Pros: small; nicely shaped; excellent interface; fantastic battery life; quality screen; very durable; awesome volume control
Cons: lots of memos, but rather short in length; no reminders;
The Bottom Line: I would definitely recommend the LG c1300 due to its high durability, long battery life, ease of use, and good looks.

| autarkic's Full Review: Philips 636 Cell Phone |
I guess that my experience was different than the previous reviewers'. I've had mine for about half a year now and the only flaw was that it originally had sub-par reception. Around December of '04 LG replaced the antenna on the c1300 and they even sent a new one through the mail to me without it having been requested. Now the phone gets the best reception I've seen and I do a fair amount of traveling. The battery on this phone is absolutely amazing in its longevity. I went on vacation out of the country and left it on so that the battery would run out in order to prolong its life. I came back after 8 days and the thing was still on, albeit at zero battery bars. I've also dropped it on several occasions and the worst thing to happen was that it shut off after falling off a table. As for software: the interface is excellent and there is a huge amount of space for memos, but there aren't any reminders; only an alarm. The phone also has up and down volume buttons perfectly in reach of the fingers that hold it so you don't even have to pause the conversation to change it. An additional feature is that if the phone is closed and you hold one of the volume buttons for a few seconds the phone automatically goes on silent mode with vibration.
