Reviewed by Nellie on 01/01/2010 This phone is amazing, i could never have got a better phone- i got it ages ago and then i got a new phone, the lg ks 360 but that was rubbish so i went back to this one and i love it!!!!!!!!!! Rating:    
Reviewed by John R on 02/09/2009 Several instances of it not receiving calls when we know they have been made and in good areas of reception. Also can't hear the ring tones as they are very quiet. No Radio. Changed phones now, got a spare dud sim and will use it as a camera and music player from now on. John R - 2 Sept 09 Rating:    
Reviewed by sarah on 15/07/2009 this phone is ok but the ringing volume is very low i never hear it, and it crashes alot.its alright as a basic phone if u dont like all the fancy stuff Rating:    
Reviewed by O2 customer on 12/07/2009 Dont buy it, nothing wrong with the phone (ish) but when the OS messes up and you need to do a system update (quite a basic function of any post 1998 mobile phone)... you won't find anything helpfull on the O2 website. Seems they are so embarased about their own model phones... so embarased that the O2 store near me doesn't even STOCK O2 PHONES!!!! Looking for updates on the website will leave you confised and/or stressed Rating:

Reviewed by Abi on 19/06/2009 I had this phone and loved it, but eventually replaced it with a samsung that had better features. I've recently switched back to it because the samsung kept dying on me and I've found the ice so reliable, probably the most reliable phone I've ever owned! Still love it! x Rating:    
Reviewed by matt on 13/06/2009 i had myn for about 1 year, then it started to crash every time I wanted to access my photo album. Also at the same time I lost the ability to go on the the net. which is a shame because at first this phone was really good but now, its probably the worst phone iv had, and if its not the worst its defiantly the one I have had the most problems with.

Reviewed by lily on 02/05/2009 I had this phone once and it is really easy to use it doesn’t brake to easy so it is durable also I had dropped it into a puddle once and just left it over night and it was working very well the next morning its also very good for someone that likes texting a lot the key pad is soft so it doesn’t need much effort to type in a message Rating:    
Reviewed by Melissa on 22/03/2009 I've had this phone for 2 1/2 years now, and have had virtually no problems with it. I bought it second hand, without any software, so of course have not been able to connect it to my computer. It still hasn't failed to impress me - as a clumsy person, it is incredibly durable although not too large. It may be lacking in features that many people look for in hi-tech phones today, but it serves fantastically to anyone who just needs a phone to call and text with. It has recently been showing signs of ageing - occasionally freezing and needing to be restarted - but, for a phone that cost less than £30, it has been remarkably wearable. Will miss this phone when I eventually have to get a new one! Rating:

Reviewed by Neal on 10/06/2008 I have the strawberry (PINK?) ice. It is 2nd one i have had. First one kept crashing. It would not let me get access to my pictures.. Just kept telling me "Please Wait" while it loads the thumbnails. I think the pc suite crashed it as that was last thing i did before. May i suggest nobody deletes or moves a file using pc suite. It did it twice. The strawberry one i have now is excellent. It has a loud(er) ringer, but still somewhat subdued. Works excellent for a contant 6000hz and 11000hz tone. In 3G area, wap and internet access (as modem via bluetooth) is amazing. I really do belive it wuicker than my home 4meg connection. 2G is slow (estimate about 1-2kbs download speed). Also keeps crashing me out of meed=bo. relatively limited javascript engine. Wont run gmail application, but google maps and ebuddy ok. Some games crash it too (Fishing Mania). All in al, this is a brilliant phone. It does reset and reboot itself on occasions, however i believe it because i pressing buttons for menus that arent open yet as I am quicker than it can handle. The text ection with its predictive and english dictionary is ecellent. So simple my mother uses one (She 88) I arked a 5 despite these problems because of th one thing I relly like about it.. Its one hell of a durable phone that can take a beating better than the rest of the market (flip and slides are soo flimsey on same price range phone) Rating:

Sleek, lightweight and fits easy into your hand. Not great for music and the ringtones are awful - but there's nothing stopping you from downloading mp3 for free! Rating:

Reviewed by Leah on 07/04/2008 I bought this phone about 8 months ago and it did me fine for the first 4 or 5 months. It wouldn't save all my new contacts. They would stay for a few hours then just delete. Also, a couple of months after that it started to not save my call logs. This is a huge disadvantage as I can't see who my missed calls are from. Other than that it was alright, not very much memory though, but you get what you pay for (which wasn't very much). It was good for a while but started to go downhill after some time. Rating:    
Reviewed by Rachel on 07/04/2008 For the price of these phones you can't really complain, I've had mine a year and it still works ok. I did recently have that call log problem which was annoying but swapping the sim seems to do the trick. Its only frozen a couple of times. The camera etc is fairly good and it does the job ok.

