i will advise you not to buy this phone. it has many bad points and almost not a good one.
--half a good point;the quality of sound is prety good but the volume is low
--bad points; -the screen is small and with a prety bad resolution
-the camera suks
-th joystik stuks all th time
-the battery life is about 2 days
-if you drop it it schratches very bad

the only thing that convinced me to buy it was his design: FABULOUS

Even i had a problem with the joystick before. Then i got da joystick serviced. A little lubrication should do the trick. I have never had any problem with the joystick there on.
Try it.

I bought this phone about a year ago. It was manageable, although now its scratched as hell, it taps against sumthin and the flimsy thin back panel comes off as the side panel is snapped. got round the problem of pressin buttons too many times= in contacts press the number of the begginin of the persons name and it comes up with it after about 2 seconds. I could trade this in at the link n get a nokia 1660 or sumthin which has no camera but still has colour, java, etc. I would get 1p for doin that, but can i really be ****ed?

would not recommend if ur lookin for a cool phone
would recommend if its just a basic phone u want with wap.

.....Wait, no changed my mind. It sucks

I bought this phone in september 2005 hopping that it will be as good as the design unfortunately this is not the case. joy stick failure needs modification. is this phone having a usb cable? if there is then may i get the information throug my email. memory capacity too low. u can change design to a five button to replace the joy stick

I got this phone last year (2005) for my 13th Birthday and i loved it at the time.. But now it is SO embarrassing and it looks like a brick and is as heavy as one.. At the moment it won't even turn on for me.. The camera is a very bad quality, The games are no good.. All i can say is i'm overjoyed i'm getting a new phone in September. I would recommend this phone to older people if they are in URGENT need of it. It isn't even blue and all fancy like in the pic.. Mines is grey and black (Very ugly). If you need any help or want to know more.. Email me or add me on msn. Byeee x

I have had this phone for just over a year and it's the worst phone i've ever had the misfortune to use. Camera quality is awful,memory gets full too quickly and the buttons stick. The only good thing is the sound quality for ringtones etc. The design of the phone is very good, however, drop it a few times and it will get broken. This phone is great for absolute beginners but for anybody looking for the same or near quality as nokia,sony ericsson or samsung ranges you will be very dissappointed.

During some time I was a great fan of this phone but now I discovered that Sharp GX17 is a thousand times better that Philips 355.

I have had a philips 355 for a while now. I get on great with it, especially with the data connect kit! A great phone with good features, yet still reasonably priced. Only cons are parts are hard to get hold of, and fascias are not replaceable!

This has to be the worst phone i've ever had. The build quality was crap, it creak, echos and feels very very plasticy. All in all i was glad to get rid of the damn thing!

i searched for the philips 355 quickstart guide on the internet and i am damn sure if others had done so, they will have bben softer in their criticisms.

i have had this phone for over a year and i think it's really good. It has a cool screen menu, a good camera (i have never had a phone with a camera so i think its good but you may think different) and it is a cool candy shape. If you are looking for a cheap phone for just a year or two i would advise you to buy it!!!

im so pleased, ive finally ditched this phone since it is so s***. please, if you are thinking about getting it, please think again. to get saved photos onto your computer (or anywhere else) you hav to send ech one in a mms, which are costly. there is no usb port, infrarred or bluetooth, which is really bad. he joystick button rarely works, and you have to press it loads, same as other buttons. please dont buy it, dont waste your money.

ok ive had this phone a year im 14 now and it was old and embarassing from the day i bought it. i replaced it from a nokia 6610i and its nowhere near the standards i suggest not to buy this phone. It turns off for no apparent reason!, the buttons stick and u have to press them really hard, the joystick is ver dodgy it doesnt do what you ask at the main menu. I have decided to throw this phone and buy the samsung e720 which is actually a reasonabe price and good qualit phone which i would recommend. in a nutshell: if you desperately need a phone its satisfactory for the money otherwise, bad phone.
