  • It was also my first phone. I miss its design and simplicity in function.

  • Also my first phone, I'm so proud of this phone having to work in Siemens using Siemens phone while every one else use Nokia. I even replace it with a clear transparent casing I bought in HK. Sadly I left her in a taxi cab.

  • It was the best phone I ever had, never let me down. It was very small at that time. I dropped it several times but it still working normally, I often clean it by washing with water and soap and then after it got dried I turn it on and its working perfectly, amazing isn't... great job from siemens...better use lithium battery so you will not have any problem with battery life..

  • Gosh, I can't take my eyes off this picture, it brings back so many memories. This is my first cell phone, bought it in '99 and back then, it was top of the line. used it to exchange love messages with my first boyfriend :)) It was reliable. Although, it didn't have a clock, nor alarm, or when u got an SMS u could just see the number and not a name. But still, I wish I still had it.

  • Hi frenz this phone gives me the feel of nostalgia as i started my journey of cellphones with it....my dad gave me this after using it for one year n i used it then....all in all a very good and trendy old phone of its time....just like a vintage cars....battery life was xceptional. Thanks n regards

  • If you wanna talk only. Just use C25.

  • WOW! I had this phone 4 a year and a half and i loved it but i was embarest about it don't ask me why!!!!!!!!! IS VIRTUALLY UNBREAKABLE!

  • I gave it to my mather :) now i have sony j5

  • I've had the C25 for 1 year and I think it was 1 of the best phones I ever owned, once I droped it into a toilet and it continued to work normally...that's great.

  • this sucks!!!

  • i'm sorry but my phone(siemens C25) is blocked.when i buy it my mobile was block.How can i unlocked my phone?Please help me!!in this couse i don't have acces to the other utilities.thanks! P.S. sorry but my english is bad.

  • not so bad, you can communicate but i wish they could have cool tunes like Nokia & hot graphics, & time, date, alarm, vibrate. What the hell this phone is bogus.

  • i have this phone for 2 years

  • siemens c25 sucks so big !!!

  • This is super GSM.I like it lot. I have it for 4 week.

  • this phone is the best phone ive had (ive only had 2 phones)but its small light easy to use with a few good features

  • jkghdkghjkghjgfhgdhgj

  • I have this one. good reception OK battery time etc. quite nice. definetly OK ant reliable... BUT there is a problem with the screen. when it is left out in the sun the screen loses some lines!!! I had this problem with an older Siemens as well. I hope thet there is no such problem with the new ones that have active displays instead of the passive ones. I think the problem is with the connection of the screens to the wires. really bad. makes the phone somewhat unuseable. otherwise - if your screen works - a great phone. would like IR and vibration, but then again the new ones have it plus GPRS :)

  • I am not into the high profile of c/phone so I pick this phone. simple but can deliver. no regrets except that the c25 does not recognise the person sending you SMS. but all the rest, it is ok.

  • i have "my" c25 for one year. i've been offered my friends to change my c25, but i still keep it. because it's small and light, easy to use and i could save my money, not to buy others.

  • this is my old celphone and all i can say is that it's tough... mine fell from the second floor of our house, down the stairs, to the ground floor... and nothing happened! small, light-weight, cheap and i hardly lose signal...

  • Well - this phone has everything that a phone should have. And nothing more. If you want to talk - and you don't want to spend a lot of money for the phone this is a good choice. If you want a nice colorful toy with games, icons, lots of melodies...don't buy this phone..

  • i would like to get the manual in the english version as i cant seem to get it through the internet any help?

  • Ada kawan saya tu sekarang guna tipon ni la. Opis dia kat Bangsar, atas bukit. Okay jer kawan saya kata... kekadang tu bila masa nak balik rumah kan, berjam gak dia call. Bila sampai rumah jer dia stop, sambung lain kali katanya ... hehehe

  • This phone is very comfortable. I have this phone since two years ago and I don't have any problem yet. Bravo...

  • it is shite...no graphics...shite ringtones...its falsely advertised!!! I want my money back!!!

  • the carger batterey traveller is easy damage....!!!

  • I mant more now about icons in phone. And when i get messede phone ring very short. What doing?

  • Absolutely no features at all...not even a clock...but it does what a phone is supposed to do....great reception and reliability...no fault there...a bit bland though

  • I think the C25 is a very good phone, but i wish you could download icons for it, like you can for Nokia phones.

  • This is the worst mobile phone I bought, I used it only 1 month. My suggestion : "Don't ever buy this stupid phone ! "

  • Please help me with a operating manual for the C25. Thank you

  • no good tones

  • This phone is good but the display is poor. also you cant search for the telephone numbers alphabetically which is a big handicap. please let me know how to get good new ring tones for it if you can
