The company's mobiles don't hit the headlines and they don't have ‘wow' factor high-end features. But generally they do a solid job for a solid price, and sometimes they really surprise.

For example, the last Sagem mobile I looked at, the my150X, could be had for as little as £10 and I reckoned it was a great mobile for anyone wanting a small handset for just making calls and a bit of texting.

This latest model, the tri-band my511X is a tad more upmarket, and it'll cost you all of £50 SIM-free from Argos and Woolworths online, both with an Orange PAYG SIM. As I wrote, the Woolworths deal was the better one as this is a price reduction from £70 and includes a 512MB microSD card.

This isn't, then, a real cheapo-cheapo phone and for that price, even on PAYG, you have the right to expect some reasonably good features. I'll come to the features in a bit, but first, let's consider those other all-important factors - look and feel, and usability.
