Siemens Stains

Advantages: Small, light
Disadvantages: plasticcy, not intuitive

...My Savvy died on me beep beep it went and waved goodbye with it’s little pixilated hand, it’s enough to bring a tear to my eye…. Actually the charger was broken and the nice lady at the mobile phone shop is fixing for me right now, woe betide them if they don’t get it right, I’ll be writing a stiff review and then they’ll be sorry, Consumer Power!!! (Actually since they took the phone and since I wrote this first paragraph I got a phone call, it seems there is a problem with the repair, I can already feel my bile rising…..) So to prove just how nice the lady was she gave me a Siemens C25 to love in the place of my Savvy, I wasn’t actually too impressed to be honest, it looked boxy and a bit plastic, not as nice as my blue Savvy. But it was very light and to be honest its not actually...

Review of Siemens C25

Fujitsu/Siemens Li2727

Advantages: Good specs, portable, cheap
Disadvantages: Bad customer service

...I recently went on a search for a good quality Laptop and found this one in Comet. It looked quite good and seemed to have everything I wanrted. Processor is a Intel dual core !.73 Ghz It boasts a good 2GB of DDR2 Ram 160 GB Hard drive 15.4 in Screen DVD+/- RW drive My opinion. I came home with my Laptop and unpacked it all, went through the associated paperwork and set it up, as I already have a Desktop this was easy. When you first start it prompts you to create Recovery disks, I started the software to do this and all seemed well until almost at the end of the first disk it came up with a message saying write error. I thought that maybe it was a bad disk and tried again, same outcome. I phoned comet to ask for asssistance and was told to phone Fijitsu/ siemens, so I did I was told it was a software problem and they...

My love affair with the Siemen?s SL55

Advantages: Stylish, compact, packed with features.
Disadvantages: Texting can be a little difficult at first.

...?I Will Fly you to the moon and back if you?ll be, if you?ll be my baby?. My dirty old Nokia 3310 was past its sell-by-date years ago so I have to admit to getting ridiculously over excited at the prospect of a new phone. So many decisions to be made. Colour, polyphonic ringtones, games, and camera, one of those flip clamshell types or a standard Nokia style? Given my self-imposed budget of £60 surely I had given myself little leeway regarding the type of phone I could purchase? Never underestimate the dididave obsession with bargain hunting. It is rare that I pay full price for anything and as such revel in the underground culture that is the boot sale, charity shop and online auction world. Trawling through the Internet back alleys in search of my next gadget I came across the Siemen?s SL55. This little beauty retails...

Fujitsu Siemens AMILO Xi 2528

Advantages: very fast, very cheap
Disadvantages: could look better

...Fujitsu Siemens AMILO Xi 2528 This is the Fujitsu Siemens AMILO Xi 2528. It is a laptop designed for entertainment purposes whilst still being very cheap in price. Fujitsu Siemens are well known for their cheap laptops, and are also quite well known for making basic laptops and therefore don?t really have the best reputation in the market. However that is all changing now, instead of sticking to the mold of cheap basic laptops, there branching out and are starting to make ultra portable laptops that compete with sonys, and dells whilst being a lot cheaper too. They are now also making entertainment laptops with great specifications and features that come in at just a fraction of the price of some of its competitors and the AMILO Xi 2528 is one of these. The installed ram on this laptop is great, it has a massive 3gb which is...

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...

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...

Review of Siemens M35i

Siemens Speak into my Ear

Advantages: It is just a phone
Disadvantages: It is just a phone

...Pity the poor shop assistant who gets to serve me an electrical goods store, I know exactly what I want and exactly how much I want to pay for it, and if you don't try to sweeten the offer then I walk. Anyway down to phones about 18 months ago my old Phillips brick that cost me a tenner died horribly and unexpectedly. Good taste prevents me from disclosing the full details surrounding its death, but the end result was I needed a new phone. I wandered pseudo aimlessly around quite a few mobile shops, but I had already decided upon the Siemens A50 cause it was the cheapest, and it wasn't a Samsung (I just thing that Siemens is a much better name, I am putting my Siemens next to my ear ho ho ho). Anyway the shop assistant tried to up sell me to one with a colour screen "how does that improve the phones abilities I asked", how about...

Review of Siemens A50

Mmm...Siemens

Advantages: Bluetooth, Java, Nice Camera
Disadvantages: 256 Colour Screen

...with thousands of others have a wap site with news/weather and all the other things the BBC are good for. Battery Life (as claimed by Siemens): 12 Days Standby 360 mins of Talktime These figures will vary WILDLY. Camera: Attachable and at a cost of ~£50 if not included with the phone already. Takes decent pictures at a resolution of 640*480 or small ones at a resolution of 160*120. The pictures will look horrendous on the phone but will look reasonable on a PC. The little shots can be used to indicate who's phoning you by flashing up their mugshot when they call. Options for high or low quality setting is included. There is no on screen viewfinder so you have to rely on the optical viewfinder on the actual add-on camera which i've noticed can be off a little sometimes. Also the camera has a flash which is a first for mobile phones...

Review of Siemens S55

Siemens SX1

Advantages: Great phone that incorperates many things into one
Disadvantages: sometimes hangs and in the camera mode

...The Siemens SX1 is newest phone bought out by Siemens. I will start by telling you what you get with the phone. You get your usual adapter that comnes with all phones, and the battery, plus about 5 different manuals in 5 languages. in addition these usualls you also earphones that are also the handsfree, a USB cable to link your SX1 with your computer, and a CD ROM with extra games, polyphonic tunes, pictures, screen savers and software for moving files to and from the phone. the conection for the adapter and handsfree are all the same as recent siemens phones which i have used on the M55, and i know that the S55 SL55, also have the same conection. Before starting the phone needs to be charged, which takes about 3hrs. Then you are ready to go. As with all phones it has the text message with the predictive T9 format. The unique...

Siemens C45 - Ageless Mobile?

Advantages: Small comfortable to use, robust, ageless design.
Disadvantages: Nothing to warrent mentioning here

...The Siemens C45 is getting a bit long in the tooth as far as mobile phone technology is concerned, but seeing that my wife and I have had over 3 years of trouble free service out of two C45s, I thought I would do a review. In my view Siemens are to be congratulated on this phone. Before I got the C45, I had one of the early pay-as-you-go vodaphones from Tesco - remember those? Anyway, one day I was getting into the car and didn't notice that I'd dropped my phone on the road and reversed over it. It still worked OK but the slot to plug the charger in was completely smashed. So a new phone it had to be and off I went to the Vodaphone shop in Cardiff. Because I was not a heavy user, I would stay with pay-as-you-go and this little neat little C45 measuring 12 X 5cms caught my eye for £75 and with a little bit of bartering (I...
