger sounds like a kettle boiling and is not a good connection to the phone itself, the WAP is unsightly and unwieldy and the camera is a gimmick rather than a feature.

  • My problem is how 2 remove names from the phone memory. Thanks

  • i just got me a nice and fresh new nec e122 and got immediately disappointed when my phone suddenly went off.1st of all can anybody help me revive my phone 2nd;is nec taking general consumers for a ride????based on the problems i have read theres nothing good....please help me [email protected]

  • my phone has a big blue line through the front screen i only got it at christmas is there a cure for this

Diappointed it didn't have bluetooth and infared? you lucky its got a battery and charger for �30!!! You want PC software? What the hell for?

You paided �30 for It!

  • just got my phone, batterly life does seem a little short, seen a lot of posts complaining about the flashing keypad, to bright at night etc, heres an idea, just turn it over! simple but effective guys

  • Re: Battery Life. I had the same problem with my battery only lasting less than a day. I changed my old SIM card to a 'modern' 3v one (free of charge in a Vodafone shop). After that the battery lasted a couple of days longer. Still not happy I took the handset back to Carphone Warehouse and they replaced the entire handset for me. Since then the battery has lasted for more than a week. I'm now really happy with this phone.

  • i rec. this fon as a gift from a friend and i really liked it. hope it will last long.

  • I've been coming back to this site now and then since christmas and it seems like an awful lot of us (myself included) are having trouble with short lifespan of the battery. To date no-one seems to have the answer (so I've seen, with respect), so if someone could help we would all be extremely grateful. Could someone please also advise if they have gotten their battery to last more than two days - my average lifespan? Many thanks. I am with Orange so is there an option of ringing them re. sim card - could that be a problem for the phone? Sorry, just clutching at straws....

  • Thanks for the info Paul, i was hoping i could do something about it, but hay it stil looks great!!!!!! Thanks

  • The flashing light i to tell you the phone is still on even if the display is off. it cannot be switched off

  • How do I use the USB on my phone

  • I love the phone to the bone but surely I don't have to charge the Battery everyday.Could some one tell me why????

  • My son got me one for Christmas and I can't turn off my constantly flashing key pad! This is driving me crazy. There is nothing about it in the manual & at night the wife goes mad at me, can someone please help??

  • I have a 2 month old e122 and it was purchased on p as you go on T mobile but I have only used it with my orange sim. The problem is although it is fully charged when I turn it on it lights up and the NEC symble comes up and then it goes off (dies). Has anyone any ideas?? please HELP

  • the phone is fine it's just that when i go to do video's how to i get sound on them because when i do them there always silent even when on loud. could anyone help me out?

  • this phone seems ok, but the constant flashing is really irritating and there doesn't seem to be any way to turn it off, does any one know?????

  • Sounds like a software fault to me, take it back to CPW and they will send it off for repaif for you. I will take like 2 weeks, but they can give you a load phone in the mean tiem and it will come back working fine! Even better if you know a CPW with a repair centre you can take it there and they will do it for you within the hour usally, phone before hand to check they techy is in. rich

  • Hiya I bought this phone from CPW in December and I am now having trouble with it. During the last week, it has stopped sending and receiving SMS messages. I phoned Orange who sent me a SIM update. Before I got this, when I tried to access any texts in my Inbox or Outbox, I got the message 'Failed' and I couldn't view any texts. Then after the update it said 'List Empty' briefly, then all my texts were listed again but still with the message Failed. I switched phone off and on for the millionth time and was able to send/receive again, but still can't view previous messages. I tried to delele all messages and it says 'Failed'. Today I got a text from what looked like an Orange services number, but it contained no text. When I tried to delete it, I got the message 'Please Wait' and my screen froze like this for hours.I received a call inbetween, but the screen still displayed the message after the call. Would it work any better with my previous SIM card, which is O2? thanks

  • i think this is a great little phone , but still cant get the mms or wap working on vodafone paymonthly , would be great if anyone can help ! thxs

  • dogie dogie phone .alright for value of money.

  • Ok, but cannot send sms text messages all of a sudden - can anybody help me? Orange don't support it, nec site is not helpful in ANY way whatsoever. PLease feel free to email any ideas, much appreciated...

  • This phone is great! I dont use all the fancy stuff on it so Ive experienced no problems. It was �35 at the end of the day, you want something thats guaranteed to be top notch on everything - go spend �200!

  • When using WAP.......... Can`t put text into the searchboxes? Highlight the searchbox(will be small), press GREEN key, type required text, press green key again- text will now be in enlarged searchbox, move down to highlight go/submit, press green key & off you go.... Does anyone have the phone freeze when turning off?

  • Good phone,after getting it all to work. Video IS image only,NO sound- it records by quickly taking pics so when played back they `move`.

  • iwee gott nec 343i ive got some problems with the camera but itss stilish phone

  • Hi, I had problems with my battery-life until I got my provider (vodafone) to upgrade my SIM card. Since then my batter lasts much longer. Older SIM cards use more battery power on modern phones.

  • hey please can you help me because i need to know how to record/make melodys please please help me email me asap

  • battery is the worst i have ever had..it takes 10hrs and it's empty even when i don't use the phone..

  • Please please please!!! Does anyone know if you can stop the keypad from flashing its blue lights every 5 seconds!!!

  • the fone is so nice i love it to pices but how do u record songs on it!

  • Take a look at this Help page at carphone warehouse - it provides the settings for most networks - otherwise ring O2.

  • this phone is crap or can anyone tell me the settings for o2 as iam unable to send or receive picture messasges

  • So, it seems that you can have either the mms or the wap settings but not both at the same time. I found that Orange customer service was (as usual) unhelpful and so I replaced the 'wap' settings with the mms ones and bob's your uncle, I can recieve and send mms messages! hurrah!

