  • My mobile siemens c65 but it not opend what reasons

  • missed my first phone. .sorry dad, i've lost it.

  • for short battery span converting battery to 860mah working smoothly and last to 3 days :p

  • my first mobile. I think it was best.

  • oohoohhoh remember it phone...was and wil my best phone....

  • This phone is actually great. I had a phone like this about 3 years ago. But i have used it for 4 years and its amazing that it didn't require me to have a maintaainance for this phone. But its battery life is so short that i have to charge it every 5 hours. TAKE NOTE: without using it!! But this phone is so good..I like to have one again..:))

  • I actually own one, well the CV version, first time I got it was in 2004 and it still works pretty well, the only issue I had with it was the short life spam of the battery, changed like 2 since then, and it's been used till 2008, less often after that

  • Stupid phone! No really! Very short bat. life. VERY buggy. It stoped working after one of those bugs..., it just froze up.. Sad, cuz I kinda liked the animations and the loud speaker there( Worked less then a year for me..

  • This phone sucks! My father got this phone but it keeps freezing. Now, my father got a Nokia 2600 classic last year. No more Siemens mobile.

  • Can anyone say how to flash this C65 phone?

  • What about the battery life? B/cos I used one in d past but it's battery life was very short.

  • What about the battery life? B/cos I used one in d past but it's battery life was very low.

  • Ihave it too. It is very good phone

  • Very good phone!

  • all the best phone

  • Yes, it's very good and strong, I've use it for 7 years, can you believe? But the battery power leaks too quickly, I have to recharge it nearly everyday.

  • that is best i used it in 5 years

  • very very good phone is my 6 years !!!!! :D

  • that phone rules!!!. i use that for 4 years... and a day... it's die T_T. but, is a really good phone.

  • Simply an awesome phn. Used for 5years. Battery is a shit but again why do need to own a battery for 5+ years. Changed once. Still running. Wish they had upgraded this model :(

  • Very good phone,i had one for about 2-3 years, the bad part is the battery. 600 mAh is too low and it wears off very quick. it should have 800 mah at least.

  • your right, Ive been using my cv65 for nearly 5 years and i still love it. battery does go flat quite quickly though. Its the only mobilr ive ever owned and still no plans to replace it.

  • I am using this phone right now and it is not actually that bad except the battery life is kind of short.

  • bought this for $20, with the DCA510 cable. after some Vklay-ing, now the phone has 14MB memory, run Opera Mini 5 beta flawlessly, and play full song track after converting it to IMA ADPCM 8Khz. The keypad is good for fast texters like me, except the small "2" that gets too close to the Wap key. Cons including the battery life, but overall, I recommend this phone.

  • nice one

  • i had this phone it was great but the battery life was s**t other than that it was great now i got a 5800 wich is a fantastic phone

  • this is all the person who think they are professionist in gsm. this phone has came out in 2004. in that year the goodest phone was sony ericsson k300i, wich isn't so different. the only difference is becaue k330i has mp3. but for that year this was a good phone, trust me..

  • I had had this phone as my first phone! Hmm but the battery got old by the years, so my parents gave me one of these new touch phones, in birthday present, with all kinds of stuff inside.. But it is not the same, I'm still so in love with my old blue siemens!!! And I think everyone, there had had this mobil for a while will agree with me..!

  • i had this phone before- to compare with the latest phones right now, this phone is a good one! Nice shots, with a good memory.. This is a good phone!

  • It is one of the earliest phones that allowed many to buy a phone featuring GPRS at an affordable price. The menu system is very friendly. Unfortunately, it is plagued with horrible bugs that most users were dissatisfied and moved onto some other set. Some well known bugs are: i) Hangs when searching names in sub category of address book. ii) Poor rendering of web pages on screen. iii) Very low battery life. iv) Auto shutdown, as battery easily gets displaced. Although, its production is discontinued but it did provide some sweet times for those first generation buyers.

  • To be Honest. I hate this phone! It is a peace of crap. Just have a look at the phone it is painful to the eyes even to look at. The functions on this phone is very bad. The camera is no good, I wouldn't even call it a camera phone. Have you ever tried texting with this phone?? I would say it is a mission impossible to even think about trying to text on this phone. They make is so hard, that you are better off just ringing the person. It will save you hours- instead of trying to send one text. I really don't know how any person on this planet can say anything nice about this phone. If you have this phone I feel sorry for you. I say take out your sim card & throw away this phone. Out of all the phones ever made in this world, this phone IS the worst of them all. Don't buy this phone, and if someone even tried to give you this phone for free, just say "no thank you". Or throw it away when that person is not looking.

  • I had it for 5 years and it was like a best friend 2 me. Although the battery life was bothering, other features were good. I ruined it in a crash and it is in heaven now!

  • I still use this phone. I have it for about 4 years now, and I don't intend to change it. The camera is weak and no mp3 support, but still I think is one of the best phones ever made. I wish a good remake would appear on the market. Best phone on earth! :D

  • OMg the best fone in the world ever!!!!! It's 2009 and I know we have like crazy fones coming in the market everyday wid the whole world in them but this fone is a classic!!! I had this fone in 2007 and it broke one really bad day in hell :( :( :( I wudn't mind useing this fone agagin.....the best fone EVER!!!!!! I still have the broken fone wid me thou :P I love it that much!!!!

  • A friend of mine gave my this phone and i was very hapy to have it allthow the keypad was not so camftebal. I gave it to a friend of mine as well.

  • Its all good but how do you unlock the phoncode if you have entered the phonecode incorrect to many times I really need to know because I have a new sim card and it won't let me use it, please if you have the code let me have it.thanks My Email is [email protected]

  • my siemens C65 was broken..i already bring it to some technician,but they cant fix it..i also bring it to singapore..and its still not work..but this is 3 yrs ago.. :D

  • Uh, to watch 3gp videos in c65, you need to change the phone language to indonesia, then go to 'pengaturan/setting', go to 'mengatur tel.' then open the 'duk. memori'. choose the videos and watch. enjoy! then you can change the language to normal. sorry for the last post. i mean before this.

  • Thats good.

  • Why most of peoples hate siemens ? its gr8! C65 can watch 3gp videos! just u really stupid then cant found the method! Try use file manager. if dont work use the other file manager. in setting then search the ... memory .,[sorry i forgot,] then go to directory you save the 3gp videos. or you can search the app in tegos[dot]ru or search other place. you stupid if not look for the method.

  • I luv siemens than other phone. my favourite phone. i rather choose siemens than nokia. because siemens make inspiration to other phone industry. siemens is the first who created colour phone! it just 4 colours,but i like 4 colour[blue, red, green, and black] than 1[black]. i love siemens. i hate ben-q. its buy siemens and make siemens become benq-siemens and get bankrupty. just, the c65 is the best siemens phone i ever had. becoz i buy it with my work. i will hate who hate siemens mobile. thanks if you read.

  • I'll pray, i'll get it soon!

  • Hated this phone. Battery life was 2 days, and that's a good day.

  • this mobile was really great... it was slow and the camera was bad, but hey - nobody is perfect... it was really cute mobile, and you can't deny it!

  • i had this phone when i was on first year of high school and i love it... too bad i sold it to buy a new one... i hate its camera that u have to attach and de attach.... thats it...

  • sorry but you're wrong. I had this mobile and I can tell you - there's no 3gp format... you cannot watch video... and yes, this mobile is awesom! I don't know why are you complaining all the time... my cutest mobile... i wish that stupid car didn't fu*** him up...

  • I don't know how anyone can say anything good about this phone. Come on this phone is terrible. Its no good at all. Why did they even make this phone? It is so NOT user friendly. The whole layout is no good. Very hard phone to use. Plus it is very slow. End of store, Do Not buy this phone!

  • its a great phone its not what it lock like if you upgrade the firwarm to 50 it will read 3gp videos and elf flashes it will read mp3 files

  • This was my first camera phone. I really liked it. I bought it on February 2005 and I had it for 10 months before I bought a Nokia 6230. It was great and still the friend who bought me this C65 have it. It's a very durable phone, my only complain was batery cover which cracked like 2 months before I bought the 6230. The features were great for low end phones like the Irda and 10mb of memory. At the time when I bought it I was planning on buy this, Nokia 3220 or Motorola C650 and I never regret to choose this over the other two. Only the camera was worse but had betterfeatures than the other phones. It was also cheaper than Nokia and Moto.

