The Siemens S55 was a mobile phone which was introduced by Siemens in late 2002. At the time it was a high end phone and one of the first colour phones by Siemens, with a 256 colour screen, Bluetooth and infrared, and a competitor to the Ericsson T68.
It was superseded by phones with screens with more colours and pixels, such as 4096, then 65K colour screens.
