Really good phone. Easy for everyone including elderly. The Google Play Store had thousands of free games and apps. Very easy to text people. Sound quality is really good. Charge is a little poor.
The Orange Barcelona is an unusual smartphone because it combines a full QWERTY keyboard with a touch-screen. The screen is quite small but because it runs Android Froyo the display can be flipped. It combines the shape and feel and some features of a much more expensive Blackberry with the ease of use of an Android touch-sreen phone. ***** The phone is heavily branded and tailored to the Orange mobile service, and includes several Orange Apps, most of which cost money to purchase, but it works equally well with the thousands of free Apps available on Android Market and so can be set up easily to work with all major email systems and even Windows Live. ***** It includes a great music player and produces quite a good sound from its inbuilt speakers, but the player does not play WMA files, so some conversion to MP3 format may be necessary. ***** The keyboard and overall build quality is excellent, and the battery life is 1-2 days, which is quite good for the class of phone. The screen is a little small for playing some games or working with Office Documents, but it is OK for occasional use. ***** Another real bonus is that the browser supports flash - something which Apple iPhones don't support any more! ***** I bought this phone as a replacement for my Orange SanFrancisco which was only touch-screen - I would have preferred to have bought a Windows Phone, but this Barcelona Model really is one of the best phones I have ever owned and used. ***** Remember that because it is a Google Android phone you will need a Google Account for best results. One bonus of this is that if you use your Google/Gmail Account to control your contacts they are automatically synchronised with the phone as soon as you make any changes.Read full review
brilliant phone with QWERTY keypad.. battery life is not good as this is smart phone with android touch screen, good screen colour.
Trust me,this phone looks good,but in my opinion fails in every department.I sold mine for a loss.Not only does the orange shops offer no or little service.They provide products which they know have a limited service
Good phone, great mix of android and some orange features in a quality looking/feeling phone. Does a great job, I bought it for my dad as he uses blackberries at work and this is very similar. at this price and with one of the 1gb sims from orange cant go wrong!