  • My old phone. :D I ran it for about 20.000 hours :D Its camera quality and battery was weak but all the other functions was better than its level of phones when first announced. It had 1.5 MB of Java heap memory which even some of the todays smart phones don't have. It can run applications with 5 MB size, unlike some of the Nokia's smartphones which just could'n install the application. You can even see the duration of all the calls... It was one of the best phones of its category and time.

  • I love my phone...is great! From Costa Rica...The Best Phone Ever

  • If your phone is locked. Then you will have to Ring up Siemens some how & they might be able to help you out. If you have no luck, then your better off buying a new phone. Try Nokia, they are 1 of the top phones. Good Luck.

  • oh, why siemens is no longer? i just want to buy it,.. but siemens just have web but no web for her phones, please siemens! be exist again! if you dont like this text complain to my phone number +6285643562134 ! im from indonesia.

  • i have an c65, it very great! but i dont like it screen resolution, just 130x130! bcoz very hard to find games for it! But, i love all siemens phones. Uh, i'm very sad, it no longer exist... bcoz it change to benq-siemens, i hope someday siemens exist again! pray for that! Thx for read! i luv siemens~ :D

  • Just to be R.E.A.L. This phone is a peace of junk. The whole phone is wack. Can any1 find a phone that is harder to use? It takes forever to do the basics, call or text. There is like 10 steps 4 everything. -Not like any Nokia phone, just press the button 2 times & its done. I wouldn't pay $5 for this phone.

  • Aww. My poor baby. Lol. this was my old phone but the battery was stuffed and now it wont even turn on. What an awsome phone it was!

  • I think this phone is the best phone i have ever used as simple as it is yet very complex how many type of this small phones has a file manager that can send games through infrared wonderful.

  • Can u pls help me about my siemens C65. I love to take a picture in my cellphone siemens C65 i have many pictures now. I want to tranfer it to my computer but i dont know how. Is any body know how i can transfer my pictures in my computer?

  • Its all good but how do you unlock the phoncode if you have entered the phonecode incorrect to many times I really need to know because I have a new sim card and it won't let me use it

  • I had ever bought this phone since 1 year ago and used it just for few months then I changed to N7610. Its antenna not a good signal catcher and sometimes it couldn't sent the sms if your finger cover it.

  • I have this one too! It's perfect and it does everything I've ever needed. I can tweak just about all the keys, menus and shortcuts. The thing I like most is the ease that I can install java software and programs. I can control everything on it. People I know with other phones like Motorola and Nokia have to go through a lot just to install something, if they ever can. The only thing that I have to complain about is the battery life. But after 3 years it's normal to be short. I'm really sorry for having to change for a new one as soon as possible.

  • I bought this mobile 3 yrs ago.....its still running smoothly....I m satisfied about the performence.......I can chat over here using mobichat.........can cheq my mail using Opera mini....can play prince of persia which i download from net.......I download various kind of c65 soft from www.getjar.com which make my mobile more efficient......Now I am planning to buy SonyEricsson W810i set.........coz of hogh features but I dont wanna say bad about my c65........coz in low price it gave me high value though its cam quality is not satifactory.........but if u compare price thn i would say c65 is one of my durable best frinds

  • I've had this phone for about 3 years and I'm thinking of buying a new one just because the joystick isn't working very well. Besides that, it's wonderful! Of course it's old so it doesn't have many cool features, but I use it for mobile phone stuff(calls + sms) and some games (WC time) and I can still make the battery last about 3 to 4 days. I've been trying to find a new phone, more or less with the same specs but a bit smaller or lighter and something else with the same price tag as this one, when it was new (150eur) and all I read about the new phones is firmware bugs and breakable keys and batteries that last (only!!!) 3 days with standard use. I've been looking into Sony Ericsson because of the battery time they advertise and I think W200i is a good buy, apart from some bugs in music playback, it looks good. The screen is about the same as this C65, slightly more pixels, same colors. And, above all, a price of about 90Eur here in Portugal. Great for the occasional music listening, games, photo shoot, and calling people, right? Another one I'm thinking of is the Nokia 3500 classic, but guys posting here at the GSMarena say the battery only lasts for 1.5 to 3 days (sux). It has Bluetooth and is smaller, but more expensive (127Eur + shipping). Samsung phones are more expensive for less features and about the same battery life as nokia's, so I've discounted them. LG's, Motorolla have a bad rep... I really wanted a new Siemens, but the brand no longer exists :( I've had a M35 then this C65 and now? Any other thoughts on other phone models that I could look into?

  • Its a gr8 phone and I've had mine 4 four years! I like it.

  • this phone is superb!though it has poor battrey.but it is ok.please how do i: 1;unlock the phone code? 2;use or set the remote sync? 3;download mp3 sounds and video play back? or anything you can tell me on how to improve on the phone?your help is needed.thanks for your [email protected]

  • I had a C70 (it's almost identical) the most apreciable think is an excelent design. Also good features.The only problem with it is the battery.

  • ideal mobile phone...i luv it..

  • Best quality of the phone i found was the 100 received/dialed/missed calls feature... I can tell how many times someone has called and at what times, Had no luck finding this feature on other phones... Too bad Siemens is no more...

  • Who have an blueprints for siemens c65

  • Very durable.Has very long sound recording time[about 2hrs]although has no usb device.Quite simple outlook,but very good and durable.

  • It was cheap and durable. Maybe little bit hard to use but I managed to make phone calls and send text messages with it. I have swimmed in the lake of Saimaa with that phone. I just removed the accumulator and drained phone for a one day. And It is still working :)

  • i have c60 (siemens) but his language has changed, i want in English pls if any one know to change pls write to my mail. thank you

  • This cellphone is very durable!!!... everytime this phone accidentally fall out from my hands and bump on the floor, it does'nt commit any internal damages.... that's the reason why i've said its durable...uhmmmm, I think i've had brag it 30 times, well, it's still working!... it's almost perfect, but the problem with this phone is that it does'nt have a video recorder and memory card slot...

  • i want to adjust clock of siemens c65 can any body help me, if any body can help then plz

  • i love this phone.it's true that the battery sucks, but the phone looks good(i have cv65).

  • The only way is to transfer the files in amr format (but it doesn�t sounds good) or wav (but wav files needs more space even than mp3)

  • This phone can�t play mp3 nor .3gp Those files aren�t supported. And I�m so sure because I had this phone since February 2005, on December I bought a Nokia 6230 and used both phones. I tried to transfer mp3 files and .3gp videos from 6230 to C65 trough IR and never worked. But in July 2006 I sold my C65 to keep only the 6230. C65 is a good phone except for camera. For the guy asking for better camera performance: You can�t improve your photos. Isn�t a good camera. But come on, anyway is a very good phone and what can you expect for a low end phone?? The only problem I had is that my battery cover broke after a year of use. But I bought a new original cover and was really cheap.

  • can u help me? how can i transfer my mp3 songs as a ring tone to my phone?

  • the phone is good but very slow and the camera noise is stupid how do i get it off? acsualy peace of plastic sh*t !!!

  • i want to play mp3 sounds on my c65 how can i do that can u please tell me by sending me an email.

  • hi dear i want to play mp3 sond and 3gp sons how can i do that can u tell me dear plsssssss

  • "can some 1 tell me how to turn the sound of the camera" if you mean turn off the shutter sound, maybe setting the phone on silent helps

  • how can i activate the GPRS service of my phone?? thank you very much! :)

  • can some 1 tell me how to turn the sound of the camera

  • I used this phone for 2 years and it served me well. Had common problems like it shutting off and freezing, but for a cheap phone with a camera, what do you expect. I have just bought a Sony Ericsson z710i and i love it. My problem now is that i want to get pics off my C65 and onto a computer but i don't have a data cable, and don't have the original software (that might have come with the phone, i can't remember) so I'm going to try to use the Infrared port between the phone and my laptop. does anyone know where i might find the software to do this?

