I had this and used it extensively. Typing was very fast and easy if you were ambidextrous... Had a premium feeling to it, I might still have it stored somewhere. It was a bit big but felt solid and fit ergonomically in hand.

    Siemens ME45i is one of the best devices of those times. I would buy one still, just for collection.

      Siemens A35 was my second phone in life after my Nokia 8800 has been stolen.
      Paid 20k slovak crowns for that Nokia and had it only for like a month. In that time it was like 700 euros. In present it would be around 1200 euros after infaltion.
      That was dissaster but uiit was 18 years ago.
      Since then i never bought phone above 400 euros.

        Siemens was such a reliable cellphone brand. I had one of their phones with an orange display, it was awesome. I also remember i saw an ad of their phone on TV with a very stylish body (for that era), and i was impressed with it's design.

        Too bad they stopped making phones in the beginning of the smartphone era. I'm sure they would've produced some of the finest smartphones today...

            So this was competitor for Nokia 6600, I never knew. Siemens was extremely popular in my country together with Nokia, Ericsson, Motorola. But during the gprs era, Nokia dominated. I only knew siemens phones with gam capabilities. This is actually cool.

                I miss Siemens, They had such nice collection of phones. I still think that just after SE K750i Siemens CX65 is one of best looking phone I ever saw.
                Siemens should go back to mobile market, at least with one phone every year. They had balls and ideas that no other company had.

                  Memories about Siemens. My mom's first phone was of Siemens, I don't even remember the model. It was in 2002.
