| Review summary | When it comes to inexpensive pay as you go handsets, Alcatel has definitely made a name for itself. The OT-S520 is another attractive phone from the company, but it's very basic and the keypad is much smaller than we'd like Read full review |
If you're looking for a low cost, pay as you go handset, then the Orange Berlin is definitely worth checking out. It looks great, has loads of impressive features and doesn't cost the Earth. Only the short battery life lets it down slightly Read full review |
The Sagem my150X handset from looks great and is easy to use. If you're looking for a super cheap Pay As You Go phone, it's a seriously attractive option Read full review |
The Nokia 6303 Classic lives up to its name by refining the best features of the phones of yesteryear, and packing them into a solid case that's lovely to hold. It's a perfect phone for anyone who wants easy calling, texting and music for a low price, and is happy to forgo high-end features like GPS and Wi-Fi Read full review |
