lockdown189's Review of Panasonic X70

Good Points

PANASONIC X70 - Clamshell Woman's Business Phone with Bluetooth and Infrared.
Great Vibrant and Sharp Screen, with Brilliant 16 tone polyphonics, Email, MMS, SMS and Chat mode, plus Photo Phone book, and many other great features.


Bad Points

No Java Download, only the inferior Infusio Games engine, and no Word Wrap like the Nokia phones, but this is not a disadvantage as I have found in day to day usage of this phone.


General Comments

I had heard many comments against the anasonci X70 mobile phone, even from the local Orange shop. I was told not to buy this phone, but I thought I would give the phone a chance, and decided to buy it.
I must have dropped on one of the last issued handsets, as the box was clearly labelled a contract model, but was being sold as pay as you go.
It was £130 in June 2004, which was a big reduction from its original price.
The phone is loud, reliable, compact, and the Bluetooth works a dream, especially with an Apple iMac Macintosh G4 with Bluetooth Adapter, (not sure how well with a PC, having not used Bluetooth on one). The Bluetooth transfer also worked well with other phones, minus the Motorola V600, and also worked well with a Bluetooth headset.
As said above, the only things that could have been added were Java Download, and Word Wrap, which I believe has been corrected on the new Panasonic X700, so should be on all other new phones coming from Panasonic.
Highly recommended, especially if seen at a knock down price.

    I've had my X70 for over a year and cannot fault it. I recently took delivery of a Sharpe GX30 (contract) but I much prefer the X70. Anyone want to buy a GX30?

    If you like the X70, you'll love the new Panasonic VS6. Its only £100 and has a simply astonishing 2 megapixel camera, video plus all the rest of the usual features.
