Sony Ericsson G700 - User Reviews

  • How can I change notes alarm sound

  • my phone still work fine in feb 2019, just the battery drain problem but i already replace it and it works fine :D

  • May I know where did you bought your phone . I want to purchase another one. my old one is totally unfunctional

  • I lost the stylus. The touch screen was laggy and cheap. It got scratched easily. Was disappointed cuz' I couldn't record radio nor phone calls no more like used to do with my K750i and this one also lacked the lens slide I liked so much. That propriety bus always had it's pins rusted in my pocket and I had to scratch before connecting to PC or handsfree, not to mention it was on the side and made the phone wider and harder to fit in. But it was a nice phone from a design point of view, very slim and rounded edges. The color was also nice at that time (silk) Personally, I would prefer it with an USB 2.0 connector, a lens cover for fast photo opportunity, and no touch screen just extra battery. It would be perfect this way! Had it since 2008 since my ex left me, used it for 2 years, now it's stacked somewhere in my parents house.

  • Good phone but was able to use only couple of months. Its been in the shelf lying dead last 2 years.

Now I feel i wasted money on Sony, absolutely no reliability!!

  • Sony Ericsson G700 is the best phone i have.. but on last fiday was lose..so sad..huhuhu

  • Any touchscreen, must be taken care from water/sweat. this is my personal experience, as i sweat a lot, it shorts the circuit. the circuit for touch screens is situated at the top of touch screen. Hence you need to be careful. either you can use handfree or proper phone cover to protect the circuit from getting short.

My phone doesn't lag more than any other smartphone I've tried, including Satio or N97! Advice: get a card if you don't have one; if you do, get a bigger one! Update your soft...

  • i used this phone............ it is a failure model from sony............. we can't use it if memory is full........... it is hangup often....... So do not buy G700........

  • It is very useful when it comes to notes, shortcuts, music playing, sometimes even photos. It's bad because it lags, because sometimes it freezes and because the battery does not last longer than 2 days if you use it; if you use it intensively, it won't last one day!!!! All in all, considering also thee price, it's a very good choice for a first smart phone, but no more than that!

  • Excellent phone. I really like this phone it's just a pitty that mine died on me after only one and a half years service.. Can't buy them any more.. Why no one manufactures a normal candybar phone whith touch screen just does'nt make sence..

  • Ur experience is nt bad. Its an electronic item. U just need to tk ur cell phone to ur nearest sony ericsson service cnt. and gt ur phone's software upgraded.

  • 1)Great experience to use the phone. 2)Touch flow is awesum. 3)Short cuts r very gr8. 4)Specially postage notepad is excellentto store nos. without boaring d opp person

  • Saya punya masalah di seri ini: 1. Touch screen tidak terlalu responsif (agak lambat) 2. Saya mengaktifkan fitur blackberry yang akhirnya merugikan saya juga, masalahnya makan battery, yang seharusnya stand by bisa seharian, setelah saya aktifkan malah boros. Bagaimana cara me non-aktifkan fitur blackberry di hp sony ericson type G-700

  • how to look the phone...

  • the same problem is facing by me

  • having hand on this phone for 2 years, here is my honest post. uiq technology is dead now. slow processor, even after update i dont find any considerable speed improvement. always had problem with the touch screen, i even replaced it twice, but the problem is persistent. being my first touch screen phone, i regret very much for buy this g700. no EDGE too. camera along with flash is nice. now the phone itself is getting too hot even i had a call for 10 mins and the ear phone is reducing its loudness. finally g700 is a good non-touch phone, for its camera.

  • The only problem I'm having is that it's a bit sluggish. But it's possible to get used to that. Otherwise I like it, many good features, it's smartphone, but it doesn't look like one (which is also good, cause it's not big as iPhone for example), it has touchscreen but you can also use conventional keypad (which is awesome), notes has even a separate button, etc. Also I found out that it's resistant to crashing, it comes apart, you put it back together and it's working, and plastic even tho looks thin, it doesn't break.

  • My Sony Ericssion Mobile G700 Touch Screen Is Not Work Properly What I do My 1st Expereance With Sony Is Very Bad

  • I purchased a g700 2 years ago..it has awesome features..but more than being wid me it was in gallery coz it always has some or the other problem.my touchscreen was not workin..i changed the motherboard which cost me rs.5700.now after 6 months it stopped workin..now it has become a scrap as i can't change it again...bye bye g700..and also the cell is very slow but it has good camera and awesome flash...

  • it has so much abilities but i think it's cpu is not strong enough to do all these things. it can do many thing at once i mean together but it becoms so much slow that you may need to turn it off and some times you can't turn it off.

  • my g700 phone is touchscreen not working what vii do its possible to work

  • its a good and easy-working phone but my g700's touch screen fucked up 2 times and i want to sell it

  • Coming up to two years of ownership soon, when i first got it i was over the moon. It is my first smartphone and well now there is no going back, it is also my first touchscreen, the keypad is almost redundant now (handwriting recognition), and will not be my last. But a year and nine months later, im not so passionate. The battery life has reduced, it has slowed dramatically and im fed up of the limited capabilities. My 15th is in a few months and im hoping to get a new phone, the Nokia N8 is up there to replace it, but android phones look a better choice.

  • U can mark all and send via bluetooth to PC, or same back to get on phone. download MyPhoneExplorer from internet its free application to give support like synchronize all phone book, message, notes, call record, task and same u can save on Excel or Microsoft World. Thanks Regards, Deepak

  • i had purchase G700 3 months back and from the net i wish to upload my software and after uploading my phone become total blind it is no working i asked to service centre they said mother board damaged so need to change the mother board i can't understand what to do ???

  • Yeah, but none of them actually works... BTW, it's his 5-th month and it started to lag... :(

  • just wanna ask how to transfer or to show my contacts?

  • you can download a few software at mobile9 or mobiles24

  • I love this phone so much..

  • Does anyone know about a player that actually WORKS on the G700?

  • can I make SIP calls somehow???

  • I've dis phn for 6 months.dis phn is based upon uiq3 platfrom & it hangs a lot.it doesn't have edge facility & nothing boars me more than dis.sometime the phn freezes & then there are no options left for you to switch it off by removing d battary.it has got another huge problem-it shows wrong phone memory.a couple of weeks ago it was dropped in d water accidentaly & it's touchscreen refused to work.but as the time rolls on-it is recovering itself & now d touchscreen works quite good. The good thing abt this phone is it has an awesome camera & d flash very good.music is also very good with headphone(sony provides a set of hpm-60 headphone which produces a very mediocre sound but it sounds perfect with hpm-70).Though it sounds terrible through speakers.it supports blackberry connectivity which is not essential for me.the method of taking note is very pasionate as it can take note through both scriblle or text mode & the dedicated note key makes it easier for you. However this phone is quite good as it cures all the cons when it comes to camera & music...!!!

