Saw on here the flip version of this and just had to get one and see what it was like! My iPhone recently went down so bought this off eBay and it is ridiculously TINY!!! But a pretty good phone!

Cause the little badge, took it off a spare key!

I actually quite like it!! I've got iMessages still going through to the iPad on the same number and anyone who sends standard texts get through to this! The speaker is pretty good, hands free works well. Only gripe is just how long it takes to write a txt on it when the iPad isn't handy!

Not bad for £31!
 
That's miniature!! Some newspaper article was banging on about getting these banned as prisoners were having these sneaked in or something haha.
 
What size SIM card does it take?

I've just got a Sony Xperia Z Ultra, which about as far away as you can get from this in terms of size, but one of these might be handy when I don't want to carry a huge phone...
 
It takes a standard size SIM card and up to 4GB micro SD too for storage.
Radio
MP3 player
Alarm
Choose you own music as ringtone
Make and receive calls
Text messaging

TBH it is VERY similar to the original Nokia Operating System!
 
Weirdly I was worried weather it would have a vibrate function or not to feel when it was ringing and I was happy when I found out that it does indeed vibrate!


Few pics to show just how small it is...

Milk bottle top - anything less than full fat is just water! :D

Sharpie (don't ask why it's pink!!)

I have a friend who works in prison, and these new keyfob phones are causing a bit of havoc... As they smuggle them in and give them to inmates who then carry out their illegal businesses from prison :o

Looks well cool though... My fav all time mobile was my nokia 8210!

I saw this a while back on ebay and amazon, and was very tempted, but wasn't sure how good it would be. Might well get one now after your review !
 
Ah this is perfect! Carrying round an iPhone when going running is a PIA and a bit OTT. Will just get one of these!
