Sharp GX10

The Sharp GX10 is a reasonably good phone for your average person. Although it looks very technically advanced, it is actually of the same standard as would be the Nokia 3210. It's no good for people that want good quality connections, good quality photos or a hard-wearing structure.

I've had my phone about two months, I didn't pay for it, it was a gift so I can't complain about the price although when they first came out I was disgusted. The phone itself is great, not too big, but not too small that you will lose it. As I mentioned the outer case scratches quite easily. The java games, ringtones and WAP are brilliant, and the storage is immense. Unfortunately I can't say the same for amount of SMS it holds... could of been better. The picture ID calling is great but only works if the numbers are stored to the phone, and it has a large capacity for many numbers. It has an easy to navigate menu system, but I struggled to find some of the things as I have been used to Nokias for so long and it was a sudden change. Before this phone I had the Nokia 7250i and I thought the camera on that was amazing. Well this beats it hands down, the camera, picture quality and reaction time on this phone is great. (on the Nokia it had a habit of storing a photo 2 secs later when the person had moved). Overall I think this phone is excellent and would definitely recommend it to anyone.

The Sharp GX10 is my first flip phone. Good quality games camera etc. Compared to some of todays newer phones this was faster and a lot more reliable. The only thing was that the pixels made the screen look slightly blocky but as I said it was one of the first of it's type. I'd definitely reccommend this to someone looking for a fairly low priced phone that will not let them down.

With the exception of it's sleek design, compact features the Sharp GX10 has one major flaw and that is to do with the data cable and modem installation disk and this flaw really needs to be rectified. The problem is that with the new in thing being broadband you cannot get your modem installation disk to recognise that Broadband it is already installed and that your ISP is a Broadband network therefore GX10 does not run to it's full potential or do what it say's on the packet.

If it wasn't for the bad recpetion then this Sharp GX10 would be a good mobile phone. I know a few people with this model and they all say the same.

The Sharp GX10 is pants. but i cant complain. i found it and with 25 squids worth of credit.

i bought this Sharp GX10 mobile phone off my brothers friend for 180.00 and it is the best way i have ever spent my money. the thing i like most about this phone is that you can have mini movies to watch and the picture qualitie is great. it is very stylish and neat, but i am selling it because i like to have the best, i am upgradeing to a nokia n-gage and i cant wait!!!

This phone is great in every way possible,

Colour Screen - 65,000 colours great for picture viewing and for gaming.

Poly Ringtones - 16 chords, not as good as some 40 chord phones, but it still is great.

Games - Three preset non java games, and one preset Java Game with downloadable ones via Vodafone Live! Fast and 3D

Stylsh - The keypad is very stylish and the outside is very futurised looking.

Camera - Cool and brilliant camera, resolution not too good.

Wap + MMS - MMS and wap are very fast and reliable, also very cheap, the gx10 uses GPRS therefore you can stay on for hours and only pay say 30p, depending on what you do.

Plus, can anyone tell me where i can get the plastic cover replaced, it is all scratched and looks ugly. (No one say "e-mail sharp," i have already tried.)

My Nokia 8310 was geting a bit sad and retarded so i sold it for £90 in a mag and was goin for a 7210 then i read sum reviews and ppls said it was rubbish so i got the Sharp GX10. i got this phone about 1month ago and i have been very pleased with it. it does every thing i wanted it to and it looks realy sexy and the camera is so clear! i used my mates sony e t310 and it was soooooooo rubbish! i have got loads of really cool games,pix,and tones on my phone.

Its hard to know where to start, ok well lets get the good points out of the way, loads of thought went into the camera and picture side of the Sharp GX10 Mobile Phone, its a pretty good picture too. Nice and colourful screen and games are fun when in your break at work or whatever BUT:

-The text messaging for those who like to be fast is dreadfully slow you could type and then look back and see youve missed out letters here and there and also when messaging you will ALWAYS press the 'hang up' button by mistake, therefore deleting the whole message and starting from the screensave.

-The ringer and vibration are so quiet and pathetic respectivley that you will miss nine out of ten calls, and the alarm which has to be one of your jingles will only wake you up if you're waiting to here it.

-The organiser is designed for people with no life in the way that 1) you can only set an alarm for TODAY 2) if you put some text in your calendar there is no alarm to go with it, therefore unless you check your calendar everyday you will need a real calendar.

-This problem might be unique to me, maybe i got the duff phone but so many times my messages wont send or my GPRS will fail, on many occasions messages have come through late and sometimes the phone crashes when trying to send/recieve pictures.

-Doesnt have speakerphone! How wrong!

-Very confusing speed dial and picture personalising for calls, you will have to make two copys of someones number in order to speeddial them.

I know how many hundred of good reviews there have been but quite frankly i think those people were paid but sharp to spread some hype about this waste of a pretty phone. Its dreadful and you will regret this, so STOP and buy a Nokia