  • go to server!!!

  • i read here that to optimise performance, i should update the software.. i updated my se g700. however, while updating, the usb cable got disconnected. when i tried to update again, it said it is already updated. but when i turned on my phone, only blank screen appears. i charged it for almost 3 hours thinking that the battery is just empty, but it still would not work.. what should i do?

  • all i know sony is the best..... but when i got this phone,,, i just used it 2 months and stayed at the sony main branch for almost a year,,,,, I WASTED MY MONEY AND MY TIME.... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I am the favorite of Ericsson phone for 10 years,the phone k770 is good but sound is bad while we receiving calls

  • I have been using this phone for 8 months. It's so slow to open apps. But it's still okay. Last feb, my alcohol (in bottle) spilled in my bag. In other terms, my phone got wet. When I opened it (freaking out), it had black spots and when you pressed them they will move. Clearly, there was alcohol all over. It's still working now but there is small portion of spots. Also, there have been dusts inside since the incident. :( It didn't affect the performance tho. :P Btw, I always accidentally open the Blackberry thing. The app can't be ended. The icon at the status bar annoys me big time. I have to master reset my phone just to get rid off it. :P How can I end it without resetting my phone?

  • this is probably the worst pkone i hv evr used. very, very disappointing. so slow that appears to b 4rm 17th century

  • This phone is the greatest disappointment i have ever had with Sony Ericsson phones. I'm the previous oner of K700, K750i, k800 and K770i, and this phone i I have owned for over 1 year now. Poor workmanship, low quality materials(especially the touch screen), not very inspired keypad design(the biggest problem being the placement of the side lock key - which even if the phone is properly carried tend to press accidentally all the time). It is a UIQ smart phone, but the chose of menu items an placement of them is quite uninspired and do not fallow the classic SE line. Lack of standby clock, the fact that the messages application takes 2 sec to open, some issues regarding graphical theme change, and other minor disturbances of day-o-day operations, makes me say that i have made a bad choice of phone. Faulty touchscreen, means that can't press the sides and the bottom part. One of my colleagues has the same model and experiences the same problems. [email protected] - this is my e-mail if you want to know more from a honest user. Please mention in the message the you saw my opinion on gsmarena.com.

  • don't use camera, but videos

  • G900 it,s nice

  • @mahesh do not buy.. there r alternatives ... samsung i5700 spica

  • i advice you to update the software. Mine also, always hangs before so i updated the software and it work perfectly fine now.

  • LoL, i had the phone for almost 1 year. once i had a touchscreen prob, but after updated the software, it's workin' fine... but this thing sometimes goes blank black screen when i play music player or radio ( not in minimize mode), so i have to turn off and unplug then replug the battery to solve it. What an annoying prob. is there any latest updated software for 2010 ? yow guyz ... gimme a clue...

  • im planning to buy a 2nd phone.. but im not sure to buy which one?? G900 o G700.. someone help me..

  • camera is good, quality , can compare to SLR LOL!

  • i am G700 user Sound system is great, specially with headsets Bass are so great , when using speaker also great that you can understand clearly what the singer is singing, check the letter s, crystal clear my friend

  • i think its same as the volume control for sounds when ur in camera mode, try pressing the volume control and see what happens.

  • it has option to delete all go to mark then mark all than option then all willbe deleted try to delete some unnecesary programs to free the phone that cause slow speed

  • is it a qualified Sony Centre?

  • camera is quality

  • if you drop in water better open up and let it dry then try again let qualified technician open

  • to anonymous I also use G700, pictures are saving to M2card, videos also, alll nice pix and videos, can compare to SLR quality. Music also very nice, far much better BASS than Ipod & Iphone. Check if your phone have m2card if not it will not really save, specially if photos set to go to card.

  • can you help me with my g700??? the problem is the camera, it's not saving pictures..but the video is ok..

  • While, this phone has been released for more than 2 years, you can't compare it with the current phone models.

  • I have g700 and its working fine, if u don't drop the phone it's working fine even i drop the phone 2 times some touch screen prob occurs but now it's working fine.

  • i like the phone i have one but it droped it in water.so its saying insert sim.how much is it going fo now?

  • The touchscreen is not working because of mishandling. Stop locking the phone and try using the touchscreen. If some of part of the touchscreen is working, continue using it until the whole screen works

  • Bought the phone a few months back and the display already failed (warranty took care of that). It looks good, has a nice feel although it is a bit slow. The problem is that the camera does NOT have image stabilizer and is thus useless :(

  • what eber u do dont buy this phone its slow laggy and many issues like touch screen and network problem wasted lot of money gettin it fixed really upset but if 1yr ago it would have been a gr8 phone

  • hai am mahesh i want 2 but dis mobile give me suggetions 2 buy is mobile or not plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • I am an unfortunate consumer of Sony Ericsson Mobile phone, model no. G700 which I bought immediately after it was launched in Sep '08. About 2 months afterwards, one of the keypad LEDs went off. I however did not raise a complaint thinking it was a minor matter. However some months more later, other problems started up like the mobile not taking charge, touch screen faulty etc. Finally I took it to the service centre in Sep'09. The service centre personnel after behaving in an extremely unhelpful and lackaidaisical manner, finally accepted the phone and promised to call me once the phone was ready without any promise whatsoever as to when that time will arrive. After numerous followups, I finally was called to the service centre in the month of Dec '09 and handed over the phone. On checking, the touch screen was found to be replaced, but the led remained off. I returned it to the service centre and was again promised a call, which never came as before. Today, I finally went to the service centre and picked up the phone. The service centre refused to allow me a battery so that I can check the phone before accepting and it was simply handed over to me. I come home and find the old problems in the LED, that too after the phone having spent over 4 months in the service centre !!! Additionally, the charger does not seem to connecting properly and the batter is loose, which means that to keep the phone on, I must put a piece of paper in the battery compartment or hold the battery physically with my fingers !! Not only have my problem not been attended to but new ones have bben added now. I loved the features of the phone and thats why I bought it, but now the experience has become a nightmare. Jobsheet no. SE309BSL10073 dated 19/9/09 Date of delivery: 5/2/10 I am not going to settle for anything less than refund of the amount in full now from Sony Ericsson. Anindya Bose

  • I am using sony from last five years but this one is the worst. i bought it just 20 days ago. I used K750i and W700 those were the best. the alarm wont ring if it is on vibration. no mark several option u have to delete massage one by one. and it is very slow even sometime freeze. Is there any way to exchange with any other sony.

