O2 X2 Review
Phone rating: 
Review: January 2005. Updated April 2005.
The O2 X2 is exclusive to O2 and is an enhancement of the popular O2 X1 camera
phone. For the price, the features are poor compared with similarly priced camera
phones such as the Motorola V300 or Samsung
E600. In particular the phone has limited memory, poor battery life and
a small display. The phone has also inherited many of the reliability problems
of the X1, making it a poor choice.
Features of the O2 X2 include:
- Integrated VGA digital camera (640 x 480 pixels)
- Dual display with 65,000 colour 128 x 128 pixel internal display and OLED
outer display
- Multimedia messaging
- 24-voice polyphonic ringtones
- Java games
- Predictive text with ability to add words to the T9 Text Input database
- Vibration alert
- WAP, GPRS
- Triband
- Memory: 1 Mbyte
- Connectivity: USB
- Size: 81 x 44 x 21mm
- Weight: 89g
- Talktime: Up to 3.5 hours
- Battery standby: Up to 170 hours

I have to agree with mitch from scotland this phone really is rubbish.
Even though it can hold many texts i have to keep turning it on and
off to receive all my texts and sumtimes i have to reboot it by taking
out the battery. Ive also had a problem with my fone suddenly making
alarming sounds and the screen going completely white and there is a
yellow line across the outer display. Can anyone help what this is??
Basically this fone is not good

This phone is brilliant, the camera is gd quality if you actually use
your common sense n switch it to eitha outdoor, indoor or night mode!
It stores lots of txt msgs and the colour screen is really gd, i particularly
like the outer displays you can have. You have quite a few txt/ring
tones to choose from and if you dnt lyk um jus buy your own, not the
end of the world! The games are gd and finally if you actually look
after your fne, it won't get scratched! It ain't hard to take care of

Although i have only had this fone for 2 weeks (O2,x2) it seems pretty
good. The camera is quite clear although it does take a while to take
a photo and so far i have 20 pics on it and i can still take more. The
battery only lasts 3 days if your lucky and the display is pretty small.
I have not had any scratches on dis fone yet but have noticed that the
outer display and the internal one gets very greasy easily. Overall
this fone is good for the money but i would spend more if you wants
a decent one.

I bought this phone when it first came out in august 2004. I only bought
it because i needed a triband to work in cyprus and it looked quite
smart at the time. Little did i know i was making the biggest mistake
of my life. It worked fine up until xmas 2004, Then came the problems.
Screen freezing, wouldnt register with network, even though i live literally
1mile away from an O2 mast. I couldnt get in my phone book or anything,
the basic software was a pile of poo. I was happy for it to go back
for repair, until i learnt that one of my collegues has had this fone
replaced twice, and still fixed a whopping 5 times. O2 are now offering
me a replacement X2 which im not happy with. Ill happilly pay extra
to upgrade to the X3. This fone should never of been marketed as O2
no-doubtedly knew the problems with the handset. I would warn everyone
and anyone, DO NOT BUY THE 02 X2!!!

I bought the X2 for £69 ( using a £10 voucher in Comet)to
upgrade from the X1. I had been reasonably pleased with it and the features
worked well on it so assumed the X2 would have improved features. However
I have to agree the the two things that annoy me most are the poor camera
quality - my X1 took great quality pictures and you could adjust it-
and the poor battery life especially as I use my phone as an alarm and
reminder each working day. From the reviews I think many of us have
a phone with poor camera quality and others have been lucky to get one
that works as it should. I find it impossible to take a photo without
bending my head to an unusual angle and it is always blurry ( I did
remove the sticker)! I was going to give the X1 to my son but have kept
it until I decide whether to bin the X2! Also prefered the X1 address
book which kept all one person's numbers under their name as I took
ages to rename the numbers once I swapped them to the X2 by sim.

Reviewed by I hate PHONES4U and O2 and the X2 from England
on 17th Feb 2005
I have always been with orange ( for 7 years) but as my girlfriend was
on O2 i decided to change (big mistake). I went to phones4u and was
advised that the X2 was a great phone with good camera. I expressed
my concerns after hearing about all the problems with the X1 but was
assured all that was sorted out. I went ahead with the purchase and
was made up for a month. then the problems started. I cant always get
my conact list up so I cant always see missed calls or dialled numbers
etc so I have to take the battery off and reboot the phone. Sometimes
I have 4 bars but cant connect to the O2 network because the coverage
is rubbish. The camera doesn't work anymore at all. The phone memory
is rubbish. With one press on the keypad about 3 different numbers appear
(very annoying when trying to txt or dial), predictive txt is pointless
on this phone. God I can go on and on. Phones4u have basically told
me to get lost after having my phone repaired a few times, O2 have tried
to tell me there isn't a problem with the range (do a little) searching
on the internet and you will see the problems. Therefore I am £120
down and a phone that I couldn't give away. please please please whatever
you do don't buy any of the X range from O2, i.e. X1, X2, X3 or X4.
if you are going to go with O2 make sure the coverage is good and remember
there are better networks who will price match and deal speak to them
first. but the most important, DONT EVER BUY FROM PHONES4U once they
have sold you the phone they dont want to know. It will cause great
stress and anguish if you do. THEY ARE THE WORST COMPANY EVER. Thanks.
Adam.

