  • Hi friends i was using panasonic EB-G51E mobile suddenly it stoped working just i want to know where is the best service center in south india.

  • hi dude ya even im facing the same problem help me if u can

  • Whre cn i get a ph0ne like this hre in the philippines?waah!

  • too small.. and when it comes to texting, its irritating! but it luks gud..

  • How can I open my gprs?! My phone is a Panasonic E-GB51. It indicates here that it has a gprs on it. But I don't know its grps and csd settings?! Please somebody help me.. Thanks in advance

  • same problem w/ the other,i only used it for half a month,year 2004,july...while i am using it for texting,unexpected,the screen becomes dark,and i can no longer use it..up to now im keeping it,its still on cabinet coz i love the color and for being cute...and i dont hve any plans of going to a technician coz i think it will take too long to fix it...once i drop by on a cellphone repair shop,they told me that they hve to order LCD from the country of origin coz they hve no stock of the same..just wasting my time and money...

  • I Love This Mobile

  • I've had my g51 for 2 years now. within 6 months the lcd was acting up. exactly the same things you described. no display. it will lit up but remained blank. i had it repaired (within warranty period) by Wireless (SM Megamall, 4/F, Cyberzone). they tried to repair it themselves but eventually had to send to the Panasonic cellphone dealer. but now, it's gotten worse. the color changes while I'm using it. it also scrolls sideways. Backlight doesn't light up when buttons are pressed. I just give it a few good whacks with my hand to "realign" the lcd. i whack it from the left and right. the reason for all this wacky display is a misaligned lcd. and when the whacks don't work, I take off the battery (don't bother turning it off first). put the battery back on. wait a few seconds then turn on the phone. things should work properly. if not, repeat the whacks and taking off the battery. admitedly I've dropped the phone several times. I'm now ready to buy a new phone since the lcd problems occur regularly now.

  • i have the panasonic gd55 rom the p.i. but when i brought it to las vegas it didnt wanna work. i know its tri-band, but they said that it just doesnt work in the states. is the G51 the same too, or will it work out here? because i really want it

  • i have this phone and its broken now. the problem that i have is that the lcd is not showing the screen. i tried to ask about it but it seems though that there is no person or tools that can fix this phone. at first it hunged up and then the screen is no longer showing the display but its stil works but no screens only.. can somebody help me with this? is there a flash or tools that can fix this problem?

  • i have a question? is the GPRS icon supposed to be there even if it is not activated?

I have jsut purchased this phone and i have one issue with it...when i receive a double text message, i.e. one which somebody has sent me but it has gone over into 2 messages, i am unable to read the first half, it just says "receiving" and never lets you open it, and i am only able to read the second half of the message. this is very frustrating. I have read manual and tried lookign at settings, options etc, but havent go anywhere, any oen help me? i'd very much appreciate it!

  • Hi ! I am searching for this G51 software 9aplication data) : My God.. I have been searching for days already and don�t find it ! I�ve ordered 1 Mobile Phone / PDA USB Data Suite for Panasonic G51 which costed me � 8.95 + � 5 for international shipping and they sent me just the cable ! >:( They were not honest and no matter how many times I contact them regarding the application CD... they have been ignoring me now. My question is : where can I find this software, please ????? Can anyone send it to me by email or tell me its link ?? Please, let me know about it coz I am getting crazy here ! It is incredible that I could not find this application CD and without it... the cable has no utility at all ! Well... That�s it ! Ahhh : I am in Brazil !! I hope someone can help me and thanks in advance to everybody !! :) My email : [email protected] .

  • I bought a second hand pink G51 a week ago as they no longer sell them in Brazil. The connection isn't always great. I've managed to get a brand new battery. I hope I can keep this mobile forever. Its style is perfect for girls. And the look on my friends faces when they see it is a plus. 31Jul06

  • 04 Pros: Size Unique style(looks more expensive that is it) Advanced features to size and price Polyphonic sounds 04 Contras: Battey life too short Messages text cursor goes faster (doesn't let chose the letters in ABC mode)I'm usual to Motorolas There is no letters with backlight to input messages text in the darkness Screen in outdoors is hard to see (using max brightness)and harder if you use a savescreen with dark colors (The only way is no use savescreen)

  • Despite what most of the comment I read about G51, I still wanted to see it for myself. Finally I received my G51 phone last week and I'm very please with the size and the colored screen. I usually carry a purse with me and I have no problem putting it inside. But like most of you had mentioned the clarity reception is very poor. I just wish they could have done something about that feature and it would have been perfect. Although I admit I just love the reaction I get from people after they find out it's not a toy. I was wondering if any of you heard of Antenna Booster which supposedly enhances your phone's reception. I'm very tempted to get one for my phone but I'm not sure if it really works as well as they promise. Here's the link to the Antenna Booster site if any of you are interested or just curious.