  • no u cant

  • dont waste your time this mobile is not friendly user!!

  • i've been using sony erickson long before, but this G700 is the worse mobile phone I ever had!!. deleting messages takes long time because the touch screen dosen't work, i have to delete it one by one and its time consuming!!. All I can say is, Pls. do not waste your money with this kind of phone.

  • how can i found my play queue i didn't find it.. all my music where go there.. i'm hopeless.. plz help me.. tnx guyz:)

  • that also happened on my phone. My phone's touchscreen stop working because of pressure and mishandling. I often lock my phone before its touch stopped working and I noticed that the too much pressure exerted on its screen while it is lock caused it to be damaged so what I did when it stopped working. I stopped locking the phone and the touch slowly worked time after time

  • You can use it in editing pictures in the picture editor available in the mms editor. If you want to save it in the phone memory, don't click save but after you have edited a picture, go to other apps. for example, I press the messaging button then the note button to exit in the picture editor. After that, go to pictures in the file manager. (Phone memory)

  • Hey! Does it really NOT have the ability to record a call while it's in progress? Can't I record my discussion with someone? :(

  • yea its tru. it happend wid me also once. der waz some software problem

  • i have jus 1 ques. my phone has frames and clip art but im not able 2 use it. derz nothin lik photo dj as in other sony phones...pleasse help

  • im currently using dis phone and it z workin perfectly..its been 6 months...xcept it hangs sometimes ..oderwise no prob as such..der was once

  • i got this phone for Rs15467 last year (325USD) well i brought it home from day 1 i saw lag but it had great features like MULTITASKING which even the iphone doesnt have a 3.2 camera that worked like a charm. this phone always did have a hanging problem then 6months later tochscreen stopped working then 6 months later suddenly network problem it tells me EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY Shit!!! i go spend 1100RS (25USD)n still they cant fix it i just wanna say in the end is that its just gr8 phone gr8 features but outdated n greater cons i dont know how to trust SE again DONT BUY IT EVERRRR!!!!!!!

  • ive use this phone more than a year and it works perfectly... no problem..

  • Use the right-side buttons.But zooming will automatically decrease the dimension: from 3.15 MPX down to VGA (640X480). Nurul Huda, perhaps you'd better have a T280: it's much faster and appropriate for your skills and needs :)

  • I was very disappointed with the G700. Have always used Sony Erisccon phones, but this one is a shoddy model. The touchscreen stopped working in 6 months. It was fixed but then stopped working again 6 months later - this time just out of warranty period. Now after just 1.5 years the whole phone is dead and according to the service center not repairable unless i spend another half of what the phone cost me. Just not worth it. I wont waste my money on Sony any more.

  • Hai Nurul Huda,This G700 is a good phone,you may need to update your firmware,don`t throw it as rubbish,get the latest firmware for this model from sonyericssson and update your phone.

  • My G700 is almost perfect but only one that bothers me, the # or space key is malfunctioning. it is no hardware issue as i could type phone #s without a problem. I only encounter this problem when typing words/text. its irritating.

  • hi i wasted my mony for byiny this mobile. it found allways hanging problem. past 6 month 5 times i re-installed my mobile software, some times touch screen also creating problem not at all responding when we touch. charging also not enough good.

  • hi im from bandar perda, i got this fon but , i dint like it,, this fon alwaz hang hang hang hang hang hang hang only,,,better throw at rubbish,,,,,, who make this fon all is can't use la, alwaz hang only,,, please check it out,,,, u all just know to make only,,, but donno wat is problem all, wan take people money only, coz tat u all rich........... plaese check 1st before launch it,,,

  • hi, i bought g700 phone recently, i hve a question that where i can find camera zooming options in the camera.

  • my g700 has network problem means doesnt catch network any more.service center personeal cannot get my phone repaired what can i do?

  • Hi...the only way i guess to correct the problem of wrong memory shown or filling up of the phone memory upto 150 mb or even 160 mb is to master reset it >>Master Resetting >Step One-Backup Its easy as the backup options are very good go to Contacts>More>Contact Manager and Backup Do the same for your Notes and Calandar These are backed up to your memory card >Step Two-Verify Backup Delete a contact/note and go to Contacts>More>Contact Manager>Restore check whether the deleted contact is restored It will unless you have a memory card problem Then master reset from the Settings and there you go phone memory is down to 15 mb!!! Then restore your contacts,notes and calender. Then scan fore media files in ur mem card,those will come back Tadaaa...u have a new phone!! Run an update,i think u'l get better performance of sum applications and keep backing up ur stuf every now and then so that u can restore.. U can even backup using PC suite.cheers

  • Mobile is looking very nice, so I bought it. After 3 months my touch didn't work properly. I went to the sony ericsson pc link in margao, goa (india) service center, he took my mobile checked in front me for 15 minutes then he went inside, after sometime he came out n told me mobile has defect n showed me the big visible damage near screen, he told me he can make but the charge will be Rs 1800/- He damaged my mobile n gave to me to have such amount of money! But didn't repaired it as I am in warrenty period. common sense, if he was checking my mobile for 15 minutes in front of me, won't he shows the damage that time only? why he took inside? If the damage is so visible, can't I tell him 'this is a damage'? as it is near to screen! I'm very much worried about service center of the sony ericsson as I have paid Rs 13900/- for that mobile. If anyone from the sony ericsson can help please call me on +919823461352.

  • yes.it works in 3g area

  • up grade the software and don,t put the memory so full and feel the deferent after that

  • the touchscreen work both fingers and stylus

  • tips! if you want to make it fast in reading messages use the clarity theme. 2nd there's a bug in the mms in editing pics. you can use the picture editor using this. 1 create an mms 2. edit the pic. there's a lot of options like contrast and face warp.

  • guys would like to know how to watch streaming video on this device.. advice plz

  • g700 is a nice phone with lot of features

  • my hp always have trouble in mms.... somebody pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee help meee

  • where can i find the upgrade file and how to upgrade

  • PDF Reader. The first PDF reader was not good. But you must update the software on the phone, the new PDF reader works very very good. All in all a very good phone, best I have ever had.

  • hi everyone are touch screen displays less resistant from damaging ???

  • hi jhec? how do you format this phone?

  • it's a good smartphone , if it has a problem , it comes from the software that not upgrade yet . if your phone has a ling time to take an action , just look to your phone memory , if it too full of memory , it can be a bad phone , just let it have a small capacities . sorry , no offense just sharing my exp . thx !!! n.n

  • The PDF reader is a lie. It can only read the simplest and oldest pdfs, anything with a picture in it is out of the question. I bought it instead of another phone because of the promise of a good office reader, and I'm really disappointed by this. Other options are mostly good, the camera is good, and the sound is okay. Not a bad phone, other than the office reader, which is not as good as you'd expect.

