Sharp GX10i Review
Phone rating: 
The Sharp GX10i mobile phone is the successor to the GX10, offering
triband capability and improved camera functions. It comes in a distinctive
anthracite colour, to distinguish it from the older GX10.
The Sharp GX10i was one of the best multimedia phones when it launched,
with MMS, 65,000 colour TFT display, and an integrated
digital camera with 110,000 pixels, digital zoom and storage for up
to 80 pictures. However it cannot compare with more modern camera phones.
It suffers from having a poor quality camera and no easy way of transferring
pictures from the phone to a PC.
Features of the Sharp GX10i include:
- WAP, GPRS
- 16 voice polyphonic ringtones, ringtone composer
- High resolution colour display (120 x 160 pixels, 65,536 colours)
plus external display
- Multimedia Messaging (MMS)
- Downloadable Java™ applications
- Enhanced animation
- Wallpaper
- Caller identification (on external display)
- Built-in infra-red modem
- Predictive text input
- Clock, calendar, games
- Size: 94 x 49 x 27 mm
- Weight: 107g
- Battery standby: up to 250 hours
- Battery talktime: up to 3.5 hours
- Vibration alert
- Tri band

I will try and keep this short and to the point. I brought a T610 mainly
because I heard and read such bad things about the GX10i's battery life,
but 2 weeks later I had changed it to a GX10i. I use my phone for txts
and the odd drunken call on a weekend...lol. Since Ive had the GX10i
ive charged it twice in two weeks! It takes 2 hours to charge and after
reading some reviews I thought by the time I had a look around the phone
and taken some pics the battery would be dead.......not the case so
please dont let that put you off! The keys are big and easy to find
unlike the T610 and also that large TFT screen is crystal clear. Ive
also noticed that the pictures are of a far better quality than the
T610. I wont carry on with the many good points, because if like me
the battery was the issue I have covered that. This is my first flip
top phone and I for one am very happy with it, plus I got it for £179.99
which was a bonus and in the sale at a certain high street store...just
think stupid adverts ;-)

Got this phone a couple of days ago as an "upgrade" from my sl45i. but
to be honest its not much of one. ok so it has colour screen and a camera.
I'm not entirely unimpressed by the camera but i wouldn't seek it out.
The one thing i liked with the siemens is the fact you had access to
the file system via irda. I liked the fact that i could get ringtones
and games for free from spurious sources but on this fone its nigh on
impossible and im not paying 2 quid or whatever to dl a ringtone to
get bored of it 2 hours later... It's a pretty average phone but to
be honest guys the phones being released lately arent up to much . cept
maybe the new SE or SPV. I got the phone for free on a really good pay
monthly deal so i'm not too fussed. but this phone could easily be better.

Well theres nothing much to say about this phone except it is absoloutely
fab. If you have £250 go out and get yourself one and you can trust
me because i have had my fair share of mobile phones (about 14) since
they came out and this is the best so far. And you will be the envy
of all your mates if you get it, with its superb polyphonic ringtones
(16 chords, which are great) and superb colour screen. The bottom line
is if you have the money get it because nothing comes close to it on
the phone market at the moment. Well except the Gx20 but thats £150
more just for a video recorder and that only records 50 secs. So for
£250 its a bargain buy it!

As many of the previous reviewers, I am a former Nokia user and whilst
the phone is good allround I think the initial novelty has worn off.
The camera is great fun but the phone is missing basic things like SNOOZE
on the alarm clock and inserting words into texts when using predictive
texting. New features are always good but don't forget what people actually
use their phones for! Can't manufacturers make these phones with integrated
aerials? (Me used to the Nokia again) It's a nightmare fitting into
a girls small purse!

