I have a Sony Erickson K510i. The joystick started acting up after 6 months use and quit altogether in 9 months.
This is my first Sony Erickson; really disappointing to have this problem with a name brand product.
This is the 3rd major problem I have had with a Sony product.

I've had this phone for 7 months, and the joystick has died. i'm not impressed as this is the second ericcson phone i've had that has had this problem in less than two years and i'm going to replace it tomorrow morning. i can't send or recieve messages, make calls, nothing that involves a menu - it's useless. i won't be buying an ericcson again.

k510i is a nice phone i've ever had, but it has low memory, there's no radio, but the phone have good camera 1.3mp, but it almost the same in k310i, lack of features, i prefer k700i, because lots of features, and animated themes, and the quality of pictures, is all the same with k510i, because k700i, has a 1mega pixel.. the camera of k700i is sharp and clear, i compare this two phone, but k700i is excellent phone..

Hope you guys can help. My k510 camera's great. The only problem is(besides having no memory card), it can't handle white color well, it becomes greenish. The pictures are great on good, adequate light, but too much light, anything white becomes glowing green. Can firmware upgrade/update fix this?

I have the phone for more than a year. The keypad's backlighting is very good. In direct sunlight the display is not very visible (but most of the phones have this problem). I think the display colors are very good, and you can use as a wallpaper any photo, at any size/resolution, it will fix perfect on the screen. And the camera is the best 1,3Mp phone camera. Music player is good, MP3s sounds well and quite loud on the speaker. I had no joystick problems.

I've had this phone for a long time now, Sony Ericcson K510i that is.
I seemed to have dropped it in some water a coouple of months ago, i opened the phone apart overnight and left it to dry until the next morning, i put my sim card in the next day and it worked perfectly. A couple of weeks later it started giving me some problems, now it refuses to even switch on, it keeps telling me i have a USB connected when in fact i do not!...and as you know when you have a USB connected no functions will work, so i do not know how to fix this! HELP!!..
THANKS!

None is fixed after latest firmware upgrade.

complete review of a great and unexpensive phone.
i like its mic sensibility which is great if you need to use its voice recorder.
A few points I do not like:
* no flight mode. an incoming call will stop voice recording.
* counter in pictures & recordings. When I move those items to my PC the counter allways resets to 0. I need to create a new folder every time.
* should search contacts by fist and last name at the same time.
* no shorcuts in main buttons. (I can live with this)
maybe some are fixed in new firmware releases. I have r4ch003.

K510 is a upper middle class phone. No mem card? Don't worry. I have 19 apps, 13 games, 29 sound files (MP3,MIDI,AMR), and many pictures and I have 7.5 MB free! Could you belive? The camera quality is great, the music player is good, and no radio is no problem. There are pocket radios with lower prices and easier use. No flash? SE has a portable flash. I think it's one of the best phones ever released.

I just picked up this phone last week and so far I'm very impressed! According to the review, the backlit keypad was barely visible in dark rooms, but mine (K510i) has a green-backlit keypad. Very visible in dark environments.
Standby battery time varies greatly (if you use camera, bluetooth and other high-drain functions) it will be about 2-3 days. With normal use (SMS, calendar, a few minutes of calls per day) it lasts me about 5-6 days. No complaints there.
Also, for those who asked, MP3's CAN be used as SMS alerts. I can confirm this.
All in all, I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase of the K510i. Recommended.
