I heard that there was a limitation on the size of file that you can send over bluetooth. Is this correct becuase im thinking of buying this phone and wanted to know if that is true.

i'm thinking of buying this phone, the most important thing to me in buying a phone is how great the camera is, on average does anyone know how many pictures the camera can store?
thanks. x

I have jst bought a sharp gx25 and it is great,
Pros: Good camera which, although slow, has super quality, good storage space, good size and great design, always seems to get a signal.

cons: Whith bluetooth turned on the battry goes down very quick, the battry display bars seen to go down very quickly once they get past the third one, for instance, if you have three bars of battry life left and you turn it on and then back on it may well say battry low, quite poor vidio capture.
Well, thats all from me, overall an OK phone.

hi,
I have used my GX25 for a month, the thing I don't like is when I turn it on, I have to wait about one minute to access to my contacts. Is it the same for you ?
thanks.

GX25 and GZ200 are the same. The only differnce is the user interface. GX25 is made by sharp for Vodafone, while GZ200 is for a Chinese company called XERA. But basically, both phones are the same.

i have had this handset for about 6 months and think its a good enough phone.
It does everything I need a phone for !
like calling people and receiving calls on it too !! oh and it takes pictures :)
In answer to those shutter noise problems,
NO you cant turn it off, but you can change the sound, when you activate the camera, click options, and go up, you will see shutter sound.

Well, I have used the sharp GX25 for a couple of months now and I think it is a great phone. It functional features are great. Great quality digital camera, slick design and though it does not have an external antenna, its signal reception is great. I am happy the Irda and Bluetooth works well enough unlike some other models of the GX family.

Some complains I have about the phone is that it doesn't have active flip (that is flip open and answer a call), it has very low memory space hence I can't do some stuffs. I doesn't support some music file format like MP3 and it can be selective in terms of transferring applications via Irda or Bluetooth. Also during video mode active, recording is blurr while phone moves.

Generally, I thinks it is a great phone. I has my vote!

And it is quite fashionable as well, although cant be compared with V3.

It is quite thick, buit I have never have a difficulty of getting it out of my pocket. The only problem I have is that it doesnt answer a call directly when I open the flip

To SARACEN,
Thanks for responding bak to my opinion. I think that your right how u said that the V3 only wins in design but isn't the sharp really thick. Does it stick out of your pocket alot? Have u had ny problems with this phone? Is it fashionable? Please write back, stef

I bought this model a little under 2months ago...Pictures are fantastc n compared to other models available(however it is my experience that sharp are one of the best for photo resolution).I have previously ownec two other sharp numbers including the relatively old model Sharp GX20. i have had many models and makes of phone over the last few years and in my opinion sharp is the leading manufacturer...notibly this model with it's easy to use style, light weight and high resolution.

I would definitely recommend GX 25
V3 only wins in the design. Inside, GX 25 is absolutely better. It has better display, camera quality and shape. V3 is thin, but it is too wide, therefore it is not ergonomic in our hands.

Anyway, this is only my opinion. The choice is yours.
