hahahaha i think the keypad cracking this only happens if u get ur phone for a certain country
well i hav had this phone since September and none of my keypad have cracked and i like text alot that all i basically use on my phone is the text and i see no problem with the phone i hav also had firend who hav this phone too and none of there key pad cracks
so i guess its just depends on where they make the phone from and where they ship the new good ones too like my phone is made in asia cuz all the language that are on it is like english, malaysian, chinese, filpino and vietnamese
well btw im from canada and i got my phone from a asian imported phone store

Fist of all, yes Nic,it does have lights at the side like the w580. Now, im practically dreaming about having this fone, but hearing about cracking keypads are making me change my mind. In barbados, this fone is like one of the best on market with an affordable price. Please update me on SE fixing their "keypad massacre" problem

finally back for a FINAL update! STAY AWAY FROM THIS PHONE!!! its great at first. but ive had mine for 6 months now, all the keys finally cracked. it doesnt matter what color they are (i got the spring yellow), they WILL crack. also the phone is slower than it used to be and i have 12mb memory on my phone still cuz i store everything on a M2 stick. the space/# key is messed up. i have to push it 4-5 times for it to work and i cant hold it to turn silent mode on/off anymore. everytime i try to it just dials ######## until i let go.
i want to sell this thing and get a new phonoe

Great phone. It' simple, easy to use, light weight. BUT... I got one in November 2007 and the 1, 4 and 7 keys cracked just recently. Didn't really bother me much but. Hard to even notice that they were cracked. But now my phone is completely dead. I sent a message, put it in my pocket, 30 minutes later went to check my phone and it was off. Tried taking the battery out etc etc, still wont turn on but. Unfortunatly I bought the phone off EBay from Hong Kong, so im not sure about warranty.

I got my s500i for christmas with 1yr warranty with Bmobile and in 3weeks 3 keys cracked, I really love this phone and wen i took it bac to Bmobile the CSR told me warranty is for manufactor purpose only and she voided my warranty "News Flash It's Ah Manufactor Problem" I work in ah bmobile store so i can get my phone change, but wat about normal customers? Come on Sony Ericsson Phones manufacturers you'll can do better dan dat considering its ah multy billionair company make ah stronger keypad

It's a good phone but I really don't think the stand by battery life is 370 hours (15 days) as it says on the page. My phone dies on me after a day. It's a great phone, and no it's not a woman's phone.

Sony admitted that there are problems with the keypads. Just return to youre dealer and send it off to repair. In Holland they make it under gurantee, and till now the phones I sende for repair (Im a dealer) came back with repaired keypads and so far no one came back again cause they broke again.
Further I think its a nice (but women) phone. Nice features, nice design, nice camera.
Overall (not thinking about breaking keypads) a nice and good phone!