  • I have siemens C65 phone but accidently changed its language. please let me know how I change its language to English. thanks.

  • its battery is weak and it freezes alot

  • the fone is kinda cool but atleast find a way to reduce the camera noise.

  • I love it.The sound with the camera is kinda dull.but you'll get used to it.

  • garbage phone freezes alot

  • its a nice phone, bttery life sure is less, some times hangs but does well with other softwares, camera has a real terrible loud noise,

  • A good phone if you know how to use it. Indeed, a short life for battery, and only 2 to 4 standby days.

  • its a nice phone like as Pictures nice tunes by irda and i required c65 panel in hyderabad

  • It's not actually what it looks like.. its an okay phone but not as sexy as it looks!

  • i thank siemens for the wonderful products they have been producing the c65 was a wonderful one cos its the one am using and its display was a wonderful one i love it .

  • this phone sucks balls, it has bad battery life, pictures suck, i couldn't even get someone to buy it for 20$, even though i bought it new for like 80.

  • This is truly a pieace of crap i have been through two of these phones in a 6 month period and they periodically turn off when they please and the battery meter is unpredictable i have taken it off charge and it says its full but when i unplug it gives me a battery low warning and turns off

  • the best phone i ever had. ;)

  • at last i got connected to my pc with this HS as a modem !!!!!!!

  • as I bought this phone I was so dissapointed, a sample of it is the camera it has a poor picture, the opening of applications is so slow oh' another is the battery is for one day only. Can I ask a question? How can I unlocked my phone I mean when I try to open some features the screen say Phone Locked it's my friend fault you know....

  • @Sandman:You ever heard of contrast?

  • People, come on! This phone came out how long ago? Over 2 years ago I know that much! It costs how much now days? I have no idea, but when I got it around 2 years ago it costed �40. It was pretty much the ONLY camera phone for that price. It is actually an ok phone. Yes mine froze sometimes, it was fairly slow and the screen wasn't that good quality but what do you expect for that price? An amazing work of art? I actually adored this phone. I used it for over a year and then got a new phone due to boredom with this one...... I bought the Samsung E530 and within a year of it I am looking for a cheap replacement......... Seriously lay off this phone for 1 minute and enjoy the greatness of this phone for the price range.............

  • �t�s a terrible phone, it freezes all the time, the battery lasts only for one day. I had problems since i bought it, the only reasonable aspect about this phone is the looks...

  • I totally agree Sandmans opinion! And one very annoying feature more: 2-button is much smaller than other buttons.

  • i lov it..i can 'write' sms without see the handset..the handset is so soft & easy to use. one of the problem : sometimes c65 turn off by it self although the batery bar still full. i've lost it 2 weeks ago =(

  • This phone is terrible. It locks up from time to time, the screen is too dark, battery is pitiful. Interface is non-intuitive..photo quality is garbage. I want to throw this phone out the window.

  • hi guys. i need 2 no if u can record songz on da c65!? please help. il b checin 2 c if any1 has replied! please do! love ya bye xoxoxox

  • I had the c66 for the last two years, it is the southamerican version of c65. It's a GREAT mobile phone and very different to other models when I bought two years ago. A lot of features and functionalities i can't find all together in a lot of mobiles of today. It freezed just three or four times in two years,in spite of I turn it off every 15 days or more, and the battery charge lasts 3 days in normal use. I have lost it two days ago and hope my new Samsung cover my expectations.

  • it's sad but it's real :( i found that C65 doen't support 3d games after reading that on C65 forum it was www.c65world.tk as i think but the best thing in this phone that it has a nice voice

  • hey alex you can play video by using memory assistant or you can download one java video player so you can play such videos without using your mem assistant..sorry for later reply :D

  • hey dito! how can i put and play videos on my phone? pls help man! tnx!

  • I've had this phone for a half year, so these are it's pros and cons by me: Advantages - Small and light-weight - Good screen, easy-to-use menu, support for themes - Good polyphonic ringtones - More than enough memory - Great phonebook (so many fields...) - Good camera, the pics look OK on the screen - Functional IR (unlike Samsung models) - Wide range of applications (calendar, appointments, tasks, notes, dictaphone machine, time zones, alarm cock, calculator, unit converter, stopwatch, countdown timer) - Very cheap Disadvantages - Very poor battery life (1 DAY only) - Very slow at times, especially when opening games, applications (opening the image editor takes a full minute) It's was a very good choice, but today there are better phones for the same amount of money (Samsung, Sony Ericsson...)

  • how can i put videos on my phone can anyone help me????

  • i bought a second hand c65,the problem is, I cant change the tones for calls and messages. please help.... tnx

  • Hi,all,i have a question,i have a Siemens C65,and i would like to use it in Alaska,but i do not if the charges would work,properly there-110v-Siemens Charger says-220-240v.Answer my question soon if you can,please:) Thank you:)

  • hey guys wanna 3d games for your c65 i have worms 3d and rally 3d free and full for c65 on my forum and there are a lot for c65

  • had this phone for 6 months, so i think my comments are valid, it's a bit all over the page, the advs/disadvs are scattered: -has an ok battery, good enough, I only charge it every 3-4 days -the camera is poor (I have a dslr so i'm biased, but they could have done a lot better, don't buy this phone because of the camera) -the phone processing speed is slow -adding to the last point, it's good enough, I don't play games (which are too slow) but for some applications, it's only 1 extra sec max to load -it's only crashes when you try to upload fancy animation, it's prob the same problem as a computer program timing out in loading, again comming back to the processor -it's solid, i have literally fliped a phone instead of a coin (crazy hey?), it deosn't budge, you don't notice the scratches, which I only got from running with it in the same pocket as keys -the sound is great, my friends can hear birds from outside my window on the phone -it's user friendly -i'd swap the camera for a radio any second -can't switch off the annoying camera noise -has good features -IR actually works, unlike some nokia phones -excellent price, for the equavalent of some brick with nothing, you get a great phone -stylish (relativly), light weight + small size (my first considerations) that'show i feel about my phone, it's sturdy and can take heaps of battle damage (I move a lot in the worst enviroments), it does everything it's meant to, and it looks and feels awesome, plus it's damn inexpensive. what more you you want?

  • This phone is really very good if u ve not seen any camera phone bcos camera is too pethatic as wel as batery is only for keeping in on for the whole day but not to use your mobile at all becasuse if talk there is a risk that batery will be consumed beforew evening.market value is very poor since no body ll be willing to buy it.

  • This phone died in one year. Since the first day, the camera crashes a lot, when I select one option in the menu, sometimes appears another one, and many other issues. The other day, i went to make a call, and oh surprise!, the screen is all black with some stripes. The phone can make sounds,etc... but screen is off!! The best thing on this phone is that you can see how many time are the lost calls, so you can know if you have a really lost call or only a "blink" I don't recommend, is very unestable and have a short life.

  • Hi! I read all things about this phone. I think that this phone is verry nice, a lot of featiures, nice design, but...the batery is poor. Why Siemens put this bateries on their phones? is a mistake because people ar not satisfaid. anyway, is a good phone, and i recomand. cyao!

  • Good cost/benefit ratio. Good sound quality in phone conversations. Though I've tried, I can't get mine to freeze or hang up. The battery is a problem... I got a longer life by turning the phone off and leaving it charging overnight. Removing animations also helps. Yes the processor is quite slow... no good for impatient people. IR works fine, a little slow prob. because of overall phone speed. I can't turn off that very loud shutter sound and there's nothing in the manual about it. Still I recomend the phone to budget-minded users who want a decent, nice-looking mobile with a good set of features and a large memory. But it wont be the battery to satisfy you.

  • Well despite what people say, I think this phone is ok. I've had it for over a year and it has been very good for its price at the time. �40 when camera phones were quite new, it is still more modern than some of my friends' phones. Yes it has frozen a few times,but it is easily fixed just take the battery out, its camera is acceptable and it is relatively easy to use. Although I will be glad to get a new phone, I think this is a very good option with those who want a decent phone with little cash to spare. ***

  • There has recently been a competition where this type of phone could be won. It was a poorly designed internet-competition, so I was able to write a script and win many many of these. They ALL have battery problems. I have begun to return each and every one. The battery life is shorter than what the specs say, so I want another battery (and have already received a few). So I would say: check the official specs (i.e. the guide you got with the phone) and see what battery life is guaranteed. If you're under it and within warrantee (6 months on the battery, normally), return it.