  • i recently bought this phone and my problem is how to download your own melody the steps are not in the booklet please help me.

  • As to the USB cable: I asked NEC and have been told that I can purchase it (in the UK) from a company called Seme. The phone no. is 01664 484092. It'll only work with Windows 2000 and Windows XP PCs, no Mac, no Linux. Pricing is (an outrageous) �18+ incl. VAT and postage and packaging. They don't currently have it in stock, it'll take 10-14 days until they do. Carphone Warehouse got back to me saying they don't have it in stock either and don't know when they will, but when they do they intend to sell it for �30, which is 5p more than I had paid for the phone. Unbelievable.

  • I can't seem to get any more than a day out of the battery - any one got any ideas? otherwise its a *fab* phone for the money!

  • i think this phone is great .the price is great to and i cant fault it.

  • I can't turn off my constantly flashing key pad! This is driving me crazy. It pulses at about 10 second intervals. There is nothing about it in the manual & at night it's like having a cop car in the room with me (unless I put it in a drawer of course) HELP HELP HELP

  • Thanks, I am aware you can send an MMS but that costs money whereas simply copying pictures directly to the PC would be free (except for the one-time payment for the USB cable).

  • Hi with regards to a USB lead - haven't found one, but it is very easy to send your photos etc to PC via MMS, just set it up and it asks you if you want to send it to number or email - simple! But I'm still having problems downloading ringtones, I've got them sitting waiting, but everytime I try to download it says file too big - Please someone help!!!

  • I've got this phone and have been told I could get a USB lead to download photos made with the built-in cam, but I have no idea where to buy this. Anybody here in the know?

  • Bought the NEC e122 before Xmas - I have changed the phone because nobody could hear me but I could hear them, the second phone locks up into SOS call only mode if there is no signal - I have to switch the phone off and switch back on for it to work. I am very sorry I have bought this phone - its unreliable and not user friendly

  • I had the same problem. I left it on charge for five minutes before trying to turn it on and that seemed to work.

  • I am unable to get started.When I turn on the phone it goes to the egg timer, then NEC appears on the screen, then it turns off before allowing me access to any of the features.Help please.

  • With regards to the shortness of battery, I have experienced exactly the same thing with it going from half full to flat in less than 48 hours. Can I ask if you changed the simm card that came with the phone? I use Orange PAYG and wanted to keep my old number so changed simm. My husband has decided to take the phone back because of the shortness of battery so I put the simm back that came with the telephone. Since then the telephone has stayed fully charged, and this is around 36 hours later. Don't know if this is coincidence but if someone could shed some light would be grateful. Also, with new simm card it has come up with a 'G' in a green hexagon on the screen which it didn't have before, does anyone know what this means. TIA.

  • Got my phone just before Xmas. I'm on my second one now. I keep having problems with the battery and/or charger. It is on charger all night and I get out of it max 23hrs. Anyone has the same problem?HELP!!

  • it is marvelous using NEC e122 cell phone. my worry is how to record either music or photograph to install it into "saved" column of the phone. Please would you kindly tell me how to go about that? My wife is also going in for one because of the numerous melodies in the e122. most of the music meet her desire. Thanks for producing NEC e122.

  • i Think this is a class phone for �35. Photo, Video, MMS, WAP, GPRS. Come on what else do you want for �35. But can you please tell me how do you activate my email account so I can send stuff to my phone via email from Pc.

  • hit just go the phone and i think its grat but 1 thing i cnt get sounds oin my video recording and i cnt get pictures on my compouter can you buy usb leads for the phone oh and another thing any1 no how to download games pictures or videos thanks if u can answer any quistion of mine

  • I am also having trouble using the GPRS. I can only get on the orange homepage but then the phone just turns itself off. I cannot retreive any of the photo messages which is really frustrating seeing as this was one of the reasons I bought the phone.

  • You can't get sound on video - just been to CFW and the reps there know nothing much about this phone......I'm still having problems downloading stuff - I pay for it - receive it - but once I go to collect it, the wap doesn't let you "collect" - my settings are correct I know that for sure! I might try calling the number recommeded for software or something - but meantime can anyone tell me if they've successfully downloaded any hip tunes???? This is an ideal smart phone if you like the tones that come with it , but they're a bit naff and could be done with something more exciting. And the other thing - answer to the question about numbers being on the sim or phone - you can either choose to save them to one or the other NOT both, then you just have one listing. Saving them to your sim card keeps your phone memory free for other things.

  • Does anyone know the mms setings on Orange, have had no response after emailing NEC and I'm unable to send or recieve pic. msgs

  • Can anyone tell me how to enable the voicemail please?

  • great litle phone but where can i get accessories to down load pics to my computer

  • I also got this phone for Xmas and have found it to be quite great & funky hence the cheap price, but I can't get any ringtones downloaded. In the settings menu there is melodys but they're not very exciting!! Have tried to download polyphonic tones as it says it accepts it, 3 times and Car phone warehouse have even refunded me as they don't know much about it - that's where the phone was bought......anyone got any ideas?

  • My sister recently got this phone, and I think it's alright, no faults, easy to use, it's features are alright!

  • bought this for xmas had 3 replacements in 6 days for different faults, would'nt text, would'nt stay on and wiped off settings. Bought it from CPW, not very helpful & orange had no info on it either. Nice to look at but not worth the hassle.

  • Got the phone as an Xmas present from TCW with T-Mobile and have had nothing but problems. T-Mobile do not provide technical support for the handset so have been able to do nothing about the issues that I have had. Why TCW are selling it when that is the case, I've not a clue. Their engineers haven't even got one of these phones for reference either!! If you do decide to buy this phone, be aware you could end up wasting a lot of money.
