      @kenzie
      This phone can play videos in 3gp format. This is the format used by the camera when you record videos. Other supported format (if i wasn't wrong) is aac mpeg4.

        im going to buy a new fone coming wednesday. I havent made up my mind yet if im going to buy this fone or a diff. model.

        If this fone can play videos, it would be a plus. Can anyone help me in confirming the video formats that this fone can recognize??
        Dont want to commit a mistake in choosing a new fone so please help...

          I purchased this cell on the 1st of Jan2006 after going through many cells for about six months under the 15,000Rs(300$-350$)range , the best feature and reasonably priced(unlike nokia) phone one could ever purchase . Until 22nd Jan2006 it seems the opposite the phone just dosent start only the sony ericsson logo is shown even after removing the battery , the sim nothing seems to be working , will visit the service center tommorow , So think twice before purchasing this Cell .

            Umm... I am sorry, ricky, I never had a problem myself so I never complained about anything, which is why I don't know what you should be doing next. However, if you eMail me the contents of the eMail that you recieved, I am sure I can guide you. My eMail address is attached with this post.

                        i was very happy when i bought this fone. few days later when i started to put some mp3s and pics on it i was sad because some of the files inside were automatically deleted and i don't know why. this fone is very nice and worth the price but since that day, i'm not that happy anymore with it. and when i power on this fone there's a color grey on the screen and it seems weird. oh i'm so sad today, the pic there was so nice but then it was erased. i didnt pressed anything. i hope it will never happen again. this fone is excellent if it wasn't like that.

                          can this phone browse the internet?
                          + is this phone's rotational design pleasing?
                          and do you reckon it's too fat?

                                  I have a collection of games and some tricks for all Sony Ericsson users. To all interested in W550i… It has great music reproduction and file management. Graphical interface is fast. Build quality is outstanding considering its swivel construction. Full screen viewing for videos and photos is also a plus! Camera though isn’t excellent under poorly lighted conditions. Battery is excellent. It lasts for two days on: 1 hour of games, 3 hours of music, and about 2 hours on other functions each day. I have installed dictionaries, texttwist, phoneybible, and over a hundred games. I also use it to store my course outlines for my classes. Interested? You may e-mail me at badjstar@yahoo.com.

                                      maybe the store cheated on you, instead of giving you original battery, they switched it with an A-class one... If you want to check, go to any valid sony ericsson retailer and inquire or ask about your battery
