can anyone tell me if CSD service works in this phone. As I have seen, the phone allows you to configure CSD profile. Therefore, I was just wondering if it reaaly works or not! Please help

md. omar faruque

it's a very nice phone, that's true. but any large size files (above 375 kb) are not come by infrared & bluetooth. i hope the authority look this matter. the another useful of this phone is it use as a pen-drive. thanks

Shiblee

This mobile set can me used as webcam. Its true. You have to select the mood from menue when connect the data cable. But I think this slowest phone cannot satisfy you.But its outlooking and disply is nice. And it cant run all software smoothly. And if you r not satisfied with this phone, my suggestion is to use it as a torch light. Its very good as a mini imergency light. From: Sakhawat Elahi Shiblee.

Shiblee

It is the slowest mobile phone I have ever seen. It cannot response quickly after pressing a button. Other painfull problem is that, It cannot send or reaceive a file via Bluetooth or InfraRed which size is more then 350KB. But now a days we have to transfer files more then sevaral MBs. Its wap browser also very slow. Camera takes huge times to capture a photo r video.

Ashraful Alam

plz add philips 768 driver software download link.

Johan

Slowest phone i have ever seen in life,don't buy this disgusting phone,apart from the display there is nothing good about this pathetic phone

Makereta Tupua

I am unable to download the pictures I had taken to my pc

Mohammad Osman Goni

I am unhappy with my phone. Design and display is really good. But cameras are not good. I think camera shatters and flesh light are very weak. Really I am unhappy for that. Mohammad Osman Goni (Raton) [email protected] cell: +8801712211801

Anan

im happy with my phone. display is really good. camers is not fully satisfying. but sms is slow. also can anyone tell me where i can find games for it and how to install?

imu

the mobile is very slow.

felix

this is a clone hp(SE+Nokia) just compare its design,(keypads) its almost the same as nokia 6233. but, i'm impress with the multifunctional conector (usb+charger+headset). sms'ing is v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v slow. it took you ages to types. some ringing ones are copied or modified from other brands e.g nokia-SE

Shuvo

Well you need to copy the jar and jad file into your phone not mmc and then click on it and it will ask you if u want to instrall opera mini or not after that you can find it in the java games

mith

hay this is mith.im using philips 768 but i cant install opera mini in my mobile phone.also can anybody tell me if i can use messenger in this phone.plz send me reply in my email [email protected] plz be specific and step by step installation process.

Len

This Phone is truly a beauty. With an IrDA adapter i use it as a gprs modem. The phone software works perfectfy with IrDA connection. Now i can check internet, send email & mms, organize tasks everything !!! I also found many addictive GAME for this phone. Of course you should ask for them now !!! ** One who asked about webcam: turn on your webcam option in phone and connect the data cable to pc. If you are using windows xp, then it will automatically detect it as usb webcam. Then you can capture your moments from windows movie maker or any video editing software. You can also use it while chatting... just configure it in your messenger.

masudur rahman

there was shows taht,i can use wabcam by this phone,but i can not set up this.please if anyone know how can get this facilities tell me by mailing me.that is [email protected] you.

len

regarding some query i like to share some of experience with this phone.. yes it can be used as a modem in your pc for internet and mms access but according to philips it worked for irda adapter only. software that was provided with the cd can be downloaded from philips consumer online. And for louder ringtone you can try mp3 rintones.

Taufiq Anwar

Can anyone tell me whether, this phone can be connected to wireless blutooth stereo headset like Motorola motorokr S9! Plzzzz..let me know

Taufiq Anwar

Can Anyone tell me does this phoen work as modem while connected to Laptop or PC. If anyone knows, please let me know.

Lee

I am user of Philips 789 for less than a year now. But i wanted to use my 1 gig mini SD but I don't know how. If we try to bluetooth an mp3 music it says file not supported. And I want to add that my CD installer is broken, is there a way I can reaplce it? Or maybe I can download the software. I am soo frustrated but I love this phone very much. I badly need an answer.

