I bought this phone 6 months back. Its design and software Interface is the best. Camera is average with no flash,very good during daytime, but bad under dull light. But its still better than Nokia's 1.3MP cameras. Battery life is unbelievable. the only problem is that memory card is costly.

Just after i bought this phone i went camping and a big flood came over the tent, the phone was underwater and mud for 2 hrs, i dried it for 3-4 days and then it worked perfectly, without any problem...and the metal case can protect it more than a plastic case so i think its a great phone!

I bought this phone about a year ago and its still going great.
Battery life is exceptional. I usually have to charge it every 3 - 5 days (i have it on 24 hours a day).
I find the sound great - its not quite (like some reviews have mentioned). The two little silver buttons on the side make the volume go up or down - when its full its very loud. Mp3 quality is great - of course this all depends on the quality of the acutal mp3 file. The radio reception is great. You do need to plug in the hand's free (it acts as the arial) but you can put it on speaker. It is very easy to go through stations.
Camera is good. Its only a 1mp - but you cant expect more than that for the cost of this phone. You can dress up the photos with fancy frames (choose a frame, a cartoon and take a picture of a person's head to go in the space!) it makes hilarious results! :)
This phone is definatly worth the money. I only paid $199, and i've seen it for under $150 now!.

I am not really sure of the inbox capacity. only the saved messages folder has a low limit. I remember having more than 50 sms in the inbox. And Rick ofcourse it does play AAC files.

what can I say about my mobilephone well it is finished in a combination of premium brushed metal and high gloss material, the Z550i is a classy partner for work and leisure with universal appeal. The 1.3 Megapixel camera has 4x digital zoom and takes great snap shots and video for capturing those unpredictable moments. These can be viewed on a crisp, bright color display. With 20MB of onboard memory expandable to 1GB, it's simple to store and share a large collection of pictures using MMS, Bluetooth™ or e-mail. The Z550 has an exclusive, understated feel that's a tribute to our iconic phone the T610, and features a 1.3 Megapixel camera, unusual for a phone in this sector,' said Husni El-Assi, General Manager of Sony Ericsson, Middle East and North Africa. 'In all, the Z550i is a phone that breathes quality and value. Finding shots once you've stored them is childs play with the new thumbnail gallery feature. This allows you to search your shots both visually and according to the date they were taken with multiple thumbnail images being shown on the 262k sharp colour screen. The Z550i connects easily to a PC for fast transfer of multimedia files and synchronisation with your phone book and calendar. The phone also has full HTML internet browsing and optional Bluetooth™ headset and car-handsfree kit for wireless freedom on the move. The Sony Ericsson Z550i is a GPRS clamshell camera phone available in Sterling Black or Pearl Copper.

i have had this phone for about 10 months now. pros-
easy to hold.
easy to use the keypad.
good camera quality during daytime.
never had call drops.
it hanged only about 8 times. (i use 1 gb mem card. my bro's nokia 6630 would hang whenever it wishes).
fm sound quality is great.
overall stability and value for the money.
cons
gotta forget about camera at night time (unless the light is damn bright)
poor sound output thru external speakers.
(i sure would miss calls. but when i use kdplayer java application sound output beats w810)
only operamini could help you on browsing the internet.
i miss edge as i use gprs heavily.
cant rely on the pc suite phone mode. i am using bluetooth software for pc connection, internet.
thats all i can think as of now.
final words- i never regretted my decision of getting this phone.
if you are a person who wants the maximum features in this price range and dont care about high quality in any one feature, get the phone.
p.s. if you have any issues with the pc suite try uninstalling completely and then reinstalling. good luck.

Well I had this phone for a half a week. I have to say I was a bit disapointed when I first saw it and noticed how light it was but I was very wrong.
It has tons of features for it. I have suncom so I just had to insert sim card and I was using it right way.
Pros-
-SUPER LONG video time like over 10 minutes on just the phone's memory alone, not including a Micro M2 Cart
-Great smooth Games, can can play 3D ones
-mimimize radio or MP3 music player
-great quality outdoor photos
-good graphics for a phone
-great make you own ringtone system
-easy controls
-Tons of downloadable online content like themes and games
Cons-(Not too bad though)
-you have to buy the expensive $20 USB cord with Z300a if you don't have a WiFi Router to use bluetooth to connect to your PC
-Have to buy a micro M2 cart
-Indoor Photos can be very poor quality if Lighting is not super bright. I tested and found out usually the bathroom light is bright enough to take high quality pictures indoors.
Other than that I find this an awesome phone even of I can't use all the features yet. I will post more when I acquire a Mirco M2 cart and a USB cable.

Tips plus downloadlable games themes, software, etc. for your Sony Ericsson Z550i;
1.) Avoid dropping your mobile phone even once or twice bec. this causes the occurrence
of the malfunction of your mobile phone including the keypads, scratches, etc. on your mobile phone.
2.) your battery will last long if you will not put the brightness of your mobile phone in 90-100%.
3.) When you seem that your mobile phone has a problem bring your mobile phone to the place where you bought your mobile phone and have it fixed immediately and bring your "1 year warranty card" so that you will not pay for the bills for the repair of your mobile phone.
4.) About the sound's well I can say it is loud enough when you wear your earphones so I recommend for all those who are using Sony Ericsson Z550i when listening to your music wear your earphone so that you could hear enough the sound of your mobile phone.
5.) I recommend also that you must clean your mobile phone twice a weak to avoid scratches, damages, dirt on the body of your mobile phone specially the upper body part of your Sony Ericsson Z550i mobile phone and go to google.com and type "Sony ericsson Z550i games" there you can download
games,themes,software,etc.
