i'm from the Philippines. was given this unit by a relative from the west.

i'm really satisfied by this phone, in fact I couldn't part with it yet, although i'm currently having problems with it. my SMS messages keep on bouncing back and the 'handset' function of voice calls is mute, hence i could only call using the 'loudspeaker' function.

it's almost two years already, i don't wanna retire it just yet. where can i have it fixed? anyone?

thanks,
nick

ok, it has lasted the grand test... if i could post a pic of what my phone looks like now, you people who knock this phone's performance would shudder, i can see it now...

Every time i had a problem i knew what was wrong with it. its just a matter of common sense, this isnt a nokia or motorola, or saummy or ericsson, WHAT DO YOU PEOPLE EXPECT? .... Any how, it is working at maximum capacity, only problem i have now is my call logs freeze up at 55. hours and it doesnt register any missed calls after that, and if the audio for the mp3 player still sucks. but then, its not a top end phone, and it has been thru rain, extreme heat, sweat, i flung it in a wall once because the memory card refused to re format, it came back after that, my mom has sat on this thing and its been fine, i went clubbing and it slipped from its phone case hit the tiled dance floor and bounced about a foot high, reset itself and worked just fine... i don't know how someone broke the hinge... thats alot of crap, i had to bite my antennae to get the damn thing to move, but to breakthe hinge.... what is this guy? hulk on mobiles?

Over all it has lasted a year, bumbs, scratches thru good signal and poor, thru rain and sun, with and without battery life, ---yup always gives that last lil bit for the emergency call---

i consider this a good investment, too bad they didn't make any decent follow ups on it that were worth it, and now i have to *shudder* go to the "slim phones" and get a motorola razr v31... i was gonna get a regular razr, but FIRST GENERATION STUFF ALWAYS SUCKS.... CHECK PLAYSTATIONS....

DON'T LET ANYONE SCARE YOU OUT OF BUYING THIS PHONE, NOT MANY PHONES HAVE WORD AND EXCEL DOCUMENTS... if you know how to use a tool, you will be a master

this phone is very bad, i know 4 persons with this phone and after about six months the earpiece goes bad, i mean you cant hear anything when you are on a call you have to use the speakerphone and after that then the speakerphone goes bad and then the screen. i liked this phone beacuse its a sleek symbian phone but it dont worth it after.

this phone in my opinion is terrible, it is very slow, the browser does not work unless ur with optus and u can't txt either so that's why i am selling it to anyone who wants it on ebay. It's 1 month old and it is a great phone but only to people with optus sim cards and also it comes with usb and a memory card it is a fantastic phone but not the one for me

I have had this phone for nearly a year and like it very much. It is definately not fragile and the flip will not easily break.

i think the maximum memory for x700 depends on firmware (*#0000#). mine haves jan 2005 so i'm using a 512 mb card without any problems (it even doesn't have a lag).

This phone very fragile, the flip easy to break. The flip can last you for 3 months only.

Hey SJ.
Thanx for the reply. I dont have a Card reader but was transfering the Songs using a USB Cable (Panasonic SW) but the files were gettin converted on its own from MP3 to WAV. The Ogg Play option looks good. Will try it and it should hopefully work. If not will come back again :). But Thanx a ton once again.

I read your enquiry about putting mp3's onto the phone.
If your using a miniSD card the best way is to put the songs in through a card reader, you should have a miniSD to SD card adapter. Card readers are very cheap to buy and can be plugged into your computer through USB. I think this is the best approach if you want to put mp3's on your phone and keep them in mp3 format.

OR u can install a program such as ogg play which can be downloaded for free. And convert all your mp3's to ogg format using an audio converter and put it into the phone via usb cable (panasonic software)

Hi, Whenever I download any MP3 to my Phone using the Panasonic X700 PC Software Suit, it automatically converts them to WMA. Can anyone please advise how can I keep them as MP3. It is very annoying as none of my MP3 Players recognise the files and I have to end up using real where I cant have a playlist.

I have had two of these phones, as the first one died within three months. Just refused to turn on one day.

This phone looks good and has great features, that's all the good I can say about it. However, it's disappointing in a number of ways:
* it eats batteries alive, 2 days max with light use on one charge
* it crashes often, losing the network until it's restarted
* it takes ~30 seconds to power up
* menu and contacts navigation is excruciatingly slow.

I regret buying this phone.
