Philips Savvy Reviews

A rugged and reliable phone - but then it spends most of its time switched off until I need to make a call. It does lack enough memory but then why am I keeping stuff in the memory. My grandson says the ring tones are naff, but then am I bothered? I serves me for my basic needs. Would like to find a wind up charger for it tho? But the thought of ...  Read the complete review

(Title to be sung to the opening bars of the Tiny Toons cartoon theme....) The other day I was slouching around in Tesco's (as is my wont) and noticed that they were selling a basic pay-as-you-go mobile (a Philips Trium, I think) for the princely sum of £45. It's not often you get prices like that now that the manufacturers have ...  Read the complete review

I purchaed one of these phones in a very good (read: cheap!) Pay As You Go Sale deal from the Orange Shop sometime ago. It was to replace my damaged Bosch phone which had doen sterling service until the point when the microphone decided to break! I am not a heavy mobile user at all, so my primary concern was price and in this regard the ...  Read the complete review

Everyone else in the class had one...typical scenario. Imagine my joy when I finally got my very own Phillips Savvy registered with Orange. Imagine the shock when my dog ate half the phone on it's first night cos I was stupid enough to leave it on the kitchen worktop... The Savvy is a very popular phone with young people or with someone on ...  Read the complete review

I bought this phone, last Christmas. In fact I bought two. One for myself and one for my then, 15 year old step daughter. The reason I bought them, was because I got them a little cheaper, for buying them with my credit card, at the time. I paid £25 each for them. For a first phone, for my step daughter, I didn't want to spend a ...  Read the complete review

Available in Savvy the set of functionality's (vibrocall, clock and date, alarm clock, calculator, voice dial - is the yet not full list!) would look pertinently not only in telephone middle-end, but also in telephones of a business-class. And price - only 75 dollars that for many users will be a determinative for choice of device. ...  Read the complete review

Like most,i bought a phone because everyone else did and its no longer a pose.I had one when it was cool and in the half brick days with some of those sad guys still having the offending relics hanging of their belts next to the key cluster. I settled for the cozy looking Savvy Two as it was 39,99 all in with charger and five ponds free ...  Read the complete review

I got a Philips Savvy C12 at christmas time on a pay as you go orange deal - after I got sick of BTCellnet messing me about with my contract account. The phone - with connection - and £5 credit cost a whopping £29.99 (not exactly a fortune) and since then (8 months) i have experienced few problems. One thing which is a downside to the ...  Read the complete review

Not worth the money, a very poor phone. - Advantages: Design, Signal Strength, Sound Quality - Disadvantages: Keys, Battery Life, Weak Vibration Motor

I bought the Philips Savvy back in March for £49.99. I bought it in an orange shop on the orange network. With it is also paid £14.99 and got the orange out here pack, which is a pack which composes of an orange bag, £5 worth of credit and 5 text messages a day for the life of the phone. This is worth bying and is definately value for money. ...  Read the complete review

The Phillips Savvy Two has finally conked out after three months use from the packet. First the battery insisted on being charged every three days or so, and then this morning I couldn’t connect to BTCELLENT. I thought that the complimentary five pounds of free calls might have expired after 90 days, regardless if i had used them. ...  Read the complete review

The Philips Savvy is something of a mild cheddar cheese among mobile phones: you can’t go far wrong, but not terribly exciting. I won’t go as far as to say bland, but sexy it isn’t. Having said all that, it does most of what you’d expect from a cellphone, including icons in text messages. You also get some of the ...  Read the complete review

I bought my Phillips Savvy under a year ago on the Virgin network, before that I had an Ericsson PH 388 (One2One0 and a Sagem RC 815(Vodafone). From my experience with different handsets, I can hand on heart inform others that the Phillips Savvy DB is the best phone I have used so far. If I went through in detail about its good ...  Read the complete review

This phone is the phone that most people have owned or will own. It is not as complicated as most mobile phones that are on the market, but it does let you ring people would you believe. Most mobiles all come with games, internet and are basically mobile arcades. Sure games are good to play when you are bored, but to see every ...  Read the complete review

I had this phone for about 4 months on the btcellnet network, until i gave it my mum. Looking back on my time with the savvy I cant say it was a good one, neither a bad one. The phone does its job in been a phone and is other features kept me glued for about an hour. Now that my mum has it she finds it perfect for what she uses it as. ie. a link ...  Read the complete review

(about a yr ago) i bought it because i liked the look and at the time it had a lot of features on it. the phone was at the time rather small, light and had funky options. it had a wide range of features like: vibrator, icons and a lot of ring tones at the time. but like everything time moves ...  Read the complete review

This is a great little phone for those of you who don't need a big fancy Nokia. This has all the features of the Nokias except you can't create your own ringtone or play games. That isn't such a big deal. It cost me £29.99 and you get a lot for your hard earned money. The phone itself is very neat. It is less than 6 inches ...  Read the complete review

A couple of months ago I decided I should join the mobile revolution and decided upon this model. I didn't want to spend loads of money on a phone and this was a snip at £40 with £5 free credit and a free watch included, I also got a hands-off kit and a case at reduced prices, which although I hardly use them, are good quality and good to ...  Read the complete review

I have had my Philips Savvy for a while now, and on the whole I have found that it is a reliable phone. It doesn't have lots of features, but the ones it does are very good. Like a Nokia, it does have a clock and alarm clock, which are very easy to set, and work well. The only fault with the Clock is that it is hard to read, and if ...  Read the complete review

I bought this phone a couple of months ago, in the misguided belief that it was better than my trusty Nokia 5146, which I have had over 2 years. So money in hand I dived into Dixons, not a sensible choice from what I have read, but anyway I handed over the princely sum of £29.99 and walked away with my new Philips Savvy on the orange pay as you go ...  Read the complete review
