There Once Was an Ugly Duckling?

byairspring Apr 9, 2001
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Vibrating alert, voice dialing, calculator, battery life, weight, an endless list
Cons Not pretty, no predictive dictionary
Recommended it? Yes

I was the proud owner of one of these little ?beauties? for about eleven months, and with it being my first mobile phone I was more than pleased with the Philips Savvy.

The features of this phone are clearly the main asset here. The Philips Savvy is simply slitting at the seams with handy... Read full review »

Pros Voice activation, nice appearance, good variety of ringtones
Cons Very similar to other Savvy phones
Recommended it? Yes

This is a cute little phone. It has many little accessories and other things that make it cool, but it's not all that.

This is the Phillips Savvy Vogue, the third in the Savvy Series.

First we had the Savvy. The original. It has a good collection of ringtones, a fun Biocalender... Read full review »

Pros Size, ringtones, clarity
Cons Navigational system
Recommended it? Yes

I don't actually own this phone, so maybe my opinion doesn't count as much as someone who does.

Those of you who read my other review on the Ericsson will know I own one of those. However, an amazing number of my friends own this phone, and one of my friends and I swapped phones for a... Read full review »

Pros Ease of use, and voice recognition
Cons small screen
Recommended it? Yes

The Savvy weighs in at 146g with battery. Most of the phone's functions are controlled using a four-way rocker button. The phone makes heavy use of graphical icons. Only two lines of text can be viewed simultaneously, each with only 11 characters. Despite this, finding the functions that you want... Read full review »

Pros Is small and light and i got free insurance for a year.
Cons Is ugly, expensive text messages.
Recommended it? No

First of all it is so unfashionable. I walk around with my friends and they all have the latest nokia's which is whatn I want. I recieved this phone as a present and If i hadn't I wouldn't have bought it. They ordered it over the net so they got a year free insurance. It has no games and the only... Read full review »

3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Voice Dial, Vibrator Alert, good reception, picture messaging and Price!
Cons Size, Unscrewable antenna small LED screen, one button keypad lock, short talk time.
Recommended it? Yes

Well there are many reasons to buy a Nokia; brand, functionality, size, snake, and much more. However The Philips Savvy is not a bad phone, in fact it is a very good one. Considering that Philips is not a big player at the moment in the world of Mobile Phones, I think that it has done and excellent... Read full review »

A Solid Budget Performer

Pros Value for money, sound quality, impressive features list.
Cons Small screen, menu system cumbersome, looking a little dated now.
Recommended it? Yes

The Savvy DB is based on the C12/C13 family, and is an ideal mobile for those who have just become converted to the "mobile faith". Coming in at around UKP#40 ($75)it represents excellent value for money.

Its low price tag needn't mean a lack of features, the Savvy features 22 different... Read full review »

Pros cheap, durable, sturdy, ol' reliable, hard waring, cheap
Cons its a little on the boring side and not as stylish as other mobiles
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this product for a very fair reason, and that was because it was dirt cheap and I was DESPERATE for a new phone. It is actually a really good phone, and in my opinion, it looks fairly alright. I am on a pay as you go contract, and what attracted me to this particular phone not only was its...

Pros Quite small; Smart
Cons No support for extra ringtones etc..
Recommended it? Yes

I got a Savvy DB for Christmas, completely out of the blue in fact, connected to Virgin Mobile. The phone itself is the dictionary definition of smartness. It fits into your pocket easily enough, the few ringtones available are all good, and there's an excellent vibrate function to boot. The screen... Read full review »
