Hi all, i just want to ask.... I have been dreaming of having outdoor phone such as M75, but i read that many of you have complained about the rubber of M75 which is peeling so soon. Is it the rubber on the side of phone? or the one inside the back cover?
Thanks...

To ide4...

Thanks...
in that case, I'll still stick to my one year faithful M65 for the moment (though it couldn't play mp3 ringtone)... The rubber on my M65 still intact and well...
Sigh... If the rubber in M75 is peeling, its' really a shame. Oversight from Siemens. How could they make new phone worst than phone before?

TO : casio

I'm from Indonesia, I think phones from both countries came from same factory. It says "Made in Germany" on the box's IMEI sticker. And I trust it coz I bought it at Siemens distributor at Indonesia, not from black market. Don't know if the phone already made by Ben-Q in Taiwan...

Just check everything before you buy it. Don't get same problem like me in my last post. Especially the rubber thing, coz I'm trying keep it stick with the phone body using glue at the moment.

Goodluck :)

I have the phone for about 6 months. I also have same problem here, rubber beginning to melt and also loose the joystick cap.
I brought my phone to Siemens, they said that I have to change the whole body/case. When I asked the price.. total about half of the phone price, Wow.. So if you bought this phone, (not count on the body/case price, only the phone function) actualy it's cheap, only half price. Considering what they sell here is the tough body/case of the phone.

I also have problem with the RS-MMC. I put 512Mb RS-MMC, first it was working fine. I think this phone could perform hot swap function (you can eject the MMC without turn off the phone, there is an "Eject card" menu at the option menu, I often use it to transfer MP3 using card reader, more faster than infrared or bluetooth), but after some times I did the hot swap function, suddenly it won't read my MMC. I tried to read my MMC at my card reader, it was fine. I also tried to read it using NOK** phones, worked fine. I've to sell my MMC to NOK** user. But I never giveup. I bought more expensive MMC (Kingstone), worked fine, never use the hot swap function, I turn off the phone to eject the card.

But another problem came. When I played an MP3 file, suddenly it shuted off. I turned back on the phone, tried to play same file worked fine. Other day, when I played another MP3 file, it shutted of again, turn ed back on, played the same file worked fine ??

TO badamadafaka :
Using standard Music player, you cannot access another menu while playing MP3. When you play MP3, then a call came in, after you answer or reject it, the MP3 is not paused, but stopped. If you played a play list, and that thing happen, then you have to begin from the beginning of the play list, and accessed next song with your joystick until last song you heard, and start from the beginning of the song.

The Video is OK, only you have to save it to phone's memory first then move to MMC, maybe the MMC access speed not enough for video recording. So the legth of recording depends on the available phone memory.
The camera OK, you have to use a flash if you want to capture in low light condition(that's OK, want a perfect one? got get a digital camera..).
MP3 OK, good sound, using handsfree and standard player software, but remember, no equaliser (want a perfect one? get the SON*ER*****N WALK*** edition, good one..).

Software?? You know.. like everyone said, maybe better after you upgrade the firware (I haven't), and not to put much file in 14Mb phone's memory, and it deppends on your patience :)

Battery ?? In my usage, I have to charge it every morning, but it quite fast. I always charge it when I take a bath.

Style ?? I don't care...
Radio?? I listen radio in my car, and my HI-FI in my home and office, If there was no radio, I listen to MP3 (that's why I use 512Mb MMC).

Sorry for my bad english granmar..

The internal speakers are lame as well.
The sound is muffled. so the MP3 ring tones are not that great for it..

I was excited when I got the phone..It looks really cool..
Now however I am frustrated with what a lousy product it is.
1) The Rubber is wearing away very quickly, and I only ever put it in the casing on my belt!!
2) The MP3 playing rubbish. It is a 50/50 chance that it will play the songs on the RS-MMC.
3) After setting the ring tones on either the RS-MMC or on board the phone, it still reverts to the original ringtone!!!Ahhhh!!!
4)It keeps Not reading any RS-MMC!! I sent it for repair and still!! ahahh it is driving me nuts!
5) The battery life is horrible.. with normal usage, it lasts me 2 days max..

I have the phone from about 6 months and mine also started to fall apart, mine rubber and joystick cap had fallen out, mine battery is draining way too quickly and the software is pretty unstable but it also has a very beautiful design, a good camera and an extremely powerful speaker so I am partially satisfied with it.

Just bought this phone. Almost lost the nipple/connector cover. I was wondering, if without the connecter cover, is it still water/dust resistant with the MMC slot and connectors exposed??? The old Nokia 6250, even though came without any form of connector covers works fine.