  • Please let me know how does the Touchscreen works. Is is captive (can we touch it with finger to access or do we always need to use the stilus) ??...Let me know

  • Its one of the worst phones made by Sony Ericsson... Luks pathetic, color is dull, software problem, hangs, applications start by themselves, to open a new received sms takes atleast 7secs.. Don't get carried away by the extra feature it provides at a low cost..

  • let's see. =)

  • the phone is simply superb.bt d only prob is dat it sumtimes creates dump files.

  • I received this phone gift. . . I liked this phone. . . we have already a week and I do not make problems. . .

  • I bought it in June 2008.After two month uses,it's software is not good.It hang.I install again.IT is absent in GPS and WI FI.

  • I'm a proud owner of G700. My best organizer so far. I love sony ericsson

  • I used to have this phone for 2 months, nice picture quality day or night but poor in touch screen

  • Go for E55 : You Get ... A Gr8 Camera 128 MB RAM 600Mhz CPU 16 GB mem Support QWERTY PLus a 1500 LiPo Battery, that will last over 3 days with Heavy Usage.

  • i bought this phone 10mos ago. .at first i was so happy since this is d first cellphone iv bought. for myself. .unfortunately it keeps on having problems. . the camera s not that good in dark places even if there's a flash, and photo is blurred when u move while taking pics.. the stereo is not clear.

  • mine is almost 1 year and its working perfect ,but the only problem is that the touch get little bad ,however i am proud of having it

  • The phone is very slow,internet speed also very slow,phone speaker sound is not clear,so donot go for this phone.

  • My first time using SE phones. SE g700. A superb phone, great features, great camera, superb sound as always for SE, lightweight, easy to handle. What more can I say? Buy it and enjoy. Goodluck.

  • ones upon i am used k750i but now i used g700 this is my dad gift i love my dad i love uuuuuuu

  • Mine is 5 months now.. I drop it 3 times but the screen not break. It still work fine. This fone still great.. I love all features of this fone esp media.. Nice fone

  • mine is 6 months now! and it works perfect!!!

  • I just bought SE G700 last month... I love it. It works faster now compared before after I updated the software.. good work SE..

  • G700 is one of the best ever sony ericsson symbian os phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Pros Features like Post-It Notes, Handwriting recognition, email capabilities, Negatives No call recording No Auto focus camera Unable to search numbers during a call Slower response time

  • At the first instance i fell in love by seeing it's options. I quickly bought it with great expectations. regrettably the worst phone SE has produced so far is this. None of the features are SE standard in this g7oo model. To add the plight 1st is battery, it doesn't even stay 48 hrs. even without a single call. Forget about 340 hrs. stand by time and 8 hours talk time. Is this a right way to cheat customers that too like SE ? Hereinafter, I would request all friends not to even peep into the SE phones specially when it is MADE IN CHINA.The quality of the cover is inferior in quality that one has to be very very careful while handling. I would like SE to withdraw this set from the market and compensate the customers.

  • more enjoyable if there's a WLAN included...:D

  • i wnt this so much.. but dnt have enough money... :c

  • g700

  • i just bought a brand new G700; my problem with it is the memory card..being corrupted all the freakin time! i went back to the shop three times already just to get a replacement for the memory card; im thinking, has it something to do with the handset or just the memory card given to me being faulty? i just wanna know if u have experienced the same thing.

  • go to grinhills san juan, there's plenty!!!

  • HEllo,,, i just want to know if there's available touchscreen or housing for my g700 here in the philippines.... please do let me know.... the screen is starting to get scratched....

  • are you from philippines? ask your network provider on the matter.

  • Anybody know how to activate the internet feature, been trying since I bought the phonelast 3 months. Evertime I tried to connect the internet it failed and appeared :could not locate remote server. This my only problem, other things I am so very satisfied with this phone.. love the camera.. it helped me alot taking photos anywhere with good resolutions

  • For jjjfff and other G700 users who want to update the software, download the application through this link: Caution though, be sure to back up your contacts and files on found on your phone memory as it will be erased during the software update. Hope this helps.

  • mine too....

  • my phone is satisfying, yet slightly slow, other than that no problem....thumbs up

  • Don't buy it!!! Poor Fuctionality! It's so time consuming to do a simple operation such as sending message or saving a number into contacts. It's because of Symbian OS. C510 is much better alternative.

  • which type of games support this mobile i mean .jar or .jad or anything else.....

  • I just read some notes about upgrading Firmware. How can I upgrade phone's Firmware? tnx.

  • It would be laggy if you don't know how to use it. At start up when there's no open apps, it would take time to open but what I do is I open all of the apps I use and don't close them anymore(7-10 apps).

  • Heya! I've been planning to buy a Samsung U800 for weeks now when I stumbled over the G700. G700's touchscreen is a bonus, of course, but all these comments on lags are disheartening and I'm not really a fan of SE. Could anyone please help me decide?

  • Mine had no problem in bluetooth, when i want to send a file, jusun choose send, bluetooth, searching for device ... chose the pairing device, and voila ... thats it Have u upgrade your firmware ? or ..you may check it at nearest SECS

  • this phone is not that laggy the only time my phone crash is when i try browsing map really fast in garmin xt, that/s it to write SMS, MMS, taking picture , even playing some games, it's quit fast.. not as fast as nokia, but not that annoying either.... fyi, i have Garmin XT, some games, Easy Drawing, and lot more APP and like i said, just garmin xt that crashed.. and that's because i browse the map too fast

  • i hve this phone..but i have problem in loading and bluetooth...my phone can't connect to the other phone when i want send music or wallpaper..can u help me..how and why???thx

  • for instance messaging takes a second to open..... very long.... but media is snappy!!!

  • its not laggy at all, very smartphone indisguise!

  • i want to know if this phone is really that laggy. ang if it really has lags, how bad is it? thanks.

  • yes, g700 has blackberry mail and blackberry web found in the file manager menu, but you can only use it if its provided by your network provider, here in the philippines it is not provided by my network, so i can't use it at all.

  • is it true that there are fucntions of this g700 SE that is the same in black berry??? what are those things??? confusing

  • and a PDA phone too...

  • It's a smart phone,nah after the firmware upgrade it's still slow,faster but still slow...

  • hi james wat version of software u using now???? u using new software the phone will lag anot??? pls reply thanks.....

  • what kind of phone is se g700, smartphone or PDA phone? tnx!

  • in terms of durability in touch screen, hanging etc. what would you choose? g700 or g900, tnx!

  • I think the weakness only on battery so low..

