I'm really interested in this phone. I like the functions & the appearance, but I'm really bothered by the limited memory space. Is that a major problem?? Should i jus ignore this prob & get the phone? Pls advise.

              No you can't expand the memory. it's fixed with 256MB. But still you can store around 60mp3's.. I think that is sufficient enough if you always change the song.

                        I needed a new phone, and was going to get either Razr V3 Pink, or the W550i. I was worried about buying this phone after reading reviews about how fat the phone is, and i love tiny ones like the Panasonic G51. But i got it, and to my surprise, its not much bigger than my G51! Its really easy to use, the sound is great, fits nicely into your hand, and has enough memory to keep me entertained. This is a really good phone for people who want a phone with a decent camera, MP3's and other features along with good looks.

                                        Try to bring your phone to Sony Ericsson center and tell your problem. Your battery life is absolutely abnormal.

                                        I listen mp3s about 2 hours, use it for 3-4 hours of messaging (yes i'm a heavy text messenger, and to me the keypad is OK.), make about 30 minutes calls each day, and and the phone can still make around 2-2,5 days.
