Best of both sims!,
I chose this phone to get out of the silly world of smart phones with their expensive contracts and time wasting apps. The dual sim is perfect, I tried free sims from every provider and checked signal in the main areas that I live/work. Chose the two that complimented each other so I can always get a signal (I live in the countryside so signal can be dodgy). I bought a 16G memory card and put most of my favourite music on. It’s very basic and you can’t search for songs very easily but if you set them in a known order on the memory card its not too bad. The speaker is good and loud but quality is a not brilliant, but hey, its a phone! By far the best feature of this phone is the battery life, its incredible – lasting almost two weeks with normal use (average five calls a day and maybe the same texts). Probably the best thing about owning this phone is the lack of camera, sat nav, internet, etc etc. Its a phone and a music player with a massive battery, thats all, and thats all I wanted so I love it.

|Basic phone, but dual SIM works well,
Pros: dual SIM functionality works well (both SIMs active to receive and make texts/calls), handy built-in torch and impressive battery life. Lightweight.
Cons: all plastic phone with cheap look and feel, crude display and ring tones.
Overall: good for international trips but you will probably want to switch to your regular phone whenever you don’t need the dual SIMs.

|Plenty to tick the box,
I have to admit, I am a Nokia follower, and this appealed to me especially because it is a Nokia … Was I let down.. probably..
The X1 came within 24hrs, opened the packaging.. No connector for computer back up.. The box seamed very sparse, and it was.. Battery, Phone and charger..
Exactly what I had ordered… a basic slim phone that’s big enough for my pocket and everyday use.
Got the phone out, put in two Sims, my work Sim which is Orange, and my personal one which is Vodafone, the display come up showing two Sims which you can re name as you see fit, you have a choice of which Sim is your default Sim, and you are away .. I thought I would be referring back to my original Nokia’s within hours.
4 weeks on I am still using the phone, and it is really good, I have adapted to using 1 phone, and the features that I thought I needed.. well I can get buy without ..
The phone does not have: – Bluetooth .. I only used it to connect to the car in phone system.. and send pictures to my laptop, I now drive safely and don’t make calls whilst I drive .. tick in the box ..
You receive calls and Text exactly the same as if it was 1 Sim with the option of different ring tones for each . Tick in the box ..
The Phone does not have a camera, I used the camera mainly for work, I don’t get asked to take pictures at work any more .. another tick in the box ..
The phone numbers I have on my existing Sims, are still on the Sims, plus I still have the phone memory as well, the phone book on the phone lets you search all numbers in 1 list. Another tick in the box .
With the option to use option before pressing call, you get the option to choose the other Sim an d make the call. Another Tick in the box
The phone is exactly what you need to cut down to 1 phone if you don’t need Bluetooth and a camera.. Personally I find it a little too basic, I would like the features, so I am looking for a Nokia that has just what I want .. dual Sim phones are the way for me .. I am using the phone and would now only swap for another dual Sim ..
