Reviewed by Lawrence M on 27/02/2009 I love the VS6. I've had it for three years now, and even though someone gave me their old Nokia N95, I sold it and kept this. It does what I want and every time I flip it up, I feel like Jim Kirk! Best phone I've ever owned. Rating:    
Reviewed by George on 16/02/2009 I think most of the people who reviewed the Panasonic VS6 said almost everything about it. The reason I'm writing this review after all these years of using it (almost 3 yrs) is its durability. So please note the following incidents: 1. My kids threw it in a cap of hot coffee for almost half an hour (camera inside the cup). It still works fine (and the camera too). 2. It fell in the kitchen sink (full of water). It still works. 3. I forgot it all night long on the garden table (it was pouring all night). It still works. 4. It fell of numerous times of the bike. It still works. Honestly, I could be writing pages of incidents where other cell phones would have definitely failed. VS6's durability is unprecedented. I would gladly buy a newer model based on that.

Reviewed by fifi47 on 28/08/2008 I've had mine for 2 and a half years and it is amazing - I can't give it away! The screen is its best feature and the camera is also good. The only bad things are its battery standby, loading time, and the memory... But that is fine because it is really good! Rating:    
Reviewed by Karl Barnacle on 15/08/2008 My phone is the Panasonic VS6 and i think it's the best phone ever!! it's beautiful and sleek and stylish ans offers loyal service 24 hours a day. i don't know what i'd do if it weren't for the VS6. thanks panasonic! My friend had one too but it couldn't offer him more memory so it had to go. RIP VS6. Rating:    
Reviewed by victor adams on 26/05/2008 this is very TAPA phone Rating:    
Reviewed by Tristan on 11/01/2008 I've had this phone just over 2 years now and it's never failed me ... although it doesn't look very stylish, the camera is good, the battery life is long and it's dead easy to use. Mine even survived being dragged through the sand 18 months ago! The only annoyance with the VS6 is that the plastic cover on the back occasionally falls off as its not very well attached. Rating:    
Reviewed by Toelie Theron on 10/01/2008 I love my Vs6. Its a plain- wusiwug phone. Has THE best screen view wich is the reason I bought it. Even on a bright sunny day you can still see the display perfectly. This phone is just as easy to use as any Nokia, and wont dissapoint. Rating:    
Reviewed by Lara on 08/01/2008 I've been using it for a year and I am so happy with my phone! The pics it takes are even better than some or our old digital cameras here at the library I work for, so it's been a real life saver. On the bad side, the software is not Vista compatible (surprise, surprise...) so I had a hard time using the usb. Rating:    
Reviewed by najirb on 05/12/2007 This phone is outstanding for the price. Had the VS2 for a year which was very good. Upgraded to the VS6 15 months ago and it is still superb. Lots of features and very intuitive to use. All the keys/menus are laid out exactly as one would expect (Unlike the Moto Razr) This phone is better than most costing three times as much and at this price, there is nothing better. If you want a cheap phone that has all the main features, look no further than the VS6 Rating:    
Reviewed by Mike on 11/11/2007 I've now had the phone for 2 years, and it's never failed me. The camera has still yet to be matched for the price and although it may not have a huge number of features, it is fantastic value for the price range. Rating:

Reviewed by Jacqui on 02/10/2007 Got this phone last year. Screen size excellent. Can hold over 100 text's sent and recieved so in that way excellent. Camera ok. Only gripe would be orange do not recognise it and can not get gprs on it so can't download anything. very frustrating.other than that easy to use. looking to replace this year. looking at sony ericssonW880i is it any good? Rating:    
Reviewed by Stevo on 22/08/2007 I have been using mobile phones since the very first suitcase style monsters and in that time I have tried to stay as close to the advances as possible, from the Nokia, Sony etc etc there is no doubt in my mind that the VS6 is the best phone I have ever owned. Not pretty but in a leather case who cares. This piece of technology marks a milestone in common sense. Simple, reliable, and the battery goes for up to a week. Perfect. Rating:    
Reviewed by Simon Desmet on 06/08/2007 Like it very much. It's quick, never has problems, and it's battery is very good Rating:

Reviewed by SS on 25/05/2007 I have had this phone for nearly 2 years now, and I strongly recommend it for price. The camera is good, but it hasn't got a flash or a cover, but the shots are good! From the outside it looks quite tacky but once you flip it open it's really good! One thing I don't like about it is that it doesn't have a usb for the computer and the video quality isn't that good, but overall, it's brilliant. Rating:

