    This phone is AWFULL!!!
    after a week out of the box the backlight on the screen broke
    and the keypad has cracked!!!!!!!
    this phone is a BIG NO NO!!
    and is a nightmare to text on i might add
    .
    May look good, but there are big issues with this phone that sony ericsson may wanna fix!

      YAY! the cracked key problem is gone on current models!. a guy said that the current "batch" the keys are made of hard rubber and will not crack.

      That is the news and new models shouldn't crack.

        Does anyone know why it doesnt say how many messages you have total in your inbox, or how you know when its full? I got some texts this morning and now theyre not in my inbox?

            well dude it depends in how you use your mobile phone specially this one bec. the keypad of this phone is made out of plastic and if you seldomly press the button too hard it gets cracks!!! but this phone is great...

                does this phone really support AAC music files? bcoz when I receive a music file in AAC format via blutooth.. it goes to directly to 'Other' folder.. it seems that it dont recognize it as a music file.. it becomes an unknown file format.. please help..

                                  I have this phone for about 5 months now and it is very disappointing. About 3 months into having this phone, I noticed there were little teeny tiny crack lines on the key pad!! The phone looks great and the graphics are fun, but this is not a practical phone!

                                        what happened to sony ericsson?? i used nokia, samsung, motorola phones before they were all gr8, so this time i decided to get a SE phone for a change and saw d s500, thought it would be good too but NO!!!!! honestly, this phone looks good but it's got bad qualitys. the speaker stops working and it's really slow, when you slide it up, it takes 2 seconds to respond. my keepad has not cracked yet but is expecting to(like everyone said). never get a SE phone again!!
