 storage space, are expandable via Micro SD Card. Also, the E250 is made with a ARM9-230 MHz processor, allowing for very fast processing. It cannot perform multitasking, and the media player cannot be minimized. However, the radio can be used whilst performing other tasks. The phone also does not support java 3D, and does allow games to be uploaded to the phone via cable and bluetooth (on some models you need to use the code: *#JAVATEST#). Though the sound from the loud speaker is not that impressive, the sound in the earphones is great.

Design

The design is very similar to the D900 (with the exception of the MENU key, which is larger). The phone is built as a slide-out phone, where the TALK, END, MENU and directional pad are on the top half. The bottom half, which slides out, holds the number keys. This classic modern phone is available in black, silver, pink, lilac and in crystal.