  • how come i cant receive pictures msg? any ideas? and does anywun knoe of any good site for the melody composer for the keypress instead of showin all the other bs... hehe thanks

  • It's fantastic the G51 but the problem is the Line conections. Its small and it doesn't works well when you are talking in places with alot of peoples talking around (use head sets), and due to his small dimension, his energy output to recieve the transmission from the operator is week... depending of the building structure... if you go in, the line cuts off and it enteres searching mode. Other problem is that it doesn't have a reconect system, if you go to other cities, you might have to re-enter (shut-down and on again) to reconect the standby line. The good thing of this mobile fone is that its small and compact.. wich is good for carreing around with out being noticed.

  • Hey, I have a G51 phone too and when people send me ring tones it won't recive, I mean they don't come at all. Is there like a program maybe that i candowload from somewhere so that I can recieve ringtones and maybe picture messeges (pictures) from other people?????????? thanks :) If you can answer me on my question write to [email protected] thanks ;)

  • I can't believe this phone was sold so widely. Women love it because of the size, but it has a big design fault: the keyboard. Writing a SMS is impossible for standard size fingers (99% of human kind), or even for women large nails!!

  • Andrew, when I sent a ringtone to my G51, it showed up in the list of ringtones automatically unlike with other phones where you have to find it in folders and set it as a ringtone.

  • Does anyone know how to start up the browser?... I am using this phone with my T-mobile account but don't know how to set up the browser.... Thanks so much!!!!

  • Thank you for getting back to me. i have just tried scrolling and it seems to be a little louder. Thanks for cluing me in!

  • i have had this phone for 2 and a half years. i love it. its the smallest phone i can find. and the cutest. it has great battery life, i go away for the weekend with a full nights charge and im fine. the only downfall is that i cannot figure out how to download ring tones. after 2.5 years of heavy use the ringtone speaker is dieing, so now im looking for a new phone. i think i will buy this phone again. i love it sooo much!!

  • My Friend is going to give me this cell phone, but the problem i have is that it doesnt have the sim so will i still be able to use it or will i have to buy it.

  • Lily, did you try pressing the up/down scroller while you are on the phone to adjust volume?

  • I just got this phone....It is cool...But the problem i am facing is that When i charge the mobile its battery gets emptied in just 2 hours....is it the battery fault or the jack....if anyone knows MSG me...PLZ

  • I just got this phone and i really like it so far. It is the cutest thing. people are always amazed by the size of it. the only problem so far is that there is no volume on the ear peice which is too bad because sometimes when i am on the street in the city, i can't really hear because the bacground noise is louder than the person't voice. other than that, it really is a lovely little thing.

  • Nice phone, just it took me a while to get used to the keypad when writing SMS for example if you want to write the letter "D" you push the button above the letter not under like other other phones! Other than that it's a GREAT phone

  • A very good cell phone! Perfect design , many functions. The only problem I faced (I bought it in Dec/04) is that there is a difficulty in downloading anything using GPRS. I suggest it if you need a simple but beautiful phone. Ideal as a gift!

  • I wanna ask if you can insert SIM (chip)

  • It's a nice sized and good looking phone, but I wouldn't recommend someone to buy it. The ear volume is extremely low, and I find my calls get cut off often. Reception is not the best.

  • it's nice cellphone , but i have problem i sent to it a ringtone , and i don't know where to find it or how can i resevie it i find ! between menu and names , what shall i do ? help me please

  • Nice phone but the keyguard renders it useless. You need to press the button 3 times to set the keyguard and only twice to unset it. I have made so many calls and wasted so much credit that I don't use the phoneo anymore. Got in trouble for 911 calls too. Pity!

  • my phone is g15m,is there somebody help me to maximize my messagetone and ringtone? plzzzzzzzzz....help me coz its very low to hear.

