A Child's Toy that Pretends to be a Phone

6.0/10

I had to RMA my first one because the speaker wouldn't work. The second one only charges if you plug and unplug it multiple times in rapid secession first. I don't have the heart to RMA this one as well. Labeled as Cingular, so these have obviously been sitting in a warehouse for the last 2 yrs! Don't buy this unless you're cheap or really broke - you will not be happy. Read more
- It's cheap (as in price), Unlocked, Decent Reception

Ok so I already own a W800i walkman phone with all the bells and whistles I could ask for, so why on earth would I even think of buying a basic, bottom of the range mobile . Well my W800i is locked to network and I rather fancied taking advantage of Vodafone's free weekend calls offer. So rather than buying a fancy new phone I decided something basic would do the trick and I picked up this, the Sony Ericsson J220i in Woolworths for a paltry £23.99. Read more
- Cute little phone, cheap as chips, makes calls and writes texts
- Doesn't really do anything but make calls and write texts
