Written on: 24/09/2008 by jacquielipton
I have purchased two MY X6-2 mobile telephones and the first one would not charge properly and the second the key 7-pqrs and 8tuv plus the space bar do not work. I have no address therefore I am unable to return them to Sagem. I purchased these without insurance through Utility Warehouse. I have now bought another phone. I do therefore not recommend the Sagem MYX-5 as I have not bought another mobile phone. (read more)

The Sagem MY X-5 mobile phone has been a very reliable and easy to use handset for the year and a half that I have had it. It also comes in at a good price if you hunt around for the right deal.
It has a number of features, including a very good and easy to use WAP browser, a superb menu layout (beating Nokia, once you have got used to it), vibrate alert, caluculator, currency converter, automatic network selection for when you go abroad (so you do not have to manually fiddle with the...

I have had my Sagem MY X-5 since March now and think it is a very good little mobile phone. It has some good ringtones and games. The good thing about is that there are many websites that you can download free polyphonic ringtones, wallpapers and screensavers for. But you do need to get a data link cable first which are about £20 from www.sagem.com. I was happy with my phone, but got bored with the wallpapers and ringtones, so I purchased a cable and made my own website for all other sagem... (read more)

The Sagem MY X-5 is a cool looking mobile phone but i cant find any changeable covers.
This phone is ok. I still would say that nokia is better by far. As everything is set up for nokia and based on the web. Over all the fone is allrite but could be doing with a little extra features. Such as in the text messages you should be able to see when you exceed the 1 message limit instead of having to guess.
Ringtones should be more accessable like nokia.

Written on: 18/11/2003 by bunniesandcrows (3 reviews written)
It's really easy to use and the speaker phone facility you get by pressing the call key twice is incredibly handy. It's small, light, lasts ages and has 40 polyphonic ringtones. You can vary the volumes easily mid call to suit you and there's lots of space to store texts (100 I think, compared to Nokia's 15). The WAP is a bit scary, but generally easy to use.
It's very easy to dial by accident (I recently did while the phone was in my bag and it cost me £2!). It does have a lock facility to...

I got this Sagem MY X-5 phone purely after looking at the features. With hindsight, I wouldn't of, it is very unreliable in terms of battery life, I have had several batteries, and two replacement phones. Nothing makes a difference and I have resigned myself to having to charge it every evening (I'm in a low signal area, so that may have something to do with it)
Despite having the phone a year, I haven't found any of the interchangeable covers I've heard about, the data cable I got was...

The phone has a nice layout and after a little playing around you can breeze through the functions.The sound quality is very good the ear piece sounds crisp and clear.It has changeable covers so if you fancy dressing it up let yourself go. Now to the little flaws..It's rather slow to charge from empty about 2-3 hours so loads of time to cut the lawn...also when you turn the phone on the battery meter is a little slow to give you a true reading..but it gets there after about 3 or 4 mins.It's...

This is my first Sagem & I have had this phone for a few months now, & while it looks the part , it is seriously let down by the poor quality of the case & keys, making this phone feel like a second rate Nokia clone.
The features & ease of use are easily on par with, if not better, than many other phones in this price bracket, but the cheap feel of this phone could dissuade potential buyers.
Overall, if you can put up with the "cheapness" of the MY-X5, then it is a good phone & very easy...

Well what can I say, Sagem have really knocked the spots off Nokia with this little stunner! For starters I wanted a phone that looks good, and this one sure lives up to that, I've got a matt black clip on cover on it and it looks just suave! One little niggle I have with the phone is that when you have over a hundred texts stored it tends to slow down a little, but nothing major. Other than that it's got everything you could ask for from a phone, including heaps of wallpapers to save you... (read more)

well what can i say, well the sagem my-x5 is not even close to a nokia.
<br>i had one for about a week and i was going to give it to charity but the phone was that crud i didn't bother.
<br>as for loads of features what features the phone is pants.
<br>it takes about a week to come on and the software is so slow you just chuck it at the wall.
<br>the only thing good about this phone is the screen(which is really naff) and some of the ringtones.
<br>plus you nearly break your fingers trying to get the back cover off.
<br>i just cant belive that you said this phone is better than a nokia.
<br>the phones below are the ones i've owned.

<br>hahaha a bit thick mmmmmmmmmmmm????????????
<br>so you have defended a review which makes you as bad.
<br>sagem will never be as good as nokia, thats a fact(search the forums to see what people really think.