When I got this phone I thought it was amazing, it is still definitely
the best lookng phone out there. however, the screen is amazingly small.
Every time I put a new contact in it made me put a voice tag on, but
there is no way of using voice tags to dial numbers. The camera is poor
quality, and no video recoring or playback is a serious downside. There
is no Bluetooth or Infrared. It is a tiny phone so it can fit into all
kinds of places including between your car keys so it severel scratches
and dents the lovely shiny external screen. I paid £150 for this
phone, and I will never buy an O2 phone again (although they have the
best tariffs for texters by far). It does look nice, but that's about
all there is going for it!

Awful phone, awful features, awful camera, awful everything! You have
to tilt the phone towards you when taking a stand up picture and you
cant see the image without bending down! The O2X1 had a decent swivel
camera so why didn't they keep it on the 'O2????? AND, they did't keep
with the small video feature either?!? The screen is too small, no speed
dial, pathetic memory, The only credible thing about the phone is it
looks quite stylish, but when u start 2 use it its a different story.
Fortunatley i got this phone free on an upgrade so i really feel for
anyone who parted with cash for it. My next upgrade is due soon and
i cant wait to bin this one.

I'm nearly 19 now, and for the past 6 years or so, mobiles have been
really taking off. I vowed all them years back that I would never buy
one because of their uselessness and that they were quickly rendered
obsolete by the next model up. Well I stuck to my word until now because
it is really more convenient to carry a mobile for arranging things,
I mean a whole day would be spoilt at times because I was for example
around the corner of the cinema, while my friends were about 5 metres
away and we couldn't find each other! So now I see all these 8 year
old chav's hanging out with them, and seeing as mass market mobiles
were around before they were even born, I thought I couldn't be left
out in the cold any longer, plus the fact I got a job in a mobile phone
shop! So now on with the phone. I find this phone excellent in every
possible aspect, the style, the quality, the ease of use. I can't really
go into every detail for now because I think those type of things are
really best looked at at first hand. Believe me, if you get this phone,
and especially as an entry level phone, it will definitely impress.
Do not listen to the people on this page, seriously, would you tell
me now that you would take advice from individuals (and there are so
many of them here) that can't even spell many words right, cannot write
in continuous prose, and decline to even spell the device's name correctly?
(fone, anyone?). They seem to complain about the quality of the camera,
well sure that would be valid 100% to complain about...if this were
a digital camera we are reviewing. People, it doesn't take a genius
to work out that this is a phone (it's quite self explanatory, really).
I use this phone as a phone, to phone people, not to take pictures of
them, surf the internet, or use it as some sort of MP3 player, that
is what you buy individual devices for. So all in all, this is an excellent
phone, it's quite cheap these days compared to before and definitely
holds up against the others on the market. The only fault I can say
is that it isn't exactly up there with the £200+ models, but nobody
said it was. Excellent.

Excellent for the value !! I must say the camera quality is as per the

the way who will give you a exceptional quality camera in low cost ?
The piece I have is good one plus I liked it more then my Motorola E398
to be frank bcoz of the beauty of the handset and the fantastic quality
of Ringtone. eventhough there is no MP3 player but the polyphonic ringtones
sounds better in o2 x2 loud & clear enough. I particularly liked the
polyphonic ringtone composer very easy to make high quality polyphonic
ringtones in minutes. But I didnt liked the Interface it sucks. and
settings are complicated. could have improved the battery life. I would
recommend this phone to anyone who wants a normal quality phone for
such a low price. use the phone to see the quality instead of just reading
some bad reviews and spreading rumours that o2 x2 sucks. but the truth
is its the Best phone available for the given price range !!

Well, what can I say about this phone? At first, I though tit was money
very well spent, only £150, and you got the features of a £200+ phone.
Whats more, it looks very cool, and is very small, so is a handy pocket
size. Then the problems started. Firstly, who decided where the camera
was going to be placed? Whoever did deserves the sack because they couldn't
have found a more inconvinient place to put it - right where your hand
goes when holding it. Also, the battery life is absolutely terrible
- only 2 days out of a full charge. And the memory size is also poor
- you constantly find yourself deleting things to make room for new
pictures or games. Now, I have had this phone for 3 months now, and
here is the most infuriating fault with the phone. It has suddenly stopped
letting me access my phonebook, and call history. This means that, unless
you know everybody's number off-by-heart, the phone is now useless for
making calls or sending text messages because you cannot access the
phonebook to select who you want to send a text to, or ring. This fault
happened a month ago now, and all it took was a few re-adjustments of
the SIM card, and it worked agian. Now, though, it isn't making any
difference. I have now decided enough is enough, and I am taking back
to the shop I bought it from (Comet). Unfortunatly, they still sell
this phone, and when taking the phone back, I was told I couldn't change
it for a different phone, just a new 02-X2, which isn't what I wanted
because it is such a dire phone, and I am now stuck with it unless I
pay out another £200 to buy a new phone. So, to sum up this phone: poor
quality camera. tiny memory. very short battery life. shoddy build quality.
NOBODY BUY THIS PHONE - IT WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE

This fone is amazing. It really is! There are many people who say that
hte camera is rubbish but it isnt. When you get the phone there is a
sticker on the camera - take that off and the camera is much better.
Also if you are taking a picture in night select 'night vision' and
it really does help - there are lots of different choices like indoor
and outdoor to fit into where you are. The screen is colour and you
can save lots of pictures. You can set a picture as a wallpaper and
set it to a contact so that when they ring their pic comes on! the camera
is only one thing good about the phone but if your looking for a flip,
colour screen, camera phone that is under £100 then get this fone.
It is outstandingly good value

This phone is abysmal. The camera was at first blurry and now after

way to get it back on is to remove battery and restart. Battery life
is barely a day and if you use WAP it runs it right down. I even bought
a new battery as I thought it might have been my fault for not charging
properly he first time but it's no better. Ringtones, screen etc are
fine but if the basics don't work whats the point. On a plus side it

is wiv dat game, mobimon. the onli thing that made me buy it was the
shell and the fact it was flip and small. the 02x3 sounds so mch better
for jst £40+ more as it has video better camera and a mp3 player.I
wud advise ani1 to stay right away from dis fone x x x x x x

This phone is fantastic it is a great we phone which just fits into
your pocket. It has a jazzy blue external screen which displays the
time and a lovely blue light that blinks to warn you of the battery.
When you open the lid the display lights all blue really nice if you
are in the dark. There are hundreds of games that can be downloaded
onto the phone, pictures, wallpapers, and you can get tv guides and
entertaiment to your phone from you tv listings and if your going any
where why not download the map to show your favourite routes to your
favourite sites. A handy calander to plan your lastest events and even
a voice memo which you can use to record your voice or record music.
Download brillant ringtones as well. A brillant 65.000 colour screen
and all. This is well worth the money. And if you really need help you
can even do your sums for help with your maths homework. And if you
need to go to an interview you can use the mirror on the front to make
sure your teeth are sp arkling. Buy this phone its fantastic and worth
every penny.

i think this phone is a load of cheap rubbish. I would not recoment
this phone to anyone.Even thought it has a really nice shell with the
mirror on the front it will scratch and chip and dint so easially (i
have had this phone 6 mounths and it is scratched up so bad).The camera
is blurry and does not take a good picture AT ALL. It hasnt got alot
of memory space. My phne is broke now because nothing comes up on the
screen i went back into the shop i brought it frm and said "no-one would
tootch it beacause the o2 manurfacture who make the phone isnt from
this county so no-on has any parts for it. You might aswell get another
phone for the price you have to pay to ger it reapired" I am going to
get a nokia 3220 what is 100 times betta than the 02 x2. I have been
put off o2 phones for life. thanx xx p.s DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE

donkeys years to get on i am also not happy about the amount of pick's
you can store coz there is only about 20 spaces for pick's but its ok
i guess mobimum is the game on it were you have to feed ,study,sing
etc,with the little cat thing it's really cute the battery dosen't last
so long you have to charge it up every 2 days but i guess that thats
ok tho the camera quality is very good 10/10 for the camera my cousinand
my mate has got dis fone and i wud reccomend it to you for crimbo if
u r lookin for a nice small clam-shell desighned fone like the 02X2
the o2x3 is also good too it is allmost the same as the 02x2 exept the
o2x3 has the vidieo camera on but i like them both they have a voice
recorder on and it's really comes in handy for little notes to remember........i

This phone looks great. However...I bought it a month ago and have since
had to return it when it froze and refused to show my contacts. I have
had nothing but trouble with it, and I have never been able to send
picture messages. The ringtones are not bad, yet not great. The camera
is poor quality compared to other picture phones. I wouldn't reccommend
this phone, as a poor student it was all I could afford.

Previous phone was a superb nokia 8310 so it had a lot to live up to.
It looks very cool but texting is a bit rubbish - seems to put in random
words from predictive text every so often and generally is just not
that flowing. The camera and ringtones are pretty cool, but the phone
seems to take ages to actually do anything. The battery life is only
three days - awful compared to the week my old nokia used to last! All
in all, it looks better than it actually is, but fairly reasonable considering
I got it as a free upgrade!

Sending picture messages also doesn't work. The camera is rubbish and
if you move after you took a pic is blurs. Do not ever buy it. everyone