  • Panasonic g51m,is very much good in terms of size,but the ringtone and message tone on this phone cannot here essilly........hope anyone can help me to maximize the said problem on this phone..

  • My experience with this phone has been very good, although troubled along the way. I bought it in April 2005, used for a while, loved it, until one day I downloaded a wallpaper from the Panasonic OFFICIAL website (what was I thinking?!? :) ), and the phone froze permanently. It took me months sifting through the Internet to get the right cable and software to flash it (thank the lord for the russian mafia). After that, it's been working great again. Pros: Its size is obviously the phone's best feature. I'll pick a bone with all the cell phone manufacturers and mainly their users who demand the phones nowadays to have stupid cameras built-in, which prevents them from getting this small. In this sense, the G50/51x family seem to be the last of this kind, unfortunately. Other than that, the phone's internet browser is also quite decent. And the ability to play true tones is quite cool. Reception is quite good, SUPERIOR (that's right, you read it right, SUPERIOR) to Nokia's and Motorola's (I had a few phones from both brands on the very same network - T-Mobile GSM in the US and none of them had better reception that this little fella). Cons: First and foremost, as others have well put: the battery sucks. From the start, the standby time was around 48 to 72 hours (with no wap browsing, no ringing from incoming calls, no vibrating alerts or anything that might consume extra power). Talk time is somewhere between 60 and 90 minutes. Also, if you're going into areas that don't have service (such as basements) remember to turn off the phone, because it will start searching for all network types and ranges, and that wastes a LOT of battery power. Other minor problems: no phone management software from Panasonic, which sucks, and the handsfree feature doesn't work very well (I believe the sound loops from the speaker to the mic, causing all sorts of problems). The matter of durability that was mentioned in this forum is very relative. Cell phones are not supposed to be dropped anyway. Still, you can feel that the G51m is a bit fragile, maybe more so than some Nokias and Motos. But still, it's also very much less expensive, it costs at least half of the price of the other phones, maybe even less. So if it breaks after some time, buy a new one and you're still on the plus side...

  • I brought this phone second hand and its a really great phone. There are only two things that really annoy me and thats the message alert tone is really really quiet and I couldn't get it to go any louder. The other thing is that the key guard lock was pretty pathetic it would always unlock in my handbag. Apart from those two minor things, this phone is really cool. the sound quality is the best.

  • I have a question about this phone. I currently have the G51M and my melody composer is not working.. whenever i try to use the composer it says "not done". I was wondering if someone can help me with this? thanks alot

  • this phone is really cute! i love it! but i had a big prob about this,i bought dis phone just this july 2005 from a friend who used to work in Taiwan (she bought it in Taiwan) but i can no longer use it because the display turns out into dark blue,whenever im turning it on,the name comes out (PANASONIC) but afterwards it turns out dark,the light is dark blue.im hir in Philippines ryt now, i had a hard time lookin for a repair center who used to fix that kind of phone.hope u could help me.whats the problem on that.tnx! email me the answer pls! i missed my phone so much!

  • i just bought a g51m and even after i insert my sim card it keeps asking to insert sim card. i can still make and receive calls but, i cannot access menu or any other features-it shows on the screen "phonecode locked". please help!!!!

  • bought this in december 2004... as of july 2005, it is currently broken. i'm now in the process of finding a new phone. it was fun while it lasted, but some things i didn't like about it include it's speed, battery life, and ear piece. The phone had a terriblely slow response when pusing buttons, the battery lasted long in the beginning, true to the 2hr talk time, but after a few charges, it started to decrease. last time i used it, the battery lasted only 30 or so mins and i had to recharge it daily even when only in standby. The earpiece would not work. The plug on the phone sucks and never worked properly from the start. the one good thing about this phone was the reception. one of the best when the phone worked. things that broke: backlight does not turn on has a poor time finding a carrier terrible battery life charger port is very flimsy and does not stick to the phone well recommendations: don't waste your money on this unless you plan to take extream care when handeling. took a few light drops, but it's dead now. Not nearly as durable as a nokia.

  • ive bought this phone from new york a year ago,and it works perfectly.the only problem is i dont know how to do the wap settings.its saying theres an error.can someone email me,please?

  • i want bey this fone plzz advice me what do u think about it

  • ive bought this phone from china a year ago,and it works perfectly,with vodafone irl.the only problem is i dont know how to do the wap settings.its saying theres an error.can someone email me,please?

