The Siemens C65 is an entry-level camera phone that retails for under £100. The phone is compact, lightweight and very nicely styled. For the money you seem to get quite a lot of features - camera, 65k colour display, voice recorder, handsfree speaker, etc. However, look closer and you find that the phone is not as good as it seems. Starting with the display, on closer inspection we find that it's not a TFT screen, which means that it's hard to read outdoors. The digital camera is just CIF resolution - that's 0.1 megapixels, whereas most entry-level camera phones have VGA resolution nowadays (0.3 megapixels). The connectivity is infra-red only, with no cable option for transferring photos to a computer.
Having said all that, the good points might just outweigh the bad points, except that the reliability of the C65 is poor. Read the user reviews below for stories of how the C65 may freeze or switch itself off at random. It is possible that the latest firmware upgrades will fix these problems, but in an entry-level phone such problems should simply not be present, and it is not acceptable for Siemens to release a phone knowing that its software is buggy. The Siemens CX65 is a much better phone all round and not much more expensive.
