Toshiba TS605 - User Reviews

  • Looks like a crossover between Samsung and Sony Ericsson

  • Nice

  • I have one of these phones, very user friendly and the battery as good performance. Not big on standby time but good on real life usage. Unfortunately it was a disaster. Worst buy ever for me and why? Simply because it can't cope with the humidity of the Azores Islands. After only 3 months of usage the keyboard was completely mess up, due to moist.

  • The main problem with this phone is the very low volume from the speaker. And this is a VERY BIG problem. It is a mobile phone after all and not hearing the phone because you are in the next room it is really bad. There is also NO led or something to indicate that you lost a call. I have gone back to my old Siemens CF62. You can't miss a call with that one. Very loud speaker and so many leds that looks like a Christmas tree if you miss a call. Thank God there is Opera mini and Toshiba is going to be used as a cheap mobile internet solution.

  • its showing sogood& nice,what iexplane about this,really good,

  • I hve used Toshiba phones, once had Ts605, now with Ts608, they are good, nice designs, but the battery is disaster.

  • Hi there, can somebody tell me about Toshiba ts605 :It works in US

  • I'm not so satisfied from this phone, because his software its too bad, he is restarting often, if you drop him, he's turning off at the same moment, it's slow, like turtle and the battery is disaster. But i can't say nothing about design.

  • Good: *It got bluetooth 1.2 and J2ME MIDP 2.0 *Can take video(3gp format) and photos(jpeg) MIDPSysInfo Java program works! You can check info for your mobile! Not good: Bluetooth and Java: *No bluetooth API for Java applications: bluechat and valhallachat programs do not work! If you want to chat you must stick to regular bluejacking!(device name change, or sending address book contact with intended message)

  • toshiba phone is absolutely perpect 4 me. so far an a+ rating. now i have 2 toshiba phones ( ts605 & my latest ts30) frm h.k. i love this toshiba phone its users friendly.

  • Once i start to charge him switched off and he stay alive three times longer!

  • i have this ts605 from my wife n h.k . i thought it's ok but the mp3 that i download to micro sd can't read

  • I have the same phone and I love it except the charge doesnt take long. the battery dies so fast. Do you have a problem like this???

  • i cant put song ot picure bigger than 350 kb in the memory card whyyy???

  • For the 350 kb mp3 you can put memory card microSD with 1 GB and you will transfer mp3 bigger than 350 kb.That's all.

  • I interested in buying this phone because i wish a cheap phone which has basic features and FM radio. now when people say its slow can you please explain what features are slow? thanks

  • i have this phone for one mounth and it shutting down by self

  • Toshiba have a GREAT PROBLEM with MP3 format, if song or file is bigest 350 k NOT Suported.WHY

  • I will change my TS605 as soon as possible... this phone is garbage... work too slow, bluetooth is older, you don`t even know when rings... Toshiba must let Nokia, Samsung or LG to make phones... I regret my money for this phone.

  • This mobile is so GREAT. Cool in 1 product, top top

  • you need to set the default storage to memory card so you can transfer bigger files

  • I've just bought Toshiba TS605 and it's OK but bluetooth can transfer only 350-400kb, is it right or only on my phone?

  • feature-wise, this fone is drab. but its design . . . wow. amongst the most sleek bar style fones around.

  • Video Record don't work with 1GB micoSD memory card.

  • Is there anyway.. some one can suggest TOSHIBA to increase the Talk Time ( battery life). With a fierce competition from other mobile manufacturers, the talk time is very less. I would be happy to buy this, if its released to Indian Market. TOSHIBA... are you hearing???
