      I got this phone for christmas so i've had it for a few days and I like the fitness function and the design but the camera is about the only thing thats bad about.Its very good and I would give it 10 stars for most things,very good.I would definitely reccomend it.

              It is a great phone as it have a nice design (slider),great display,radio, 2mpx camera with cool effects(negative,panorama) bluetooth,5 menu themes,voice control,good organizer (in comparison to e.g. motorola) fitness fuctions,music player with songs recognition,'mega bass' and shake control(shame that some guys who own the phone don't now how it works!) and also- as many as 4 colours to choose from. I don't get it why some people dislike it only because of cracking keypad (I've heard it was a problem only on the beggining of production and now is fixed)

                I bought this phone about a month ago. Apart from good sound quality and looks the phone lacks in all other departments. Battery back up is very lousy, camera has a zoom only in the VGA mode, net browser in also not upto the mark. Overall the product promises a lot and delievers very less in terms of user satisfaction

                  I have had Sony Ericsson's for the past 3 years and this one for the past 6 mths, it has been great in all aspects. These phones are quite enjoyable with the ear phones and the bluetooth.

                    My dad just got one of these yesterday, for free from his cell phone company, and it just blew me away. Both the screen resolution and the image quality in the LCD screen are great. You can play your songs in the backgroud while you're doing other stuff, which is awesome (unlike the Samsung E230L that I myself own).

                    The earplugs that come with it are also great, sound quality is excellent, and one good thing about them is that they already have a built-in adaptor for P2 (the average for most earplugs in sound devices, at least here in Brazil), so if you happen to dislike the earplugs that came with it, you can get your own and use them anyway. Also, the good thing about the P2 adaptor is that it's above the microphone you use when you wanna talk handsfree, so the functionality of the microphone remains intact, even when you're using some other earplugs.

                    It's really easy to install Java apps and games in this phone, which is a major plus (again, unlike the Samsung E230L). One of the games that comes with it is The Sims 2 mobile (at least in the Brazilian black version), so if you're an aficcionado, you can knock yourself out :)

                    The menus seem like they would be really easy to flash, if you're into fully customizing your cellphone, that's good.

                    It also has some fitness functions, but, honestly, I don't care much about them, 'cause I really don't think I'd be doing a whole lot of exercise with it in case I had one.

                    And I guess that's it, since my dad got it for free, I guess if I had to give this mobile a mark anywhere between 1 and 10, I'd probably give it a 15!

                      phone is quite costly. and has no special features as compared with other phones.
                      It's price should be less than 10k - otherwise customer has a lot other options.

                        I got this phone for christmas and had problems with the SIM card. It took me a while to realise that the SIM card had to be pushed in until it clicked, which was literally impossible to do with fingers, so I ended up using pen to push the SIM in. Apart from that slight problem I'm really happy with the phone. The slide is smooth yet secure. The screen is brilliant, and the buttons work perfectly for me. I was amazed when I read the comments about the buttons breaking ect. You must be very heavy-handed to break these, as I find them fine.
                        The shake control feature, although cool, is quite useless. As you have to press the walkman button down as you shake, you may aswell just press the '>>'.

                        Overall, I love the design and look of the phone, and I think it is brilliant. A great bargain aswell!

                            This mob is available in black also.This mobile doesnt have flash in it and the picture quality is obiviously not so good when taken without adequate lighting.But this phone is good other than these minuite problems.

                                Hi guys, I've read a few comments about this phone. Just wondering where the Silver one OR Black one is available cuz i've only seen the pink, white and grey one in the shops. Also, what is the photo resolution like when pictures are taken in the dark? this camera doesnt have a flash does it (doesn't really bother me)
