Review: January 2003
	Rating:  In a nutshell: Flip phone with an integrated digital camera.   Â

The Sharp GX10 mobile phone was one of the first camera phones and includes an integrated digital camera with 110,000 pixels, digital zoom and storage for up to 80 pictures. Whilst the GX1 features a high quality TFT display, it suffers from having a poor quality camera and no easy way of transferring pictures from the phone to a PC. It is also an unreliable phone. Also consider the newer Sharp GX10i which has triband capability and improved camera functions.

• WAP, GPRS
