I've had the CF62T for 10 months now & love it! I've never had screen freezing or dropped phone calls like others here complain about. I love the classy unusual looks and especially love the different dynamic light patterns! They always get attention from others when I open the clamshell! I use the phone for only about 3 minutes a day in calls average & download internet news 10 - 20 minutes a day. Keeping the phone on 12-15 hours a day the battery last me 3 or 4 days before I need to recharge it.
It doesn't have a camera, if that is important to you although one is optional. The color display could be bigger & the volume on the speaker phone could be louder, but the phone is packed with useful features and gets the intended job done! The pluses outway the minues in my opinion.

To Dominic:
My dad's phone had that battery issue, it would last for only a few hours of normal use, turn off while charging, become hot while being used.. i considered buying a new battery then i read your post, i wasn't sure but i gave it a try and to my surprise, it worked. there was a contact between the battery and metal parts beside the sim, the phone now is normal again.
Thanks for help, now i have a reason to root for Croatia in The World Cup..

Hello:
I am using this phone for 7 months now(black edition) and it is great-design and funcionality as well great quality of sound...I have USEFULL ADVICE for all users of cf62 who have problems with battery life/turning off..I had the same problem and it can be solved by simply putting a bit of paper or carton betwen baterry and sim card(mobile was turnig off by it self because of
lose sim card that was losing contact)..once you do that your phone will work perfectly and without any problem what so ever..it is great phone, durable and reliable...also it has grat design for cheap price...

After my ME45 was stolen I wanted something cheap. Phones are consumer products, not jewellery.
Last friday my Siemens died. I had it for about a year. The last few weeks my CF62 started to freak. Shut down with no reason, freezes, ... In an angry mood I smacked in on the table and the screen broke.
All in all my cheapest Siemens and a bit of a dissapointement. Software is very slow, and build quality can't touch the older and more expensive Siemens. Paint chips way too easily. But I still like the design, I love the flat-style keyboard. Types very easy!
My CF62 is now replaced with the ME75

I bought my CF62 for less than 20 quid, and I use it with pay as you go "orange".
I consider myself a casual user who didn't want to spend a lot on mobile technology, and the CF62 is eminently suitable for this. I have just bought a 850mAh replacement battery off EBay for less than 4 quid (including P&P)not that I needed to, but because of all the negative hype about this phone.
If your life or your business depends on having a state of the art mobile, then pay what you consider appropriate.
I consider the CF62 to be amazing value for money.
To all the people who think that 3 minutes is too long to run a java game, may I make a suggestion ---- GET A F***ING LIFE.

PS I don't work for siemens

Thought it was decent enough for its time, however changed my mind after just 6 months the peice of crap doesnt charge anymore, battery sits on minimal constantly, WITH everything disabled. Just dont bother, there are better deals out there for less money.

Purchased this phone from T-mobile. Just like many other people here say, the phone just shuts off by it's self. Unfortunatly it started doing this right when the warranty expired. Has to pay $100 and commit to 1 yr service for Motorola V360.

The only thing i like in this phone is the design, nothing else than this.The batteries are lasting only one day without talking, it turns off by its own, and it is very very slow when opening applications.I have it for 4 months and im already lookig for a new phone.Siemens never more.

I just bought one from orange.co.uk before I read any reviews. I wondered why it was so cheap @ Ģ19.99 ! O well if it's no good it will end up on ebay.

In just 5 months my Cf62 Black acquired a lot of problems. Freezes, turn off by itself, and the silver paint started to peel. Buy another cell

You seimens CF62 is not good at all the battery is not good, it switch off anytime it likes and it freezes anytime you haveto do something about it beause is give us and then cousing financial lost to our pocket, we can purchase a phone and then three months time it damage and buy new one. we can do that.
