The Siemens S55 was one of the first true colour phones, by having a 256 colour screen. Its contemporary, at its release in late 2002, was the Ericsson T68, with similar comprehensive features, such as Bluetooth and infrared.

It was a high end business and leisure phone at the time, eventually becoming superseded by phones with improved screen clarity, increased colours and pixels, such as 4096, then 65K screens.

At its release it had features previously unknown to any mobile phone of its size, including:

  • Internet surfing.
  • Games in color.
  • MP3 player.
  • Audio recording.
  • Advanced calendar.
