General Comments

All I can say is that the NEC E313 is the worst phone that I have ever had, as many have already said the battery power is a bit on the pathetic side, I mean who wants to have to sit and charge their phone every day. Also the screen display is great (if you work in total darkness) however if there is so much as even a hint that the sun might come out forget it you ain't gonna see nothing. As for the fact if you want to do anything with the pictures that you have taken on the phone you then have to spend another £25 on the USB lead and software. Also the fact that you loose any credit on your phone that you haven't used after the month is up those greedy people at 3 take it off you, they took 40 texts off me. I also had 25 minutes left on the last day so I just phoned my other mobile up and left it connected till they ran out, nice little tip for ya! I have now put no credit on the phone for the past 2 months now and don't intend to ever put any on again. I have now gone out and bought a decent phone and won't be touching another 3 phone as long as I'm vertical.

    You're damn right! Just don't get one of these phones. In the first month that I toped it up, you got 100 minutes for £15 pounds, when I toped up the second time a month later, I noticed there were only 50 minutes of credit on it. I rang up the customer service line, which I think is in India, and was cut off twice in a row and later put on hold for 5 minutes! They then told me they had changed the deal, now I have to spend more on toping up. Plus everyone rips the mickey out out of it if you get it out in the pub 'cause it looks like a TV remote!

    Now got the LG8120 from 3 on contract and I highly recommend it, it's everything that the e313 isn't. And for £15 per month you get 500 minutes and 100 text messages and your first months content is free. Looks like they finally got it right..
