If you ever search for mobile phones online just by typing the word ‘mobiles’ into a search engine, you will probably find this particular website popping up somewhere near the beginning. With a domain name like this, you are certain to come across it sooner rather than later!
So let us see whether Mobiles lives up to its name shall we?
How do I find the website?
The website is viewable if you go to www.mobiles.co.uk.
What sections are available on the site?
Well for starters there is a phone finder in the top left of the site underneath the heading. This is a great and fast way to get straight to what you want.
If you would prefer to have a proper look round though, you can do that by using the navigation buttons along the left of the site. You can look at the available mobile phones by type, network or make, and you can also look them up by the Pay As You Go ones only. It all depends on what you need to find.
Does it have plenty of contracts on offer?
All the usual contracts are available on a monthly basis here. Twelve months is the shortest length of contract you can have, whereas there are longer ones on offer as well. This site also offers free gifts with many of its contract phones, so that can affect the length of contract you have to sign up for. For example a free laptop will generally mean a longer contract tie in time than a free headset.
The Pay As You Go deals are good too. You tend to find some simple and basic phones here as well as some more advanced models. Watch out for the freebies that come with some of your top ups on these models, such as free minutes or texts each time.
What networks are they geared up for?
Vodafone, 3, Orange and O2 are all here, as is T-Mobile. These were the only networks available and listed in that section when we reviewed the website.
Are there a lot of different mobile phones on offer? Do they provide a lot of information about each one?
No matter what type or style of mobile phone you want, you should be able to find something ideal on this website. They have so many different mobile phones here on both types of plan that you won’t come away disappointed.
The basic listings give you a brief insight into the phone itself to begin with. You will get a few basic sentences and then it trails off into a ‘dot dot dot’ so you have to click on it to find out more! The price is given though, as is the picture of the phone, albeit a small one.
Once you go through to the actual page they have set up for each and every phone, you can find out more information. Be sure to click the link under the picture that says ‘more images’, because you will see more appear to the right of the picture that is already there. Hover your mouse over them to see them much larger than they are now.
There are a variety of headings along the top of that section of the page that will give you more details too. The features and dimensions are included here, as is the more in depth description of the phone itself.
Mobiles.co.uk also gives each and every mobile it offers a rating out of a hundred per cent. Click on the rating tab at the top of the page to find out how popular the phone you have chosen really is! This is their opinion of course but it does reveal how good they think it is, which can help you in choosing it.
How easy is it to order a new mobile phone online?
It is very easy indeed – there is a buy it now button provided next to the picture of every phone on the site. This results in the item being popped into your basket so you can see if anything else has been included too. On some Pay As You Go deals a certain amount of credit has to be added when you buy the phone, usually £10. This will appear in your basket if relevant.
In conclusion
The Mobiles website is a great place to go to regardless of what you need in the mobile phone department. Do you want to change now? Make a beeline for their website and do just that!
