Siemens A62 Mobile Phone Review

Siemens A62 Details

Colin How long should the battery be charged when new?
The shop said 16 hours - the book says 2 hours - who is right?

Eric Preeya,
"there's no 'New SMS' option on my A62 and it switiches off whenever i try to access the Inbox"
I also have this exact same problem. Did you solve it?

keyvan i can't find ristricted call in siemens A62 .

Richard Right i just bought this phone (because my last one was broken when i put it in the washing machine... and then tumble dryer) and i have to turn it on every 2 hours, because it turns its self off every 2 hours... the screen has developed a red line down it too (keep in mind i havent had this phone a week) not only that but the buttons are fiddly and prone to "miss clicks" and i have already called moutian rescue while it was in my pocket (yeh key lock is great) in all honestly if you have this phone and it works for you great otherwise get a good phone, im just going to flush mine down the toilet because thats all its good for.

oana i've been thinking on buying these phone but i've heard that it doesn't have a reminder list.is it true or not?! Thank's

Pietrosu Andrei It's a very nice phone. i just bought one and i am very satisfied with it. it has a big display for a phone it's size.

CookieRevised I just got this phone (for free) when I (forcefully) needed to change phones since the network I'm subscribed to is going to change systems.

The phone is HELL.

- It is slow (menu's/updates/etc)
- Buttons are freaking to small and very prone to miss hits.
- Phone itself is very small and not designed to be hold in one hand and press buttons with your thumb (unless you have a small child's hand that is)
- Navigation and menu's are NOT userfriendly at all in any way! And you need to press all sort of buttons to do a simple task.
- Some of the memory is filled with useless (English) predefined sms texts; no way to delete or even change those.
- (ring)tones are too silent. Though you can change the volume, it isn't really audible in practice
- Turning phone on/off is slow (and you NEED to give each time a confirmation, otherwise your phone turns back off.. stupid "aircraft mode")
- etc...

I have found NO advantages AT ALL for this phone (for me) compared to my old Nokia 5130!* They can give back my old Nokia 5130 (brick) any time!

*Except for the looks of it maybe.

mpantaziu Dear EddiE,
In Romania it's only 12 $ with a 2 yers subscription! Without subscription goes to 80 USD, VTA not included.
TKS!

<unknown> Think this phone should be officially launched in mid-late Jan 05