Reviewed by Graham on 17/09/2007 Don't waste your time with this phone, it is the worst handset I have had the displeaseure of owning over the last 7 years of having a mobile. The software on it has failed twice now since January and even though the nice people at O2 replace it free each time, it is a like for like exchange therefore problems are reoccurring. Texting is hard as the keys are not user friendly and 50% of the time don't register your touch. When your inbox / sent message folder are all full up it won't tell you this, until you have finished texting the message you are on and ready to send - and you can't send it because there is not enough memory! (for those of us you like not to delete messages till you have to). There is also no option of changing the display on the phone eg a different colour scheme / font etc. One of the main cons is that the overall maximum volume level of the phone is unbelievabley low. I have had missed calls because of failing to hear the handset ring. My call register section of the phone has now stopped working eg no log of missed calls / dialled numbers etc. And to top it all off it looks like a ladyshaver. I think O2 have actually stopped manufacturing the O2 ice now but beware of the inevitable replacement... Rating:

Reviewed by jake on 19/08/2007 i have had one of these phones and in my oppinion they are noy very good and wood not recoment them as in my experiance they break very easaly and if u like your music this is not the phone for you as it has very poor memory and i was only able to fit the max of 7 mp3 on mine. On the other hand i would say that the camera was quick and was a good quolity. it is a stylish fone but i only had mine for a few week and it was being looked after very well but it broke doen internaly. as i do like music i dint like this phone becouse of the memory and after haveing this phone i have upgraded to a samsung e900 wich i would say is a fantastic phone and would recomend one. allthought the o2 ice dos have i slot for a micros sd i tryed one and it din't seem to work in it allthough it workes just fine in my e900.

Reviewed by Juju's Dad on 12/08/2007 Very fault prone software. Has hung up and then magically restarted(intermittent, so hard to take back to shop). Am mainlyadding commentcoz of one prob we had in case someone else gets same. ...All buttons stuck. This is not an easy phone to take apart as has screws ratherthan nokia type clips. I grabbed the phone and twisted it a bit [disclaimer if youdothis and snap yourphone in two you are a div - it's not my problem] buttons really were physically jammed it tunred out and this popped them back thru thecase properly. Started working again. All in all this phone is quite rubbish technically. My MDA compact (OK different beast entirely) beats it hollow as does the wife's Nokia monstrosity. Phone is perdybut rubbish. One for the kids only. Rating:    
Reviewed by Emily on 12/08/2007 Was fine for the first 5 months but then started freezing, switching itself off, deleting calllogs not registering saved numbers etc, would expect a phone to last longer than 5 months, would be worth paying the extra money and getting a better phone in the first place! Memory is poor even with a memnory card in! Alrite for a couple of monhts but after that rubbish! Rating:

Reviewed by Nell on 31/07/2007 Not impressed. It won't recognise the SD card, the volume is so low I hardly ever hear it and it's costing me a fortune to retrieve my voicemails because of this. The battery life is erratic, this morning it showed two thirds full and half an hour later it switched off as the battery was flat even though I hadn't used it. It freezes sometimes and I have to switch it off and then on again to make it work. All in all a very disappointing phone although it looks nice. Rating:

Reviewed by jordan on 30/07/2007 very good phone. I would recomend to anyone. I recently bought it for 39.99. for this price you cannot complain. But still if I bought it for 99.99 I would still be complitely saticfied. The only down side is the battery life. the most days I got out of this battery is 5 days. Also it has a memory card slot for extra memory. for me its the perfect phone Rating:

Reviewed by Sasha McKenna on 20/07/2007 This phone looks really good and I always get complemented on it but after about 5 months functions started shutting down and it just keeps getting worse. I've had the phone about 7 months now (keep meaning to take it back) and I only get about a third of my calls through, as far as I can tell, it freezes every time I look in my call list, I can't reset my ringtone and it often just shuts down.

Reviewed by counter on 19/07/2007 This is a great phone for the money, but I still can't get it to recognise the SD Memory Card. I've tried following the steps put up by Hieu from Viet Nam below, but it still won't recognise the card. I've reformatted the card using FAT (not FAT32). I put it back in the phone, it recognises the card being re-inserted. I then take it out, put on some music via the memory card reader, re-insert into phone and it still doesn't recognise the content. Am I missing a step ? Rating:

Reviewed by Williamg on 03/07/2007 Probably the worst phone I have used in my life. Very bad user interface. The phone was clearly rushed into production. There are far too many bugs with no patches available from o2. I can't redial numbers on my phone, open some folders and do some other things.. never again! I rate this "no" stars. Rating:

Reviewed by Toby on 26/06/2007 Stylish and distinctive phone and gets lots of good compliments from people (yeah!), but even after two months I find the functions a bit cumbersome and time-consuming. The worst thing is that, if you start writing a text message and then get distracted by something else, you have to save it as a draft or it deletes it after like 30 seconds! As I am used to Nokias which never did this, I find it infuriating because I never remember to save it. Overall though, it's OK if you're happy to stay with O2 for the foreseeable. Good luck getting it unlocked though - you're frankly more likely to find a car with square wheels. Rating:

Reviewed by Jo on 19/06/2007 what a load of rubbish!!!!!! dont buy if you need a phone in an emergency. battery has a mind of its own it can last 2/3 days or 2/3 hours Rating:    
Reviewed by erakid on 18/06/2007 It has a cool design, that's all. The sound of O2 Ice is too low, it's not loud enough for you to recognize that your phone's ringing. So if you just use it in vibrate mode, it's OK. Because of the sound quality, O2 Ice is bad for enjoying music and video. The one thing that you may concern is that it can't recognize the other formats of phone no., ex: when my friend ring me, the phone number donot show the country code (the prefix +84...) while in the sms it show, O2 Ice cannot recognize those are just 1 number, so I cannot know who is sms me!!!

Reviewed by William Moore on 13/06/2007 I've had the o2 Ice for about 6 months now. It was excellent at the start and I couldn't disagree with all the great reviews, however, look on the net for o2 after 6+ months time period. Mine now breaks down every time I make/recieve calls or check my call log and says "RECOVERING" then takes about 5 mins to start up again. I can't access my pictures from the phone any more either, have to use the USB. Everything else is excellent. !Check Ebay and reasons for people selling the phone! Rating:
