Perfect handset.

Guys you might as well buy an MP3 player because that’s all its basically good for. I have mine now for 2 months & the phone just switches off. When I try to switch it back on again it’s a even bigger hassle. Like it freezes or something. I have to put the phone on charge to help it on then I have to make sure the battery doesn’t go dead otherwise the phone is totally broken. It’s a rubbish phone. To get value for your money you can never go wrong with Nokia. I had to learn the hard way so let’s hope history doesn’t repeat itself.

Nice work Sony Ericsson. I like it a lot I had dropped it when cycling & it bounces well, resists wet condition & is robust enough to take cycling in the wind & the rain. All the features are well thought out & easy to use. The camera does what is says on the tin.
All things considered it is nearly as good as the K750. But it is a Vodafone phone & cost a lot more that similar phones.

Just buy it. =D. Good phone.

I’ve had this phone for almost a whole year & no problems for me. The only bad things is the themes. Only 1 or 2 good themes come with it. Other wise it’s great! 9 out of 10.

Great phone defiantly recommend it.
No radio, No zoom on camera but STILL AMAZING.

I had this phone for about 6 months, before this one I had a Sony Ericsson f500i the joystick was very bad & the screen was broken in about a half a year. But I wanted to give Sony Ericsson on more chance. With the v630i nice design, good camera. No problems at all until the last month people couldn’t hear me & very soft sound with making movies. I send it to the factory. They told me water damage, can’t repair. 2 choices send it back for 30 euros’ still broken or destroy it nature friendly. I never had it in contact with water. Maybe only used it with some light rain but I think a phone must be able to handle that. Now using my old sagem, maybe no good camera & mp3player. But the sound is perfect & it never breaks down.

This handset was gifted to me just a month back by my girlfriend. It’s really a good one. It has good image quality, MP3 & the best thing I liked is Internet & Bluetooth. The only thing it should have is FM. But in all excellent piece. So do not think and buy one.

I have a Samsung ZV40 which is a fairly good phone. I’ve had it for around 6 months now. It’s easy to use & there doesn’t seem to be any problems with it.
My friend recently bought the Sony Ericsson V630i. I had a good look at his phone & I thought it was brilliant. The memory capacity on the V630i is brilliant & transferring images, videos, songs etc onto the phone seems easy enough.
I have a USB cable for the ZV40 but unfortunately Ericsson V630i?

When I first received this phone, I wasn’t too keen on the ‘Vodafone’ branding stamped all over it. I also had to get used to the chunky size (after being a big fan of the tiny Samsung D500 & D600) & the lack of ringtones, text alerts, there are only 5! It’s shocking!
Apart from that, it is relatively a great phone, particularly its music features. I was able to download ‘full tracks’ from the Internet, oppose to part of a track with other brands of phones. The sound quality really surprised me. Even in the highest volume. No distortion.
Overall, out of 10, I give this phone a BIG 8!
