  • One week ago(December 14,2005) i purchased my Bird S299 in Smart Wireless Communication Center @ SM City Mall Davao City, Philippines.I am happy to share my experience to all Bird S299, that the unit is effecient, handy and deserving of being displayed in public. "Hindi naluluma" in english "Quite updated". My suggestion only is if you can make the LCD colored in this model S299 then this mobile phone is already of high end quality. The price here in Davao is very affordable it cost me only Php2,900.00 dollar equevalent is $53.70. The unit Bird S299 is selling like hotcakes. "Merry Christmas!".

  • It's a great phone for da price.... I purchased it in Karachi for RS 3000/- only. Fm radio works very nice, everything is nice but there is only one confusion... where is WAP browser and GPRS???

  • good quality

  • How do you increase or reduce the volume? Volume is low.
