its a nice (and kinda tough-looking) phone...

sana nga mas bigger ang screen. it looks pretty much like the Nokia 5210.

I got mine three months ago. Made in Korea. 18K kuha ko, with one year service warranty sa ePhone. Maganda tong phone either para sa outdoor types, o yung madalas makabagsak ng phone (tulad ko). Pag nadumihan, pwedeng-pwede hugasan.

Mahihilo ka sa features. Yung flashlight, laki ng pakinabang ko sa sinehan tsaka pag brownout. Camera is ok since VGA naman (although sayang kasi mababa ang screen resolution). May mga features na wag mo na lang seryosohin, tulad ng thermometer tsaka sound meter na hindi naman ganun ka-accurate. Pero yung compass, pwede mong gamitin pang-tanda kung saan ka nag-park, hehehehe. Regarding the GPS shell, I think you're better off getting a separate GPS receiver na lang. All in all, astig to. Meron ngang mga baliw na nagpasabog ng 5140, pero gumagana pa rin.

Only problem is hindi ko pa mapa-activate yung WAP ko kasi yung tinginingining Globe na yan, ang sabi wala pa daw silang settings para sa 5140. Sana mabuksan na, kating-kati na kong mag-download ng games eh. Tsaka watch out for the two little nubs on the number 5 key. Medyo nabubura yung dark purple coating niya after some time, pero I've been assured na hindi naman kakalat yung wear sa buong keymat. Tsaka sana available na yung mga replacement shells.

Ano ba ang kalaban ng 5140 na Siemens or other brands?

I need a new tough phone, too.

Kalaban ng 5140 sa Siemens is the M65. Parehong matibay, with the M65 having a metal frame that provides reinforcement. Tsaka may lens cover din yung M65 para sa VGA camera. Problema lang, medyo bulky ang M65, with its "Darth Vader" looks.

Rule of thumb:

5140 - Series 40 interface, loaded with features; average polyphonic tones and screen resolution.

M65- excellent 65K-color screen resolution, superb polyphonic tones; lacks the bells and whistles of the 5140 (plus, Siemens software notorious for freezing up during use).
