You can now get this phone for free! WOW. I got my phone only 2 days ago and I will not be sending it back, that’s for sure.
The Siemens S35i is available on all the networks (contract) and you can also get it on pre-pay with Virgin (£190). The new Siemens phones are much improved. The interface looks far better than any Nokia but is harder to get use too.
The phone is a perfect size and is very light; the screen is huge which makes it a great WAP phone. Voice dialling, T9 text input, WAP, 4 great games and a ringtone composer are just some of the features.
The phone has lots of useful things like a quick key, you can make this link to ’writing a new text message’ for example. There is also a VIP facility so you can assign different ringtones to different numbers (43 ringtones+composer). There are little graphics that look nice and are used when sending messages etc.
The battery life is just amazing though. It is meant to last 9 days on standby. Talk time is 60-360 minutes, which is more important though. The sound quality is good and for a phone this does the job very well.
The WAP is also easy to use and I have spent £5 on it in 2 days already. Any extra accounts are easy to set up and once you get use to it, the navigation system is fine.
You can send pictures and business cards over SMS, although I haven’t used this yet I’m sure it is useful. The phone lets you record 20 seconds of conversation, which is useful when you want to prove a point.
Anyway, this is a highly desirable phone and you can get it free! Just wait for my next opinion and I will tell you how.
