To cut a long story short, i ended up buying this phone for my son, although i wasn't as convinced as he would have liked me to be, as to how useful this would be.
As it was to be his first mobile phone, and even though he is a bit of a whizz kid when it comes down to buttons and options, i thought an "easy to use" phone would be best.
Simple to use doesn't necessarily mean that it's cheap or lacking options...in this case, simple just means that even I would be capable to work out how to use it! Well, i am blond... lol! pfff...
We did look around a while (at least one whole week! lol) before choosing the Siemens A65. We found it attractive in every way.
~~ It's a nice looking phone, shiny silver all over, with a wide screen. The colours and general quality of the screen are bright and clear.

~~ it has a clip on camera, which, unfortunately, we bought separately. Although the quality of the photos are not that of a numeric camera, it's good enough for the fun uses this one's going to be used for.
So there goes my boy with his new toy... very happy with himself.
Within the evening, he'd already figured it out... he'd got the photo he wanted on his screen (himself in his rugby gear), his favorite song on the alarm to be woken up to <i will survive> (very optimist lad), he'd tested the microphone and recorded a few silly sounds to have a giggle with his brother, ...no, i won't repeat them here...
It did take a good week to get his line working, but that was not the phones fault! Once that going, he tested out the MMS and SMS, which he found very simple and rather fast to use. The phone does have a good reception, even in our rural and hilly country-side!

It's been a year now since we bought it, and still no regrets. It does hold the battery charge well, and still recharges within the two hours expected when it was new.
Knowing my son, always in competition with his school mates, and what they may have, i was expecting him to ask for another phone, well no, he's still satisfied with this one, which he uses a lot more than i would have thought he would!
So basically, i would recommend it as an "easy to use" phone, also because it's cheap and seems rather solid (even between the hands of my son!). And when i say cheap, you can actually find this one much cheaper than what we paid for it... £20 without the SIM card..... that is pretty dirt cheap!
Advantages: Small, light. Potential as a starter phone. Disadvantages: A bit slow, getting dated.
...she surprised me with a Siemens A65 for Christmas, I had hoped to purchase my own phone for the new tax year. It's about a third of the size of the Motorola and fits comfortably into a shirt or jacket pocket.
WHAT DO YOU GET?
Mine arrived in a large red box about 2"x 6"x 10". Rather larger than the phone, I wonder why. Mine was carrying the Virgin logo (my choice of network provider - you can choose several). The box said made in China.
The box ... ...ask questions.
3. The Siemens Mobile manual is produced by Siemens. This goes into a lot more technical detail with a description of the phone its parts & set up. The end section contains a detailed index, which is useful for reference and a menu tree. There is also some interesting data on operations and battery times and recharging. THE PHONE
Mine came coloured red. I found the operation to switch on the phone rather to complex involving 2 operations; ...

Advantages: Small, lightweight, good size colour screen, good deal on Virgin at moment with extra airtime Disadvantages: Bit slow for each function to load (or maybe I'm just impatient)
Could be that I am not so good with mobiles - only ever owned two (a Panasonic G520 and Nokia 8310 - power button broke) but I found it a bit difficult to get going with this A65. However my eight year old is finding it quite easy to navigate! Am now getting the hang of things and enjoy using the phone. It is WAP enabled and tri band, has predictive text and downloadable games (Stack Attack and Magic Picture are included one is a Sonic type game ... ...to get the picture to appear - I may lose the phone a the kids love these games and think it is a mini playstation!).
The ringtone choices are quite boring and limited but you can download others. The sound quality is very clear. The colour screen is a good size and clear also ( a bit of a novelty for me anyway as I've never had a colour screen before). There are a few limited pictures for wall paper/screensavers and picture messages, not very exciting ...

Advantages: very cheap Disadvantages: not a good phone
The siemens A65 is a very basic phone it is one that you really dont want to have.Its the type of phone that you would give to someone at christmas or for a birthday if you dont really like them but have to buy them a present.
LOOK
The look of the phone is not that bad not to sure if you can get them in different colours but the one i had was red,with a bit of grey on there as well.
FEEL
It was not to bad a feel it is quite small and fits in ... ...buttons.Small enough to fit into your pocket ok.
SCREEN
The screen size is not that bad about 1 1/2 inches each way maybe a bit smaller.Very small if you look at some of the new phones around today.
The bad thing or should i say one of the bad things about this phone is the display.It is very very bad it is not at all clear it just looks like a cheap effort.
THE PHONE OVERVIEW
It has internet but will cost you a arm and a leg to use plus its ...

