Small Siemens Phone

Advantages: cheap, small, easy to use,
Disadvantages: not many tones

...This is not my mobile phone as I have a Nokia 3310. This is my dad's mobile, so thought I would write about it. He did not want a really expensive phone, so decided to look around and see what he could find. He saw the Siemens M35i for £69.99, so he dicided to buy that. It's a small, grey phone and not at all bulky. It has a built in arial so the signal is really good on it. You can get this phone in other colours too like yellow, but he prefered the grey one. It is waterproof and shock proof, so if you dropped it by accident, it would not break. There is an address book to store up to 100 people's name and telephone number. You can also play games too. There are 4 to choose from. These are:- Wayout Minesweeper Reversi Qyattropolli I can not see what these games are though as I said it is not my phone so not played...

Siemens - Camera or phone?

Advantages: Modern look, Various camera features, 18mb internal memory
Disadvantages: Bulky, camera quality not as good as it could be

...Despite coming across many negative reviews of this phone, I decided to buy this phone for £49.99 off the Virgin website. I was a first time user of Siemens phone when I first bought this, so I was taking a risk. Siemens have made claims that the SF65 model is 100% camera, as well as 100% phone... I decided to buy this mainly because of the rather unique design - it can rotate 180 degrees to turn into a camera. The polar white finish on the cover has a modern minimalistic effect which was received by compliments from other people. Also, I think this phone will be beneficial for anyone who wants a decent camera phone at the cheap price of £49.99 with £10 airtime voucher. To start with I had trouble putting the battery in and inserting my old SIM card as it can be quite fiddly. It should also be noted that the battery is...

Siemens C45 - A good phone

Advantages: Loads - see op.
Disadvantages: None.

...“Be inspired” – Quite a clever little slogan Siemens use for their phones, but I think it is very well put. They have chosen a great snappy little title and it suits their phones very well. After my unfortunate encounter with the Trium Mars (read my op) I decided after one and half years to get a new phone! The Trium was great but it was very boring and it was just basically crap. So there I was in The Link browsing around – I kind of had the idea of what I wanted, the Siemens C45 but I wasn’t to sure. In the window there was this big offer - The Nokia 3310 with £50 worth of free accessories and £25 calling time – the accessories were crap and I only wanted a new phone so I could put my Sim card in it. So I went for the Siemens… This phone is great. I love it so far and the possibilities...

Siemens M35 - the phone for me

Advantages: Phone is easy to use
Disadvantages: Slow internet facility

...I bought my Siemens M35 phone about a year ago. I was attracted mainly by its low price and sleek finish. The BASICS The phone is part black, part grey, and looks good due to its curvy shape. In terms of size, it is about 4.5cm wide and 12cm long, and weighs about 110g. It is therefore quite a nicely sized phone - ideal for slipping in your pocket. A fully charged battery can provide a standby time of between 50 and 180 hours, and a talk time of between 90 and 300 minutes. RANGE OF FEATURES Text-messaging is relatively easy thanks to a built-in dictionary which predicts words as you write. Words can also be entered manually. This is necessary when a word is incorrectly formulated by the phone's built-in dictionary. In addition to the main uses, the phone has internet access and an e-mail facility. It also has four games...

C35i Siemens Phone

Advantages: Lightweight, ease of use
Disadvantages: doesn't like water

...For Christmas my husband bought me a new mobile phone. A Siemens C35i, it is very light and small compared to my old phone a Philips Diga. The C35i display has icons for Network signal, Battery Charge, date and time using the 24-hour clock, and your network provider, mine is BT Cellnet. You have two selector buttons, which correspond to options on the display. The book icon allows you to view your address book and if you double click on it the V.I.P. address book is viewed (you can not double into your V.I.P address book when sending messages, which is quite annoying). The Green Phone icon allows you to pick up calls etc… and the Red phone icon allows you to reject calls and to go back while using the menu bars, a long press of the Red phone button turns the phone off. Underneath these are all the numbers. The C35i has...