  • I don�t believe in what u say about this phone is very good and i have very good results with it, apart from that if you want a better phone please try to pay more for it, buy a different phone it�s simple. I like it and it�s very good. i suppose that if you get different things to include in the phone like ringtones or wallpapers you will see that it gives good results.

  • yep it have lots of problems i have siemens cv65 and the battery life is short, it crashes all the time but it can read 3gp files, wav, mid, amr, java but the quality is poor

  • It seems most of the C65 have three major problems.1-Extremely short talk time 36hours, 2-the phone hangs most of the time and 3-the speaker is of very poor quality. Does Siemens ever read user comments? What has Siemens done about this anomalies? Experience with the C65 has taught me not to trust the official tech specs. I would rather relay on GSmarenas'reviews and user comments.

  • i have a cv65 and it sucks! the battery life is too short, it crashes all the time...poor phone...

  • Do not ever buy this phone!!! All romanian people have a poor sentiment aboit this phone. It has a bad quality fabrication....don't buy this phone! is the mistake of the life. siemens mobile phones are not good....bad phone!!

  • I've had this phone for little over a year now and it crashes all the time. Yes it has a lot of features but wot use are they if they keep freezing on you? The battery has completely died now and i'm over the one year warranty so i can't return it. So i bought a Siemens SF65 3 weeks ago. It is nice looking, and much more reliable. Although it doesn't have as much features as this phone, its camera is much better - you can store photos at over 1100 x 800 pixels. Check it out if you're not happy with this phone. Its on this website.

  • c70 is like c65? am i right? c70 has ptt...the rest of the features are the same... c70 is a nice fone w/ IRda capability...

  • Hy! I want yuo to know that this phone is simply THE BEST in its class and the best i`ve ever had. The only problem i have with it is the short battery life, it never freezes at me. What i recomend you to do is to visit www.siemens-c65.tk and www.todoc65.tk and to download all the kits to transform your phone into a beast. My phone now plays wav files with the quality of an mp3. You can put a wav as a ring tone. and thats not all! I recommend this phone to EVERYBODY!!

  • this is my first siemens phone. it is an excellent basic camera phone. very user friendly. good ir capability. problem is often hangs and short battery life.

  • i've heard i can instal mp3 soft on this phone how can i instal if its exist and from where can i buy it to instal read my option pls

  • I like the features & the camera is great. Very attractive & user friendly. I really love the camera. One of the best phones i bought.

  • i like thhis phone very much.... siemens is the best

  • Hy.This phone is great, but there is one problem....the batery...I read all your post's and I will try to charge it 24 houres for 3 times and I hope the life battery be longer.The camera works perfectly and take's good pictures.The IRDA work's also perfectly and I had put some games on the phone.You can find on the net the soft for this phone.I will write one more post after 3-4 days...to tell if the baterry work's loonger.See ya.

  • It appearance is very nice and has some good features but there are some problems with it .It battery does not last long and often freezes.

  • One of the best phone i ever had. I love the features & very user friendly. I love the camera as well. Good job Siemens

  • The only thing I don't like is the battery, just only for half day, after that I must recharge it...... when SIEMENS give a good battery for they products ????

  • That machine doesn`t work. It`s becoming disconnected permanently. The technical service (IS2 in Madrid) says that it is a defective serie and it doesn`t have any possible repair. Better you should not to buy it.

  • this is a great phone for beginers many options..and is slick and fun to play with ...good job siemens

  • It's a very nice mobile phone with userfriendly menus but ... the battery is a real disaster. After sending 2 mms, calling 15 minutes and adding 2 entries in the phone book I have to recharge it !! I bought a new battery ( same as original ) ... still the same problem ! With my oprevious Siemens mobiles ( MC60, S45, C35, S25 ) I never had problems with the battery. Is it possible toput another type of battery in this mobile phone ?

  • anyone and everybody that had a bad comment about this siemens C65 phone ...., WHY ???? Isn't it had a LOW PRICE with MAXIMUM features !!!! Guys... sometimes u have to get a realized for vote something !!!!! Bravo siemens !

  • I had this Phone for about a year. I kept it in my pocket during school (we're not allowed our fones in school). Beacause of the bad keypad locking,(it can be unlocked by pressing 1 button), it kept on unlocking and either calling people, going online, or playing sounds. I was nearly in detention 2ce!!! Another problem is the bad picture quality, the pictures are rubbish even for a phone. It is also hard to see the screen in bright light.

  • i hate the phone the batter quality is poor its screen is hard to see out in the sun my list can go on the only good thing about this phone that it has a very large memory

  • Simens Sucks but the phome rox BB

  • This C65: is enough versatil and attractive in its design; I consider that it would have to improve as far as the resolution in the camera and the duration of the battery.

  • this is a verry good phone.....i like it so much. it has infrared, large memory and the picture quality is verry good. it is one of my best phones.

  • I realy like thos phone. wap on in it is poor but is ok and in work's

  • This is one of the best phones on the market at the prise. A 250 to 300 dollar nokia in australia cant equal what it does. Also like other people who have replied to other opinions the battery does last for 3-4 days and mine has never crashed. Its easy to use has 10mb inbuilt and takes a far better picture than more expensive phones.

  • i don`t know what kind of c65 you fellas got cause i have mine for about three months and guess what ?... i work`s perfect...never crashed battery lasts for about 3-4 days...so nice phone.maybe your did not buyed it from the right store and it was used very much...bye

  • the battry is very good but in case of 1- reducing both lllumination&contrast (4 me i make the lllumination =10/100) 2- adjust screen saver in (energy saving) position i tried 1&2 and my battry remains 4 and 1/2 days and i dont find any sol to prevent camera voice??? even though closing all ring tones sorry about my english iam 4m egypt

  • Can someone please help me disable the fake shutter sound for the camera please... or at least point to the page in the manual that I didn't think to goto Thanks (joystick still ticks me off sometimes, but you can easily get around it)

  • Had it for 3 hours, bought it online, my thoughts are: -good general phone, good weight/size (but heavier than it looks) -not so good ergonomically, hard to find the right 1 handed grip -joystick is a pain in the butt, (personally resloved to never ever get a phone with a joystick) -it's locked up 3 times (camera, camera, settings) -battery comes half charged, haven't recharged yet -intuitiative menus/function, user friendly modes and user manual (only needed to use it to switch off T9) -no asian keys -weak cam, but as if you expected anything but -bad ringtones -haven't tried IR -ok sound recording, picks up birds very well for some reason... that's all for now, to summarise, it's a decent phone, great for the price ($100~ in Sydney) but wished i'd got one with no freaken joystick. (anyone wanna trade?)

  • I agree the phone is slow. Another inconvenience is that the battery dies pretty fast. But in general, it's a good one.

  • hi im from panama and i bought this C66 5 days ago. well... this is a great phone, easy to use, graphics, themes, sounds, signal boost, looking.. BUT is suks at bettery life (about 1-2 day and its complety empty) also the camera is very cheap 350x288 and as we can see when they are downloaded to pc the corners are kinda smooth because is a CIF camera (object in the pictures look like spheres). another con is this phone is that is VERY SLOW when u run appz and games, they take to much time to load. the best thing in the phone is that is very resistant and its 10 mb excessive memory =) using the ubs cable i loaded more than 50 games and appz in this phone.

  • Nice menu, display, features, but battery has a law life-time. Overall, a good phone at a low cost. I give it 8.5 because of the battery.

