Gripes, Uses USB headphones which are not readily available. Occasionally the phone has turned off on its own for no apparent reason. My first experience with cell phone cameras, so I have nothing to compare it to, but the capture time is lengthy, so often while you are waiting for the capture to happen, you end up moving the phone and capturing a blurred image. Images cannot be zoomed on the phone. PC Software does not permit accessing all the fields actually available on the phone, example - address - is on the phone, but this field is not available in the software. Music volume is very low. You cant really hear it at all in an airplane due to background noise.
Positives:
One touch dialing, not all phones have it. Hands free mode works well. Great battery life. Micro SD memory can be designated as the default device for pictures, music, etc. 8gb limit is lots. Alarms and dual mode time is a nice feature. Can read basic text files. Small, and I personally like a candy bar shape - no flip phones please, but thats a personal choice. USB charging, FM radio (need the USB headphone which acts as an antenna) is nice to have. Alarms are loud and very customizable.
Dont read too much into the gripes, it is still a great phone with great battery life. The unknown shutdowns concerned me for a while, but they have not happened often and I am hoping there will be a firmware update for this problem eventually. This is a great basic phone. If you want a touch screen with larger viewing area, this is not the one you want, but if you want a basic very functional phone, consider it.

i love the specs of this cell except lack of 3g (which is very important for me). Wake up, philips! it's 2009 and not 1999. Almost every manufacturer has a 3g cell on their line up.

Philips-India website has got both the Philips X620 and X710. That makes me happy indeed. Will contact them soon. Hopefully they take their web presence with more importance than Samsung-India does.
Led-free soldering, firewall, huge battery-life, black body color -- I'm already more than happy just by reading the spec-sheet :))

Dear All
i am one of the crazy fan of Philips cell phones since last 5years , because of its Long battery backup.
other fetures are also upto the mark.
So far i feel, Philips should go for huge advertisement
like Nokia, Samsung & Sony Erricson 2 grab the market.

Philips has sold off its mobile phone division to a chinese company (a shenzhen based company) Frankly philips is not into strong marketing as nokia or sony or samsung. they make a good product and they let their product talk for themself.
Yes the selling point of xenium is indeed long battery life and it does work nearly to what it claims. the battery life suffers when roaming else its perfect. I did use 9@9++ and could go on a week of travelling without charger. And when I would be back, the battery would still be there.
I think people who have purchased this phone better comment so that people can get a clear opinion rather than speculating and confusing others who want to buy it.
Thank you