Ropok

This phone is good. but no FM radio.

silcosilva

has this phone before.it was a honest phone,however,too many 'slight' problems. i dislike the video and mp3 function.very problematic.it can't do wat its said to do well.the phone also has a very unresponsive bluetooth function. the built-in speaker wasnt designed for music playback.

yu888

Having used this 768 now for over a year, I must say its been one of the better phones i have had. Bluetooth functionality has been very good. the screen lighting is very nice. the camera leaves a bit to be desired, but the overall performance and size are great. Only downfall is that it does not sync with my Mac very well as there is no driver/software for it. thus Bluetooth has been my friend. :)

Supal

I tried to use this set as a gprs modem. But I failed... May be I need a driver... If u have please let me know... Or if anyone can use it as a gprs modem let me know ....

james fuentes

i had my unstable 960 replaced with this (a virtual downgrade) because i was promised better performance. for while i thought it did perform better: until i noticed that some of the tracks i was able to play using my 960 ( i simply transferred them from the microsd to the minisd being used on the 768) wasn't possible on my 768!!! i asked for advice about this and all the folks at philips can say is it's a bit rate issue, a line i don't buy for one bit. a software upgrade isn't available either. no wonder philips has lagged behind the so called major players.

wyn

i bought this phone last year, and within 2 days it was sent back to the service centre. within a month it had to be fixed there thrice. the mp3 player is very unstable.. sometimes the tracks keep skipping without any sound is being played. this goes on forever until the phone hangs. like the other posts have stated, the bluetooth function is rather useless too. text messaging takes a long time since the key pads are slow and un-userfriendly.. it lags too. battery life... well lets just say it needs to be charged daily. yes, its affordable and has many functions. thats probably the only good thing about this phone. but did i mention that all those functions don't really work out well? good luck to all new buyers.

Arman

Hi, Im from Bangladesh, and I bought this set 2 weeks ago.....this set is quite fantastic, but there are some probs like the sound is not that good because there aint any equalizer with the phones default player and also the video sucks and bluetooth is limited. But other than that, excellent display, and very slick and attractive look. Someone please tell me how to connect the phone through the mobile phone software cause it cant detect my phone.

len

plz inform me how to use this phone as a gprs modem so i can browse internet in computer using this phone. I see the the internet and mms options is not visible in the given pc software suite. Pls help. ** video can be played full screen with one line at bottom and another up showing time and play-pause options. ** sound from phone speaker is not so loud and bass is low. but in earphone it sounds clear and good.

Hey!!

This phone is not very good Pros : Good Quality Camera, Very Good quality bright Display, 512mb Memory Card Support. Thats it!! Cons : Poor Quality sound & also very low. No Background play, no full screen video, and philips lies that it can play 352X288 video at 30fps. I tried to shoot a video and it was only 15fps and of very poor quality, Bluetooth is very slow and can not transfer files of over 350kb. and the worst part is its slow interface....its really annoying, even keypad response is very very bad. I wudn't recommend this phone!!

Bond

Can this phonr plau videos in full screen mode?

Bond

Hi All! I m looking to buy this phone........plz tell me about the sound quality of the loudspeaker at playing Mp3 (comparing to recent music phones and the loudness).....also is it true that mp3 can not be played in background mode??

boshirul

u can use opera mini on this mobile phone. just install it and from option menu, go to http profile. then set the correct settings of your service operators. i talked to philips on different aspects of this mobile phone. they has not developed any firmware update still. the bluetooth transfer size and speed is limited as its chip is version 1.2. I tried many java games and application on this phone but few of them worked. Anyway if you find any good stuff or any question then let me know.

druvo

can anybody say how can i update my firmware and how can i update my bluetooth option for transfering more data at a time.. pls.............help.......

rom

hi,icant use opera mini in this mobile.it istall in mob,but doesnt work.i can use its browsing software,but i wanna use opera or something like tht java application.pls inform me.

boshirul

Hi, I�m a new user of this model of Philips. It has large color screen which shows good quality pictures. It can also play 3GP type videos. I just converted some of my favorite videos and play them nicely on this mobile. To install java program is also very easy. Just add the file in phone memory (via the given software) into its video folder. In option menu you can later install them. Other good features of this phone are its good quality mp3 player, unlimited video recording, handy flash light, Bluetooth, 30 frame per second video in webcam mood, pen drive like access, good battery charge etc. On the drawback side, this phone has limited Bluetooth function (mean you share files up to 350kb), cannot install java program those have much file size, limited voice recording time, no internet resources, mini sd card up to only 512mb etc. I heard the Bluetooth can be unlocked by the professional technician, though I have not tried. There are only three themes in the phone, don�t know whatever I can add any further. Anyway, this phone is beautiful and featured with many tools. I just hope I can find any forum on this phone and online resources to enhance my experience.