  • hi i'm from venezuela... i wrote grate things about this phone before but i've change my mind. the battery life is to bad it joust last to days, i got a kyocera blade and it's battery lasted 7DAYS... and i'm not kiding the phone also is tooooo slow... the one good thing that a can say is that the phone it is realy resitant the other day it falls and it shattered all...but i was able to fix it by myself and about the c66 and the c65 they are the same but the c66 is only in brazil and colombia, couz in venezuela and argentina is only the c65

  • I thought that it was a great phone.. but he disappointed me SO much... Let's see.. In every morning, when i switch it on.. he collapses!!! x( I switch it on again, 2 mintes and.. he collapses again.. and so and so.. After about 10 sitch ons, if he won`t collapse, the keys won`t work easily.. What i mean is that you have to push 3 times a key to work... It`s annoying, i don`t know what to say... The battery lasts only for maximum 2 days... :(( An advice.. pls! The camera.. eh.. the camera is quite good.. what you have to do is clean the lens.. :)

  • Slow, has bugs, crashes when using camera.

  • That phone have so many bugs, the camera quality is so poor, but that have .wav tones, so LOUD and clear, thats big, and looks like a interplanetary comunicator. So the games are good, but the menu navigation is really low, the pictures (by the camera or not) looks so blue, strange, so strange, the voice recorder is so poor, the quality is horrendous, no one can know what this is saying

  • it sucks the camers is poor quality at any time fuzzy the pixel quality is very bad the battery life is nearly non existent the battery is loose the upgraded firmware yeah thats **** also and design not bad looking phone the built in signal booster is great overall it has a lot of cons and not so many pros

  • Its A Great Phone , i bought it from one month ,, its the best of his class, the only prob is that the battery lasts for only 2 days or 1 and half, with the lastest firmware too.

  • It's really a great phone & i'll recommend it to anyone. But I have a problem in my USB cable, it didnt work in my PC (although it have a minimum system requirements. Can somebosy help me to set up my USB?

  • maybe C66 is not sold only in Brazil (i mean, someone said it was sold in S. America, so there is an exception) ,'cause mine is C65

  • This phone is great, reliable fully customizable although the only con is the battery duration but if you lower the light intensity and contrast a bit it will do great. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN C65 and C66 is that C65 is the version for USA, C66 SOUTH AMERICA the phones are completely the same. satisfied with phone, low price and very functional

  • this phone has so many secrets to explore. i downloaded the developers' kit from the siemens website and was able to make my own themes for my C65. i realized how fully customizable this phone is. i had made a theme showing my own background image at the menu. Also, I made my SMS background an animated gif. it's wonderful that you can change all the colors of the texts, graphics, lines, prompts, selections, ...all of it!

  • Well, I just actually ordered my CT66 siemen in ebay today. I am also wondering what are the differences between c65 and ct66. Is it the size? CT66 looks great anyway. CT66 targets all the youth coz of its good features. Thanks,

  • im from colombia, i bought my c66 last night, and i was curious: what are the diferences between c65 and c66? and also why is there not much info on c66 on any site, nor pictures, not even in the siemens site. sorry to post that here but, theres no c66 review/info page on this site

  • hi, hello i'm from venezuela and i got this phone last month and i will said that it is a very easy phone to use, but i have some reviews; first the batery is small and it doesnt fit very well...the camera is good but not if you are using it at night... in other hand the phone is very easy to use and it is very resistant, i went to the beach with it the last weekend and it wast very resistant to the sand and falls. i do recomend this phone for a teen

  • Yeah, it has picture phonebook. =)

  • Could anyone tell me if this phone has picture phonebook??

  • This phone is the best.It has everything you need.It's just great I recommend it to everyone.

  • i want to know what video type or extension need files to have to be played

  • Bought it yesterday.. :D And I like it!!! :) Nice screen, good batery life (although i didn`t format it.. :D) The camera`s pictures are clear on the phone`s screen `cause it`s a good screen, not a good camera! :)) P.S. I like it.. :)

  • This phone is very good. So ..

  • I bought this phone second-hand on a whim after selling off my SX1 and having to use my 2+ year old S55 as a backup. The thing is, I never expected a mid-range phone to be this good. The C65 has a nice and bright screen with good color saturation (a bit on the blue-ish side). The number of lines Siemens successfully managed to fit into 130x130 pixels makes this one of the more useable screens around. The unified inbox where all missed calls, messages and reminders are centrally stored makes accessing these items a simple one-click process. The phone OS is fast with great response making SMS T9 a breeze to use. I was very surprised at the Java performance where load times were acceptable and in-game performance was no cause for complaint. Camera is not VGA, so the resolution is standard 352x288 pixels, but given sufficient lighting, pictures taken come out clear with good color balance and warm natural tones. The built-in 10mb of memory is generous given phones of this class, unless you're planning to store videos. The C65 from Firmware 33 onwards have the ability to play videos, but not record them. Anyone familiar with past Siemens phones (x45, x55 series) will greatly appreciate the amount of thought and enhancements that went into making the new x65 interface not just more intuitive but a lot more functional. Plus, bundling that into a compact little package with soft, tactile keys, a decent camera, 10mb of free memory, an address book that can store 1000 contacts and a bright screen, makes the C65 worth more than a second look.

  • As far as I'm concerned,the Siemens C65 is a really wonderful phone,especially in design,sreen,operating system.However,there are still some small draw backs in battery,also the pictures it takes are not so clear as expect. Generally,to purchase it at such a low price,you could not expect it is perfect,it's comfort.

  • this fone is great and cool, I like it very much, c65 is a little better than nokia 3220

  • Really, very good telephone, functionary, pretty, cheap, 3 bands, infra, camera, mms, ems, sms, email, synchronization, agenda, notes, wap, CONGRATULATIONS C65 CONGRATULATIONS SIEMENS!

  • This phone was capable of making phone calls until they couldn't. I would've liked if it had the capability. People I know could use it.

  • I might get this phone from UK because it has a camera, infared and is only �39.95 from phones4u!! now i think 4 that price that is AMAZING!!

  • about the battery life.. try draining it for one day.. charge 24 hrs.. drain it again.. charge it again.. drain it and charge it.. i think do that 3 times or 4 and after.. you'll get the best battery life ever.. trust me.. it friggin works

  • the most horrible mobile i've ever used! (including the old samsung N191

  • purchase it ! it rulls ! very good phone !

  • 22 July, 2005 Dear Reader, I am going to purchase Siemens C65 set. So, I just want to know what your opionin would I purchase or NOT. Kindly advise me soonest. I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks & regards, Zia

  • a very good phone ! i recomend it to everyone !

  • ya i think dis is da worst phone ever the battery life sucks and the camera ya like some1 else said NO its better with out it, and come on people 10mb? wat is that when you are taking pictures! man i do not recomend this phone 2 any1

  • ne1 hu dont like dis fone shud (toot) off cuz this fone rocx ne1 hu doesnt fink so need there eyes testin nd if there fone keep crashin then its prob cuz they dont no how 2 work it properly!!! dis fone is gd go fone go fone hehehe lol

  • i am condsidering buying the siemens c65... i just have one comment though, for all those that are commenting on signal and battery life, it follows that when you have poor signal, your battery life goes down with it. It a fact for all phones. Maybe your gsm provider needs to install more sites to provide better signal. one thing though, how i wish they added a card slot feature. 10 mb memory is nice, but addtitional memory neber hurts. it kinda limits the capablities of your phone. unlike the most nokia phones that only has 4 mb of memory, using a high mb memory card compensates for it. Signal is not a problem here in my country... i just hope that they already have the latest firmware installed on the c65 they are selling here... good luck to all!

  • i heard some good and bad about this phone.. i have a samsung p730 (which battery drain like crazy when you play games) now and getting this phone as a backup.. hope it's a good phone

  • This phone is the worse phone i ever had, it's crash 2 times, many many problems, also you cant sell this phone, nobody wont something like this. If you want a good phone, this isn't the right one, so thinck twice before get this very bad phone... the camera is is... is better without that camera....

  • I had this phone once and it was utter rubbish, it kept making a high pitched bleeping sound and switing itself off, it also cept crashing when I was in the middle of something. I have a Samsung D500 now and I couldn't wish for a better phone, I think its safe to say that Siemens better get their act together on this one, well in my opinion anyway!!!

  • i got dis fone 4 crimbo nd it absolutely rocks!! it has everything an exepnsive fone wud hav but its half the price all i can say is BBUUYY TTHHIISS FFOONNEE!!!!

