Philips Xenium X520 - User Reviews

  • yes, i agree with you.. but please to everybody who read this and if you know where can i find some pleace to buy this product, just leave here your information. and thank you GSM Arena

  • I'm from Indonesia. Great phone, I've been using it for 5 months. Great back up power transfer feature from AAA Alkaline batteries to main battery. Used this feature several time and very useful. Recommended java app = Opera Mini 3.2 for internet browser, shMessenger 3.2.12 for Instant Messaging. But if you're a frequent internet user like browsing or IM texting, the battery will last for 2-3 days only. If you use it for normal calls it will last longer up to 5 days (in Indonesia)

  • philips cells or very costly.....but very spicy.....................

  • hii...i want to buy this phone...how i do it????

  • I hope Philips produce an updated one like this (with better specs please).

  • I hope Philips produce an update one like this, (better specs)

  • I like the phone, it uses a AAA battery, i have lots of batteries at home, energizer, eveready, everpower, panasonic, and more..., i can use them all, for almost 10 secs, hahaha....

  • beautful authenticlook

  • can u plz tell me about its price?

  • Never try opera mini, phone can store 2000 sms. What I found rather limited is calendar entry, I cannot store a lot of events inside.

  • This philips phone support opera mini 4?n how many sms can save in this phone?

  • Gmail does not work with this handset, either using native mail client or downloading apps thru google, on the other hand Gawab mail works fine with native client. anyone knows how to make gmail works ??

  • I tried to find a clock application for this phone, and found a good free-apps in getjar, it called bmddigiclock, once downloaded you need to go to menu-entertainment-java-launch- and select bmddigiclock, the clock will be displayed, press red button to quit.

  • I did not find this phone here in Indonesia, one of my friend bought it in Hongkong for me.

  • great phone!!!design is completely perfect... design follow the function... perfecto...

  • Did philips launch this phone in Malaysia?

  • From Which Country You have taken this mobile I am in india please tell me if you can

  • just got it, I dont like the keypad, and slippery body. I like big display, good calculator menu, good battery, charging thru usb, possibility to use AAA cell, memory card access, card recognized directly by pc whenever the phone is charged thru usb. I still need to find how to install java apps yet, anyone knows ?

  • why philips is not producing high end touch phone

  • eric87,i know your phone cannot put with this type of AAA battery.Thats why you are sooo jealous ..LOL

  • I got about 25 days of standby time, the standby time is really very good and the AAA battery cell is there in case of need of emergency power, with push of a button it can transfer the power from this AAA cell to the phone. Once that is done you can talk more. And you can buy another AAA cell and put in just in case you need more power. The company suggests the use of "Energizer" AAA battery. If you want phone as a phone for talking, this is a phone for you. but if you want an electronic all in one then do not look at this phone. It is a beautiful phone and i am proud owner of it. Smestarz INDIA PS this phone is not available in india as Philips does not sell to indian market. there was a company called "FIRST MOBILE" they did import mobiles of lesser known companies but they closed down. You can buy this phone from Hong Kong.

  • Kornmila. i understand you now.. because it works with aaa battarys.. that is some nice technology right.. lollll

  • Great phone!even Nokia or SE unable to compete with this type of technology.Elegant look and reliable

  • how many days do you get from this phone

  • I like Philips phone, but not available in India

  • I do use this phone. This was purchased in China. It is basically renameed 9@9 J The keys are tacky, the standby time and talk time is good. Worth the price abt 920 RMB

  • having asked the folks from philips about future availability of their terminals in romania, they replied that these will again become available starting with october `09. Is it so....?

  • i like it ! too bad philips doesent sell it's phones in romania anymore !
