Philips Xenium: Simply Wow
It’s all I can say for this less than 150USD mobile phone. It’s looks is pretty ok, it’s specs are pretty so-so, but the battery life is the premium here.
The best feature I found was the auto turn-on and turn-off at a desired time you set, not that it needs this feature to save power, it is just an added plus. The power bar is the common 5 bar type, which I wish would have been better with an actual figure and percentage numbers. That 5 bars signify 12 days of standby. Now divide 12 by 5 and that is roughly how you figure out how much time you have left.
Philips Xenium 9@9
It has a VGA camera which takes average shots, although it doesn’t look pretty nice on the Xenium’s colored screen since the screen is an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED). Transfer the pictures on a computer and it looks pretty fine for modest use.
One of the actual stories connected to the Philips Xenium 9@9 is when a bunch of backpakers in China, in the Jinggang mountains last October 2001 were lost for 80 hours. One of them had a Xenium phone (I guess the older models), twenty hours later they were rescued thanks to an SMS exchange of the lost group with the rescue team.
