Siemens C45

The Siemens C45 is small, functional and brilliantly durable, which in my opinion is why it is one of the best value mobiles available on the market. After trying phones from Motorola and Nokia in the past, neither of those two companies as come anywhere close to the quality of the Siemens C45. ~~~ Vital Statistics ~~~ Phone Band: Dual Antenna: Integrated (in built) Weight: 107 grams Dimensions (L x W x H): 109 x 46 x 23mm Exchangeable Covers: Yes Battery Nickel Battery Stand By Time: 60 - 200 hours Talk Time: 100 - 300 mins This phone is so small and light that you will hardly notice it when ...  Read the complete review

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 opinion 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. ...  Read the complete review

In July 2002 I was searching for an Orange contract phone. After trawling every mobile phone shop in the town I was left with only two choices: the Sony J70e and the Siemens C45e. I currently had a Trium Mars, which I was to retain, and thus had no qualms about following the legions of Nokia fans and going for the predictable 3330e, which was also offered to me in the same shop as the Siemens. I had one main criterion: the phone had to be free. This ruled out a vast number of other phones from other worthy manufacturers, and the Sony was eventually laid by the wayside due to the complicated-looking menu system. I have since found out that this is not a problem with it, ...  Read the complete review

First of all I’d like to say I bought my siemens C45 in October of last year and has never let me down to date. Everywhere I go I drop it, it’s got scratch marks all over and the top doesn’t clip on properly. Even worse I have three other covers and they’re all smashed to bits. Everyone has got a Nokia because of the name, I’ve had a Nokia 3310 but for me the c45 outclasses it by far. It has more features, more style and more reliability. The only thing that lets it down is the navigation buttons at the top. The up, down and select buttons are all joined together which is a pain in the neck really, because you try to press one of ...  Read the complete review

I originally bought this phone because all of my friends had the latest nokia and it was beginning to get tiresome wondering which phone was mine down the pub. The Siemens C45 comes with two different fascias, silver and blue. The silver looks cool for about two weeks but easily becomes scratched so take care not to keep it in a pocket with your car keys! After that I switched to the Blue cover, which is wearing well and looks neat. The size of the phone is compact and lightweight so it can fit into very small pockets and won't stretch your jacket out of shape, but I have often had a quick panic after being unable to feel it about my person ...  Read the complete review
