Alcatel One Touch 511

Alcatel One Touch 511 review - Small and lite, able to do own voice/music clip as ringtone. Three games one hand operationBattery lasts for.2-3 days on ono. All round effort and good try to alcatel

Alcatel 511 delivers what it promises; a MOBILE (small, can carry everywhere comfortably) PHONE (powerful reception picks signal almost anywhere and all the supporting function that make your call a pleasurable experience), but it's not an arcade game, a juke box or anything else to get the attraction of others.

While driving I can make calls while my hands on the steering wheel, and after the call I have all the information I needed from a call recorded as voice memos.

It's a rugged and a hard working slave that doesn't look nice on the outside

i had been using Alcatels for a long time. They always has a quirky-french derived menu system that boogles my Nokia-loving friends and has attitude to boot. Otherwise a value for money, reliable and nice phone to use and to hold. Just needs getting used to. I hate the DriveKey cursor button thoug.

Having had around ten phones in my short mobile phone lifetime and also having lost a vast percentage of them, the alcatel 511 is one phone i wouldnt mind loosing! If you want a phone thats going to be good value for money i suggest you get a nokia. Any type of nokia just as long as it is a nokia. They are stylish, sleek, LOUD and worth every penny thats spent on them. If your going to buy an alcatel of any sort you might wana give it to your dog as a Christmas present.

Good battery, i liked the size and weight. Central navigation button refused service and was even before that difficult to handle.

I have to choose from this model and Nokia 6510. I take Alcatel, because it is cheap, but I liked it instantly. I am the Nokia fan, previously have 5110 and 3330.

The slow menus is not a problem. It is just to prevent us from tunnel syndrome :-).

The phone at all is very comfortable and cost its price to every cent spending.

I was pleased at first with the size but that's about it. It has a cheap finish, slow menus, and worst of all the battery life's kaput. When writing texts the phone cuts out and I loose everything, this happens so often now I've given up and chosen a Motorola V60i. Hope that will keep me happy for a while.

This Alcatel One Touch 511 is one of the best phones I ever had. Very compact and light, so you can carry it around in your front pocket without even feeling it. Buttons are great, made of hi-qual plastic and very responsive to touch. Overall, no "fragile" feeling as with 501/701 series. Menu is intuitive and well organized. Big memory, but doesn't store your messages in it! If you want to store more than 20/30 messages you have to move them into the "my canned" folder that IS located in phone memory.

Sounds are great, but I have trouble finding a web site that supports sending alcatel polyphonics. Reception great, sound is best so far on mobiles.

Satisfied.

Overall, the Alcatel One Touch is a good phone for the stylish, but not for hard work. Battery lasts 2.5 days with light use and charge time is fairly quick (3 hours for full charge).

Buttons are easy to press and menus are easy and straight forward. Very light weight phone (75 gm) and you can buy an SMS keyboard for quick sms's.

Signal reception on my Alcatel One Touch 511 is good, voice clear. Probably the best phone in its category. Immense features packed in just 75 gms. Handsfree options is just great

Ringtones are not audible in a crowd. So I have to keep it in vibration_ringtone mode. Still not able to experience the FM radio due to non availability of headset
