It’s just a superb phone! It’s got a sleek look & very good features. The keys for Walkman on the top are too good & the 2 mexapixel camera takes extraordinary pictures compared to other phones especially Nokia.
The sporty look gives it the best along with its features. Got a very good keypad, one can type in messages very fast & the fitness app. It’s good to use, love this phone & will recommend to all Sony Ericsson Walkman phone lovers.

I got this phone for Xmas & I had a play about with it when I got home with it & I thought the features where amazing & I can’t wait until Xmas to have it full time.

I mean I got this phone from Woolworths at £69.99 & have had it for 7 months. It is a brilliant phone I love it, it looks so cool. I would advise you to get this phone because stocks are running out.

The phone is VERY GOOD when it comes to its features, it is also user friendly, plus it’s a Walkman phone & with 512MB built in memory we can store good number of songs.
The DISADVANTAGE with this phone is the rubber covering comes out, & makes the phone look shabby. Apart from that the connection is loose so makes it a task to listen to songs.
I advise people not to buy this phone, because with these two disadvantages it becomes difficult to handle the phone.

The phone has various things that you would want to have such as a 2 mega pixel camera an external stylish screen buttons on the outside for your MP3 & the best thing of all the clearness of the sound when you have got it on full blast. It is absolutely fantabulous when you have got it on full blast. Imagine a hi-fi but a hundred times better. If I were you I would buy it before the stock runs out! This phones is the best!

Well I have been using this phone for almost 10 months. However, I don’t encourage you guys to buy this phone. Firstly, the rubber casing on the outside gets loose & more than half of the rubber casing in my phone has already dropped out. Secondly, the phone is considered bulky. Thirdly, the connection cable at the bottom of the phone is rubbish. It has became loose (for mine) & I can’t’ listen to music or charge my phone properly.

I have a complaint regarding the phone. The colour of the phone is going within three months of use which is a matter of shame for such a reputed company. I was astonished seeing it & when I took it to the workshop, they say they are not going to replace it. Moreover the headphones connector also got loose & it’s not possible for me to listen songs properly.

This is my 3rd phone but it’s my favourite I recommend it to everyone it’s the best phone ever.

I think that this has got to be the best phone Sony Ericsson has ever made. It’s just amazing & I am always topping it up with the latest songs. & I strongly advise anyone looking to buy a mobile fine, buy this one because you will not be disappointed!
On Nov 27, 2007, Charlie Brookes - Malvern, UK said:
I’ve had this phone for 9 months now & I still love it & its unique cause it actually didn’t sell in Canada. Love the pedometer feature, & it’s pretty durable, I’ve dropped it more than seven times onto concrete & such & it’s still working perfectly.
Only problem I am having with it now is that the headset gets disconnected easily with the phone & quite a bit of dust gathers inside the phone if you ever open the back.