  • It is a excellent phone.I like it very much

  • I've been using this phone for over 3 weeks now. The phone's design is superb. The grip is okay and the look (I got the sandy brown colour) is stylish. At first use, the phone is a bit slow. Just follow the user manual regarding the software upgrade before you use it. After the software upgrade, the systems and navigation went okay and performed faster. I can say that this phone rocks, it could have been better than any smartphones I've used because it got no WiFi (I don't need it anyway because I prefer browsing on my netbook.) Pros: Good touchscreen - works perfect for me Elegant design and nice grip Lightweight Takes nice 3MP photos Music Player is awesome! Cons: Not Wifi enabled Stylus is too small Battery life on stand by is good only for 2 days depending on use

  • to all satisfied users of g700, what is the correct initial charging time of our bst-33 battery? thanks!

  • i'm using this phone for 6 months and i don't have any problem with this phone. i love the design n the touch screen work good. this is a good phone. buy it...!!

  • i'd rather watch youtube using my pc or laptop.

  • can this fon watch youtube??

  • Slow phone for a smart phone,but perfect for your wallet.... Performance is great,except for the slow processing,hated it as a messaging device.....

  • Yep,I used walkman headset,the thing that plugs inside your ear,pretty good,the stock headphones is just average,not really great...

  • Slow phone take time 5 sec to open msg,can,t increase the music vol for max,some menu not response with touchscreen,pic camer somethime like paint.overall not so really good.best phone with its price

  • all i can say about g700 is its a very good PDA/Smart phone!

  • In case you are planning of even thinking of buying this set, just get it out of your mind. This is a damn slow phone, very very often gets hanged. I am facing a lot of problem with the touch pad, have been to the service center thrice for the same problem of touchpad. A big NO NO to this phone.

  • LED can for flashlight?

  • Yes, my g700 has updated to the latest firmware.. Yes ur right k800i is better to camera coz its a cybershot right..? For me the speaker is n0t good unlike to walkman series.. Yes it is loud but the sound quality is n0t that good.. So i prefer to use walkman headset..�

  • The G700 is updated,the latest firmware is faster (although not really fast but faster than the former firmwares) much less bugs,a new theme.. and that's about it..... But K800i is still good,considering the camera. G700's camera is a-ok (about average) and sound quality is good. Change my headphones to mega bass walkman in ear headphones it's great. Speaker is loud

  • How can u tell that this phone is slow? I think it is natural that a phone is taking time to load.. Of course if you have a large memory and it have plenty of stuffs on it, it will took a long time to load.. Em i ryt? So it depends on how many stuffs you have in g700.. I own a g700 and i will tell you that i really love this phone.. Jst because it is simple yet have many functions!

  • will be this phone still slow ,if i use 2gb card...(it is 8gb) wat is u mean by slow performance..(is it msging..or any thing else....) i prefered about sound ,my current mobile is k800i and its sound is very low... i think g700 is light weight camera good sound more better than k800i can any one tell me more about it please? am going to sell my k800i for g700

  • very slow phone

  • hi! i've been using this fone for 8months... but i dont know how the internet works.. hope for your help, i want to browse internet using G700...

  • handle it with care and dont drop it...

  • Its sad phone , very slow , and the touch screen is sad

  • the sound quality is good and closely comparable to Walkman series.

  • hi pototoy. :D i was just gonna ask if the ntc you're talking about is the same with the warranty given by se for their phones. and oh, have you tried updating its firmaware? thanks. :D

  • Listn buddy..!! i got G700, every thng is gud specially camera clearity..but the sound quality isnt so gud as onthr sony's phone..so 1st try it thn buy..!!

  • P6,700? hmmm i guess its w/o NTC right? go ahead my g700 is also w/o NTC. who cares about NTC! follow your heart kid!

  • hi everyone. i'm planning to buy this phone because here in the philippines it costs php6700 (more or less $140). i'm currently using a g502 but i want a phone which has a larger screen, better camera, touch screen and most of all, has an office viewer and editor (since i'm still a student). i was just wondering if there are already available new firmware updates so that maybe (just maybe), the particular lag and hangs that most people are complaining about g700 can be fixed. and can i debrand this phone so that i can enable flash themes? (i wonder too if there are available flash themes for g700) anyway, thanks in advance for those who will be kind enough to respond to my queries. :)

  • Actually the G700 is much more better. everything is good in this phone specially its price in iran. the battery of G700 is better than LG

  • common just go for g700, i'll accompany you when you buy, and text me again ok?!

  • hmm., i still have 2nd tot about g700 or w595

  • find out and log on to www.sonyericsson.com

  • what's the latest firmware of g700? tnx..

  • i used to have lg cookie, but i sell it and bought the se g700. problem with lg cookie is the battery, it last only 1 1/2 days, while the g700 lasts about 3-4 days with regular text and call use.

  • i am still doutful whether to buy G700 or to buy LG PK500. i compared them online, but i dont know what to do yet? anybosy has an idea or suggestion ?

  • Yo you might know me as a seller,but I bought my own G700 last saturday,it's a great phone (Considering it's budget) The G700 is equipped with a 2.4 inch resistive touch screen which is great (due to the price range you might just get a normal 2.2 incher or less but colors are kinda cold but pl) Battery is great lasted the whole day playing music (Brightness is set to 15% percent actually) A cool feature here is that you can actually draw on the phone (I believe that more high end phone doesn't have this kind of feature,for example Apple iPhone 3gs) love the design it's just simple like me,and great music player and gallery,more like a walkman due to the Mega Bass preset.Camera is great,clear details for a budget phone,but a little fady. But there are some downsideds though you can't change the Theme icon,performance is rather very very slow... but acceptable,earphones that comes from the package only has average quality,pure plastic build,not enough colors (available colors are truffle brown and silk bronze),camera lacks autofocus,messaging (or texting) isn't the best (even K800i is better at this aspect due to slow response). But all in all the phone work great for the first week,no freezing was present (While it opens up there's a notification saying busy,but pretty slow very very slow). It's like the usual sony ericsson but just a touch screen one. Conclusion: Pros:Best equipped budget phone up to date,Great Gallery,Great music player (I mean very great,seriously),best camera resolution for it's price,Big screen (Wooo!!! touchy) and very solid build,good battery. Cons:Very very slow UI (It took more than 5 seconds to just open the messaging menu),very weird to text,the Not so customizable UI,camera maybe good but there's something lacking,you could've but a new cheap Phillip earphones to replace the earphones (If you love listening to music),they could've made new sets of colors like Dark Black,Champagne red,Mystic Blue or even Majestic Gold for Christ's sakes.

  • Sorry it's phased out.....