I like the phone. You can get a data cable for £5.99 from http://www.cellsavers.co.uk/acatalog/Cellular_Accessories_Sagem_30.html . You can also get ringtones, wallpapers and screensavers from http://uk.geocities.com/sagem_myx5_fun . this site is a good site that is being upgraded at the moment. it should have a good selection and good advice on it within the next few weeks. Visit it and see if it is up and running. also sine the guest book or send wallpapers etc to it was with a bigger selection there will be more demand for more wallpapers, ringtones etc to be added and downloaded. This is all FREE

This is a really excellent little phone. It does everything that you could want it to do and a little more. Probably more of a girly phone though to be truthful.

It looks nice, but you can't speed dial any numbers, you have to go into the phone book. When you have a missed call, it just says "1 call" in tiny writing at the bottom of the screen (easily overlooked. There is no icon or prominent on screen message, and if you have it in power saving mode, turning the phone on to illuminate the screen obscures this 1 call message with the word "menu." If you press the green button to go into the call records, it doesn't distinguish between missed calls... (read more)

You're quite right, i was a bit hasty. You can go straight to the massage. Is there anyway you can get a normal alert for messages (without downloading), like on other phones? I can only choose from the normal ringtones you have for calls, and when you get a message it does several rings and i just want a beep. And in the call records, the icons don't distinguish between missed and received calls, which is a pain. And the ring volume is fairly low, even at maximum.

In the calls menu you can easily see what are recieved and what are the outgoing calls! At the top left hand corner there is an icon of a phone and an arrow. If the arrow is pointing to the phone then it is a recieved call and if it's pointing away then it is an outgoing call.

I received this phone as a gift in Hong Kong and I really do enjoy using this phone, besides the common varieties offered by the larger companies. I have searched everywhere to this question and the Sagem website does not list it. The question is if this myX-5 support dual band modes. I am currently using it in Canada and there is a mobile phone company that does support 800/1800/1900 frequencies.
<br>
<br>I know for a fact that Hong Kong uses 800 & 1800 so there is a compatability between the two cities. I have looked through the menus of the phone but I cannot find the option to choose which frequency to use. Am I missing something or does this phone NOT support other operating frequencies? What frequency does this phone run on anyways? It was never listed on the Sagem website at all.

I bought the Sagem MY X-5 mobile phone about a week ago and its by far the best budget phone on the market, i got mine on t-mobile for £100! Everything about it is faultless, some of the reviews on here are far to picky. If your after a cheap, really cute and goodlooking phone loaded with features then this is the one for you.

i dont think it is that good, due to the fact that you can search the web for hours and not find anything to dowload for this model. On the whole it is a great phone to have and is very reliable and light and different. If you want a phone that is one in a million this is the phone for you.

Is it only me?
Or does anyone else suffer,horrible ear pain from these phones?
Granted, it has the 'loud speaker' .Which I have resorted to. just to get the thing as far from my head as possible. But generally, I fear there is something unregulated about the amount of radiation these things put out.
Please can we have a rating for pain put on this site?

Rundiez's Response to Spare Teddy.'s Review
Written on: 14/09/2003
You said that you suffered ear pain because of this phone. I think you should see a doctor, because you might have a disease. The phone is not the cause of your ear pain. The speaker has a volume setting that you can adjust by pressing the left or right button just below the display (if is to loud you can press the left button) while you talk. The level of radiation at maximum power is 0,64 W/kg while the maximum limit admited by the Council of Europe is 2 W/kg.

<br>Before posting bad reviews about mobile phones please read carefully the operating instructions and learn how to use your phone.

This is not a review, but is a list of places where you can find ringtones, wallpapers & screensavers etc for your SAGEM MY-X5 and MY-G5.
More and more SAGEM users are actually starting to create their OWN websites specifically for these phones (MY-G5 and MY-X5). You will find things such as polyphonic ringtones, musical ringtones, wallpapers, sceensavers etc. and more and more files will be added to these sites in next to no time!
Remember that you first need to buy a DATA CABLE (£12) and download some free UPLOADING SOFTWARE in order to start uploading ringtones & wallpapers etc to your phone.
Get the sagem my-X5 data cable for £12 directly from the sagem online shop, it's the same one that is used for the sagem my-G5 too. it works the same for both models:
http://www.sagem-online.com
(allow about 10-14 days for it to be deilvered to your house, and delivery is free.)
Then you need to download the free Sagem My Pictures and Sounds uploading software from here:
http://www.sagemonline.com/EN/faq/gsm/faq_gsm.htm
And once you have both of these items, you are now ready to start getting some free ringtones/wallpapers for your my-G5!
GO TO THESE DOWNLOAD SITES:
http://www.mysagem.co.uk/
(SpunkyMunky's website, very good)
http://uk.geocities.com/polysagem/index.html
(A good site, with good downloads. More Midis than anything else.)
http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/mysagem/
(A valuable source of info, and downloads for the Sagem MYX-5)
http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/nik99net/
(Another good Sagem MYX-5 and MYG-5 group)
http://sagem-myx5.chez.tiscali.fr/
(A French site with a good choice of stuff to download)
http://www.cjtonline.net/sagem/
(Seej's Sagem my-X5 and my-G5 website)
http://members.lycos.co.uk/sagemx5/
(Another sagem user's website, he has just started it)
http://www.ewtoo.org/~matt/sagem/
(There's Some nice stuff here too)
http://www.planetsagem.com
(A site created by sagem for sagem users, but it has very poor quality design and content in all honesty, best to avoid this website until they improve imo. i just put the link here so you know what/where it is)
Have fun!!!
BY THE WAY, THE SAGEM MY-G5 ROCKS! FINALLY, A STYLISH HANDSET SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR MOBILE GAMING!!
Cheers guys ;)