Advantages: Long battery life and good value for money Disadvantages: Menues need a bit to get used to
...text messages. Nothing fancy. The Siemens A65 does its job but not really more than this. It took me a while to get used to the menues. An advantage is that you can use the number keys if you know exactly where you want to go. The structuring is sometimes not really intuitive. Games and internet in the same menue for example, while the decision if you want to use GPRS is in Setup->Connectivity and not in the Surf and Fun section. All capital writing ... ...capital, then typing the first letter, then switching to all letters capital.
Opening of some menues takes a long time and I don't think I am too impatient with this.
Battery life on the other hand is quite good. The battery charges in about 1 hour and my phone has a standby time of about 1 week with light use (about 20 minutes talking and 10-20 texts).
I tried to find out about a fascia but I couldn't find one. The screen however seems to be ...

Advantages: Cheap Disadvantages: Turns off sometimes
I received this phone a couple months ago I paid 30 pounds at a retail store, which gave me 10 pounds on my credit and a 20 pound voucher phone card on top of that. The phone works as it is suppose to but once in awhile it turns off on me. There isn't much choice for background images or ring tones but that shouldn't matter much because you could download extras. The phone is somewhat small, probably average but is attractive also. The battery life ...

Reviews which might be of interest for "Siemens A65"
Advantages: Small and lightweight with a great loud-speaker Disadvantages: Sometimes slow.
I've had this phone for about 5 months now and feel ready to review it.
Well to start with I got it free from a mobile network after I won a raffle to spend a day with a well known mobile network.
This phone is similar to the SiemensA65 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 cartoon/animation ones.
The colour screen is standard, gives the phone some colours which I consider to be real enough, as in not too fake.
The polyphonic ringtones can seem ...

Advantages: Robust Disadvantages: slow to switch on-key lock is unreliable
I have used all 3 phones in the Siemens series the A65,A60 and the A31. Also the old C35.
I found the A60 the easiest to use it is slightly larger than the A65 and the A31. The charger and battery is compatable with the A65. I found the A60 to be more robust than other phones having dropped it a few times it does not seem to damage easily like other phones. It recharges in about 2 hours. The alarm clock is good and works automaticaly without haveing to leave the phone switched on. The phone book is quite handy , you can save numbers that have just called you. Also there is a messaging facility that tells you if you have missed a call.
The games are quite good Stack attack is quite addictive.
There is an internet facility but I found it quite difficult to use.
A bit slow and also a bit expensive for the amount of information ...

Advantages: Easier to use than SL55 Disadvantages: A lot
What can I say about this phone? I bought one for myself just before Christmas because I had always wanted the SL55 but felt it was too small and dinky to press buttons etc. This larger version of that phone is a lot easier to use due to a larger screen and larger buttons on the keypad.
It also incorporates a camera capable of taking still images or 30 second video clips. It's not a bad camera, but there are better ones out there if you take the time to look around.
Other features include a sound recorder, so that you can record songs and noises and set them as ringtones, and the other usuals, calculator, stopwatch, alarm clock etc.
The Siemens SL65 comes standard with three games, which are: Bubble Boost (a platform game a bit like rayman), Golf Pro 3D and Siemens Rally all of which can be quite addictive if you start playing ...

Nothing is as easy as making a phone call. At least when you are using the Siemens A65. Its ergonomic design and concise menu control make this phone the perfect companion for all those, who are looking for simple and easy, yet multifunctional mobile communication.Simplicity is the key to operating this modern mobile. With a 4-way navigation key, all functions of this contemporary phone can be easily accessed. Like the preinstalled games and applications for example. In addition the 4000 color display of the Siemens A65 makes multimedia action a real pleasure. Polyphonic sounds and ringtones complete the entertainment experience provided by this mobile companion.A clearly structured keypad and the ergonomic design of the phone provide for sheer effortless communication. With only 75 grams, the A65 is a true lightweight. A lightweight that bears a lot power inside, though: 250 hours of standby time and 5 hours of continuous talk-time guarantee for unlimited fun.The A65 is a true beauty among modern mobiles. And by adding the optional QuickPic camera with integrated flash, this easy-to-use handset becomes a fully functional MMS-phone. To sum up the wide range of features, Triband technology lets you stay connected wherever you are.Other useful accessories for the Siemens A65 include a portable Car Kit, a choice of headsets, stylish carrying cases as well as data cables and a range of charging devices.