  • I have this phone and it grew on me though the features could have been more funky or techy. I mean it should have at least a video clip capability having a 10 Mb capacity should prove its worth. The battery also is not that good. My Battery lasts for at least 2 1/2 to 3 days but I wish it would last longer. It does not include a data cable that you can use. not unlikesony Ericsson and Motorola. Finally the audio player should play all types of wav files so that you can download all of them. I downloaded a Kill Bill wav file on it and it does not play. It says error cannot be played. But a Tweety bird wav file plays fine. It chooses the type of wav file it plays. The cool thing about it is it is modestly priced has a big pohone memory, the camewa is good, you can set what you have recorded as your ringtone and alarm clock, even wav files can be your ring tone. But compared to E398 of Motorola. It is way behind. For the same price range Motorola E398 outperforms most phones in the market even Nokia phones. It is at par with 7260 or K750.

  • Can U tell me about the display and about the sounds >? the display it's clear , I mean grat colors and great clarity ? thanks

  • In Philippine money.i think it's 3,500(if lock)and if it is unlock i think it's 5,000 or more. I like this Phone.it's very good fone.. besides, its affordable. BUY THIS FONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i want to know where i can find the clip-it covers, somebody helpme please, any notice.

  • This phone is awsome looks cool....sweet...good works...just love it :)

  • this is such a great phone, i have used this...but the phone's battery is not so good...but his camera and functions are gud for my use....

  • i already have this phone.. it's great.. just perfect.. :))

  • Very good phone although I am not pleased with the battery performance too much and the battery cover is a nightmare for me. Switching off needs a quick fix from Siemens company, my model fortunately has newer firmware. It is worth the price but if you want something special...simply pay more for something else and don't complain :-))

  • for me? it's good phone, not so bad camera and pictures and 10mb memory, for me it's all I need. poland.

  • Great phone. Good thing in reason able price.

  • and what about the camera.. it's a cell phone for christ's sake, what's wrong with you guys... if you want hi-res go buy yourself a camera...

  • Not very pleased with this phone at all. Keeps switching itself off and doing things it shouldn't. Very slow (switching on, moving through menus etc) and reception always goes when in my pocket!

  • it is rubbish total and utter rubbish i had mine since christmas turns itself off doesnt vibrate and only rings when it feels like it there all possesed they do what they want

  • The reason why the phone automatically switches off is the bad contact of the battery to the handset body. To fix this you need to slot in a small piece of paper at the bottom of the battery to prevent it from sliding downward. It worked for us. Goodluck to all siemens fans including my husband!

  • I have this phone now for 5 months, and it`s not so good what i was thinking it would be. Camera have poor resolution and displey is very not frendly to user, looks is good but I need more to be pleased with the phone, now I`m swiching to LG C3310, simens c 65 is good phone, but it isn`ta very good, so sorry, not for me.

  • hi i bought 8 months ago this fone is very pathetic battery timing and signal prob.hang and ring tone prob yar i m totaly fed up about this fone set.

  • sorry realy sorry to everybody which bought this phone i had this c65 from 10 months software is terrible phone switch off automatic if you drop it will be dead for ever i realy hate now this phone it cant recognise nothing not usb not wire not data cable

  • Have it over 5 months now, am very pleased ith it, design & features are great. Luv the infrared port, works very well. No network problems in Europe. Functional software-suite downloadable from the website for free. Pix are lowres but that was to be expected. Pleased customer.

  • H-O-R-R-I-B-L-E... Total waste of money. Phone hangs. Vibrator suddenly stops working..Lousy low-res camera..IR connectivity is extremely random. Phone just does not recognize. All in all, waste of money product from Siemens.

  • i bought this phone six months ago and have had nothing but problems i am now getting the samsung e720 and i will never buy a siemens again i have sent it back twice within the first month i would not recomend this to anyone

  • c65 is very good mobile phone how can i copy the mp3 file in my phone?

  • hi i like ths phone ..plz any body tell me how isnt price in pakistan c65 siemens..byee take care

  • very cool phone. I had the CV65 and I have converted it into a C65, never had problems, the memory is only 10 mb but it is good for all your files. The SMS capacity is 100. To correct the auto-turnoff error you have simply to upgrade your phone with latest firmware.

  • At the FIRST look, a good phone. I have it for 6 months, but i had a lot of problems. The first was with the vibrator, then 3 days I had problems with network(a friend with the same model near me not!!!), sometimes turns off from itself, one day every move of the phone turned it off. Sometimes the dislay goes black, and now, all of a sudden my keys work not. 2, 5, 8, and left softkey only if I press the 0 key before. The 8 key turns the phone off. I don�t recommend Siemens to nobody!!! Think longer before buying such phones!

  • Something happend with my Siemens C65, the keys "1" and "4" doesn't work and the "7" has the function to turn off. Help please. thanks.

  • hi, im thinking about buying the c65, but just one question...on average how many text messages can it hold? i know it has 10MB memory but i dont really know how u convert that. thanks very much

  • seems to be good, and choose the samsung x600 is alot better than this phone

  • Have just bought a CV65. How can I update the firmware through the Infrared port? Cos when I run the firmware update it doesn't detect my phone. Do I necessarily need the USB cable to upgrade the firmware?

  • I have one big problem about siemens c65: I can't enter the menu, because the menu icon does not appear! Can someone help me about this problem?

  • my brother uses cx65 itis very good phone so i wanna buy c65 but i'm not sure. becouse i'm worying to freeze it. another decision of me is samsung x600. sonmeone can help me. which phone i must buy siemens c65 or samsung x600.

  • Just downloaded the software update. My phone seems much quicker for it now, I'm pleased. Hopefully it won't play up on me again now!

  • The latest official firmware is 25. Download it from siemens site, upgrade your phone and it will never freeze or crash again. you would need dca500 serial cable to do the job.

  • I've had Siemens all my life and I read about this Siemens C65 and said why not give it a try?My first phone was C25 then c35i currently C45 and now I want to Upgrade to C65.I'm In Uganda and I don't have Creadit card can I buy using Telegraphic Transfer?Reply please.

  • The phone needs to be off when you charge it for the battery to last. I haven't been able to do this for long yet due to needing the phone, I can't leave it for 12 hours switched off.

  • an affordable phone with nice design and features. the only disadvantage is its battery won't last long.

  • Can i useCX65 data cable for C65 ??? Ofcourse,downloading the programe of C65..

  • i bought this phone for 125 euro in romania, and i think it's good, the battery is not so good(2 days)but the 65.536 cstn screen and 40 channel polyphonic sound, cif camera(352x288) makes this phone a nice piece to buy!!!

  • what is the latest firmware available? thx

  • any programs and wallpapers for siemens c65

  • i fink dis fone is ok but mine recently broke and it cant find signal anywere and i cant send txts or call anyone.i wouldnt recommend it.

  • I have had this phone for just over a month, and I am not too happy with it. The phone froze several times when I first got it, and has stopped since. It seems to be a common thing for Siemens phones to freeze during the first week of use. I also find that the response time when I click on the menus is quite slow. Also, I find that the phone is not the easiest to customize. My Nokia 6610i was much easier. The battery life is quite short. The Nokia 6610i lastest almost twice as long. And finally, although the resolution of the camera is the same as the Nokia 6610i, I find that the pictures are not of the same quality, and for pictures to come out nicely there must be very high light levels, otherwise they are very dark. Overall this is a nice phone, but is slow and has a short battery life, and the camera is not the greatest.

  • i don't think you can disable the sound...you would have to delete the click sound from the pc with a cable...which means more $$$. mines crashed about 4 times within one week i got it. it usually crashes when using the camera

  • how do i turn off the sound of when i take a picture

  • I have had this phone for a few days now after swapping from the NEC e101. I am a big fan of Siemens phones for their ease of use. The NEC was a nightmare! The only problem I have is it keeps crashing on me. My old Siemens used to do this, but only about once a month. It's happened on this phone 3 times now. Has anyone else had a similar problem? Other than that I can't find fault with the phone.

  • I think it's a very nice phone for its price.Fantastic design and great features,I have the intention to buy it very soon.