james fuentes

hi guys. does anyone know where i can find themes for the 768 on the net? as you can see, the choices are pretty limited. thanks!

james fuentes

After a lackluster stint with my old, bug filled 960, i opted (at a local philips guy's suggestion no less) a 768 instead. less lag, brighter color and a better build quality. too early to tell how the cosmetic parts will last (the 960's quality build is so lousy) - james

mone

Is the Video is limited or unlimited ? Plaease inform me as soon as posabile. Thanking you Mone

Sadman

Philips is climbing up the ladder. This phone is nice, good camera, mp3, features. Overall is good at cheapest price.

meraj

I wann know about 768 camera,i am looking zoom option on this speciton but i cant find out that. please tell me it has zoom option?

annoymous

please can any one tell me why this phone hangs? when i play a mp4 file, the memory card gets hot like lava.then it hangs. i think philips 768 is not stable. like sony ericsson most. no radio, when play video it hangs, bluetooth and IrDA can't sent receive files up 2 350kb, what else its horrible? but i bought this phone in 8,500 tk or 120$

M1

cos

Worst battery I ever had. After 2 month battery last at most 1.5 days (in standby).

Shuvom VSP

rizat

hi, i just bought this phone. its great. but how on earth i can send and receive over 300kb datas by bluetooth? And my mpeg4 formated movies always hangs. I heard formatting the Mini-sd into fat16 would solve the thing. is it true? Please help me. oh, and inserting java app. or games, its easy. i simply dragged the JAR file to the mobile, and install them from the mobile.

Farab

rom

hi,i m frm bangladesh.is there any1 who hav use it.so may i know the disadvantage of this phone.i wanna buy this phone.so pls give me advice.

QUINTON

To Alek's: It's better for battery not to be charged with the USB-cable. If it's charged with the USB-cable, the battery will have lower life! Moreover, the charger is quite light and small enough to carry in a briefcase/handbag.

Onur

looking firs class but bad baterry life and low ringing. answer: No mike you can't. but you can use this phone like usb memory (dont need driver cd)

Mike

To Alek's: it seems not to be charged with the USB-cable of basic complectation.

Alek's

Does somebody know, with USB cable can charge the battery for this phone?

Leng

I think Philips is begining to evolve it self as it starts to sell new and more functinal cell phones but i hope they can be more competitive with there products like other TOP brands of cell phones.

pacmac

i used xenium9@9+ and 530 before. now i dunno which one to buy, 768 or 960. any suggestion? 1. can u use this phone's camera as a webcam camera too? 2. i'm a macintosh user... is it compatible with mac?

Rost

Hi all! I saw it, felt it, touched it... Really beautiful and smart set. I am from Ukraine we have in store sirtified phone for my country with cyrilic letters on buttons. So lets start with what I found: first attraction my eye catched display. It is large with many info to read+ no problem to look with direct sun rays on it. After taking in hand you feel like fragile thing you got, and treat it respectly. I also twisted it :) to check the abcense of cracking: perfect!!! The most powerful point as for me was buttons and jostik. All made like ingraving with ability to pevent unintendant useing. Just need time to adjust your fingers (men with huge tips of fingers and ladies with long nails will fail to operate without problem). Back side with camera and flash well designed. Te cover for battery not reliable at the first glance(very big minus from y side). Simple flexible cheap plastic...Judge this as you wish... Next: i was really amazed th etype of menu Philips presented, in calm colors with simple icons but they look not agressive as NOKIA for example has. Inside menu a bunch of usseful functions to generate. Sound: unfortunately could not listen mp3 player, but polifony CRYSTAL... Camera: did not see picuters and video at PC but on phone it's worth to pay attention to 768 as coptable recorder. Quick reaction of matrix on changing colors in dark or sunny place. ONE THING upset me(but may be i was wrong) the left button to activate camera very sensitive for a touch. You just touched it and camera in use(during manipulatin it's not convinient in my opinion). The set has 128Mb (in Ukraine), USB cable, phones set(very smart)... Conclusion: 768 desers to be rated as competitor in see of other brands. I like it and planned to buy( price is 280USD). Hope Philips SHOULD start its programme yearly to evaluate strategy... Any comments contact me. ROST

Bogdan

When do you - GSM Arena - post more specification data about this phone? Can you tell where to search to find more specifications about it?

