Advantages: Small and lightweight with a great loud-speaker Disadvantages: Sometimes slow.
...phone is similar to the Siemens A65 except this one DOESN'T have a camera attachment and CANNOT take photos -- that should clear a few complications up for some people.
This phone is very lightweight which, for me, caused me to drop it more than any other phone -- although this happens less and less with more and more use.
It's got a Colour Screen, Polyphonic Ringtones, Games, Wallpapers and can accommodate some types of picture, none real -- all ... ...phone some colours which I consider to be real enough, as in not too fake.
The polyphonic ringtones can seem a little strange at first but you may find them acceptable after a while.
Games wise, it comes with two pre-loaded games, one called 'Stack Attack' and the other called 'Magic Picture'. In Stack Attack you're a warehouse worker in a small warehouse and you have to push coloured boxes around to make a group of three or more which then vanish.

Advantages: Cheap, colour screen, lightweight and easy to press buttons Disadvantages: No frills whatever
I used to own a Siemens A55, it was ok... Orange screen, *games*, internet, polyphonic ringtones and so on. Though unfortunately it died.
So I went out to the orange shop and bought the cheapest phone I could which so happened to be the A62 for just under £20. It looks nice, is pretty small and weighs next to nothing! Done deal
The phone's features are what you would expect for the price. A colour sreen buttons which work and some cheap games including ... ...you move evade and position falling blocks. It provides minimal excitement at the lowest of times though!
The phone contains some preloaded cartoon pictures and animations as a wallpaper or screensaver, they aren't much to brag about but certainly colour the phone up a bit!
The phone is capable of internet (downloading ringtones and such) though I haven't personnaly used this function. It contains a fair few poly/monophonic ringtones, some more ...

Quick review of Siemens A62
This looks and seems a lovely little phone - but it isn't! It fails after about a year: I have had two of them and the same thing happened with both, after the same length of time - switch on, get blue screen for about 2 seconds, then a buzz, then nothing. I have on both occasions lost much important info. Local Moby shop say this happens with phones of all makes, but I know nobody that it has happened to. I am buying other makes in future! ...

Advantages: light and compact Disadvantages: doesn't have any of the up to date usage abilities
I must say that I use this phone right now. I am not happy with it as it's not got any of the things any of the up to date phones have. it's games are minimum, however it is alright as a child's first phone. I would recommend this to parents that want to buy their children a first phone just to see if the child can look after a phone and use it properly. although it's networks work really well (orange). The phone is small and compact and you can ...
