Siemens A55

My first mobile phone had a transparent cover moulded to it with a strap attached and was carried on my wrist. This was necessary since it was too large to fit into a handbag comfortably, let alone a pocket. In those pre-dooyoo days I would have reviewed it if the site existed. Nowdays mobile phones have such advanced technology built in that to date I have felt too overwhelmed by others' technologically knowledgeable ops to attempt it. Recent conversations have re-assured me at last that I am not the only soul who wants a phone with which I can make and receive calls and, at a pinch, text. I don't want to take ...  Read the complete review

When I was busy trawling the mobile phone shops around Christmas, one thing that became apparent is that most stores were happy to recommend the Siemens A55. Now, this might just sound like good sales tactics - it it wasn't for the fact that this is also one of the cheapest phones on the market. It is also a great solid, functional little phone. So what's the catch then - cheap and good - can't be true? Features: Alarm clock Polyphonic ring tones and composer WAP Cool little logos, Variety of fun (and addictive- be warned) games EMS ...  Read the complete review

Not the most trendy of phones admittedly but no to be excluded from choice. This was one of my first mobile phones and it is quite lightweight/small in comparison to most phones, but then again it is very basic with no camera, basic ringtones and literally the ability to call out, however, when I bought this 5 years ago it was a mere £39 but the price tag is likely to have decreased further since making it a bargain buy. It comes in red or blue and is very easy to use especially it you get confused by all the extras and buttons that come with most newer phones. It has a fairly lengthy battery life of around a week (while mine did anyway). This phone is an ideal phone for ...  Read the complete review

I've been using this phone for nearly two years now, with no problems. I'm thinking of buying another one for my wife. I don't need the fancy gidgets and gadgets of the fancier -- and pricier-- phones that the kids love. I don't need a melodic ring-tone (the ones that are standard on the A55 offer plenty of choice for me) and I don't need a fancy screen. This is your basic model -- standard shift, with no air-conditioning or power-windows or central locking. It's very easy to use. I learned how to use it without reference to the manual-- it's that intuitive. I've only used a heavy old Nokia and a Motorola fliptop before this. This one is easier to use than either ...  Read the complete review

I had this phone sometime ago, If someone want to have phone for basic use, it is very good. But if someone like the teenagers who like to use thier mobiles to do lots of chatting then, it is not very impressive in this manner as typing the words is pretty tricky and difficult. Though its battery power has amazed me which is the best i ever had on any of my mobile phone, also it is probably one of the best ones which has a pretty good alarm which actually does wake you up. It is stylish and not at all expensive, it lack lots of ringing tunes but that can be sorted out. Oh yes..........one more thing, my man loved it for its video ...  Read the complete review