Dont get the gx20, dont get me wrong its a brilliant phone but for £150-£200
MORE than the gx10i all for a camcorder????????Apart from the camcorder
and the front colour screen its the same as the gx10i.I have got a gx10i
and i got it from a catalouge for £269 which is a lot of money for a
phone i thought BUT the gx20 is £499 ALL FOR A 20 SECOND CAMCORDER?.
MY MATE HAS THIS FONE I THINK HE IS MAD FOR BUYIN IT FOR 500 QUID but
there you go, if you want a very very very very good fone for £270 get
the gx10i, camera is great, everything is great why would you need camcorder

the gx10i thank you for taking the time to read this review. Gary

the phone is fantastic! ive had no problems with the battery life -
even after constant use of the camera and games. the 16 voice polyphonic
tones are a joy to listen to although some of the supplied tones are
mearly sound effects. the screen is very bright and therefore clear
with the screen still being quite easily visible when the backlight
is turned off. camera quality is exellent-however, this is the only
camera phones pics that ive saw, but i own a digital camera and the
shots are acceptable for when the camera is left at home. the external
screen is also bright and clear- with the contrast being adjustable.
the keys are responsive, although it is sometimes difficult to acknowledge
a key press when typing quickly. the memory of 700kb doesnt appear to
be large enough on paper, however i have stored around 40 pictures at
the medium size, one java game and one downloaded ringtone and have
only used 40% of the memory (the phonebook memory is seperate from this
pool t hough which allows for 200 entries). overall, the sharp gx10i
is a perfect phone for me, although the lack of bluetoth will restrict
its use with those that need such a feature. there are other, better
phones available for higher prices, such as my preferred choice the
GX20- but as that was priced too high at the moment, the gx10i is the
best phone in the £200-230 price bracket available at present on a pay
and go tariff.

Just so the normal folk out there know, this phone can also be used
by people who still both write and read in English. My previous phone
was a Nokia 8310, the only thing that sells that is the name Nokia.
Now this Sharpe GX10i is the phone that covers most things to a good
degree of quality. I've only had mine for a day and I've found my way
around it's functions without the use of the manual. If you've got one
of these phone's do not even bother looking through the manual until
you've figured most of it out. The manual is hopeless, just check manual
for things you may have missed yourself. People here at slating the
fact the photo quality isn't great, well that's true but the phone is
designed as a phone not a camera. If you want the pixel perfect pictures,
BUY A DIGITAL CAMERA, if you want amusing snapshot photo's use a phone,
this way it also takes away the worry of connection to PC's. You really
don't need to connect a phone to a PC to view a photo. The quality isn't
worth the effort. The photo's are more for fun, than to help you win
photographer of the year. If you want quality photo's spend £300 on
a camera and not a £20 per month contract with a phone company. I'm
sure as mobile technolgy progresses it will get better. The games market
for this phone is huge and includes Fifa 2004, which looks very good
but the controls are fiddly. Back to the phone, once you've found your
ways through the menus everything is pretty straight forward. Someone
mentioned that the phone has a small inbox, which if true (I don't know)
but why would you want more than 10 messages in your inbox in one go?
It's a communication tool not a storage tool.Personally I think people
are hoping for too much too soon and too cheap. Overall, I like this
phone. It does what it is supposed to do with lots of extra's games,
music editor etc, tunes and games also to download and if you're only
paying £20 a month for a year, it's well priced.

I purchased this phone yesterday and i can say i am delighted so far!
I have always been a Nokia person, but having this phone has made me
see just how boring, old and dated Nokias really are! It looks great,
has good camera facilities, great games, good ringtones, nice picture
quality..etc - the one thing that Nokia does pip the Sharp on is texting,
but we all know theres nothing we can do about this (I can live with
it though!), Nokia do have the best texting capabilities to their credit.
For the money i paid for this phone (£199.99) I am chuffed, even after
paying another £30 for a data cable. I love it! I was going to get the
Samsung v200, but it had sold out - and I'm so glad it had!! This is
much better!

You Have To Start Again And If Its A Long Text It Would Have Took Ages
Using This Handset To Type In Anyway I Would Have Liked To Record Sound
And Use It As A Ringtone Too.I Like The Screen And The Looks But This

