excellent slimline mobile phone with a host of great features

An excellent slimline mobile phone with a host of great features, including a 3.2 megapixel camera, quad band, Walkman, and radio. The only slight fault seems to be the battery life which although quoted at around 12 days actually lasts about 1 week. A great phone nevertheless.

6 months and this phone has never let me down

This phone is so good because I have had it for 6 months and this phone has never let me down, its even been dropped on the floor, trusty phone would recommended it.

The best thing is the radio and the camera a 3.2 megapixel camera and a radio if your bored of listening to your playlist.

I love the look of it however the battery life is terrible

I have had my phone a couple of months now, I love the look of it however the battery life is terrible, I am on my second battery but it is no better, I have to charge it every 2 days and I am hardly using it at all which is a bit annoying, apart from that I love it.

Very good model especially for music, battery could be better

Great phone, modern and upto date, nice camera as well and clear sound, very good model especially for music. Has a radio and the keys small but very easy to use and type quick texts.

The only bad thing about it is the battery life which didn't quite fit what was written on the manufacturer's description, I charged it for 24 hours afer buying it but still, my battery goes down on the end of the 2nd day, even if I don't listen to music on it or use that much. Apart from that, great phone!

Great little phone with a built in Sony Walkman

I really like this phone, small but perfectly designed. The features are really easy to use. The only problem I am finding is that the battery power is not as good as previous models. I find I am having to charge it fully every night. Other than that a great little phone with a built in Sony Walkman

Paintwork on the black version is very bad quality and wears off

For the most part this a good phone, it is a good size, strong features, neat design, good sound quality but there are a couple of problems.

The paintwork on the black version is very bad quality and wears off within a few weeks of purchase showing a gold colour, within three weeks of use my phone looked like it was two years old... so much so that I returned it suggesting that there was a fault.

Sony Ericsson said that trained engineers investigated and concluded there were no manufacturers problems... which is a cause of concern as it demonstrates poor manufacturing quality, so to avoid this problem, don't buy the black version!

One other irritating issue is the Walkman navigation, its not good if you have alot of songs (I have just over 1,000) - it is slow and irratic.
