Customer Reviews

absolute rubbish!!!
Do not buy this phone. It looks great, with cool lighting down side, but very unreliable, on my 2rd one in a month and now that has had to go off to repair, due to a cracked keypad, even with very little use it would seem fragile, apparently it is a known fault or so i was told in shop , the assistan , wasn't surprised when i said what was wrong, after my K800 giving up ghost just after a year, finding sony arent as good as they used to be, stay clear of this fone and any other colour of this version,

Garbage - stay well clear!
Have always been a fan of Sony Ericsson and am bitterly disappointed with this phone. I've had it repaired 3 times now and it still sufferes from the same fault. The buttons keep cracking which is a known fault and I can't understand why they are still sold. Not only do the buttons crack after a short while they also don't respond when pressed and the phone doesn't always lock when you slide it down which is really annoying.
If thinking of buying one - DON'T!!!!

Good
This phone is a phone, it doesn't have 3g, which, having had a Nokia SmartPhone for the last few years, is brilliant. It doesn't always try to connect even if you've told it not to, it doesn't crash as it does not try to carry out too many things with not enough memory. It's a phone with limited features, which make it a good phone. Also... look at it! As far as phones go, it looks pretty damn good
