Best basic phone ever made. Had it over 2 years and counting, never ever crashed or faltered once. Dropped it a million times and the charge lasts for days and days. They don't make them like this anymore! I'll be using this until it finally wears out, I'll bet that's a few years away yet.

Yes This is indeed a very nice phone. I must have dropped it countless no of times in the past 3 years I am using this. Yet its still so new & there was never any damage. I really love my phone.

I have just flicked through the comments and I cannot believe some clever person has said that this phone "looks unreliable".

I have had my A65 for 3 or 4 years and abused it terribly - it lives in my pocket with the car and house keys. I have dropped it for a passtime - I even threw it to a passing yacht in a race. The other sailor missed it and it 'exploded' into about 4 pieces on deck. He put it together and asked me where he could get a phone like this.

I have just replaced it as it is now so scratched-up (keys) but I am really attached to this phone. Plain (although handsome), low-tech (if any mobile could be), no camers - sure, but PLEASE not unreliable.

I contemplated buying a new one to replace old one, but I need a change. I will probably regret it.

Siemens may already be obsolete, but i've had this phone for 3 years now and i've probably dropped it hundred times. yet, i still got no problem with it! a very basic phone and once you've got the hang of the texting features, it's a really comfortable phone to type messages in. Wish other more popular brands of today follow suit and produce durable phones like this.

Much better then Sony, hope they coninue to make phones like this. Four years ago Siemens was nr1 in the Netherlands in sales.
My sister`s first mobile from Siemens still works and the design is still nice to look at.

I have had this phone for 18 months and its been a reliable phone. Features are non existant with no expandable memory, BUT, it makes and recieves phone calls, is reliable and good on battery. Its been dropped many times and apart from a few scratches still works as good as new. The alarm never fails to wake me either. Ideal if you want a phone to last and to make phone calls

I've had my A65 for a couple of years and it has never let me down. Once when I was cycling it fell out of my pocket onto the street so hard that the battery ended up six feet from the rest of the phone: I clipped it back together and it still works perfectly.

Minuses: the keypad lock operates with a long press on the bottom right key, so it can be released accidentally if kept in a trouser pocket. Also the standard ringtones are a bit naff. But reliability, ease of use, reception, voice clarity and battery life are all excellent. You'll not get a better basic phone.

I've been using this phone two years ago, and just returned to it at the moment coz my fancy touchscreen-mp3-camera-phone doesnt want to work anymore.

A65 is a simple phone, working well for calls and text messaging, but no extra fancy features. The battery life is very good, lasts about 3 days or more without charging. The phone construction is well done too. Highly recommended for the simple tasks of calling and texting.

this mobile is good for the normal use but as today most of people just use for the fun , so for that it doesn't have bluetooth or infra or USB. Its tones are too godd but if one need more tones they cant get it...

i had this phone for about 2 years and it was a great phone. it was very sturdy. i droped this phone so many times and it did not brake. it had really good reception as well. this phone is a great phone if all you are going to use it for is acutally talking on it.
