Pros of the SL75: strong build(slider is effective and not loose like other phones), sleek design(trust me, this thing turns heads), video player is good(even though the memory is very small you can still get a lot of videos b/c of the 3gp format of files), mp3 player is pretty good, clear reception and volume during calls, texting is easy.

Cons: Battery life is so-so(just charge every night), turns itself off sometimes, possibility of dropping the call if you accidentally move the slider down.

Basically for me, this phone is very good because I have a separate mp3 player and I hardly use the camera(even though it's useful sometimes). The shutting off and battery life doesn't bother me because it doesn't affect my calls. But I wouldn't recommend this to people who use their phone for everything like listening to music, watching videos, taking pictures and making calls.

I'm getting really mixed messages about this phone, both me and my sister are thinking of buying it, and at first sight it looked a bargain, and some comments seem to agree with this, others are saying it's a waste of money. I'm basically looking for a phone becuase my other one is receiving texts like three days late, and I would like bluetooth, so should I buy it?

Love the phone, but can't end a call by closing the slider - comes up unsuccessful, but slider is working. Anyone else had this and do you know if it a setting I need to change - help please - apart from this quite happy.

Just bought this 'cos it seemed a bargain but the instruction book is useless - it says do so-and-so, but doesn't tell you how to do it!Also, it has switched itself off a couple of times and it is very difficult to operate - I can usually pick things up easily from the instruction book, but not this time. My battery life doesn't seem over-long either - it went right down in just a day.Also, I can't hear it ring - even the loudest setting's not loud enough when it's in your handbag, and it doesn't ring for very long either. All in all, not such a bargain after all. It looks so nice too.

if any one is thinking about buying one of these i would think again. BenQ took over Siemens when they went bust and now Benq are doing the same thats y this phone is quite cheap because its there last stock. So if you buy one give it 2months and your warranty may no longer be valid.

I am very disapointed with this phone only purchased yesterday and partner purchased a Sony Ericsson wish I had too as mine seems a cheap alternative which I cant see lasting. Shame it looked good but thats the only thing I can find that is good. Take my advice dont buy one.
