Short Review
- The Siemens SX1 features a compact design with dimensions of 109 x 56 x 19 mm and a weight of 116g, making it portable and easy to handle.
- The 2.2-inch TFD display supports 65K colors with a resolution of 176 x 220 pixels, providing decent clarity for its time.
- Performance is driven by a TI OMAP 310 chipset with a 120 MHz ARM9 CPU and 16MB of storage, which is limited by modern standards.
- The camera is basic, offering a VGA rear sensor without optical image stabilization or a front-facing camera.
- Battery capacity is 1000mAh, supporting basic usage but lacking fast or wireless charging.
- The device runs on Symbian 6.1 with a Series 60 v1.0 user interface, which was innovative for its era but may feel outdated now.
- Connectivity options include Bluetooth 1.1, but it lacks WiFi and 5G support.
- The absence of a headphone jack and stereo speakers limits audio versatility.
- The phone is available in an ice blue color, adding a touch of style.
- Overall, the Siemens SX1 is a functional device that reflects early 2000s mobile technology.
