Menus Calls / Contacts Messaging  

The O2 is similar to most phones when it comes to calling features. With the dialpad exposed, start typing a number and if it is stored in your contacts, it will pop up on the screen. This means you can skip dialing the entire number if you want. Once a contact or contacts comes up on the screen, just scroll down to the one you want. Selecting a number opens the contact. Here, you call call or message the contact.

In either landscape or portrait mode, the green send key opens up a list of all calls. You can filter them by tabbing sideways to see missed calls, dialed calls, etc. In-call options include being able to view call history, initiate a 3-way call, send a message and even record the call.

 

The contacts app is accessible directly from the home screen or the menus. Start typing either numbers or names in the contacts app or the home screen and it will begin to sort through your contacts. You can sync contacts with Helio's servers if you wish, as well as locate your contacts with Buddy Beacon. Each contact holds at least 6 numbers, and I like that you can add email addresses and your friends' IM screen names and MySpace to the contact data. Where's the Facebook, Helio?
