Philips handsets reborn in Europe with Philips 192, we’re underwhelmed

Philips handsets have melted away in Europe in recent years and while the Chinese owners of the brand — with market rights until 2011 — have carried on with Xenium in Asia, Euro types have seen nothing. All that’s changing with the release of the Philips 192, a completely lackluster dual-band GSM effort with a 65k color display, 10-day standby life, and an expected retail price of €40 — roughly $60 — when it lands in Portugal. Way to go Philips, nothing like blowing the barn doors off with mad tech to get people excited.
