Amazon.com Product Description
Building on the massive success of the T610, Sony Ericsson hits the street with a a new handset that ups the ante in all areas. With a sleek and sexy design, and a greater emphasis on camera functions, the K700i is everything folks expect from a Sony Ericsson phone. It's also got a bigger and brighter screen, 40 MB of memory, video recording capabilities, an FM radio and MP3 player, and a VGA camera with flash. T610 owners rejoice: your next phone has arrived.
Design
The K700i sticks with tried and true candybar styling that makes many Sony Ericsson phones so distinctive. In many ways, the phone more resembles a digital camera, with a large 176 x 220 display on one side and a pronounced camera system on the other. The camera unit features VGA (640 x 480) resolution, as well as an LED flash and a self-portrait mirror. Meanwhile, a five-way directional button on the front of the device controls most of the phone's menus and features. In addition to USB and Bluetooth connectivity, the K700i also has an infrared receiver for data synchronization.

Calling Features
The K700i's phone book can hold up to 510 contacts with multiple entries per contact, while a call list remembers your most recent missed, received and dialed calls. The phone's voice activated dialing makes calling contacts as easy as saying their names, while the built-in speakerphone makes it a cinch to talk without having the phone to your ear. Polyphonic ringtones are included and there's even a bundled application that lets you mix your own ringtones with up to 16 tracks. Picture caller ID lets you assign a photo to specific callers. Similarly, a ringer ID lets you assign ringtones to callers. For those times you want to keep things discreet, there's a vibrate ringer mode.
Because the K700i is Bluetooth-enabled, you can use a variety of headsets and handsfree kits for total wireless freedom when you're on the go.
Messaging, Internet and Tools
The K700i is designed to be much more than just a phone. Support is built in for sending and receiving pictures, text, graphics, sound and video via SMS or MMS messages. When used in combination with the phone's built-in still and video camera, MMS opens up a whole new world of messaging possibilities (carrier messaging charges may apply). Instant messaging is also supported and the phone ships with a built-in email client with support for POP3 and IMAP4 protocols. There's also a built-in Web browser for downloads and mobile Web browsing, plus you can use Sony Ericsson's "QuickShare" feature to quickly send your photos, videos and other media to your contacts, as well as other devices. Meanwhile, T9 text entry, a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit-- a plus for mobile email and text messaging users.
Getting on the Internet is easy with the K700i, as it supports the GPRS data protocol. When used with a carrier data plan and the phone's Bluetooth or USB data capability, the phone can be used as a wireless modem for laptops and PDAs.
A number of handy software tools are bundled with the K700i, including a voice memo recorder, a calculator, a calendar and an alarm clock. Use the phone's Bluetooth capability to set up a wireless link with a Bluetooth accessory or connect to a computer or hand-held device to exchange and synchronize data. The phone also supports the SyncML PC synchronization standard. This means the phone can be used with the included Sony Ericsson Sync Station software, which lets you synchronize your Microsoft Outlook calendar, contacts, notes and tasks with your K700i.
Imaging and Entertainment
The K700i has plenty of fun built-in. As mentioned, the phone sports a VGA camera and flash. The camera also supports video capture, and fortunately, you can capture as much video as you like, as long as there is available memory. If you like to hear tunes on the go, you can use the K700i as a portable MP3 player. Load up your tunes and enjoy them whereever you roam with a stereo headset (not included). Or, tune in to your favorite stations with the phone's embedded FM tuner. Forty megabytes of built-in memory gives you plenty of room for pictures, videos and music.
The K700i is a powerful gaming companion, too. The phone comes preloaded with several games and more are downloadable from both Sony Ericsson and other online mobile game providers. Enjoy enhanced 3D games with the K700i's robust Java support.
Vital Statistics
The Sony Ericsson K700i weighs 3.28 ounces and measures 3.90 x 1.83 x .77 inches. Its lithium polymer battery is rated at up to 7 hours of digital talk time, and up to 360 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the GSM/GPRS 900/1800/1900 frequencies. The phone comes with a one year limited warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Still one of the best phones out there,
By Josh Wardell "jwardell" (Newton, MA) - See all my reviews I have owned this phone over a year now and I still love it. I had a steep requirements list that is still not met by many other models. I paid over $300 to buy it slightly used from europe, now it can be had much easier and cheaper. It replaces my previous Handspring/Palm Treo. Via Bluetooth, it easily syncs all my contacts and calendars with my computer. I never needed to enter a single phone number. I made custom ringtones simply out of mp3s and assigned them to different people who are calling. No need to have an annoying phone that plays a computerized version of a song, this one plays the real thing. You may wish the convert the mp3 to mono and 56bps to conserve space. The phone comes with 36MB of space which is still much more than almost every other phone on the market, more than enough for the average user. Once you take photos and videos, you can easily transfer them to your computer via bluetooth. Another big plus is the thousands of free java games that you can download and place on the phone from the internet. Get away from the horrible selection and charges that your phone service makes you deal with. This phone is small, durable, has a beautiful screen, more features than you need. The camera and video quality is much better than other phones of the same resolution. Th FM radio pulls in more stations than I think any other radio I've used. That said, I never use it, because you are required to use the included headphones which I never bother with. Someone mentioned this does not have a speakerphone. It absolutely does have a speakerphone and it is loud and good quality. It uses the same rear speaker for listening to music and its excellent mp3 ringers. Mac users can use its bluetooth out-of-the-box for syncing and transferring files. PC users can download free software off of sony's website to do the same. With the additional USB charging cradle, you can also update the phone's firmware to keep it up-to-date. (Ignore earlier reviews of a slow interface and short battery life, these have all been fixed with free firmware updates)

5.0 out of 5 stars
this phone have all.,
i bought this phone on 6/11/2004 and works perfect! this is the best phone i ever had, because it got all the things that you need just name it, the only thing that not have is memory slot, but for me is not a problem.
PROS: 1-features like radio, camera, ui icons, screen resolution, infrared, bluetooth, connectivity, video camera, media player, reception, keypad works great!, pc sync, sounds, call quality, mp3, memory of 41mb, design, the quickly response of the keypad and the user interface with 3d icons, the calendar rocks, small size and the phone games. CONS: 2- no memory slot, and the batery life is not as they say. the phone with bluetooth discharge in about 2 days, but without it the charge is 5 and a half days. i had a motorola v600 and the phone freeze and have alot of bad things, then a E398 is a v600 but is not a clam shell design and have memory slot of 64mb but freeze too, then samsung E715, then a nokia 7610 and i have to say that nokia hit a homerun with this phone is great but not as the k700i, and now i got the sony ericsson k700i and i have to say that the SE k700i is the best of all.
