Well it was about time for a vendor to produce a phone that is as stylish as this one and it does not have an expensive camera but comes with bluetooth/infrared/USB. Definately the best buy I ever did on a mobile phone.

    Battery life of the Z520i is terrible. I bought the phone 3 days ago, and I had to charged it everyday!!! It last only 1.5days maxs. At 9.00am the battery level was at 90%, by noon 60%, by dinner time only 45%. By 9pm, all drained out. I was using the phone for gaming, video & photo capture, playing the media player functions, and of course, talking with friends.

    I guess the battery will drain out faster if I were using bluetooth. Anyway, I think the actual talk time is only 2.5hrs. Nice phone but lousy battery. SE should have throw in the save battery mode, that most phone has. Really sad,

      does the battery life really last for 9 hours?
      it seems like the longest out of all phones.
      what is the main diff between the 520i and 520a..
      i know one is international, one is america...
      but is there any diff in reception? menu? operation?

                  I love this phone, but ... does anybody know how well it performs concerning signal reception?
                  I have had several phones and noticed that they can strongly differ in the ability to receive signal.
                  Where I live; signal is poor, VERY poor. Most phones do not even work in my house, I have to go outside (isn't that fun in the winter?), a very few phones get 1 bar in the house,... so the question is: how well does this one perform?

                      Put any Nokia clamshell phone side to side and u will think that this is a killer phone with its design and price!

                          Well, I love this phone! and im a man, not woman! i would say its an mans phone too.. lol. it seems very good.
                          Now, i must say if you want to listen to music-> get a mp3-player.. helloo?
                          I have an z600 now, and it has like what, 2-3mb onboard!! still i could have several pictures and games++
                          So what, the Z520 phone only has like 16mb onboard. You can have several 100`s pictures and ringtones on this phone, and some mp3`s a webpage said!
                          I have ordered the z520 now, and will probably recive it in a week.. Im sooo happy now:D Can`t wait!!;p

                            This phone looks nice and it's a quadband!! One thing is missing - FM radio!Where is it?Did it go to w600?:) You can buy it on ebay for like $230. I had SE phone before, and i loved it.

                              Hi this is Manoj Pandey from Surat Gujarat.
                              this Model could kill brands like Samsung and L.G who are focussing more on Clampshell phones. Wake Up Sony,this is the right Time Just give a phone with Mamory Card and better Camara Resulution with this Price You will be No.1.

                                Does this mobile have a flash because I read a review about this phone at www.mobile-review.com and they said that this phone has a flash.

                                  I would've immediately bought this phone,
                                  had it contained 2 mpix cam, msduo slot
                                  and a higher resolution main display.
                                  (That hinge is useless also)
                                  The phone is a lot smaller than it
                                  appears to be photos. Very nice keypad
                                  and white, glossy finish.
                                  The blue backlight looks good too,
                                  there's some kind of effect in that
                                  making the handset look transparent.
                                  Again, I'm very impressed by the keypad.

                                    Phones a waste of time you have to keep up with the latest trends. If it had memory slot card would have been the bomb of a phone wake up sony. Stick with your walkmans

                                      This is a phone. The fact that it only has 16MB of memory and no FM radio is irrelevant. Get an iPod.

                                        This phone seems no good, no value for money, it seems that the LG C3400 is a good bargain with good looks and feel, i think sony needs to improve in the clampshell
