i got this phone on july '08 , within 10 days the display started showing some lines ,so i gave it for service and got it repaired. then in jus 6 months again the same problem . my display was terribly bad , got the lines on my display covering the whole screen.got it repaired again as it was under the warranty period. now after another 6 months , same display problem. i cant jus keep on going for a service for this mobile. so getting rid of this one. And still more , the keypads broke, head set and the power supply cord junction is not proper, i need to adjust everytime to get in the right track.
it has a good camera and a good music speakers .

    HI to all this phone is great at first but after a while the keypad just suddenly cracked and after a while the side colors(the light that blinks if you receive a call or an sms) just fell apart now the colors are split in two so now I'm planning to buy an w508 phone that's much cooler much durable but if you compare the price of the two you just need to add a little pesos so if I were you I will just buy a w508 phone

      from my experience after having the phone for 1 month after purchase it the battery stated to die easily after 15 mins of talk time..i have made reports about the battery and was granted a new battery; however the problem still persists, so i guess its the fone itself giving problems

      Its a nice phone otherwise

          Kay, if you're a texting person, and you use your phone a LOT. don't get this phone. it falls apart pretty easily, from experience. I had it for less than a year, and my speaker broke, my keys fell off and cracked, and well, I'm a heavy texter, so I'm not surprised.
          If you don't use your phone too much, and you want a nice looking phone -- get it. (: simple as thatt.

          to get or not to get?
          bye loves.

            I bought this phone in Apr 2008 and had to have the buttons replaced under warranty in Mar this year. Other than that I`ve had no problems whatsoever.The battery life is fine and the casing has held together ok. I`m sorry other folks have had so many problems. I keep looking at the W595 but my S500i is still like new. I`d recommend it.

              It's a very attractive phone but it's not durable. I've had it less than a year and it fell apart completely. Cracked keypad twice, backlight lost, phone memory wouldn't fit, kept on flickering on and off, the front cover broke and the entire front bit of the phone broke away after I dropped it. In the end the screen completely went and I had to send it in for repairs twice. I gave up and am really angry because I spent over £150 on it thinking it was good after the reviews. But looks can be deceptive. I'd seriosuly think about it before you buy...

                  I've had this phone for over a year and I have no complaints so far... it works perfectly even after dropping it several times!
                  Overall it is really good, doesn't lack anything!

                                s5oo is a well looking phone but i prefer mostly the walkman series the phone is ok works quite good but it has many weak features just another commercial one from sony mostly reccomended for young girls.

                                      s500 aesthetically its good, however it holds some major issues with the key pad (cracks easily).
                                      SMS a little delayed when typing, recieving and making calls has a few problems (call drops out easily or can't hear anything over the phone sometimes).
                                      Camera not the best, music is pretty good though.