I got this phone as an early christmas presnt and as soon as i opened
the box and turned it on i was very impressed. It looks nice and(although
it is a bit big and chunky) and the colour/camera is very good. The
picture quality is, i think, the best out of its class and after having
ago on my mates Sony Ericsson T610 i can honostly say the Sharp is far
better. But even good phones have to have some flaws, the first one
that comes to mind it the life of the battery. Excuse my french but
its absolutly SHAT PANK. At first i though it was because i hadnt charged
it for long enough, but then after leaving it on charge over night i
was amazed to find out it was dead at the end of the day! Other flaws
are thats its hard to actually go to your own URL you mainly have to
stay on vodafones own "Vodafone Live" which is quite expensive. Also
it would make it far better if it had some sort of night mode. Overall
the pluses far out weigh the negatives, good phone X-D P.S I am taking
mine back and gettin the Samsung e700 (i recomend it)

comment: just a nice phone. plus: very nice screen, nice sounds and
battery that seems to last long enough. Java is a strong point also.
Light enough and external display is very helpful. minus: camera is
ok but useless unless you get a cable to connect with your pc. still
photos are of too low resolution (that's the situation with all phones
anyway) infrared's only use is when phone serves as a modem. not enough
memory for sms and uncomfortable keypad for writting sms. also sms editor
not good enough. calendar useless since there is no reminder. overall:
just a toy. not for serious use. could have had many more features but
engineers choose to leave them out so they either implement them in
a newer version or consumer should pay provider for them. it's a pity.
i'm heading back to NOKIA!

I like the phone but after only 4 months I'm already looking for something
else. I too am disappointed with the lack of IR functionality. It works
fine as an IR modem and I use it regularly to connect to my company's
LAN remotely but it seems that is it's only use. What it can't do is
be used for sending pictures to & from PC, it can't be used for IRing
pictures, addresses or ringsignals (or anything else for that matter)
to another phone, even another Sharp. The calendar function is all but
useless........no reminder option, no alarm feature, no synchronisation
with anything. Some of it's good features are the camera & screen -
far better than a lot of Nokias & Ericssons my friends have but you
can't attach/insert pics in MMS emails (utilising Vodafones Minimail
service which is annoying to say the least. Probably wouldn't recommend
it to anyone - sad but true.

Well I have had this phone for a few months now and can say I have had
no problems with it.The sounds you get are out of this world and Vodafone
live is great to get all your updates on sport live if you can't watch
it on TV. the text is simple you do the same as Nokia phones. Screen
is easy to see nice and big so you don't have to push the phone up to
your eyes to see text or who has phoned. I say to any body that this
is the phone to get or the new one Gx20 Well done Sharp.

It's a pretty cool phone, but I am dissapointed of the fact you cannot
do picture transfer using the Infrared...WHY?? So you have to go out
and buy a cable to do picture transfer, when that should really come
as standard.

I was a bit worried when i purchased this phone as i was spending £200
on it. I previously had a Nokia 8210 and SonyEricsson T300. The T300
was simply cr#p as it displayed poor colour and low sounding tones.
So when i purchased the GX10i i was a bit worried but i was proven wrong.
The phone displays colour fantastically and the tones are loud and clear.
The menu systems are easy and in-depth and the camera is good quality
and clear, especially compared to the T300 camera which was crap and
dark. The only downside to the phone is the size, bulkyness and weight
which can be a problem as you cannot slip it into your pocket without
having a bulk appearing. The other downside is that the phone has no
Bluetooth. Overall and excellent phone with great features.

Hi, I bought this phone just over a month ago and I think it is great.
I did know at the time that there was a newer version coming out, the
GX20, but wasn't sure when in NZ. Vodafone were offering such a great
deal on the phone at the time that I went with the GX10i. I did have
some problems with connecting to VodafoneLive and downloading games
and ringtones but vodafone sorted these problems out. Pet bugs: 1. Infrared
- I use to own a NOKIA 6210 which was also a great phone. This had the
great feature of being able to customise the phone via infrared. I really
don't know why the Sharp GX10i didn't offer this also. If they did it
would be the best phone ever. 2. Bluetooth - This phone doesn't have
it, really should, makes for easier future upgrades. ie car kits, headsets
3. Menu - Can be a little frustrating sometimes. An example is when
taking a picture you click the main center button. then to save you
click the left soft key. (this is ok) the problem is if you accidentally
push the center key again it goes into send to someone mode. if you
want to go back to taking another picture you have to start all over
again 4. Active Folder - this is when you open or close the phone. should
have been an option to turn on or off a feature that allowed calls to
be answered by simply opening the phone but you have to open phone then
press the pickup button. it already disconnects when you shut it. 5a.
Phone Book - this was really annoying! i noticed that if you want to
have quick dial numbers then you have to have the number on the sim
card. ok, but if you want to use the cool picture caller id, then you
have to have the number on the phone!?! that means you have to double
up if you want both. why couldn't it have just been on the phone as
well. 5b. Phone Book - you have to copy each address from the sim to
phone one by one. no copy all. this was really annoying. you shouldn't
need to do it often but still. 6. Voice Memo - it would have been really
nice if it allowed recorded sounds to be used as you ringtone. i know
on some polyphonic phone you can do this. why not the GX10i. 7. Not
really a bug but - the camera function has 2 modes. i have read the
manual and asked the vodafone help desk but no one has been able to
give a straight answer as to what the difference between them are. strange.
Ok that is all the little bugs i found with the phone. other than that
i have had alot of fun and with it and it is a great phone :)