  • I had tried to download wallpapers using GPRS to my phone,it is indicated that the wallpaper is downloaded and saved, but when I open my picture folder in the download I find message "no pictures" when I checked my memory status it is indicating 77 KB used I do not have any downloaded ringtones as well as melody composer is also empty.what is occupying the memory and how to fix this problem?

  • If you're going for looks, yes, this is the phone to get. It's cute and small. It's user friendly, and has the basic features that all phones have. One major problem about it is the volume of the other party when using the phone. It's hard to hear, even if you set it at the loudest. Basically to enjoy a normal conversation, you would need an environment to be complete silence. I found it quite annoying, I am no longer using it.

  • Me again. Can you tell me some cool stuf I can do on this mobile? Thank you.

  • My best phone. I am not englesh, because that my english is not perfect. Sorry. But i can tell you that if you think to buy this phone, you shud. I loved it. In first it vas a lithel small, but then you gett to like his lithel body. BUY IT !!!

  • this phone is the BEST!!!i personally have one, and its great may not have a camera and all those other things, but it serves its purpose, and i think and hope that they will not discontinue this line of making a phone like this...i have had soo many compliments for this phone, u can put it anywhere, u can hear great when u are talking with someone , all the best i LOVE IT....

  • it's too small. but is this easy to use??

  • I bought this phone when it very first came out. Ever since then, I have purchased 2 more for my friends. I love the phone and like everything about it. It could use a few more colors but even at the amount of colors it has, it is pretty clear. I think it is very unique and always an eyecatcher. Have not had any of my 3 phones freeze up and have not had problems with battery life. I did at first have difficulties with the WAP configuration but figured it all out with the aid of my cellular provider, AT&T and Cingular. Definitely would recommend to people who want a unique phone with a small price tag. Doesn't have the top-of-the-line features, but you can't expect to get the best phone for under $100.

  • i think tis phone is cool

  • I just got the G51. The silver one. Does it really have a really bad battery life and will it freeze easily? Please help because I only have 2 weeks to return it and I don't want to buy the wrong phone. Thanks Guys & Gurls! Viv

  • Hi ! I've bought a Panasonic GD 51m and I need some help to configure to WAP use. Please help me!! Thank's!

  • I work for a wireless provider and anytime it requests a puk code you have to go down to the carrier and have them unlock it for you. They need the # of your sim card in order to do it! either that or get a new sim. Sometimes this will happen when you enter too many of the wrong passwords.

  • The phone looks great, and I love the lighted keypad! Recently I was playing around with my phone and I set a PIN for it. After setting the PIN, it asked me for the PUK. Now since I've set a PIN for my phone, everytime I turn it on it asks for the PIN, then the PUK. ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT "PUK" STANDS FOR? I never set any PUK number. PLEASE HELP AS I can't turn on my phone anymore!!! :( Thank u so much!!!

  • Hi, Nice little phone, does the job. Got it unlocked for US with T-mobile SIM. Works a charm EXCEPT I can only ever get Cingular roaming. I have selected the right frequency band, but it never goes over to T-mobile. T-mobile support can even pick up the IMEI but it never registers. Someone mentioned, that they got it working with T-mobile after changing some factory settings. Can you please post these. Thanks

  • Hi Sandra The exlamation denotes that u have a new message in ur push inbox... just open ur gprs browser by selecting start browser...then ull get option like home bookmarks etc etc...among these ull also find 'advanced'... go here and click inbox... there will messages here just click to read them so that no message remains unread.... Go to main screen...and tada!! exclamation gone... Cya!

  • I find my Panasonic G51 just wonderful... but I have a problem. A few days ago I download a ringtone, I received it but I can't install it. There is an exclamation mark between the "Menu" and "Names" words. Please, help!!

  • This phone is great for size but that's about it. Terrible reception problems, poor battery life and limited extras. Would not recommend this phone unless you don't use one much. Cheers

  • dis fone is quite sexi but should b in more colours but im not complaingin! green or light purple would b nice. O, and it DOES have lights on the screen & keypad. is the battery life really poor? i jst got mine like a week ago...plz e-mail me guys... Stacie

  • I got my G51 on the 14th of May and it is really cool. The txting works. It's cute and small. Pretty. Luv My Fone! Lil_Ang3el

  • i have the g51m and its a great phone but but i can;t seem to be able to use the browser i set gprs and the csdbut it's still not working if somebody could help me out with this please email me thanks

  • Love the designbut it's very fragile. The first one I got has no sound what-so-ever. Send it back to get a new one. Works great till a month later when the screen went blank. It came back another month later. Used for another two more months, dropped it on carpeted floor and the screen went again. Still not coming back yet. My Nokia 6100 had taken much more abuse than this and had worked great till its antenna got chewed up by a puppy. Since I am such a sucker for its style and size. I am probably giving it another chance...

