The phone is good and I can recommend it to anybody to use. The only problem I have with the phone is that one cannot get the original battery in the market. The manufacturer should try and package new set of panasonic x70 with 2 batteries. Adeoye Nigeria

you have no idea what your talking about, you can't comment on the phone until you have actually had it yourself for every day use. i had the phone myself for a good year and a half, its bound to be dated now as it is 3 or more years old. when it came out it was a top of the range phone. it was one of the first phones to have a respectable resolution camera on it. i don't understand how you can rate it so poorly, the only things that let it down are the camera and the fact it has no memory card. but when it came out memory cards weren't about in phones anyway.

I've had this phone for a while and yeah the bluetooth and things are reasonibly good. The camera isn't great but i can live with that. It's not a great looking phone, i think it needs updating and when you open and close the flip the click gets really annoying. I don't like this phone that much but I can live with it until i get a newer up to date one. Overall it's an ok phone but if your looking for a funky, trendy phone I wouldn't recommend it.....

Hello I have had this phone for just over a year. I don't use it very often, mostly there for emergencies as I am disabled. Hubby tried to ring me a couple of months ago and the phone turned itself off. I blamed it being in my bag!! Then I read these reviews. These are the problems I've encountered: Turning itself off for no reason Not being able to turn it back on again Battery not charging properly The clock gaining time - I mean hours.. It has taken me three days to be able to get the phone working and to stay on, except when I had it plugged into the mains. I've had to disable Active Flip, that's great with a flip phone, and I've had to turn off Vibrate. Now if I receive an incoming call or text I can actually answer it, FOR NOW. The clock is keeping the right time.. When I spoke to Panasonic they said they'd never had any problems like this, well they ought to read this site then.. And I would have to pay to get it repaired.. Only two months out of warranty.. I think it's a really poor show when such a large and I though good company, treats their customers like this, I will never buy or recommend Panasonic anything to any one. Thanks

Good all round phone with adequate features. the bluetooth is missing some more advanced features but is more secure because of it. eg my mate couldn't log on to it and see all my files like he can with some phones, also no messages from strangers while in the pub. Had no problems sending receiving files from PC's other phones etc. The camera isn't really that bad. Pictures are small but camera light means you often get a good pic which you can see well on the screen. With the Java you can only download games which use In-Fusio so no extra applets etc & i never worked out if you could get them for free anywhere. Did have some problems with the battery getting a bit loose over time making it switch off and the paint scratches off. Battery time and connection cable were all fine esp if you turn off unnecessary features. Overall a good quality phone but looking forward to a new upgrade.

Having bought this phone second hand after using nokia 6510. Of course the menu is different from nokia. There are few flaws in design. 1. I found the phone switch off by itself for no apparent reason. try to change battery to new replacemnt but to no avail. the cause is SIM card is not inserted properly. 2. There is no way , documented or experienced to take phone numbers from SIM Memory for sending SMS unless number from SIM card memory copied first to phone memory. Battery life is short. Documented at 150 hrs but manage only less than 24 hours with hardly any call.The plus point for this phone is 1. It is small and light-weight, well disigned 2. Keys-Nice feeling. 3. Main screen briliant colour and sub screen with different colour and 4. you cant enjoy the colour if the phone switch itself off(Thats the way to they manage to get 150 hours: I think). I would not commit to recommend it to friends. So Panasonic what has happen ?. Where has all good people gone. And by the way Dont use the camera. The picture produce is lousy. It will break your heart.

Phone was obviously rushed on to the market to stay competetive They should not have bothered I am on my third phone and the same faults were back within days. Now Orange say it will not be replaced only repaired how long to repair just depends they say..... Depends on how far they have stuck their fingers up their A***s. I was in the Orange shop in Doncaster by arrangement and the manager went and hid. The phone rings all day long but never gets answered even the manager at the call centre admitted there was a problem when he spent over three hours trying to contact the shop. I think I will send phone back to Panasonic encased in a block of concrete perhaps they can find a use for it... As a DOOR STOP

Got an X70 as an update, never had a Panasonic before.....never will again! Thought it would be really good to take photo's and download them to my pc, so bought a cheap usb cable from Ebay...it didn't work. Bought a very expensive usb cable from Panasonic........didn't work, website is bloody awful for anyone needing help and there are no instructions anywhere on how to to anything at all!!!!!!!!! Bought an infra-red suite totally expensive! You have already guessed it didn't work, right? Waste of time money and effort. There must be more user friendly phones out there and I'm off to find one! If you're thinking of buying this phone my advice would simply be DON'T!

Waiting delivery for my 4th handset - due to a variety of faults with previous phones. In fact this is my second handset this week alone!!! The battery isn't holding its charge, the phone turns itself off while in pocket, it wouldn't accept incoming calls, the phone becomes extremely hot while on a charge...... Would recommend any other phone but this one.

This is a rubbish fone, can't get any reception indoors and software faults meant that it had to be repaired within the first two weeks. Texting is bad, camera is rubbish, can't get infrared connection to work. No short cut keys and mnenu is horrible. I am giving up and going back to Nokia next time.

I can,t understand why eveyone is saying the phone is so bad, it is awsome,there is so much you can change on it. The texting is so easy and its a good idea that you can save a photo to someones name when they call. Ok the pics are not to good but thats what digital camaras are for.I had a nokia 6100 before this phone, it was very good, never played up once, but it was sooooo boring. My sis has just got the samsung e700 and compared to the x70 the pics are a lot clearer but the phone itself is not as good. I\'d certainly recommend this phone, love it.

ok i juz got the set. which i feel is a total let down from panasonic. well it looks really good, but i will name the faults now. 1. the camera cant take good pictures as it claims, it has blue dot all over the screen. 2. the downloaded ringtones cant be heard at all, so it leaves you with only the default lousy ringtones. 3. the price is too steep for such a lousy phone. 4. its lack of java and 5. i think motorola phone are much more worth it to buy.

Overall a great handset. Lightweight, looks great, nice pictures. Large screen which makes browsing easy. The phone only comes with 1 game, WallBreaker and a very limited choice of ringtones but then you can download them or create your own with the built in composer. Just a couple of grievances 1.The speaker volume is very low, at max it is difficult to hear people at times so I tend to resort to the loud speaker. 2. Very little warning of a low battery. The phone stars to beep like crazy and then dies. Personally as camera phones goes, this phone is small and functional which is an ideal accessory for a girls handbag.

A great handset. Only the lack of Java makes it a real contender against the latest and greatest from Nokia and Ericsson: the bluetooth is well tested, works well in data calls and with bluetooth headsets and the user interface has had a real kick up the backside from the unintuitive (japanese?) one of the GD87, from which this product is clearly based (same Email interface gives it away Pana!) Good positive click on open/close, and the build quality is excellent - no creaking or loose joins here, and the positive feel of the keys puts nokias latest rubbery offerings to shame! Bravo Panasonic, a worthy successor to the GD87. Pity about the lack of Java though.