Sounds like there is a lot of people out there that like the GX10i.
I personally think its pretty ordinary. those trying to download between
there pc and phone via infra red you are waisting there time if you
look closely at the documentation for the phone the ir port will only
allow you to use the phone as a gsm modem. for additional features upload/download
pics you need the data cable. after blowing about 100 dollars you will
find thats all it lets you do. you cannot alter phonebook,sms, download
ringtones or games etc via your pc. if all you want is a camera for
taking low quality pics or are happy to spend a heap of money to download
extras from vodafone live then maybe you should save that money and
buy a real phone. either that or get it for a young child cos it appears
that sharp now may toys.

MY GX10i is coming tomorow... now i have been reading around because
of all this talk about data transfer and i believe that the infrared
is unfortunatly useless for data transfere and can ONLY ACT AS A MODEM
as this is what it was built for... HOWEVER a data cable for the mere
price of around 20 pounds will solve all you data transfer problems,
i found a decent one here----> http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/1601.htm
This is £24 and a good deal as it comes with the program and all the
drivers you need to send pictures, but foir the GX10i it does not allow
polyphonic transfer only to the GX20 it does..can anyone explain this.
But dont just take my example of it, search around im sure you will
find the data cable to suit you, but make sure the product says it definatly
works with the GX10 or GX10i and you will be able to get your money
back if this does not work... yours, Mark P.s The Gx10i is the newer

2003, The reason you are having problems doing anything with the Infrared
is because Sharp, for some unknown reason, only allow the IR to be used
to connect the phone as a modem. Beats me why, you can't even beam stuff
anywhere or play multi games over IR, screwy. And if you want to copy
the items from the SIM, there is no Copy All function, you have to do
it one by one, how senseless. This phone is a piece of cr#p. The GX-20
is a step up but you're better to get the GD88 (Panasonic), the T610
(Sony Ericsson) or best of all, the P800 (Sony Ericsson).

On recieving this phone i was extremely happy. The phone itself crys
out with quality and style (if a little bulky in the pocket). It only
took 2 hours to charge before i could play with it and as soon as you
turn it on a very pleasing extremly clear and colourful display greats
you. A child of 2 could operate the menu system which again makes you
feel happy. !!!!However!!!! I am sending it back for the following reasons
..... some of which you might feel are a tad petty but when you are
forced to live with it for a year (on contract) you expect better...
Firstly the Camera - good for a laugh but NOTHING like as good as the
Nokia 3650 - focus is blurred and there is a BIG delay from the camera
lens to the screen (meaning what you see is what happened 1 second before!).
The pics themselves are a tad dark but good enough for fun i guess.
Transfering these pics is the main problem!! The GX10i user manual says
infra red is ONLY for using the phone as a modem and not for picture
transfer.... the manual then specifically says buy a DATA CABLE to download
images - i did this and also downloaded 'handset PICTURE manager for
GX10i' from Sharp-mobile.com (the official website) as recomended. The
cable installs but refuses to connect to the phone.... So i look at
the FAQs on Sharp-Mobile.com - there it specifically says the Data Cable
acts 'exactly the same as infra red and it is in NO WAY possible to
download images with it!!'.... the complete opposite to the GX10i official
user manual! Unbelievable!! How can Sharp offer software for a cable
that will NEVER work!! Other gripes are GPRS which is yet to work and
diverts to using CSD (costing 10p per minute rather than 1p per 10Kbs
downloaded!!)... for a phonethat is designed for Vodafone Live this
is pretty poor! Picture messages don't work. Txting is awkward as the
buttons are inset into the phone and the screen is VERY top heavy so
one hand txting is a bit awkward. Downloading ringtones is not done
via txt messages on this phone (unlike nokia/Ericson) ... you have to
use the WAP on the phone to access a URL address and download.... I
tried 4 times from ringtonesuk.com and never got the correct one!! (which
i believe was the phone not the website although i could be wrong) In
conclusion - beutiful design, excellent build and good if you only use
it for phone calls. Sorry Sharp but contradicting your own manual is
a BIG no no in my book and i should try and get my £20 back from you!....
I'm off to Nokia and there 7250i me thinks - anyone with a different