  • anyone having a problem with text messaging? after a few months all of a sudden it says Text Rejected when I try to send the text, any ideas?

  • hey guys can you help me on how to activate my handsfree on my cellphone..need directions...please..thanks

  • i think cell phone should be what is it. a phone. camera and all other crap on the phone are pretty useless to me. this is a good choice for a basic phone. everything works well except the battery life is short and the ear phone is not very loud(i drive a convertible). my phone has just been through a wash cycle in the washing mechine and it still works..this phone kicks ass

  • This phone is neat for the sizr only, the features on it are about as limited as a nokia 3595. Poor reception and screen too bad display. BUt better then the Panasonic X300.

  • this has got to be the biggest piece of crap phone that i have ever bought in my life! no reception... ANYWHERE! I've tried it in USA- Miami, Washington DC, and in Spain... and it NEVER has any signal.. and it's not the provider... i do not recommend at all!! (not kidding either)

  • If you want a no-nonsense phone at a good price then this is it. I have tried them all and I have only ended up with phones that have so many features that I never get to use anyway.

  • I bought this phone off ebay and I've been using it all week. This is such a little phone!! The reception is great and I recommend this phone to anyone who likes the style of it, because it is fantastic. Also FYI, the buttons light up blue and the speakerphone works surprisingly well also.

  • hello somebody please help me the phone is in chinese and i want to change it back to english and the black light doesnt come on how to i make it come on because even if i press the buttons it doesnt come on please anybody help me...

  • I don't know what all this fuss is about. I don't much about conklins but I think this phone is marvellous. You should buy lots of them.

  • I bought 2 because I think they look sexy. I have converted from Telecom to Vodafone. The price was really, really, really, cheap. I also confiure conklins.

  • Got my pink G51 thru EBAY...cute phone indeed!Does anyone have browser settings for this, I have TMobile?..spent 2 days looking for it-no luck.I want to download ringtones but do not have the correct setting so panasonicbox.com is useless.THNX

  • this fone is the crappiest fone on earth, after one month of service, it started 2 have problems continuosly...... and it doesn't happen only on me, my friend bought teh exact same fone, the same problems happen 2 her too... this is one crazy fone.. stop buying panasonic fones..

  • This phone is the shit!!!!!!! I love it. People always comment good on it. The only thing that sucks about it is that somtimes when people call you, it rings, but when you answer it, it hangs up on them. Only sometimes, the chances of it happening are like 20% out of 100%. It is not JUST my phone, my cousin has this phone too and he told me the same thing. This phone still rocks baby!!!!!!!

  • I understand that this fone has no keypad light. Therefore g50 is better and more practical and BETTER LOOKING!

  • I've had this model for a few months now and it's a talking point amongts friends because of it's size but it's not terribly practical...but then again, you dont buy this phone for its practicality.

  • u can download ringtones & wallpapers from your service provider or panasonicbox.com. Panasonic Box has a wap site but only accessible from the Philippines if you are willing to pay the service provider's access charges. As for the phone having no display, either blank black or white screen, it's a software problem. Had to have mine repaired by the local distributor. Luckily it was still under warranty. When i got it back, it was as if it was new. guess it had to be reformatted. All of my settings & info that was phone dependent was erased

  • Hi, I just got this phone brand new, but unfortunatly it wont take a charge. I returned the phone for a new one and is now doing the same thing again. I have taken sim card out and it charges for few seconds then turns off, any suggestions?

  • Iam goin to get da phone coz it has high features in its small case

  • Hi , I've recently bought a G51-U in the USA , but I'm having trouble getting the WAP settings sorted out for use in the UK.Would someone please be able to email me the settings they have? Greatly appreciated! Thankyou , Pete

  • Hey! I'm Radu. I'm from Romania and I'm very stupid! I don't know why I bought this phone! Cheers mates!

