Design Features
Usabilityits sleek, stylish, easy to use, memory stick is essential though
I really love this phone, its sleek, stylish, easy to use and has some nice features. I do have one problem with this phone though and that is the lack of built in memory coupled with the fact that you don't get a memory stick with it as you do with other Sony Ericcson models. Overall though easily deserves 4 out of 5
Overall Design Features Usabilitylight but not flimsy, and costs a reasonable price
The sole reason I got this phone was because it was purple, but I must admit I was impressed, its easy to use, has all the features you would expect, is light but not flimsy, and costs a reasonable price.
It also has a good battery life and you can put a memory card in for added tunes. There is only one problem as far as Im concerned, and thats the position of the on/off button, I find it really difficult to switch it off and on, apart from that I cant fault it.
Overall Design Features
Usabilitydoes not have much internal memory
Has both a reasonable camera and MP3, although it can take a few attempts to download files or that could just be me, overall its quite good.
Good screen themes and many more available, the changing ones are good. Definately needs a memory card to store music and photos, as it does not have much internal memory.

Design Features UsabilityShame the keypad isnt more robust
My buttons keep breaking on this phone, I had to send it back and the keypad needed to be replaced. I went to collect it from the store in Romford yesterday.
At the moment it all seems to be working well again, the actual phone is excellent its just a shame the buttons do not work as good as they should.
Overall Design Features UsabilityLoads of features and capabilities, the sliding action feels lovely
I love the feel of this phone and the different background colour lights you can choose. My only problem is that I'm not all that experienced with mobile phones and this one has so much you can do on it (which is brilliant!) but I don't know how to.
One day I'll get around to learning how to download music onto it and use it as an MP3 player. One of the reasons I got it was we have bluetooth connection in our car and my old phone (a Nokia 8210....does anyone remember those?!) didn't.
Good all round phone in a nice handy small size with loads of features and capabilities, the sliding action feels lovely.
Overall
Design Features UsabilityVery beautiful and slim, but the build quality is awful
Well I was enticed by the looks of this phone, it certainly is very beautiful and slim, but the build quality is awful, it is not a Walkman phone although it looks very similar to the Walkman slider.
The main problem with the phone is the keypad, avoid buying this phone as the pad will crack! Sony Ericcson have admitted there is a fault with the glue that is used to stick the keys on so I'm warning you all now. Sadly, after 3 weeks I am returning mine for a refund. The phones slider is broken and makes a suspicious squeaking noise when slided. Overall not a very good model from Sony in my opinion.
Overall Design Features UsabilityI am extremely happy with it
Brilliant mobile phone, I find it very easy to use and very trendy. Camera is brilliant and overall I am extremely happy with it. It is very fast to download different ringtones or pictures etc. It is the perfect size to fit in my pocket, it has a great clear reception.
Overall Design Features UsabilityMenu can be a bit confusing
A very good phone, maybe not best for first time users as the layout of the menu can be a bit confusing but its lightweight. Also it comes in a selection of colours which is good as some phones only come in black/silver and that is a bit boring!