Siemens A55 - A very functional mobile phone

Advantages: Easy to use; Light; Small; Quick loading times; Performs the basic well and efficiently; Durable
Disadvantages: Old; Does not have an in-built camera

...remember, once even from the 2nd floor to the ground floor, and yet the phone always emerges "victorious", unscathed from the "sky-dive". As for my gripes about the phone, the main ones would probably be that it's an incredibly old phone (in accordance to IT-age) and does not have an in-built camera, which has become a necessity rather than a luxury in today's world. If you find that you can live with the downsides and choose to use the Siemens A55, I would imagine you being highly satisfied with the simplicity of the phone, a phone which functions just as well and as comprehensively as a real phone should....

Review -The Apple iPhone 3GS - An iPhone Upgrade?

Advantages: Upgraded sofware and Hardware, better camera
Disadvantages: Appearance hasn't changed, Expensive

... Apple iPhone 3GS - An iPhone Upgrade Now I?ve heard people saying ?what is the point of Apple releasing an new iPhone when it looks exactly like the old one!? and to be honest they may have a point... If it ain?t broke, don?t fix it - right? Well no actually, while there may be very few external changes, inside it?s a different story. The 3GS has a larger CPU, more storage space, new internal compass and Apple have improved the optics for the new iPhone?s camera. These modifications coincide neatly with a leap forward in the iPhone?s system software, the release of the iPhone OS 3.0 ? which will allow features including copy and paste, tethering, landscape keyboard options for more applications and a version of Spotlight, designed specifically for the iPhone. Appearance As I have already mentioned, in terms...

The best iPod / Phone!

Advantages: unbelivably sexy and beautiful, wonderful internet and video / music
Disadvantages: needs a couple of firmware updates to become the perfect phone

...Given the rather briefness of the other iPhone reviews on Ciao, and given I've actually GOT one, I thought I'd do a proper review prior to the iPhone being launched in the UK. Some history: Apple have been making computers since the 1970's and were the first people to launch what we now call a home computer with the Apple II microcomputer in 1977. Since then, they have been at the front of design and innovation, despite having a few failures along the way, such as the Apple Newton in the 1990's. Apple have recently had two turnarounds, the first being the launch of the iMac in 1998 (basically a portable TV size computer with screen, but with funky colours and all in one design) and the other in 2001 when Apple launched the iPod... The rest, as they say, is history! iPhone history: During late 2006, rumours were...

Siemens A60 - My phone for 2 years...

Advantages: A well built, reliable, cheap phone with a reasonable set of features
Disadvantages: Quite an embarrassment to be seen with.

...I've had this phone for two years. It was my first phone, and apart from an old Nokia I use sometimes, it's my only phone. I'm obviously very happy with it. My parents bought me it as an entry level phone for about £50-£60.00 with Orange Pay as you go. Good points Sturdy phone. I've had it for two years and dropped it so many times. It's survived everything. It even survived a swim in the bath - it kept worryingly overheating for over a week afterwards, and I thought it would not last. It did though. Battery life remains excellent. Over 2 years since I got it, it's still on its original battery, and still holds a charge for about 3-4 days (with little use) or about 2 days of heavy use (I'm approximating!). Reception is great, the phone usually has full signal strength. On a trip to Wales where most other phones couldn...

The iPhone 3GS is a rare thing; a product that beats the hype!

Advantages: Incredibly easy to use with huge selection of quality dowloadable apps. Almost perfect...
Disadvantages: Battery life it at best acceptable

...A couple of months ago I bought an Apple iPhone 3GS 16Gb. It is my first iPhone, and also my first smart phone. I was tempted by the original iPhone and the iPhone 3G, but was put out by some key feature omissions, notably lack of MMS and voice dialling. The iPhone is immaculately presented in a surprisingly small, well designed box. The contents comprise the iPhone, wired headphones with microphone, a short USB charging cable and a charger. The chunky instruction manual that seems to come with every other phone on the market is notably absent; there is just a concise quick start leaflet. As always with an Apple product, EVERYTHING is meticulously designed to the same high standard. The charger is very discrete and is no bigger then a standard 13amp plug, the USB cable has incredibly small connectors at either end...