Only had the phone a few days, but so far have been very impressed.
Look and feel of the phone is really nice. I especially like the little
click when opening the phone, a minor point I know, but it makes me
happy. I was concerned about about scratching the phone, in and out
pocket etc.. so decided to buy a protective case. I didn't want to spoil
the look of the phone so opted for a nice Body Glove number, I'm now
happy in the knowledge that it's classy finish is well protected. The
funtionality of the phone is extremely user friendly, with messaging
an absolute doddle. To be honest, their isn't anything i feel i need
to do that I cant. Sharp have obvoiusly thought long and hard about
the needs of the user, and this comes across loud and clear. The predictive
text is so easy to use, with the keys nicely spaced apart and soft to
press that the message is typed and sent in a blink. And it allows personal
words to be added the dictionary, very handy when constantly putting
in fo r example a name that it wouldn't normally know. I've briefly
used the Voderfone Live option, to varying degrees of success, as with
any internet connection, the ability to connect does vary somewhat,
but a minor problem that I'm sure occurs in all internet based phones.
The quality of the camera really surprised me, I was expecting a poor
picture quality that was more a selling gimic than usable tool, oh how
wrong I was. Pictures taken close up are bloody fab, further away they
seem to pixilate a little, but hey, if I wanted a digital camera, I
would have bought one. The camera is so much better than the likes of
the Samsung V200. Recently had a stag do in Ireland, with both the Sharp
and Samsung taking pics like for like and the difference was amazing,
Even in dark conditions, the sharp produce average to good pictures,
whereas the samsung produces bugger all. Catch up samsung, your well
behind. The only reason anyone would recomend you buy a samsung for
example, is eithe r they have not used the Sharp GX10i or they enjoy
using a phone that fails to deliver at every level. I don't normally
bother to review any products I buy, but I've been so impressed to date
with my new purchase I felt it only fair to give my impartial view of
the this totally wicked phone. Updating your phone.....then look no
further. Never had a phone before.....then look no further.......Want
to impress.......then look no further... Want a phone that looks great
but is as useful as speaking into a house brick, then buy the Samsung
V200 and fill ya boots.............I think you get the picture....Enjoy..
Please note that these views are my personally feelings. I suggest going
to your local high street phone shop and getting a demo of all the phones
you like, it's important to view them youself to be sure of the right
choice.

think this phone is great, and also value for money. Even priced at
about 1K (or less then that now) I think the GX10i is worth every penny,
especially if you put them up against Nokia etc. For a phone with many
functions (Camera blah blah blah) it is also deisgned very well. Looks
stylish and attrative. The only aspect I wished was better was the camera
and picture quality. Ok, phones are phones and we can't exactly expect
them to be as good as video cameras or have quality pictures as a digital
camera, but I would have liked the picture quality to be better. Like
in comparision to the Nokia 7650 or Panasonic GD88, the picture quality

is done in less than an hour! Anyone deciding on which phone to chose
from should not hesitate in buying this one! you will not be disappointed!!!!

This is the best one I have ever had and I have had quite a few. Last
one was a V200 but sold that since it was so cheesy. Top is the color
screen, which is so vivid and bright, it beats anything in the market.
It looks so cool even when switched off. A lot of though has gone into
making this phone. Which you can instantly see, since its so customable
to your taste, even down to the number of minutes the lights are switched
on. The only down is the battery lenght, you do need to charge every
12 hours.
