Philips Fisio 820 - User Reviews

  • MY FIRST Philips Fisio 820, i can't navigate.

  • I Have used this phone in the past. this phone is great in that time. But the problem is the phone always hang/error sometimes. may be from software problem, so i sell the phone.

  • this phone is a bit nice... the phone that i am using now, its a little bit sot... u know what i mean... and the charger is gone dead.. so i decided to make my own charger, and it works.. haha... i studied it on the internet just to make my own charger..

  • This phone is horrible. I brought this phone in 2005 january & it's been giving problem to me exactly after one year. It hangs & response is very slow. Is there anyway by which I can reinstall the s/w?

  • Considering all the negative comments this phone has got - whoz voted it 8+ for design, features and performance. For itz time it did look fab I'll give it that, but it is - without a doubt - 1 of the most fiddly, annoying mobiles ever created!! Itz definitely not one for texters ... sending a text from this is like getting blood out of a stone. Oh and once you get indoors with it - forget about having reception!!

  • well thanx so very much, i liked the phone only that i got it the uk (england) but am in africa now only now that when i insert in my card it demands for a spck code" which i dont know so dear pliz i will be greatful if this code is sent though my email add'

  • the only problem i faced with the phone is network. in low network area the call got disconnected many times.

  • i have this phone but i am unable to unlock the phone and i also taken the phone to dealer its an AP set can anyone let me know where can i get the code to unlock the phone .TQ

  • Quite a nice phone but cannot install blue tooth in the car blue tooth adaptor which is attached to the cigarette lighter, despite many attempts with the bt function in the phone sycronisation etc. It works with Nokia and Sony but cannot get it to connect with this phone. Anybody know how to attach, would appreciate some help. Cheryl

  • As it was one of a few free upgrades from Orange I went for the fisio 820. Yes people say its a sexy looking phone and I agree with them. It's also small and light enough to go in your jacket pocket without you knowing its there. Yes the menu system has won awards. But that's where the good things end for me. 1. Only stores about 10 sms. 2. Reception for me is pretty bad compared to my old 6210. 3. There are so many buttons to press and it gets confusing so it's not user-friendly. Even after having this for a week, writing 10 sms a day, I still press the wrong buttons - and I have to press more of them. Intuitively, it doesn't work for me. Why should I put up with this? Sexy yes, small yes but there's gotta be something better!

  • network signal very poor, on orange network, i changed phone thinking there maybe a fault, but no change.has anyone else experienced this?

  • its great but i cant get my WAP working and the blue tooth doesnt work with sony erikson phones.

  • hello.can somebody tell me how can i see the numbers of the people i have in my phonebook,because it only shows the names....and another thing...if it is set on silent,when somebody calls me and i do not answer,at the end of the call it makes a sound,how can i get rid of that sound(because it says silent...or??)thank you...

  • I bought Fisio 820 in Uganda in January. It is indeed a good phone with nice facilities but the battery is a problem. It used to last for 7 good days when I just purchased it. But today it can just take a day or two. Unfortunately, we do not have Philips mobile dealers in Malawi. So there is no where I can purchase a new battery. I am afraid, I will just throw the phone away in a few days time. Can you help me?

  • How can i free some space in the phone like that of the game that is havin much load...it is causin a lot of space i need a way to free that stuff out ... !!!!

  • I upgraded my phone August 2002 and wish to god I had never picked the fisio 820, it sticks, it never has signal, should have stuck with the reliable nokia that I had before. Good hint - dont get this one!!

  • most ppl who love this phone didn't own this phone .And ppl who do have them hate this phone , I think this phone not such a good choice .yes it has colour display but now it's not something to be proud of,buy siemens if you Nokia haters don't buy this phillips

  • It is a good phone... but I don't have it

  • - Email client with picture attachments This mean thath i can send e-mail with picture attached and then use it for screensaver or Wallapers !? Please answer me Bye

  • NOW HEAR THIS!!! It looks nice yes.... is light and small..yes. However this phone does have many bad points. I wanted a change from nokia so i went for this one. Hard to get pictures for it. Less customizable than a nokia e.g. can't lower vol of msg's but increase vol of calls. the texting is much more difficult and even when you switch the animations off... it still takes 5 seconds to show you that it's deleted a message. The key lock facility is awful and i wish i'd stayed with nokia now... boo hoo.. 12 months of contract to suffer with this bitch of a phone

  • how much money Fisio 820

  • why fisio 820 stand by and talk time hours less than xenium

  • there is also a agenda and a nice screensaver

  • does this store t68 images? Can it be unlocked easily?

