Advantages: its small and light

Disadvantages: not much the phone can do

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 the hand well.It is also quite light with plastic feeling 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 rubbish.
It has text message and phone book and all the basic stuff a phone should have.Its battery life is pretty good but thats about it.

EASE OF USE

Seams this phone is very basic you would think that it would be very easy to use well think again.Unless it is me being a wally i borrowed this phone once because my phone was being replaced so i was without a phone and needed one for work.When i was at work i took every chance to mess about with the phone as you do (when no one was about)and for the life of me couldnt work it out.I knew how to make calls and the text bit (that took me so time to work out)but that was it.I found the phone very hard to work out.

CONCLUSION
I would recomend you stay well clear from this phone ,It is cheap i paid £29.00 from the virgin website which included £10.00 airtime.Unfortunatly the price of the phone says it all really a very basic phone for a basic price.
