Pare, correct me if I'm wrong but I didn't see bluetooth in the specs of this model. So, it's got almost everything except for bluetooth?

Well more or less...It is a budget-like phone so no there isn't any bluetooth :). Still looks cool though! And the price!

Ever wondered why Siemens is not popular in the Philippines?! I think it's pretty decent especially the design, so cool

The CF62 looks like a handbag, he he!!

yea! I wonder why that is? Everyone seems to go for Nokias...(if not then the SE p800...). Oh, about the design: http://clubsonyericsson.com/en/news_semens.shtml & http://clubsonyericsson.com/news/semens_.jpg
At this price maybe Siemens will be popular :)

I think the problem with Filipinos is their attitude. They say that other brands except Nokia are not user-friendly. I think it's a lot of rubbish. Just because they haven't tried it out, doesn't mean that it's not user-friendly. For me, you just have to give yourself time to get used to the phone. I find my dad's M55 ok for texting. My only complaint is lcd... it's yellowish, the screen looks like it's ageing.

As for the CF62, I'm quite skeptic if it's going to be popular here. Remember that consumers here prefer bar type phones and not flip phones. My friend said that it's only here in the Philippines where flips phones aren't popular.

it cam in my shop friday and i must say that its a nice phone.
feels nice, the menu looks better, the icons are nicer (probably because the phone is made by arima).
overal i would say that its a good low end fashion phone.
but i don't like 2 things about it.

1: there are silver bars in the keypad that separete each line, its very unplessant when you type alot of sms.
2: i like the falshy lichts that surround the phone, but there just in white, it would've been better if they where in more colors.

but even with these disadvantages i would say
apporved by bart :)

and yes as an SE fan i can like othere phones 2 :)

Cool :cool:

Is Siemens popular in the UK? Coz honestly, I find it difficult to send sms using a Siemens phone. Maybe I'm just not used to it.
