To Perplexed: maybe you can do a firmware update to fix the problem? At siemens-mobile.com you can download firmware version 8 for the CX65 (not already tried it with mine, still running firmware 2).
To ma'en: the CX65 can set a picture to full screen for background, but the logo's/indicators are overlapping the background of course (but isn't that logic? ;-) ). You can, however, replace the operator-logo to a transparant gif for example...
You can't adjust the contrast (believe me, there is NO need for), but you can adjust the illumination in 10%-steps.

I recently received a CX65 from O2 here in the UK and it seems to have a fatal flaw: if you receive an email on it, the phone crashes (switches off). If you switch it back on the phone will crash again in about 30 seconds. The only way round this is to switch it back on, then get to the inbox quickly and delete the email. If you can do this before the phone crashes again then the phone will behave normally. It's the same no matter how big or small the email or whichever email account I send it from. O2 sent me a new phone yesterday and it's even worse: so far I'm unable to delete the email in time, so now my phone is completely unusable. Anyone else found this?

frankly speaking i got this for SGD$298 so is a budget phone for me.. camera is excellent.. if u want nightmode just like what Matti said "maybe the camera has no nightmodus, but you can attache an external flash if you really want.
After all I payed 249EUR in Belgium; not very much for a phone like this. It's not only the nice screen and the good VGA camera, but there are also lots of nice details (it's nice to design your OWN themes"..

It's absolutely right some people just don't read the specs good enough. And idd, for good pics they invented the digital camera! The picture quality of the CX65 is very good FOR A MOBILE PHONE.
And ok, maybe the camera has no nightmodus, but you can attache an external flash if you really want.

It's not only the nice screen and the good VGA camera, but there are also lots of nice details (it's nice to design your OWN themes (http://www.club-siemens.net/fu...ndex.shtml), easy connection with PC, 2 white leds, handy filetree, ...).
Of course there will be other phones with almost the same capabilities, but not all of theme have a price of only 249EUR...

Franking speaking, this CX65 just don't have the cut. Even thought the screen look big but the pictures only can display in the centre (became small) as top the phone operator logo and below menus...What it most sadden me is that it does not have a night mode function, taking pictures at home or night simply don't work...
Franking speaking, I don't think this is a bubget phone as it bought at S$488 but only able to sell at 338 after 3 days. I think with the price S$488, SE T630 will be a much better choice. Goodbye CX65!!!

Frankly speaking after using for 1 week, i feel this phone is good for budget-tight users.Good camera and video, but video only 11sec, big lcd screen, hard to sms because of low key buttons and function assigned to each key seems different from most phones. The handset also hangs at times, and it is advisable not to change sim card or battery frequently because of the tight and almost hard to remove cover, especially the sim card can't be pulled out sometimes. Camera also has no night mode. Good 40 chords polyphonic tones. Thats all i think about the siemens cx65. i would recommend it to those who are looking for a budget wise phone with basic features.

Camera is useless at night or indoor because no night mode. Video only can record 11 seconds and always hanged. Regret bought this phone and had to sell off quick as no resale values and no demand. No more siemens for me.....

Very nice phone. I bought one for my brother as a gift and he loves it so much. He said it is better than his Nokia. I think I better get 1 for myself. =)

first please excuse my english (because i'm french)
i bought this phone 3 days ago and i am totally satisfied with it :
- very very nice screen, luminous and contrasted (what is not usual with siemens phones)
- good design, light and quite small
- good camera
- very complete (a lot of options including the photocall, voice recording, the possibility of modifying its photographs, and contrary to what some people ( who certainly have not tested it) say, the keypad is not so small compared to other ones, and it is less slow that some other siemens.
-a lot of memory (11M) what is enough to save some 170 photographs with a resolution of 640*480
-the battery is good
however, the rings are ugly and at the beginning, it is quite diffult to cope whit to menu and the many ways to do the same thing but finally, one realizes that it is arranged well ...
-the materials used are good, except maybe that of the lid of the battery but it is very correct
but : it does not read the mp3 and does not have a tuner.
-a bit expensive
--> I RECOMMEND IT HIGHLY

It's the K700 that's shit. SonyEricsson is a hugely overrated brand; I'm hoping it will collapse soon.