  • ok james, give us a feedback when u get the g700

  • I'll be posting what I think about this phone as soon as I get my phone on Friday. Apparently a lot of people have chosen this model over G900 - because it seemed slower. I choose this one because I don't use the internet on mobile phones, hence, we created netbooks.

  • phone is too good bt i m talking abt your service centre service because my cell is their from last 20 days n the people is just saying that part is not avilable.

  • phone is too good bt what about service

  • Hey, the option ( play caller's name) isn't good in my phone, it plays the name but in a v.low sound not coming from the speakers ... Can it be as high as the ringtone so that I can hear it ???????

  • i sold my lg cookie too over se g700., cookie is good but it has a very bad battery!!!!!

  • no it dont have any such in built func of call record ... but u may download this software any sis or sisx file as it is a symbain uiq(operating system ) like all the nokia n series........

  • Actually, a program had been made for this phone and G900 to boosts its speed. You can download it and install it on your phone. But I haven't tried it yet because I'm very satisfied with the performance of my phone.

  • Applications- It takes about 3 seconds to open an application but what I usually do is that I open the applications that I usually use and never close it anymore. I frequently have 8-10 open application and switching is such a breeze. About the messaging part, it's really the slowest application in this phone. It takes about 1.5 seconds to make messages and takes about 3 seconds to read messages but sometimes the theme used affects the speed of it but it's not really bothering atleast for me. What I really like about the phone is the media center for example it has an auto playlist that you can't find in other phones. The music player also has a good visualization and the loud speaker is really loud. About the picture gallery, it's really great because it can handle thousands of pictures and I can actually tag pictures on the go. And haven't I told, I can edit documents too on the go. It has a capable camera too. Details are nice but sometimes it has some oil-painting effect, usually shows in low-lighting conditions. Overall I'll rate it 8.65/10 and I'm just glad that I chose this phone over Lg Cookie.

  • Dnt Buy this one...thts all i can say to ya

  • i bought g700 made in china , in 1 month i realized that it had realy poor reception and i could'nt set the network to "GSM only" send it back to sony and the returned a new one the second one also made in china failed to startup after one week . I send it back to sony and they returned a new one. the third i own now made also from china , it keeps loosing the GPRS signal . i dont know what to say !!! can i be that unlucky ???

  • I just bought this phone and i couldn't be happier its great i love it. The touch screen is the best. I would give this phone 9/10 the only down fall is so apps are very slow like txts!!! Still it's the best phone for the price it is and especially for a touchscreen!!!!

  • neither of them !!!

  • goodluck! its a smart/nice phone!

  • Boss, ur reply was very informative. I am going to buy this phone tomorrow.I really appreciate your patience in answering all my questions.Thanks a lot for that.It would be really greatful if you can suggest any tips,do's,dont's etc for effective usage and longer life of this mobile.

  • 5 to 8 seconds its not irritating at all.....

  • ds could be d greatest phone on its price range if only it has a speedy processor.unfortunately,it has a vry slow processor,it takes almost 5-8 seconds to open apps,open new msgs and write msg..its really annoying AND IRRIRATATING..d slow processor ruined everything..SE PLS DO SOMETHING ABT IT

  • we have d same problem..anybody pls help us fix it...tnx

  • Reply to ur questions as i have felt this phone. 1. It does not hang if 2-3 apps are used, as i have music player going and drawing on notepad or making entries in money manager. A very few times it has hanged and i swith off and restart. 2. overall the UI is not fast and that is a irritant. If you are loading more games or third party apps then there is definite slow down as the processor is slow. SMS is a single button feature and it opens to message dialog box and press the more touch screen to initiate message typing. 3.camera quality is good but like any cell camera there is a shake when u press to take photos. I have personally gone to SLR for taking professional photos and i have used this feature only to capture some moments which i wanted to capture the moment. 4.Many ppl reported that touch screens become unresponsive gradually,is it true? In my experience the touch screen lost its calibration after 7 months and i got it replaced while in warranty. U need to avoid using nails even accidentally. The call quality and voice reception is very good and i am able to make calls even in low signal areas. Even the battery comes for 2-3 days as i allow the battery to drain completely till the red light blinks and then charge. Even at 18 % charge it comes for 6-7 hrs and a few calls. Thanks

  • Can anybody tell, whether this cell is having inbuilt dictaphone, i.e., call recording facility during live talk? Do reply at urgent as i've to buy within 4-5 days only.

  • initial charge the battery for at least 4 hrs., deactivate the 3g, empty the task manager at all times. or visit the sonyericsson website there are tips there for you to increase the battery power supply.

  • I bought this phone a week ago, I think this phone is great but the battery is easily to get low!!!I just getting 1 day of battery life.. please tell me what I have to do???

  • Hi I am a little bit confused. Please help if anyone can. I am planning to buy this handset within 2 days but my problem is I am using mobile basically for the internet purpose and here in India only Edge is maximum data transfer speed. In this handset no edge facility is available so how much speed I get maximum? In my nokia E62 handset I am getting Maximum 32kbps and minimum 18kbps when I download a file. This handset is 3g facility but no need for it here in India. what should I do? I buy it or not? Please anyone suggest me Thanks in advance. [email protected]

  • dude u hear this only in our country !!otherwise a very good phone!

  • Hi everyone, I went to check out this phone yesterday and in 2 showrooms they said that this phone's manufacturing has been stopped and it's also a bad phone that hangs a lot. One of the guys was also saying that he has liquidation stock and he'll sell it to me for just Rs 7500 . PPl please tell me if this is true.

  • well you can see Time.. it's a setting i guess.

  • Hi pls help me just want to ask how can i set the time in my INBOX coz its almost 7hrs late in the present time....but for me its a nice phone...im just starting to know how to use the specs of this phone....

  • G 700 show massage sending fail when G 7oo phone storage wizard cointain unknown standby files these standby files could not be open if we want to see preview

  • amazing mobile phone there`s many symbol in this phone i love it, 8GB? no problem! thank you soner,

  • Does it have call recording facality in it?

  • could this mobile support all the .sis files and others which is supported by s60 mobiles in nokia.....

  • First of all BEFORE buying this phone you must know: 1. it's a good value phone 2. the battery lasts up to 3 days , but only if you disable 3G networks (see Settings->Connectivity->Mobile Networks->then press -> select GSM/3G Networks and select Only GSM.... very IMPORTANT STUFF... 3. The phone takes a while to start up ( 1 minute...)and another 20 second before you can make a call 4. A nice feature is that it can write messages with the stylus, and recognizes handwriting quite well. Wish you all the best of luck ! Still think it`s a good phone even if it has some minor flaws... i simply love it

  • my battery last upto 5 days, for your info. tnx!