Reviewed by james on 09/05/2007 I had the misfortune of getting this with my birthday money yes it has all that stuff above but it dose not tell u the bad points 1 .cannot send or receive any thing over a 1 mb so no songs or music 2 .very very quiet speaker so you would have to bee in some where very quite 3 .the battery life is terrible about1.5 days max 4 .buttons are too small in the middle so you press the wrong buttons all the time 5 .rubbish design - it has a button which flips it up and can open its self in your pocket which turns the screen on and lowers the battery life 6 .you can only get the most basic games on it and you have to downlode them which costs loads 7 .even though it has a 2.2 inch 6,000,000 color screen the video sises is about 2 cm achross 8 .the providers (e.g 02)contacts come before yours do in the phone book and if you delete them they come back 9 .the blue tooth on it only stays visable for 5 mins at a time which is annoying 10 . the price i bought this phone for £90 now one of the best phones ever the sony erricson k750i has come out fore cheaper 11 .it can only video for a 1 minute and the quality is terrible and dotty it seems like it is only 0.5 megapixles so the only good things i would say about this phone is the amassing screen and camera if i was gonna buy a new phone it would not be this one so dont buy one because you will regret it forever! james Rating:    
Reviewed by Neville on 07/04/2007 This is an amazing phone to use with great menu structure ect. but the phones capabilities are severely limited by dismal bluetooth capabilities. Nice one Panasonic but more bluetooth capability is a MUST these days. Rating:

Reviewed by Luke on 17/03/2007 As everyone jas said, amazing phone for the money! I got it on Contract, and followed a Moto V620. Although the Moto was ov good build, it lacked features etc, and the panasonic is pretty damn good! 2mp cam, video, bluetooth, iR etc etc My only complaint about it is that o2 do not support the phone for email/mms etc - which is strange as it was taken on an o2 contract! It doesnt even received the 'You have received you MMS settings' text when putting in a PAYG sim card! Rating:

Reviewed by Ella on 27/02/2007 This phone really is amazing. I have had it for 8 months now, the only fault i have found with it, is that mine seems to have a battercover which is easy to accidently remove. It hasnt caused too much hasstle tho, and Im sure there is a way to remedy it. It really is one of the best phones I have ever had. Its a real phone. Non of this uber thin buttons diddy small so you cant press them nonsense. This is a great phone. Rating:    
Reviewed by Ashton on 19/02/2007 This is a great phone in the way of features and the only drawback I can see is the small and non-expandable memory. As phones go it is not particularly sleek or elegant but it's definently not ugly. Rating:    
Reviewed by Alex on 19/02/2007 Quite good for da money, da only problems are dat the camera doesn't zoom quickly and that much, you can't take pics while moving, isn't an mp3, and doesn't have romovable memory. Oh yeah, the video's blocky. Thinking of getting next da sagem my 600v, da alcatel OT-E801 or da emblaze touch 7 - a bit of a step down on the camera but i don't use dat that much and they have mp3 players and removable memory Rating:    
Reviewed by scott on 14/01/2007 its an awesum fone but a pity about the memory and its not memory card compatible :( Rating:    
Reviewed by Fearghal on 16/10/2006 i have had this phone since january, and now its october, and for Benny M, yes you can have predictive txt, simply when your in new message go to options, then input method, and choose wat one you want, next of all, you can have the beeping sound off the dials even when not on silent, its easy, go to settings, then phone settings, then key settings, then u have to choose one of 4 key tones, but here the simple yet clever bit, to to key volumer and put to 0, see!!! ok now my own view on the phone, at start i loved it, but later on down the line im not so sure, lets just say iv gotten used to it lol, its just so big, a brick more or less, the camera, yes ok its 2.0mp, but you wudnt kno it compared to a samsung d600 camera. and there no flash, which makes it hard to take pics during the night. the screen is great, really clear and big, fantasic, 10/10 for screen. its a shame that it hasnt got an mp3 player, and the most annoying thin g is, when someone trys to send you a sound clip, it cant be longer then 1.00min, thats really the only main problem i have with this phone, and for £120 (less now) i think its really good "phone" for your money. i really like the wee button on the side to open the phone, its become 2nd nature for me, and when i look at other flip phones i keep placing my thumb up on the side waitng for it to flip open lmao. unforunentley in my phone (i dont kno if it happens to any other the phones) but my centre key, the wee sluver one, it keeps sliding out of place, and i have to push it back into place which can be frustrating at time, but im sure thats my phone. overall i do like the phone, but my dad got a new contract phone, and when the 12 months are up im going to get a samsung d900, hopefully it will be stil advanced enough in a years time lol. but yes i would get this phone!!! wow i really did write alot didnt i!! lol, must of been inspired!!