  • As it was one of a few free upgrades from Orange I went for the fisio 820. Yes people say its a sexy looking phone and I agree with them. It's also small and light enough to go in your jacket pocket without you knowing its there. Yes the menu system has won awards. But that's where the good things end for me. 1.

  • VERY cool lookin' phone. It's gonna be my next one. Does anyone know a retail price for Scandinavia (Denmark)??

  • This phone is great. Is there a sites that download own melodu for philips? Are they planning to upgrade its software so we can compose our own ringtones? We could we find cables for this one?

  • Hi: Im using Philips Fisio 820 since 2 months and is found to be good. But also have some difficulties here in singapore like could not find accessories like bluetooth headset,cover for the phone, Picture SMS received from Nokia model phones is not properly aligned or weird, ringtones can't be downloaded or recd from Nokia model phones.But otherwise a good model.

  • Very very very good phone. I thing the best there is.

  • hi i'm richard from pantech.korea i'm working for mobile communocation compaby in korea I would like to know about battery performance of FISIO 820 because this site just indicates stand-by,and talk time so i need more imfprmation about mAh(EX: 720mAh) i hope to see your quick resply!! thanks alot!!

  • Cool design. No games though :-( The ringtones are pretty limited too and no facility for composing your own :-( Anyone know any good websites for ringtones for this phone ??? Haven't used the WAP stuff yet.

  • dunno' budddd

  • One friend gave me a gift of the Fisio 820 but he left the manual in France,can you please help me send me one PDF file on this on this e-mail address?Thanks

  • Close but no cigar. Can't get bluetooth to work and Phillips/Orange is no help ("is that a computer thing?"). Other devices see this one, but it can't detect anything. Otherwise is good. Returned the phone.

  • Oh! So small! Great design. So sophisticated. I was waiting for this phone for long time and finally I got it! This is great phone having great fun! This is unique, great carousal Manu (IF Design Award Winner). Top marks to Philips for making great phone and sexy design. Long battery life, long standby mode, and nice big trucolour display, some innovative tunes! I like Sonar, oh! So cute! It is time for Nokia and others to rethink about their phones. Philips is really winner with this FISIO-820. Congratulation to Philips for innovative and great design phone I love this phone, really must have it.

  • Wow! Wow! So slick and so light! Looking great. Top marks to Philips for sophisticated design. I had really good time and fun with FISIO-820. I can tell u this is superb phone as I read in some international magazines, and its true! Well done Philips!

  • A great phone with great features and an excellent colour screen. Congratulations Philips!!!

  • works great, looks good, feels good. no games though, but no real loss to me. Screen is really good to look at. Keys are well positioned and functional, the whole package is nice to use! As long as you can put up with the lack of games, this is a good bet!!!

  • wow...this gagdet is my favourite handphone

  • fisio 820 is very good

  • shit

  • This could be a great phone! It has everything except games which will be its downfall as all major competitors have games using full colour in their phones.

  • we think there grrrreat!

  • oh another small downpoint, which will no doubt improve, is the lack of ringtones/logos/wallpapers available, but seeing as this phone is relativly new, i expect this will pick up

  • ok so instead of looking at this phone for it's LOOKS (which i actually do like) i am gonna talk about FEATURES!! i've had 3 nokia phones in the past which i have liked. i switched to a phillips phone as it offeres me more functionality and much better features. unfortunatly the only down side so far is that i was not supplied with a cable to transfer images to and from, and i am still fighting getting the e-mail working (though i think this is more of a server issue) there is actually a contrast adjustment, and the battery life is impressive.

  • how do i transfer pic from my com to fisio 820 for wallpaper??cause i can't seem to find the cable..

  • Guys when will this phone be introduced in holland and how much will it cost?

