Introduction
The Philips 659, announced in the second quarter of 2004, is a classic mobile phone that appeals to users looking for basic functionality in a compact form. As a discontinued model, it serves as a nostalgic look back at the evolution of mobile technology. Designed for GSM 2G networks, it covers GSM 900 and 1800 bands and features GPRS Class 10 capabilities. This phone bypasses the enhancements seen in more advanced devices, like EDGE, focusing on essential connectivity and communication features.