  • Good little phone. Keypad IS lit with blue. Yes, keylock is easily turned off if left in back pocket. Menus are well set out and intuitive. Small buttons take a while to get used to but are not cumbersome at all once you are familiar. Excellent battery life.

  • Just got the phone from Ebay, supposedly 2 months old. Everything works great but the phone has NO SOUND whatsoever. No ringtones, no keypad tones, warning tones. When receiving calls it does vibrate if I set it to. but no ringers. Anyone knows a quick fix for this?

  • Great phone from panasonic, I used it for 6 months, with no comlaints. For "no service" problem, from the phone menu, check the operational band (900/1800, 900/1900, etc). most probably from the phone settings. regards

  • hey everyone, i just bought thee g51 (silver), when i got the phone everything worked fine, but today only the hands free works, the problem is that when i make a call i cant hear the other person and they cant hear me, but when i go on hands freee the phones works fine. anyone have an idea of what is wrong?, maybe i presedd a button to lock it somehow?

  • hi i just want to get so ring tones but i don't no how.

  • I have had the Panasonic G51 for a month now, but have just reverted to my old GD55. The only reason is that the Keyguard Lock is unreliable. It often unlocks in my posket as it is the same key that needs to be pressed twice to unlock the keys. As it is on a rocker key it accidentally unlocks itself and you could easily end up with a phone call being made. This never happened with the GD55. I spent so much time checking if the phone was locked or not that I've reverted. Has this happened to anybody else in the world?

  • Hi your phone has no problem most probably is locked that why says no service ...... go online and fine a programm that unlock .... if you have LIMEWIRE is your best bet. You can download limewire at limewire.com is free Ciao

  • the stuff is small but it perform GREAT

  • I bought this phone and have At&T GSM service. Phone won't work - says NO SERVICE - Please HELP!!!!

  • I got this phone as a present from ebay. It's a cute phone but it keeps turning itself off when it's charging (even when i'm using it to talk to somebody)! The phone also freezes sometimes and the only way you can start using the phone again is to pull the battery off and put it back on. Maybe I just ended up with a dodgy phone? Otherwise it's pretty good. It would be great if it supported MMS.

  • Hey, i just got the pan g51e, but i can't seem to find any sites for ringtones, especially the sites where they have the song and gives you the music to compose it yourself on ur headset, if anyone knows of any site, please let me know. Thanks!

  • I bought a new G51M (blue) on eBay for $99 with FREE shipping from a woman in Florida who couldn't use it with her network provider. This phone is tooooo cute!! This thing has great "ears" as I live on the fringe of my service area. My Nokia 8290 was "deaf as a post" (No service at all) and my Nokia 9290 Communicator had to be hooked to the car kit with a mag-mount antenna going out my bedroom window! Although signal still spotty, The Panasonic G51 has a better receiver than any other phone I've used in quite some time. Next, will be the new HP iPAQ h6315!!! :)

  • This phone is awsome. It has every feature i want: speakerphone, wap etc. it is very nice phone and unique. Dont let the bad reviews fool you. Go with your instinct. To download ringtones, wallpaper: go here

  • I have a G51 phone and it won't work on the Cingular network. It keeps picking up ATT&T Wireless. I love the phone, and no one else seems to have had this problem so... I don't know.

  • does anyone know where i can download new ringtones for this phone?? and wallpapers as well? thx ;)

  • Hi! I'm a customer from Brazil, South America. I'd like to know where are you located? And are you able to ship Panasonic cell phones to my country? If yes, can I have an idea of how much does the G51 cost? Thank you so much in advance for your attention and please, answer me ASAP. Regards, Sylvia PS: If you can't send it to Brazil could you please indicate me a store in my country? Thanks again.

  • i have one and it works like a charm!!!;) ilove it

  • I think is one of the best you have. I'm used to having the GD55 and I loved it. The only prblem is that the lyfetime is decreasing and I don't know how or where to buy a new battery for it. Because of this I'm thinking in buying the G51 (I think is the newest in the market). At the same time I'm afraid because I saw in the features the time of talking is lower than mine (GD55). Otherwise I should buy a new cell phone together with a second battery.

  • I bought this phone, and everyone who sees it mentions how small it is. It's very nice and has many features. It's stylish, it was designed to be as small as possible. No camera, no bluetooth, those things I don't need anyway. I bought the phone because it gives me exactly what I need. A stylish cool cell phone.

