There Once Was an Ugly Duckling…

by airspring , Apr 09 '01
Pros: Vibrating alert, voice dialing, calculator, battery life, weight, an endless list
Cons: Not pretty, no predictive dictionary
I was the proud owner of one of these little ‘beauties’ for about eleven months, and with it being my first mobile phone I was more than pleased with the Philips Savvy.

The features of this phone are clearly the main asset here. The Philips...

Good ol' trusty, you have served me well...

by flautist_y2k , Jul 04 '01
Pros: cheap, durable, sturdy, ol' reliable, hard waring, cheap
Cons: its a little on the boring side and not as stylish as other mobiles
I bought this product for a very fair reason, and that was because it was dirt cheap and I was DESPERATE for a new phone. It is actually a really good phone, and in my opinion, it looks fairly alright. I am on a pay as you go contract, and what attracted...

Why buy a Nokia when you can buy this?

by piesation , Mar 16 '01
Pros: Voice Dial, Vibrator Alert, good reception, picture messaging and Price!
Cons: Size, Unscrewable antenna small LED screen, one button keypad lock, short talk time.
Well there are many reasons to buy a Nokia; brand, functionality, size, snake, and much more. However The Philips Savvy is not a bad phone, in fact it is a very good one. Considering that Philips is not a big player at the moment in the world of Mobile...

A Solid Budget Performer

by ldu95240 , Jan 23 '01
Pros: Value for money, sound quality, impressive features list.
Cons: Small screen, menu system cumbersome, looking a little dated now.
The Savvy DB is based on the C12/C13 family, and is an ideal mobile for those who have just become converted to the "mobile faith". Coming in at around UKP£40 ($75)it represents excellent value for money.

Its low price tag needn't mean a lack...

Irritation

by Mariannon , Aug 26 '00
Pros: Size, ringtones, clarity
Cons: Navigational system
I don't actually own this phone, so maybe my opinion doesn't count as much as someone who does.

Those of you who read my other review on the Ericsson will know I own one of those. However, an amazing number of my friends own this phone, and...

Convenient and pleasant

by 200067 , Mar 05 '01
Pros: great price, many useful features, good sound
Cons: menu, looks yesterday
Available in Savvy the set of functionality's (vibrocall, clock and date, alarm clock, calculator, voice dial - is the yet not full list!) would look pertinently not only in telephone middle-end, but also in telephones of a business-class. And price -...

Ok for a teen

by hunkiemunkey , Jul 08 '01
Pros: Looks, Features,
Cons: Too Heavy, No logos or ringtones, Games, Battery life
I was looking for a mobile about a year ago when I came across the Savvy Vogue. I saw it and I thought wow. I thought it was extremely small as well. 1 year later, it is a big huge brick that is old fashioned and outdated. It was a good phone at first,...

En Vogue?

by Mariannon , Dec 19 '00
Pros: Voice activation, nice appearance, good variety of ringtones
Cons: Very similar to other Savvy phones
This is a cute little phone. It has many little accessories and other things that make it cool, but it's not all that.

This is the Phillips Savvy Vogue, the third in the Savvy Series.

First we had the Savvy. The original. It has a...

Just say it out loud

by m_kingdom , Jun 18 '01
Pros: Ease of use, and voice recognition
Cons: small screen
The Savvy weighs in at 146g with battery. Most of the phone's functions are controlled using a four-way rocker button. The phone makes heavy use of graphical icons. Only two lines of text can be viewed simultaneously, each with only 11 characters....

Sleek and Fun!

by DavidBurden , Mar 22 '01
Pros: Quite small; Smart
Cons: No support for extra ringtones etc..
I got a Savvy DB for Christmas, completely out of the blue in fact, connected to Virgin Mobile. The phone itself is the dictionary definition of smartness. It fits into your pocket easily enough, the few ringtones available are all good, and there's an...
