Philips W832 - User Reviews

  • Yes,if you take the screen away from your ear,gently put your finger on the screen,at the very top,right on the speaker,or a bit left to it.It will open the screen without having to push the start button.PS:I have this phone,and I found this trick a bit ago.Hope this helps. :)

  • Hi, I just received this phone and I discovered a big problem. While we initiate a call, the screen turn off and there is no way to turn it on. Do you know if this can be a setting problem? Thanks,

  • blu life play has a 4-a7-core mediatek proccessor

  • Also known "blu lifeplay"

  • once upon a time I bought a philips mobile phone in Turkey which was sold with the same promise "looong lasting battery". I remember clear that it had the worst battery ever. this is just my opinion from an experince from another phone of philips but I don't believe that this phone's battery will last longer than a day for a normal user. Of course the price is quiet cheap... But I have many questions marks with Philips.

  • I experienced the opposite. Battery is long lasting.

  • No heating with normal operations. Didn�t try high end games.. Gps works fine..

  • You can adjust the focusing setting, it works..

  • Does it have heating problems? Does the GPS work fine?

  • Yes, we have it in Turkey but, in my humble opinion, the price is no good if you think about the price/performance ratio. General Mobile discovery is cheaper and better

  • video camera very very bad continuous focus

  • 512 ram :(

  • we have this model in Turkey. you can find it. good price for this phone.

  • I bought this phone in Russia. It is ok for the price (10000 rubles) but the main selling point, the battery life, is not what it claims to be. The battery will last a full day with regular usage, not the 2-3 days that i was promised. Slightly more than a Samsung or iPhone battery. Also the volume and audibility is very low. If i had my chance again i would buy the LG Optimus L7 II Duo instead.

  • why dont bring this phone to Turkey for sale??? I cant understand!!!

  • You can find it on ebay at US 415.

  • give the web-link pls/ Thanks

  • give WEB-link pls. Thank you

  • U can buy in china, us$340

  • to all buyers: there's one major problem with this phone - the gps doesnt work properly! it's a mechanical fault from the factory. at least here in russia official philips commented that it's a factory flaw. all models imported to russia are subject to this defect. so be careful! philips w832 has a mechanical flaw in design that prevents it from finding gps satellites so google maps doesn"t work

  • You cab fin: etotalk.com or

  • With all the info and hype about all the fantastic phones, no info whatsoever is provided as to where to buy. This frustrates many. Can do something about it?

  • When will be available in egypt????

  • unreal phone