  • Philips make reliable phone, and this one as a very good design and a lot of function for the cheapest price of the market, for me it's the best quality/price rate! Do you prefer a t68i for 1 year and a lot of problem or a fisio 820 for a long long time?

  • This phone is too small, very ugly, childish and lacks triband. Don't waste your money on this crap, buy a T68i instead. Shame, because Philips make great cordless phones - unfortunately their mobiles are substandard.

  • Hi everybody, carrefully look at this product, it is likely to be the best phone you have ever seen. Unfortunately, its most impressives features are hidden but state yourself: - Up to 400 Hours stand-by battery and 5h30 for talk time. Compare with Nokia and Ericsson, it speaks for itself ! - Mechanical robustness. Currently, I think that only Nokia can compete Philips with regard to this feature. - User interface. This is simply the best. The carrousel award the IF design in Hanover CeBIT 2000. - Applications: Many applications have been embedded and Voice Recognition is very efficient. Finally, maybe the only drawback I found is related to the lack of contrast for the color screen display. Yet, this drawback appears also in Trium Eclipse and Sony-Ericsson T68. At the moment I rate it as the Best Choice in the premium tier category of products. Best Regards, 2Pers

  • i want ring tone and image massage.Cant i get it

  • please I need help, how to setting the GPRS setting in this phone cell,step-by step.Please send to [email protected],thank you.

  • Philips Sucks big time, I mean, let them stick with their home electronic products and not envolving their selves in mobiles, Nokia rules cuz its the #1 leading Mobile company in Europe and around the world, and because of some people who consider them self jerks and say they know everything, please don't judge by looking to some pictures of the mobiles here ...go to the retailers and TRY the phone!

  • This is state of the art! Again, after the OZEO and XENIUM a nice design for a mobile phone. When it's available i gonna get one. And, for all those NOKIA (...DISconnecting people...) lovers, throw it away. Nokia sucks!

  • To Mark: I don't know what you're talking about, because this mobile isn't so small. It's just great that a manufacturer like philips who doesn't play a big role in the mobile phone industry made a mobile that is more beautifull and completer than other mobiles of the leading manufacturers. Many people thought that Philips would be backing out of the market, but with this phone they show the opposit...

  • According Philips the phone will be on the market in may.

  • I like this phone. It would suit me better than T68, as it is smaller, lighter, has more pixels, longer standby-time (shorter talk-time though!) and loads of memory to store things. And the USB is also cool. The tri-band in the T68 is nice, but I'm hardly ever in the US. Philips has done a really good job on this phone, compared to its previous models and I am waiting for it to come to the stores!

  • It is one of the best mobile phone that I have seen before. Please mention SAR rate in features.

  • fucking ugly, why philips can get much better?

  • Price is 499 euro

  • Nokia may be better but philips phones work better. I hate nokia

  • althought u ppl say it good but NOKIA still rule!!!!!!!!

  • Someone Please tell me the price.

  • when will be launch in indonesia? price?

  • When & where can get Fisio 820??? Thanks Ta

  • Don't just bad mouthing about this Fisio if you don't know the real value of a mobile phone. Most top phones are expensive but useless because no other top phones can beat this Philips in lasting battery. This is Philips advantage that others envy.

  • This phone is like a dutch woman...fucking ugly

  • I have an fisio 311 and i'm looking forward to by this one. It will be my third philips phone and i love them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • My Xenium 9@9 is fantastic and reliable and this fisio 820 will be my next one ! Perfect, like all Philips'

  • shut up man. When this phones is introduced in the stores you'll see wich one sells better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The philips fisio820 of course

  • Beautiful my ass! The T68 is much better.

  • what the fuck are you talking about??????This is the most beautifull gsm i've ever seen, and it has a lot of functions. So buy it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ugly, ridiculously small and plasticky, like all Philips phones! Don't buy this crap.

  • Holland rules the rest is bullshit, this is the phone to get. SCF fucks you all

  • the answer from sony ericsson is here

  • It's a great phone from the dutch. Philips is still in the race!!!!!!!

  • It's a great phone. I'm looking forward to use it!!!!!!!

  • This is the one I have been waiting for. As finishing touch god created the Dutch!! Long live PHILIPS

  • from the pictures i think its a beautiful phone way to go phillips.
