5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Phone, March 29, 2008
By speedriff (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews
This is one awesome little phone. First of all the screen is the brightest and most detailed I have found on any phone. In the store it is so bright it just screams at you. I have found that reducing the brightness to 70% is more than adequate. If you have trouble reading a phone in direct sunlight, fear no more. As for features, there are just too many to mention. I first learned about it from the Toyota website as I just bought a Prius. It is one of the VERY few phones that will integrate seamlessly with the car. It can even upload its phone book via Bluetooth to the car. Most phones (except smart phones/PDA's) will not. They are also 3 times the price. It has a great sounding MP3 player. It is stereo Bluetooth, FM radio...I could go on and on. There are some great themes free online so you can customize away. If there was one gripe it would be that it doesn't come with an M2 memory card which it needs if you are going to load up on music and photos. I can't complain though as this phone is very affordable. Some complaints I have heard are that the number keys are too small. Well, I'm 6'2" and about 280lbs. (not a small guy) and I don't have any problem getting my fingers to work the buttons. The other complaint I have heard about is battery life. Well I have talked and talked and played with this thing for 3 days now, and the battery is still more than half. I'm not sure what people think is good, but after my RAZR...pffft...this thing is great. My techie coworkers were amazed by the display and all agreed that it was unbelievably bright. I would recommend this jewel to anyone who wants a great phone that has a lot of cool features. It blows away the Samsung SCH-a737 and the LG Shine. Go to a local AT&T store and play with one. Then buy one at whatever outlet suits you.

4.0 out of 5 stars A nice useful phone, July 22, 2008
I have now been using this phone for almost seven months and I am pretty happy with it (AT&T Pay as you Go service). Some observations ...

Pros:
- Very comfortable and small. It feels good in hand. Nothing about the device looks cheap.
- Awesome voice quality and no dropped calls.
- The screen display is very bright and colorful - the best I've seen of any device so far.
- Decent bluetooth integration, though I do experience some dropouts. Bluetooth MP3 functionality (fast forward, next track, etc) is acceptable, but not great.
- Sports functions (like a pedometer) which work fairly well.
- Well designed menu structure and lots of functions to tweak.
- Good quality radio with RDS.
- Very good speaker quality.
- Great organizer functions, with a well designed Alarm.
- Nicely customizable themes and startup/shutdown animations (yea this is important to me!).
- Good internet browser.

Cons:
- Proprietary USB and Headphone jacks. I just don't get it! And naturally in this case you cannot listen to music and charge the phone at the same time.
- Proprietary memory stick expansion slot. MS is slow and expensive - total waste of money - but no choice on this phone.
- Firmware bugs ... too many to mention here, and no hope of getting them fixed.
- No way to organize contacts into folders.
- For an 'mp3' player, actual mp3 function is very basic. Depending on the firmware you get, you may not even be able to listen to an album in track order! There is no gap-less playback either.
- Horrible battery life. With BT turned off, and not using the phone AT all, the battery drains within 5-7 days.
- SE's sync software. That software barely works, especially via Bluetooth. I pretty much gave up on it.

Useless features:
- The 'shake' feature which uses internal accelerometer to switch or shuffle tracks is cute for a little while - but there is really no point to it.
- The cool colored lights on the side. They would actually be handy, but a recent firmware bug reverts them to a puke-green color upon use of the Walkman - useless.

Bottom line is that for its primary function, this is an excellent phone, with basic MP3 and digital camera support (do not expect anything amazing here), and I have really enjoyed using it. I however had to de-brand it from AT&T to enjoy full benefits of the device.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good phone when it works., September 18, 2009

I've gone through two phones in a year. With the first phone i had when you made a call the only way you could here the other person you were talking to was on speakerphone. That makes it a little hard when you are in a pulblic place. I sent my phone out for replacement and received a new one.
My second phone lasted 8 months, one night i turned it off and the next morning it would not turn back on. Sony makes some great products and i prefer Sony with my electronics, but after three differnt phones I'm staying away.