  • how much would the phone be

  • I have 2 weeks with this phone and I have been getting troubles because the phone unblock with a lot of facility and it start a call and you don't even know, so you have to pay a lot of many for a call that you didn't make.

  • i found that this phone ringtones and wallpapers is very difficult to find.not very compatible.it can stored 100msges.to all ppl who knows where to find the ringtones and the wallpapers pls tell me the site.pls pls pls

  • By the way, are there any connectivity possibilities with PC or other phones? I know there is no infrared, but maybe via a cable or so ? Let me know please :) Alex

  • Hi. I'm thinking of buying this little phone :). Could anyone tell me how many sms messages it stores ?? SIM not included... Thanks in advance, Alex

  • very small mobilephone, simple and fashionable, smart mobilephone as long does not have camera and infrared in there.

  • I live in the U.S. and I got mine for $175 + shipping off of eBay. I got the all silver G51M and it works great with T-Mobile service. Just have to change a few factory settings to make it work. YES THE KEYS LIGHT UP, blue. The RINGER is VERY loud for such a small phone. It works great. The games that come on it are a racing and linear game (like super mario bro.). I like the G51m style over the G50....the G50's keys make it look like a toy. The G51M comes in all silver or silver/blue. The G51E is the Gold or Pink one. Just a little difference in outside looks. It comes with AWESOME REAL ring tones. I will never get another CRAPPY american provider phone again!!!!!

  • i love this phone...so small...and it does have night light......it was basically free for me with activation and everything...so not expensive...and its unlocked....love it....(o'-'o)

  • very cute ohoe and eay to tarvel with

  • how many msg's can this phone store all together??? plz reply.

  • THe g51e can put silver colour also???? PLease!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • for those of u that wanna get this phone, look on ebay.com...price range 150-200 us dollars. not too bad for a small size cute colored screen phone. that's not including shipping, cost you about 20-30 bucks, depending who u buy it from! i have gd55, im satisfied w/ it. i might buy g51 next year. good luck to everyone.

  • come on guys, don't just make a conclusion yourself. Give 100% answer whether there is light on the keypad. Don't just guess

  • Just from my own experience, the keypad is easily spoilt!!!

  • i think G51 got keypad light coz G51 almost same is G50..just the design is different n ppl said that G50 got keypad light...i think G51 also got too...i'm going to buy G51 tomolo..so we will know wheather it got keypad light or not tomolo...:)

  • i like very much it phone but i have not money to acheter, i am congolese i dont know speak english very well. thank you and good lucky

  • are this is a good mini phone? i want to buy it, but i dunno how much? can u tell me?

  • Such a cute mobile phone, quite trendy for teenagers..for the 1st time i saw this phone...it was so sweet. its seems like i just fall in luv wif this pink coloured baby phone...!!!

  • when is it being released in Australia?

  • hi!! I would like to know the difference betwenn the G51e and the G51m

  • good

  • I have read all the oppinions on here but has anyone actually purchased the G51? I see a few critics but none have purchased this phone to actually give an honest oppinion.... mostly just speculation.....

  • Buy a Pana anyway, much better in my opinion than other phones.

  • Thanx for the suggestion but it's a bit costly in Indian currency.

  • Haritha rather get samsung e715

  • May be,the light from the screen is enough to see the buttons.But from the look of it,it doesn't seem to have light on its buttons.I dunno!

  • hi, i am about to buy this phone but are u sure there got no light on its button? its kinda weird at this technology if "there is no light", maybe u accidentally off it or something?

  • That's a good question! I always sit with my cell in the dark 'coz that's when it looks good to me.=] I'm all confused about which mobile to buy.I'm not able to decide b/w philips535/pan g51/sony eric z200.Any suggestions?

  • Dear Haritha, wat are you doing with your phone in the dark?

  • The keypad too small, if G51 keypad same like GD55 more comfortable to used this mobile

  • Pink rocks!

  • This is the handset for the Panasonic G51 E, there is also the plain G51 and the G51 M. The design is small, made as an accessory rather than an actual phone... Still, its quite cute ^^

  • How is somebody supposed to dial a number on this phone? with fingers or pen-tips? The design is ok but I wonder if somebody'll be able to dial in the dark.It has got no light on its buttons.

  • The handset does not look like this.

  • shittt design with stupid looking antena
