I got this phone a few months ago, but within a few weeks of buying it, the keys were getting cracks down the middle. It annoys me how i cant turn the volume down unless im watching a video or listening to music. The cameras ok but the zooms a bit rubbish. I love the shut down options/ profile options. Its better than just putting it on silent. Overall its a good phone, just not great.

I bought this phone not long after it was released for £100 from play. It has a lot of nice features and the interface is easy to use. The walkman feature works great, it has a training facility with pedometer and the colour of the lights around the side can be customised. My only issue was that the camera really suffers from not having a light or flash and as a result, it's only really good at taking pictures during the day or in good lighting conditions. I've noticed that most of the phones in the walkman range lack a camera light.

Overall, it is a good quality phone, I've had it for nearly 10 months now and it is still in perfect condition. I'd say £69.99 is a nice price for what you get.

Sure the phone is packed with decent features and the walkman built in is definitely a good one, but after about 10 months, the phone will literally fall apart in your hands. Everyone I know with this phone - myself included - has suffered from cracked keys, some buttons even falling out, the screen deciding it fancies a holiday and leaping out of the phone the first time you drop it and it being extremely tempermental when it comes to syncing it with the computer. Watch out long term buyers!

The phone is alright, the camera is decent and the battery life is alright provided you don't have the walkman application running all the time, but the phone as a whole is quite unreliable, I've owned this for about 8 months now and 6 of my keys have cracked, and every now and again, the screen either blacks or white's out. Sometimes it even moves completely so only half of the screen shows properly. I wouldn't recommend buying of these.

Ive had this phone for nearly a year, and im incredibly attacthed to it! Yes some of the buttons crack, but I barely notice, it doesnt actually affect the phone.
My favourite thing about this phone though, its so loud! I always have music playing on this as im to lazy to put in headphones, and its louder than any other phone ive ever heard.
Be careful with it though, if your to rough with it it will kill itself.
Amazing little phone, I payed twice the price and dont regret it, buy it now!

I have had this phone since christmas and i have to say it is the best phone ever!!!!!!! yes the buttons crack but..... its not the worst thing in the world! I have sent mine away for repair because the back button doesnt work and the screen has gone very dark and the colours look like spilt oil :S the lack of back button has been veryyyy annoying it has been like that since july but i sort of worked my way around it by constantly using the camera option and then shutting my phone. I cant wait to get it back as I am addicted to the step counter on it :D but buy it!!!!!!

The buttons break in half, it crashes and restarts allllllll the time, my phone has been kept very well and i hardly text and the buttons have came in half and its all ways crashing and switching off, i have had this problem with all sony erricsons.

i brought this phone when it first came out and it has been fast and reliable since then. it plays music loud and it accesses the internet fast too. i would definitely recommend it!

I work in a store where we can repair mobile phones, i've seen so many of these handsets come back in with either cracked buttons or faulty screens, in a few cases the slider had even started to lock up. Not owned one personally but my mate has and said the GUI is horrible I suggest staying away from this mobile phone or your asking for trouble; a real letdown by Sony Ericsson.

I got this phone 3 months ago I fell in love with this phone but apparently there was a recall as there was a dodge batch, think I got 1. 1 month after I got it the buttons broke the battery went the screen went all funny I didn't know who was callin me. When the phone worked I was a great wee phone I will be replacing it with the same phone.
