    Good Points: Sleek good looks

    Bad Points: Counter-intuitive, rubbish camera

    General comments: I bought this because of its fantastic styling, but soon wished I hadn't. It took me ages to get to grips with because it's so counter-intuitive and it has an absolutely pathetic camera. It seems that O2 put lots of time and money into the appearance, but recouped it by cutting corners on the actual functions. Never again will I buy an O2 phone, no matter how good it looks.

    The O2 OX was the worst phone I have EVER owned. I have a Sagem MY 401x on T-Mobile that was half the price of it and that has Bluetooth and all the good stuff. Where as this phone I was tricked into buying because the X1 was being recalled. It wasn't. The camera was slow, the ringtones were terrible, the battery barely lasted and hour, and barely picked up a signal in the city never mind when camping. When you turn it on it makes a funny little noise and after 30 minutes it finds o2 UK. Then yo ...

    Overall, I don't recommend the O2 X2 mobile phone, but for a business man who only uses it for talking, it is a very stylish phone. This phone has a very stylish look to it with a mirror on the front, as well as a front mini display screen. It was easy to use and the instructions supplied sufficient information. The camera quality was awful, as I couldn't even take a picture of someone from one side of a room to the other. Also, there was 1Mb of memory on it, which is quite pathetic. It di ...

    After many years of buying cheap and basic functioning phones, I realised it was merely a false economy , so decided to invest in a mid range phone that not only had the latest up to date features but a bit of style too ! So, after much browsing I decided on the O2 X2. I have always been on O2 pay as you go and as there was an O2 shop just up the road this seemed like an ideal choice as I would also have customer service on my doorstep which would save on any calls to O2 should I experience a ...

    This phone is Rubbish, I only got it because it was about £150 which WAS a good price, but after about a week I found out that the camera was rubbish, it has low memory status and the battery life is v poor. It only lasts about 1 and a half days on standby. Do not get this phone get the E720 or X4.

    Stay away from this phone!! I bought an X1 and had to send it back because the battery kept losing it's charge. They sent me X2 model and that was OK for a few months but I have had to send it back twice in the last 2 months for same thing and now it is starting again. Won't hold battery charge, won't let me access phone book either in contacts or from messages, doesn't send me my messages for days and when I change my sim to another phone get them through OK. This phone might look nice but is t ...

    The O2X2 has a really bad battery life no matter how much you charge it, it only lasts 2 days on standby, and not even half a day if you use it to text or make any calls. I found that the camera quality is extremely poor and so are the features! I also took my phone to America and I thought it was gonna work since it says it's a tri-band phone on the box and I had phoned up the network to let them know that I was going away. The software also kept crashing and I found I had to take out the bett ...

    I bought the O2 X2 2 months ago, and thought the phone was great-good design, I liked the flashing light and outer display. Had decent ringtones, I could download wallpapers. However, Immediately I noticed problems. I was unable to send pictures via MMs. contacted O2 they told me to ring cust. services, however I was not willing to pay 50p/min to be told there was nothing they could do. They then told me there was no way of forwarding my query to their technical team. Then a few weeks later, due ...

    Bought this handset for £120 thinking I'd be pretty happy at the specification and price. Boasting a 65k colour TFT screen with polyphonic ringtones and such alike with most of todays mod-cons. Got it from O2 online and was unpleasantly surprised at the sheer lack of thought gone into producing this handset. The menu hasn't been thought through as the icon selection fades in and you still fail to see which icon you have actually selected. The camera isn't too bad in bright, outdoor c ...

    I had the O2 X1 and well least said about that the better and having read reviews on this handy site I discovered there was a solution and that was the O2 X2. It's a good phone but yet still lacks any amazing features apart from the face morph which has givern my freinds and I hours of fun. It is a good phone for someone who just wants it to make calls, send sms, take photos. Although the camera isn't great it is reasonable and the screen quality is good. The only BUT is the lack of conectivity ...

    Overall the O2 X2 phone is ok. I have just 1 problem, it sometimes decides that it wants to block out the whole world! Which basically means that I can't receive or make phone calls or send or receive texts. It's done this twice in the less than 2 weeks I've had it and I can't take it back cos it was sent to me as a replacement to the O2X1 (which works a bit better than the X2!) I've checked the coverage in my area and there's nothing wrong with it at all. So unless you want to be cut off from ...

    The O2 X2 is a really good phone, but I have had some problems with it. On my second handset already. Overall it is a good phone, but it does need improvements, hence the fact they brought out the X3 only a few months after the X2.

    Really enjoying the O2 X2 phone, real value for money on Pay & Go. Sleek and lightweight design and easy to use though the screen is a bit small.