  • this phone is off da hook

  • Dear ANTIP, No. From Nathan

  • HEY MANZ ! i have 1 question for YA ;] can C65 take photos in 640x480 resolution,after the upgrade ?????

  • HI! I need a help to change the phone code because I don't remember what I enterd first. So if any one can help me I'll be thankfull. thanks

  • this phone is fantastic for its price. u wouldn't find such features on a NOKIA at the same price. maybe double price. I've used this phone for a month and all I had to not-like about it was the quality of the camera(I remember that it's a low price phone). The rest was perfect, almost. The 10MB, the polyphony (although a bit weird). It's the best phone for its price I gave it to my gf because I bought myself a sony-ericsson k500i

  • Do keep in mind when rating the phone, that this ISN'T MEANT to be a top-notch phone you are expecting. There's a reason to its low price, and that is; average features. The phone is seriously more than what one should expect for what you pay, so do not complain. If you really want your perfect phone with everything in it, then you should jolly well be willing to shell out about $500-700. However, I am sure that is not the case for most people rating the phone. So, I call upon you to stop ranting about the minor flaws and inflating it to deter others from buying it. When rating a phone, you should not be ridiculous and compare it with other phones not of its calibre, but of other phones in its range... The bottom line is that the Siemens C65 is a GOOD ENTRY-LEVEL phone. It has MORE than what it should have for what you pay. Flaws can be corrected with firmware update, Ive used this phone before for a period of time, and it does have its flaws. I had them corrected and they work *almost* perfect now. I talked on this mobile alot, and I have never been disconnected. Please double-check with your service provider... The phone easily eclipses 3 1/2 days on standby and some minor uses with me. I have no complains, but am instead full of compliment to Siemens for sparing a thought for the lower-class market or/and teenagers who may not be able to produce huge amounts of cash for a phone... I take my hat off to Siemens, for not trying to rip us off our money the way Nokia usually does...

  • im deciding to get this or the t616 for my friend .please let me know which one is better. camera quality, looks, menu system, speed, etc.. thanks! greatly appreciated

  • Very Very Bad set Never try to buy this set because of its poor camera performance and dull display colors. and weak battery. :)

  • Read my reviews on page 2.... after several months use, this phone is utter crap!!! I was talkin to my friend in the mall and the bloody phone disconnected me! This happened a few times during that day. First, my friend will phone me, same thing, I phone them back, same thing!!! Could be the service or the phone?!?! BE AWARE!! IT's A CRAPOLA PHONE!! *games provided for this phone really sucks assmar too*

  • i bought this phone .it is very very interesting.the menium is very very fine. it has polifonice sounds.

  • kemo. press the camera button till u can shoot photos. on the right u have the softkey indicating options. press it and change the resolution in the "SETTINGS" title: u have 3 options: Medium, Wallpaper and Premium. Wallpaper is best for wallpapers and in full screen mode they cover the whole screen. in premium size they are 352x288 (with no zoom) and in full screen mode it's about 80% of the screen. Medium size does not matter - ugly :)

  • can anyone help me? i have siemens cv65 which is the same as c65 and my camera is set to 116x96 resolution how can i take it to 320x120

  • when the battery should be changed?after 6 month?? Is it cheapper than nokia 3310 battery?

  • Have a look at this one: ­ you can find it in the English section of Siemens site, but surprisingly not in the international one. However, there it is. Cya! :-)

  • I bought my 065 in China and need a manual in English. I found every other language, but English. Does anyone have any leads to how I get one here in China?

  • Good news! I was able to enjoy MMS/GPRS now thru smart and internet browsing is quite quick and easy too. Much faster than my dial up ISP actually. I can change my ringtones anytime and assign per group caller. Now im proud to say..NO REGRETS!

  • help - my son only got his phone for his 16th bday in sept, when he sends messages it takes the cash, but, the messages arent received..... also, it goes funny when he turns it on/off... can anyone help - i bought it from a catalogue - how do i get a refund and any credit on the phone back? thank you... please email me

  • this phone is on sale for 5thousand pesos on the market that is equivalent to 100 dollars....... its great!

  • Can anybody help me.When it freezes what do I have to do.I cannot take out the battery and put it again.

  • www.siemens-c65.tk

  • Let me sum it up for all those who are interested in buying this piece of junk. Pls explore your options. Siemens has a bad rep to begin with and the C65 is one of the better of the batch. Overall the phone still has faults. I work for a cell company and they tell us to sell these phones without notifying the consumer about the defects. Take my word for it, go with NOKIA or MOTOROLA if you want quality.

  • oh yea, u wanna play games and download games ects; it's quite slow a slug could pass the lenght of the phone. The games that are provided on the phone is pretty pathetic. Again, slow performance, so not worth the $$. I just deleted all mine.

  • Got the phone 2 weeks ago from Fido(BC). New version 12v. So far, not 2 many problems; just that when I have taken and deleted several pics at 1 time, the phone freezes. So, have to take battery out 2 reset. Wut's up with the MMS? Type 2 letters and I'm over the limit!?! Can't connect to net even if I cheked the GPRS box. Hard time usin handsfree if it's around fairly noisy surrondings, pretty good if there's silence as it's quite loud & clear. Pics are decent but slight blurriness. Can't expect much since it's a cam phone. Display is alrite only when it's fairly dark out/shady area. Under bright sun, it's not possible to see anything. I think they should have an illumination switch to turn on/off if one uses the phone constantly. I swear that eats up batteries so fast, it's not funny! *if U have illumation & contrast @ low settings, it should save the batteries some what* Phone is nice and sturdy, not 2 small that I might lose it or something. Buttons are perfect. Don't have to squint to find the numbers. Call/On buttons could be a bit bigger. Placement of numbers ects, is good so is joystick handling. Reception is pretty clear depending on your surrondings. Like on a bus, sometimes not possible to hear your caller. Sometimes callers says I break up so either my fingers are in the way of the antennae or something. For the price I got it, signin on 2yr ~$85 CAD is pretty good deal.

  • for those who would like to see how the pics would come out, check out this link :

  • i used this phone for 2 days and realise that everything is good, camera with 3X zoom, good pics taken with same as 6230. But sometimes will keep waiting, will just press No to resume. Is a small bug. Change ringtones is easy. comes with normal call, group call, and SIM card. Therefore would say def worth the price with such a power phone. good buy

  • the deisplay is not better than 6230 because is not tft!!

  • Im getting this phone and i wondered has it got more than 10 ringtones and a video capture on it and is it better than a 3510i

  • Anyone how to solve this problems?

  • I have a few problems with siemens c65 1)Don't know how and where to change the ringtone to the ringtone that i want. 2)When i want to save my friend's phone number,cannot save,it says PIN2 block. find that it is nt so user-friendly

  • Please help.... Can anyone unlock this device C65, IMIE# 35-3661-00-114608-5 Thanks Mike [email protected] or PM 905-616-6245:befuddled :confused: :doh:

  • When i bought this mobile it goes to hang and crash several times but after i upgrade the software (v12) it never happens again I think this mobile phone is best in its price.somthing like ability to add more word to T9 dictionary and high capacity for thing make this phone best but can we attach memory card to it to improve the capacity ? pllz

  • Something similar happened to my boyfriend with the siemens C65 model. He got another phone in exchange for that one and said it would always freeze. Not to mention the sound problems it has on the shut off melody tune.

  • I have a Siemens C65 which I bought about 20 days ago. It started malfunctioning about 2 weeks after I bought it. The phone would freeze while in operation and I would have to wait until the battery died (a few hrs later) before It would snap out of the frozen state and restart again. I tried to return it to the FIDO locations in BC and they put me on a 2 week waiting period. I got the run around from FIDO's cust service and Kiosk's until I finally went in to the fourth FIDO location and they had just ONE phone left. MY LUCKY DAY!! They exchanged the phone for me for another refurbished one. I was pissed because the entire phone series was on recall for malfunctioning to begin with. Could anybody here help me and tell me why should the consumer suffer if the phone is faulty to begin with???

  • how many messages does it store - i need to know asap coz i'm considering buying it!!! Thanx alot xxx

  • i couldnt changed the ringtones???? hello anybody there??????????

