    I am one of those fellas who wanted to buy an iPOD and a cell phone at the same time. i bought this phone instead at a great price and
    i am IMPRESSED. Its sound quality is mind boggling. The new Stereo widening option makes its sound better than W800. Further its external sound is so crystal clear and loud, it makes everyone in distance take notice. I repeat impressive phone. I wanted a W800, but it was expensive for me, but i also wanted a swivel phone.
    trust me. only for composing messages or make new entries u need to open the phone. rest all done with phone closed.
    As per the disappointment of not having a card slot, come on guys....256MB is ok and for this price definitely decent. the hone is very very fast.
    I feel cheated by NOKIA all these years.
    The best part about the phone is the music player which when used in the PHONE OFF,MUSIC PLAYER mode has amazing battery life. i must have used it for 18 hours over a period of 24 hours and was shocked to see that 70% battery life still remaining( it had consumed only 30% of battery). For music freaks who want a phone i STRONGLY recommend the W550i.

                  Hi, i bought w550i in Singapore. First time using SE. Not bad. Especially the quality of the sound and the volume of the sound. Good. I get a free gift of a Speaker Charger for this handphone. Well i can listening to radio or mp3 while charging. Very nice.

                        Muski,
                        Yes, i have to agree with you that the W550i is much better design than nokia 6270. No doubt. But look at the quality of the product. There are so many faulty and complain. Not only this model, SE product is well known for it's hang up and sending back to factory for repair. Yeah, i know all brand of phone has defect, but it seem that SE has more :-(

                                  hey guys 2 days b4 i bought this set.but i got a great shock when i click on bluetooth to turn it on, my phone hung up.there are two options one to turn on bluetooth and second to hide/show phone. if ur bluetooth is on then u can not change hide/show option and vice versa.this problem is happening with me till now.in such condition phone hungs up for atleast 3-4 minutes and then it switches on and off twice and at last it comes with the same unchanged option.
                                  i am so worried about this.as i feel that i have wasted my money.if any one really can fix this problem or has encountered the same problem then plz plz plz let me know. thats my humble request . thanx

                                    Hey guys, If u need lock in your W550i for files then try website: "waptech.net" for I-Lock. Download it in ur mobile as trial version & the original verson will only cost u $4.00(Just Four dollor). I had tried yesterday & found this I-lock very useful becoz W550i doesnt have any option for locking of files or folder. So now u can hide ur own private folders from others.

                                    Overall the phone is superb espeically the sound quality & battery life. Amazing frnds!!!!!

                                      360 degree?of course not! I always open it very carefully I think it is the factory fault...I used to have T630 and Nokia 6600 and I never had trouble with it
