Philips Xenium 9@98 - User Reviews

  • it was nice phone which worked with me for 6 years with one battery without changing. it has got very low message memory. I retired it a few days ago. I will go my way with a smartphone (android)

  • why does my phone not have service? is there any settings? i use rogers.

  • Very sad to find that Xenium 9@98 can not include phonebook entry in the SMS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Seems to be a very nice basic phone with extra long batery life. Btw, can it send an SMS to multiple numbers at once?

  • I need information...... Can we use this Philips Xenium 9@98 in USA country? Splecially in Texas. Please inform me because i plan to bring this phone to USA. Thanks

  • Please i am able to purchased one handset of your brand (philips Xenium 9@98, but i lost my manual booklet. Could you please send me a copy for my use. you can use my e-mail address above. Thanks alot.

  • Anyone having any information about that telephone..Please help me about where I could buy that telephone İn Turkey mobile market..Turk philips and Basari are still ice-skating with babies in their hands... I trust you and like you ,the mobile "telephone wolves.." Come on and give a help to your brother....Thanks a lot...

  • some new xenium models ara available in Turkish market..But why can't we see the xenium 9@98, why not? I also wrote to Turkish Philips the importer... with best regards.

  • who can tell me does this phone has alarm clock, reminder and calendar?

  • may i know....this hp don't have calendar?.....organize?

  • No matter the menu language, but I want to know if it supports Turkish menu or not..thanks..

  • all philips instruments and most celuular telephones are available in turkey but why it is not possible to meet the Xenium 9@98* Why?

  • The battery is really good. I've bought this phone and like it a lot.

  • i'm wondering if this has a speaker phone...

  • does this phone have any port for us to put in our ringtone?

  • Earlier someone said it is a good business phone or similar to the Nokia 6230. Most of the current mobile phones have built-in document viewers (if not editors) to view important information or tables while on the move. It would also be a serious limitation without the ability to install business tools to view/edit/create them.

  • yes, it supports chinese language

  • does this phone support chinese language

  • bought this model couple days ago in jakarta. previously use 9@9++, will compare battery life with 9@9++ does it really beat 9@9++, pls advise

  • I don't know why Philips bothers to make phones but don't release them into mainstream market in Malaysia/Singapore. What's the point? No sales office, nowhere to ask etc etc!

  • i have been looking for this model for quite a time now but i can't find it even in the net! is this available in the market already? if yes, where? i hope somebody could help me esp. people from philips.