  • I bought this phone 3 weeks ago.. I think this phone is good. Mine not hang till today. The sound qlty is great. Using Intrnt it's so easy, touchscreen is good, app n games so intrsting.. But ya,.the battery is average, dpendent how u use this phn n stylus is so small n thin. It's make using keypad more comfortable than stylus. But overall, i luv this phn.. SE rulez.. :-)

  • 1. it hangs when the battery is almost empty. 2. buy a canon camera if u want an auto focus camera. 3. its upto the user if u will handle it with care so that the screen will not break. 4. use a protector film on the screen.

  • Hi, I am planning to buy this mobile but after reading the user opinions, i am a bit confused. Can someone from India (who have been using this phone for the past six months) clarify the following: 1. Does this phone hang often while using multiple application? (say music,pdf docs,sms together) 2.Does this phone become slow after few months of usage?One of the user wrote that it takes two minutes to start to write an sms. 3.The camera doesnt have an autofocus.So, can we still take good quality pictures using it?How good is the flash for taking pictures in the dark? 4.Many ppl reported that touch screens become unresponsive gradually,is it true? If you have faced any other major drawbacks, please do let me know. Thanks in advance.

  • in philippines its P8,900 w/o NTC, with NTC and full SE warranty its P12,000 above but not to exceed 14,000 ok?!

  • you should buy first a screen protector before using the stylus.

  • Is it just normal to get scratches in the screen while using the stylus or should I send my phone for a repair?

  • its upto your own preference/decision both are great phones!

  • which is better g700 or g705

  • try to do ds;at standby mode,click more and then select task manager,then end/close d applications that r still running.

  • you gotta be kidding me

  • HEY please teach me how to use the setting of g705 to my g700.................... is it possible?????????? pleaSE.....

  • g700 is one of the best smartphone!

  • i'm very disappointed with sony ericsson.. this phone is nothing but a waste of money !!

  • ok, this is the crappiest cell phone i've ever bought in my entire life !! it takes forever to start an application, turn on, bla bla bla .... and it has a rubbish battery and camera :) DO NOT BUY IT !!! i wasted $380 buying it :( i should've bought nokia 3330 instead !! LOL !!

  • one main thing i don't like bout this phone is that it takes to long to load applications.. especially writing a message. after selecting "Create new message" and selecting "SMS", it takes too long to open. when it does, selecting contacts is way longer. when the contacts apear, searching for your recipeint, takes even longer. It would take about 2 mins before i can start typing my msg. very annoying. camera button when pressed often times hangs the unit. nothing will respond. only way to fix it is to remove the battery and re-attach it again.. very disappointing phone. don't waste your money with this phone.

  • I have my G700 but i Have a lot of problem, everytime i turn off my phone it will re-start again-and-again. I let it checked by Sony ericsson service center and the diagnosis is to replace the board and it aneconomical solution. This is the worst sony ericsson phone i ever had. Don't buy one unless you want to waste your money. I think K300 is still the best SE phone, i have it for more than 3 years now and still like brandnew except for the joy stick..hehehe.. SE, improve the battery life of all the cellphones you're producing. it makes the SE reputation ghost.

  • whats the latest phone firmware of g700???

  • my battery lasts upto 4-5 days with regular calls and texting. pretty good ha!

  • The phone is good but the problem is if your not using Black berry better to unintsall the application and don't use business or personal transitions/effects this will increase the battery life. i'm getting 3 days of battery life.

  • buy a new bst33 original se battery.

  • this phone is nice but the battery isn't.. i lowered the brightness level, turn to gsm mode only, and switch off unnecessary applications like screen saver but still, the battery don't last. any tricks? thanks!

  • Disadvantages: 1. Slower than Nokia 2. No Wi-Fi 3. Camera no autofocus Advantages: 1. Cheap (only USD 188 in my country Indonesia) 2. So many applications 3. Accessible, usable, and comfortable keys 4. Nice looking phone with cool UI and animations 5. Touchscreen 6. Nice camera features (3.2 MP, flash, panoramic shot) Other comments: 1. The accessible and useful keys make the stylus is just a 'styling' thing. So I only use the stylus for gaming, browsing, etc. 2. The animations on the standby screen is a cool thing. But I turn off the menu icons animations for better performance. 3. I restart the UIQ OS daily and close unusable applications to prevent hanging. 4. The lock key on the side is useful for me. e.g. I wrote sms or email and I wanted to continue writing later without going to the standby screen first to lock the keys. 5. The touchscreen needs good care. So I bought a screen protector and I'd put it in the soft case rather than in my jeans/pocket to eliminate pressures on it. 6. The dimension is very comfortable on hands. It has a consistent 'round-corners' and circle design. 7. The backlight is friendly to eyes, even under sunlight. 8. Don't drop the phone. Every cellphone doesn't want to be dropped. 9. This phone is good for business. It has excellent organizers and contact informations. 10. Use it carefully and patiently. Cheers!

  • how can i deactivate the 3g? thanks! new SE user here..

  • i definitely agree with you. i hate this phone. at first i thought it was just the unit that i'm using. but when i had my unit changed, the same problem happened. this phone has many defects. it hangs. sometimes, the keypad hangs. other times, the touchscreen isn't working. i also experienced the phonebook cannot be accessed. delayed text messages. messaging is corrupted. calls were also blocked. i already called sony ericsson customer service. but the agent told me that this model has a problem with the Operating System. so why not pull this model out of the market. i had so much regard for SE because my old phone a K750i was really amazing (even if my kid had dropped this many times). but with this G700, i really got very disappointed. it's not worth your money.

  • deactivate 3g, use gsm mode only. less battery consumption.

  • wat did you do when your battery droped quickly?

  • why is it that my fones battery is easily to get low

  • help. i just bought my G700, i just fixed the time and date into our current time and date. but when someone texts me, i see ddifferent time and date but when i go to the settings and fix it, it's the right time and date. i don't know what to do.

  • Update phone,Use clean setup on Laptop,Then update works fine

  • Use Settings from G705 Phone,it works

  • use a PC or laptop

  • Does anybody here get scratches in the screen when they use the stylus or should I talk to SE for this? Also, does anyone have a photo editor application as the built-in editor can't be use unless if you're making mms. These are the only problems that I have otherwise the phone is very nice. It has a very capable camera and its music player is very nice and intuitive.

  • yes it has equalizer, amplifier, and subwoofer! cheers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

  • Is this phone have equalizer?. & may i use screen prtctor 2 this phone?. Thx.

  • i cant use internet on g700 phone.. what shoul i do??????????

  • Is anyone had same problem with me? My phone sometime re-start it self. I bought this phone for a month and re-start for almost 9 times.