Reviewed by michael on 13/08/2006 i bought my vs6 for my son and he said it was so good, i bought one for myself. the picture quality is out of this world, and i think it is the best phone under £175 ever. Rating:    
Reviewed by Benny M on 19/07/2006 This is about the worst phone I've ever owned and I'll tell you why! 1. Texting: Texting isn't simple. It takes an ice age to send one text. There is no predictive text that I can find, though I don't much care for predictive anyway. The phone is so slow and guarenteed, if you press the buttons quick-ish - which I do - the phone locks up and hangs. For no reason. Just that it can't handle the moderate speed I text at. Secondly - unless you have the phone on silent, the keypad beeps on every damn letter you type. So, to type the letter f, for example, you'll get 3 beeps - just to type F! Its an annoying beep too. 2. Call quality is absolutely awful. Its quiet, the speaker is so tiny, my hair can obscure it and then I can't hear the person at all. 3. Battery life. Oh dear me. I've had my VS6 since March, and its now July, and i've gone from having 3-4 days battery life, to around 36 hours battery life. God forbid you make a phone call when you've only 2 bars (out of three) left, and you'll go down to almost nil battery life! 4. Speaker isn't loud enough. I am in london alot, and don't think i've once heard my phone go off while wandering around. So alot of my credit seems to go on phoning my voice-mail. 5. the navigation button is awful. 6. To get to the missed calls menu you have to actually get a missed call in the first place! Dialed numbers had a button, why not msised calls? As you cant hear the damn thing when it goes off, surely access to the missed calls is a nessisity? This phone does have good points. Sonic the hedgehog is a nice little novelty, camera's okay (noisey in comparison to some phones though) and... thats about it. Don't buy this phone. Seriously. Its dreadful! Rating:    
Reviewed by Ian on 17/07/2006 Have wanted the Panasonic VS6 for a while, but not been able to afford it until now. Have read every review on many sites, and agree with all the posative comments passed, suberb phone, classy looks and feel, with a superb camera, which brings me to the query by Mickey and his review dated 18.06.2006 and his comment about the Macro Mode Switch function, although a phone first and foremost, the macro switch allows close up photos to be taken, I have yet to find out how close, but I suggest 20cm would be near enough. 65 pounds well spent. Rating:    
Reviewed by dominic on 09/07/2006 this fone is amazing i cant belive how wonderful it is. its got the best screen ive ever seen on a fone . its camera is great too Rating:    
Reviewed by mikey on 18/06/2006 This phone is a dude of a phone, hear me now. The camera's so high quality and multi-shot is cool aswell. The video is fine but the sound is too quiet. The speakers too quiet aswell which just adds to the whole video thingy. The sound recorder is at the perfect recording volume which really makes you wonder what happened to the video. The ringtones it comes with are fine but any you put on there are too quiet. I thought that 32mb memory wasn't much when i first got the phone but for the price it's all you should expect. You can't send or recieve anything over a megabite using the bluetooth or infared but you can up to 6.5mb using the pc cable. The screen is unbeatable, seriously now. Just about the only other phones with 16 million colour displays are from the panasonic vs series; its only equaled by its own blood. And its huge... 2.2inch 320X240 pixels, how buff is that? The graphics on screen you know like the menus and all that are so good. Samsung have made it their mission in life to make decent phones with all these buisness features and then finish it off with a cluttered wallpaper and ugly menus which look as if they were designed by an efficient german or polish man. These one are super good looking and easy to use on any colour scheme. Shame about the keypad, ruins the whole look. And you can't get the better looking red one anywhere. The light on the front makes up for that. It does all these crazy patterns in 7 colours. If someone sends you a text with an emoticons it even lights up according to the mood of them. The games are good too. It comes with the origional Sonic the Hedgehog + level select - special stages which kind of makes sense as they didn't unlock anything. And finally theres Panasonic Box. It's this place where all the content is designed especially for the phone and it's free, you only pay the wap charge. In the likely event you buy this phone after reading my review you should download Lamb Dash. Oh yeah I know this site isn't a blog but theres a button on it called the MAcro Mode Switch and i can't work out what it's for. It does nothing to the pc or phone, it's not in the manual, well the name is but it doesn't say what it does. It's so insignificant it doesn't even put the backlight on when you switch it. Is it like tonsols. Humans have evolved beyond the need for them but we still have them. Maybe in the concept design for this phone it had a purpose but they removed that feature and left the button purely to annoy people like me. BUY THIS PHONE FOR YOUR OWN SAKE Rating:    
Reviewed by Glenn McKenna on 17-06-2006 Got this phone in Dublin, Eire... brilliant cam & the phone has nearly a cool 80's sci-fi vibe bout it wen ya look at it long enough. This is my 5th Panasonic mobile & I swear by em. Tis grand to be different.. don't be sucked into gettin the so called 'better' brands others have... they can't see quality & value wen it comes a beggin! VS6 is a remarkable production, so much to the basis that the other brands should take a leaf. Panasonic - take a bow - NOW! ()=) Rating:    
Reviewed by Roeland on 05-06-2006 I have this phone for 4 months now and it's the best value for money you'll ever find...