I received my X-5 free as an upgrade through Orange. It's a lovely size and the speaker phone is a great idea. The lack of "normal" ringtones is frustrating. I don't particularly want the sound of a fog horn or dog barking ringing out when I'm on a packed train. (read more)

I got mine free with Orange too, which is pretty remarkable when you have a butchers at the Sagem website - it's listed for something like £360 there! Think you're being a bit harsh with your review though. There is a normalish ring tone you can select. I know what you mean about the dogs and fog horn though - it can make you look pretty stupid in public! I downloaded Pearl and Dean to it via a data cable (the actual soundtrack, not some plinky plonky nonsense), which has earned some respect in the office, although it's still a mite embarassing when you're in the barber's. Battery life isn't great though. Orange quotes 10 days standby time - it's more like 6.

I found a good site for logos, backgrounds etc. Go to www.esato.com Go on Ericson T68 stuff and most can be downloaded on the Sagem. To send tones, save them and transfer them via IR (bought a seperate kit from a computer shop) Software can be downloaded from Sagem site or from CD provided. (read more)

I've gone through a Siemans M35i and a Motorola Timeport 260 in the past year. I needed a cool phone (Only 16) for a cool price, this was the phone I wanted. I was on Virgin mobile and wanted to stay, so I started looking for SIM free mobiles as I didn't need another SIM card. All the 'Cool' mobiles were in the £200 region, I couldn't afford this. So I had to put my buying off till I could afford one of them. Then I went into a Virgin Megastore and saw the Sagem myX-5 for £139.99, a 'Cool'... (read more)

Had a motorola v60i which ended up dead after an accident. I was going to opt for the samsung t100, but then after calculating the cost effect, the Sagem MY X-5 is excellent for its price.
GPRS, wap works for sure, i have tested them myself. You can upload wav as ringtones (any wav file) and bmp as wallpapers. The 256 colour screen is wonderful, far better than monochrome screens. I have used a sony ericsson t68i, and the colour screen are almost the same..

Since gaining this Sagem MY X-5 phone on Monday (29th Dec 02) i have found this phone very easy to use. I had it for £139.99 on Virgin Mobile with £35 free airtime. The colour screen on it is very good although not as good as higher priced coloured screen phones. This can be expected though although the screen is fully coloured.
The ringtones on the phone are very good although a few more of what i like are available of www.sagem.com if you have a data cable which i do not have yet. The...

To all people who are looking for a place to download sagem my-x5 logos, wallpapers and ringtones. go to
www.uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/nik99net/
you have to have a Yahoo ID but this is very easy to get and once you are logged in you will find a great selection of ringtones, wallpapers and other cool stuff.
i have found this site very useful.
PS you must have a data cable to download free sagem my x5 logos and wallpapers otherwise you will have to pay around 3 pounds to get one from one of those horrible places like monkey mob or monster mob etc. You will also have to download sagem my pictures and logos at www.sagem.com or Plug In Out, a great feature that lets you choose any bmp or gif or whatever picture as an image, make it fit on the screen of the phone, and then send it to your sagem My-X5 via the data cable (look on ebay for a cheap one)

I think the coloured screen is brilliant and is a nice and small shape. My signal is fine and miles better than any previous phone. Only problem where can you get tones sent to your phone. (read more)

To download ringtones simply ask jeeves, "where can i find ringtones for the sagem myx-5" and click on the question appropriate, they cost about 3 quid but its worth it ; )

Written on: 28/12/2002 by Chris Banes.
Let it be known, this phone is a good phone for £130, I got it for Christmas on T-Mobile (UK). I hear people moaning about the reception, but with me, it's fine and much better than my last phone (Nokia 3510). The thing that attracted me to this phone was probably the colour screen and the fact that it looks good too. The colour screen is good, although it isn't quite as colourful as others I have seen. This phone has tried to live up to to the Ericsson T68, it's very similar. The keypad is... (read more)