  • hi i just have one problem with this phone and that is i couldnt find how to change the rington , plz someone help me (even u my ?!!) thanke u for your help.(but i should say i have done something in setup/ringtones/calls... and it wasnt effect)

  • Hiya, I'm looking to buy a new mobile and was wondering, how many messages does the Siemens C65 store?

  • Crap phone. Complete with buggy software.

  • i luv the fone, its gr8. one problem, i cnt find settings for mms newhere, sum1 help. mail me the settings pllllzzzzzz.

  • I have C65 by Siemens bought in UK from Phones4U on o2 network (locked). Good points. 1) Display 130x130 65k and is brighter and clearer and stronger colours than Nokia 6230. 2) Ringtones Loud and Clear 3) Compact, Modern and Stylish Design 4) Covers exchange so you can change the look and if damaged can be replaced. 5) Memory is big for its price and class 6) Infrared Works well with most phones I have tried unlike some older models of phone with others. 7) CIF Camera is quite good considering the price. Check out MC60 now that is rubbish. 8) MMS is very easy to use 9) T9 Dictionary - This is important you can add to the dictionary and the phone also word wraps. Many phones Like Sendo do not do either. 1) Battery - Currently the battery is poor (at least on mine) lasting 1 day maximum 2 days. This is not acceptable. Alternative batteries are now available but higher capacity ones should have been supplied by Siemens. Overall I would say this phone is excellent value for money just marred by some minor bug fixes which are being slowly sorted by siemens and a poor battery. I give it 9 out of 10 stars

  • I have purchased the serial data cable for the c65 mobile phone and have Mobile Phone Manager downloaded from the siemens website but it will not connect with the phone. i have tried to do an update aswell but this will not connect either. are there any settings that i have to change on my phone or on my computer. i am running windows XP home edition with SP2 and using the serial Cable on COM1. can someone email with help??

  • nice

  • sonny, you're right, but siemens proposes to download a firmware on his web site to solve the problem... the link :

  • I'm from canada and i work for fido recently this model has been recalled because when battery is low it emits a strong beeping sound. JUST IMAGINE IF YOU WERE TALKING AND YOUR BATTERY WENT LOW.......

  • The camera is bill! why the heck do people want great pictures with it?? Its not as if ur going to use it to take high quality landscape photos. I think this is alot better that other camera phones than ive seen which is double the price (but im just saying dat coz i WON IT!)

  • Very good pchone

  • i am very convinced about this mobile, but in the o2 book it says it has a video capture with playback and here it doesnt?

  • hey! the menu-icons of this phone r different from mine! :S and by the way it has a Software malfunction ..(all the 65 siemens cellphones)

  • plssss, how is this phone in peso? especufically in the philippines?

  • yea mine didnt come with an instruction manual n i havnt a clue what to do so if any of ya could tell me what the little button under the joystick is 4 then can ya email me: [email protected] thanx n also how to get the games n tone where they at??!?! but its a beast phone! mint! ta x x x

  • Have it for a couple of weeks on O2 prepaid. Cost 129Euro with 80Euro upgrade credit. I suppose you pay for what you get but I hate it. Slow, menus messy to use. Gone back to my Nokia and selling the c65

  • i think well product for young people like me, how price in rupiah?

  • please tell me someone - in this phone is 10mb or 3 mb?

  • They r very light n stylish but its hard to get ringtones for

  • i would like to know how much it is and how to buy it

  • Awesome Mobile..it'll do good business as compared to other mobiles..

  • If you really have this phone, get rid of it by giving it to me... This phone is great! Great design, great features, and great performance. Probably the best phone in its class right now!

  • This is the worst phone I've ever had. I'll be getting rid of it asap.

  • It's a better than average phone, good features, low price i.e Rs.10,800 in Pakistan which is about US $186, but if anyone can throw off some more bucks then CX65 is a better choice. CX65 is for Pakistani Rs.14,500 i.e US $250, it has a video camera, an infrared port and an extra 1 MB memory. So fetch one of these for yourself now!!!!!!!!!!!

  • the phone is �99.99p at argos if any one is interested(the lowest iv`e seen it). iv`e got one and up to now it`s been spot on.

  • So... I got Motorola C650 and my bro said that C65 is better! Do you think so?

  • might buy one today at 2:00 can ya download games yes or no

  • BTW... I really need to know the size of the screen in mm. And also the screen's quality comparison with Alcatel OT735, Nokia 3200, Motorola C650, etc. Please tell me...

  • This is great... I wanna buy it!

  • Where i can to buy this cellpnone non contract, in Washigtton D.C.? I need to know it in this week.

  • This is a budget phone with good feature. I bought 1 last week and so far so good!

  • very good phone and good price.

  • Will be available as a prepaid-phone for Vodafone and A1 for EUR 129,-

  • i think its a good phone but i dont know the price of it!

  • This phone is much more better than my old MC60. The screen is better and the design is better. The speaker is louder and the look is nicer. =P

  • this mobile is �109.99 at littlewoods online!!!! is the camera rubbish or good?

  • I think this phone is great

  • lucks nice, sounds nice and works nice...

  • I think very good for mobile person. It is more interesting if it given to me as a prize (free of charge). Ha ha ha, maybe.....

  • it is very good!

  • Price around EUR 200,-(unlocked)

  • Is C65's camera performance same with MC60? MC60 has cıf 352*288 camera.so ıts too bad!

  • 209� in portugal (unlocked & simfree) the vodafone version costs 179.9� (prepaid)

  • i love it so much

  • cif is the resolution, it's about half of the VGA resolution, wich means it has 320x120 pixels if I'm not mistaken, and the C65 does NOT have video

  • Can anyone tell me what CIF-cam means? Does it film?

  • i think it is very good through the introduction though i have not buy one

  • what is the price ?

  • This phone has a reasonable price, above average features and design. I played with the beta version a few days ago and I should say the unit is great! For users who would like to get a camera phone at low cost, go and grab one!! Highly recommended.

  • Sir wahat is de price of this phone

  • The C65's specs have been updated. It now has: -10MB memory -SMS/EMS zoom -Themes support(not just colour schemes) -Camera digital zoom

  • That,s so fantastic that,s my first chioce to buy i tell my sister to buy this model too

  • what means cif-cam is it better than vga/qvga or not???

  • siemens mobile phones are good and strong for its batteries,but i think it still different with nokia which is equipped with radio fm, so why siemens do not do the same as nokia phones?.

  • I can not get anywhere a version of java-midlet ChessBuddy (product of Coffebreakmedia, Niek van Nielsen) wihich one perfectly fit to my Siemens C55 screen. I have the version 1.0 and 1.2 but they work with SL45. Could you give me some advices? (Here, in Hungary, in the heart of Europe I can not order it on net, there is no commercial place for it.)

  • Whats the diffrent with CX65?? Anyone know what price is it in Malaysia??

  • Unlocked price around EUR 200

  • i think i`ll buy one. looks nice!

  • it have an good Features for low cost phone

  • Is There Bluetooth Connection ? When this product coming to Indonesia ? Would you like to send me the picture & specification of M65, C65 & CX 65 ?

  • CIF Is enought, 65k colors is surprisingly.

  • wat a beast of a fone!how much in english muny is it?can any1 tel me wat ems means plz?!

  • USB: great 65K: excellent CSTN: not so high-quality like TFT-screen 3 MB memory: ok CIF: bad It's cheap thats great but CIF-cam.... I think i'll buy CX65!

  • 410 hours standy by for a low-cost phone? M65, S65 and CX65 have only 250 - 300 h standby and cost much more.....

  • @ unknown: EUR 125 for this phone? Is this the unlocked-price?

  • ctsn screen? uh... is it good?

  • it's not a cif camera, its a qvga camera, that means it's slightly worse than a cif camera...(320x240 I believe) for an aprox.125 � phone I think it's very good

  • Good

  • yeah, it's CIF...what do you expect, it's an entry-level phone. do you think its price would still be affordable if it had a better cam?....common sense my friend.:)

  • only CIF-cam! poor...

  • Wow!

  • C class phone with an integrated camera. It seems like a very nice phone! Good design!