Paeijho

how about the bluetooth & infrared,can it send large files(such as 4 mb mp3 files)?coz from what i read in the manual that i found from the official website,it can only send 350 KB files!can someone try to send large files? THANX!!

Ho

Listening volume is not high, cannot hear at loud place no background mp3 playing (i.e cannot do anything, even looking what time it is, but of course can receive phone call) cannot use slow mini-sd card (my sandisk) mp3 filename length limited by 40 charachers(i think), cannot see long filename files S75!! I think S75 is much much better and more advanced. (Its cheaper than s75 but expensive than cx75) cid video and unlimited, heavy compressed but fine for phone. But i still think its a fine phone

paeijho

what about the media player,is it good? does it have radio? can it record video depend on remain memory(not limited)? can someone compare it with Siemens S75? i'm a Siemens user and i'm considering to change to one of these phones! THANX!! ps:sorry,to much question!!:-)

ikkuy

anyone has this phone can tell me how is the listening volume? compare to samsung? cuz from my experience, the volume of the motorola mpx 220 is extremly low, had to stick it in my ear, and still can't hear anything.( not sure with other motorola mobile) The listening volume of samsung is loud enough that I don't need speaker phone when i am alone in my room, which I like it a lot. So can anyone tell me about the volume? thank you.

grasada

It already released in Indonesia. I saw it yesterday at Philips Center in Roxy Mas Jakarta. Price: IDR 2.500.000 (around USD 267,00)including USB data cable and 256 Mb memory SD. It looks very beautiful with metal housing. The only disadavntage(according to the sales girl) is that the battery drains very fast. Actual standby time only 2 days max.

Ho

after format the pqi 128, it can be detected now and mp3 playing seems fine on this card?! mp3 file name cannot be too long. too bad no a2dp..

Anonymous

I get one get problem when playing mp3 cannot detect my pqi minisd, sandisk 512 is fine. good looking of good screen.

paeijho

can someone who already has this phone review it.coz i can't find any reviews on any websites at all.how the user interface,camera etc.i would really like to know.THANX! does anyone (rezsa?) know where's the Philips sales & service centre location in Jakarta,Indonesia?coz i can't find it the official website.THANX AGAIN.

vandana

Where do you have this information from? Is Philips really quiting mobile business? What a pitty if this were true.....please give more details

colly

This Phone will never see the light, because Philips Royal Electronics quits the first of January 2006. This had been a beautiful GSM

alan

ChrisWong

It is quite cheap in Hong Kong... just about HK$2280 Less than US$300

bard

Never launching yet in Malaysia.But the prize i have been told around RM1099. Only less RM100 between Philips 960.

hakan

good news for us that philips work with bluetooth for the first time

putu

budi

Pascotam

kamarul

Dimensions, weight, battery life? I hope they're comparable/better than Siemens's ME75. :)

xsos

Anonymous

they suck? you got to be joking..they rox! its phones, pure phones and with amazing batteries! simple, good, reliable phones!

Alex86

looks good..i think its a good phone

zeeshan nasir

nothing special about this phone...

resza

This phone is about to be launched in Indonesia next week. Philips already showecased the product in its service centers. I've tried the product a few days ago and one thing I noted: it has a very good camera, much better than the camera in Philips 760/766. Comparable to S700's camera. The menu is fast, and it is different than previous Philips phones. It has different icons and structures, fast response, and it is very comprehensive. The price will be Rp. 2.300.000 (around 240US$). I think currently this is the best Philips Phones available. Can't wait to buy it next week! BTW, it has infrared port also. The spec in GSMArena doesn't mention it.

Io

finally a good philips phone

Alex

Don't forget Philips makes good TFT's, sound systems, etc. I dunno why they keep their mobile division with the current management. Maybe they simply aren't interested for more...I'm sure they could be one of the world's best handset producers.

Teo

interesting phone... it has good features on paper but i think that philips shouldn't make phones... they suck at that
