[theultimatenik2]

[cheesypeesy2]

Great if you're on a tight budget, great value for money. Shame there is no wifi, would be much quicker internet

[MsSweetiePiexxx]

android?

[TheChrislip]

[MissieLouise]

I bought it for £35 I got a good deal!



[tomcollins26070]

[bonesfan272]

[pirahnaking685]

Black berry, iphone, rio presuming u hav a mac (key board) what job do u have!!!

[james197435]

i don t have the rio anymore its rubbish i now have a samsung wave gts5250 it has wi-fi and its better then the rio don t waste u r money on it

[loonylovegood107]

@james197435 what makes it so bad?

[MissBKI]

this phone is rrubish i have it and its crap so am getting a BB The phone i was gonna get in the first place lookst ma b deciving

[Emelineward]

the orange rio 2 has 3g and the build of the phone is excellent with much better buttons and has 3mp camera, it costs around 70 quid

[Emelineward]

the rio is good ,i have it in black.got it for just under 30 quid as i used my phone fund as a discount,otherwise its 35 quid in the orange shop plus you have to top up a tenner.i think its a good phone,suitable for anybody,but especially for those who want a phone that looks like a blackberry,ive had several blackberries and as lovely as they were i had to charge them everyday which was frustrating.get the orange rio if your on a tight budget.though i think the orange rio 2 looks much better

[mechreports1]

meh this phone is ok to be fair but really i dont think its worth that amount of cash i mean the keypad is good but its only got gprs and its not very good i would much rather have the lg optimus gt540 for £60 and is alot better as it has gprs wifi and 3g and it has an android os so ima upgrade as soon as i have the money but really guys this phone is not worth the money i owned this phone for 6 months now...

[MultiPrincessgold]

go to 3:21 " oh its touchscree" he didnt know loooooooooool : D

[MultiPrincessgold]

[prettygirl1039]

[1rohima]

ive got one and its brilliant, not any difference to blackberry, bb msg gives blackberry that xtra selling point however rio has instant messenger.

the rio is brill

[smallanimals4us]

my friend got her pink rio which aparently costs more for £80..No joke she got it as soon as it came out on the saturday! xxx then she was so mad when i told i got mine for £34 on the dolphine plan and £10 top up :))

It might just be me but i think the rio looks so much nicer than the ugly blackberry , apaernt from the fact that its like £100 more expensive! Instant messager , dont you mean msn? coz at the shop it said it had instant messaging! xx

[TheBrainwashable55]

Anyone who has a rio! How do you change the alarm volume? the option isnt under "alarm"

[likle100]

i brought this phone yesterday and it said it has £10 free credit in the sim but i dont have it, does anyone know how to fix this?

[1hellofriends]

does anyone know how to fix msn? it wont let me go on it?

[likle100]

@1hellofriends try to ring customer service, thats what i did when i had that problem and it worked,

[worifeem]

When ever I sent a text it says 'some messages sent fail'... do anyone know how to fix this?

[uzzigunz]

@worifeem hey! either you dont have any credit or you have no signal :L if you live somewhere without any Orange signal, i'd suggest calling Orange :)
