Cons:Hard to open flip No power button No Belt clip / holder

Ericsson came out with a new GSM phone that does it all and then some
The phone is one of the latest entries in the Dual Band GSM Line.
Finally the United States is getting some of what Europe and Japan
has had for years a decent phone with a lot of bells and whistles
If you shop around you can get a great deal I paid $60 from Pac Bell
with a 1 year service extension
One of the first things you notice about this phone is its small size
It fits nicely into your pocket and it is hardly bigger than a few credit cards. The battery life is excellent you can get 3 days of standby with
no problem. It takes a while to start to figure out how all of its features work like voice dialing and one touch memory dialing. but they work well after you figure them out.
I took the phone to europe and Asia with me and it switched over to 900 mhz flawlessly . I never lost service and calls were clear and fast
The built in calculator made it easy to figure out Currency conversions on the spot and was very convenient
There are a few draw backs to this phone.
#1 You must push a small button on the side to open the flip. This isn't as easy as it looks. Unless your fingers are positioned just right it wont open which means you cant answer your call
#2 There isn't a separate power button instead it uses the No button for power .If you hold or push the No button a little to long you have
turned off your phone by mistake
#3 Ericsson doesn't supply a belt clip or holster instead you can by a very tacky blue vinyl case that looks like a cheap sun glass holder Grandpa might use (if he was retired and living in Florida)







Recommended: Yes


Amount Paid (US$): 60