  • i've this phone for three weeks and it's good..at first i worried because the battery dropped quickly, it's just have about a day stand by time with normal use..but when i know how to manage the battery i can use this g700 longer..

  • please help.. i have this problem on my phone. i set the correct date and TIMe in the settings and it shows correct time in my desktop but time details in my message were all incorrect. for example, its 11am but when the message arrive, it says 4am.. help pls.. over all, this handset is great!

  • It doesn't have WiFi.

  • is g700 wifi enabled? i love this phone at first glance, it has all features that i need.. except the flash.. but i kinda like it though..

  • Hi. It's a wonderful phone... if you're planning to buy it... don't hezitate. I bought it and i'm amazed of it :)

  • to add on, this phone size and appearance look like any ordinary phone out there, no one will notice it's fully touchscreen with os.Smartphone in disguise indeed. in my country, G700 is only 2/3 price of G900.Therefore is definitely worth buying.

  • I really like this unit but still have no idea on how can I have like this much expensive cellphone. I only have G700 only in my dream.. If you have extra cellphone can I just buy it in a very low low price? so that I can experience to have a camera phone. thank you

  • Hi all, can any one advice if WiFi can be downloaded to that mobile??

  • i have it for a weeks + , and i can comment below. the Bad: -dedicated keypad lock is a annoying feature. -available colour are dull -outdated processor result in slower clock speed -some minor problem happen to often(ex.touchscreen click sound disappear,freeze when switching application,transitions not working)*all fixed by turning off the phone and turn back on the Good: Specs & Features is promised and delivered :)

  • it's not cool. it's crappy. it hangs at the most random of times. you will need to open the back and take out the battery at the dead of the night just to restart it. it's so annoying. don't buy this phone. i might swap mine.

  • hi guys,i bought this phone 2 months ago,and all i can say is that this is the coolest phone ever!!! everithing is beautiful at him,the touchscreen is perfect,the camera is more than perfect!! i have only one problem-the 9 pad is working a bit harder... that's all..i am from romania(south-east of Europe)and my phone even it's made in china,still is working great..but i must say that i am taking good care of him..see ya

  • as we all know, there are thousands of g700 produced by different makers/manufacturer's worldwide. maybe the ones you got is the lemon one. well we cannot blame sony ericsson for that, as ive said, there are thousands of g700 was produced by different people who assembled it. lets just hope that the sony ericsson management be considerate when things like this happened. so far my g700 is doing ok.

  • Been using this G700 phone for about 5 months now, the touchscreen was OK, it does freeze sometimes but that was OK at least for me. I had no major problems...not until last week. I just noticed that the text messages (SMS) were getting delayed for over 4hours! i assumed it was just an issue with my network operator but it got worse, now it's not just the text msging but the calls were also not getting in. i'm unable to recieve and make phone calls at all. i've never dropped this phone whatsoever, took care of it because i really liked it and i don't understand why it's acting up. i did a software update but it didn't help. i called my service provider and they told me it's a phone issue. i tried to call the number posted on SE's website but no one's picking up the phone. I am a first time Sony Ericsson user and this experience is really disappointing. I've been a Nokia user for over 10yrs, i had NO problem at all. i've over 10 nokia handsets that are perfectly working (even the old ones)but for some reason,i decided to try out SE, which was a bad idea unfortunately, unless SE will fix this problem. i already sent SE an email and still awaiting for their answer. SE phones are not even comparable with Nokia phones. This SE G700 is just a waste of money. For those who are planning of buying an SE handset, dont just think twice but think a hundred times LOL go for NOKIA phones :-)

  • go ahead its a nice celphone, just dont drop it and take care of it.

  • its price in Mumbai is 11500/- , at some places 12750/-

  • i am plannin to buy a new phone and i hav G700 in my list, can i buy this one or is there any oter better models

  • Poor quality handset and poor customer service If Sony Ericsson is a customer driven organization, committed to delight the customers as you claim I am afraid there is a lot lacking in the way you treat customers. There is an absolute disregard for a customer�s time and your service is far below even average customer expectations It has been way over a month now since i have been without a phone I am will again emphasis how deeply frustrated and disgusted I am with your service. My case history is as follows: 1. I had given my Sony Ericsson G700 handset for repairs to an Authorized Service Centre (Raja Electronics and Services Pvt Ltd, New Modikhana, M.G Road, and Pune) on the 2nd of April 2009. Following were the problems with the phone which were mentioned to the service centre at the time of submitting the handset: 1. The volume of incoming calls was very low. Hence calls were inaudible. 2. The phone kept hanging and the screen would freeze up frequently 3. The touch screen developed spots on the screen 4. Music on the phone would keep skipping 5. Phone would restart frequently and phone book memory would often get deleted 6. The phone would freeze up on incoming calls thereby making it impossible to answer calls or cut them The service centre took the phone in and mentioned a time of one week to fix the problems. A week later I visited the service station to collect my phone only to realize that NONE of the above problems were rectified. To top it off the service centre said that the mother board of the phone needed to be replaced which would take another week. I was very patient and agreed to them wiping off all information on the phone and asked to be informed when the part would be available. I was given to understand that the order was placed and I would receive my phone within a week. 2. A week later I called the service centre again only to be informed that they had still not received the part. Again this was after being assured that I would receive it within a week. Also during this entire period of three weeks I received no update on the status of my phone from the service centre. It was me who had to keep calling and checking on the status, which I must say is really appalling for a supposedly customer driven organization which you claim to be. 3. I finally decided to make a formal complaint of this matter online as well as through your toll free number (1800-11-1800) on 22nd April 2009. I registered my complaint with a customer care executive named Ruchita who noted down my complaint (Complaint ID: SE1490-2446) and gave me the famous reply �We will escalate the matter to the higher authorities and get back to you within 48 hours on the status of your case� With great hopes I waited for 48 hours with no response finally I called the toll free number again this time I spoke to another Customer Care Executive (Nafeez) who again gave we your trademark reply �We will escalate the matter to the higher authorities and get back to you within 48 hours on the status of your case� However this time he assured me a call back to update me on the case. 4. A few days later (27th April 2009) I had still received no call back from Nafeez and decided to call again. Needless to say I spoke to another customer care executive Kuldeep and received the same lip service as before. I asked to speak to the floor manager at this juncture hoping to get some clarity on the matter. After being put on hold for 15-20mins I finally spoke to Mr. Harish Mathur who asked me to be patient (after waiting for a month � how much more patient can I be) and said that he would personally get in touch with me before the end of the week (30th April 2009). With much assurance from Mr Mathur I hung up hoping for a call back. 5. Needless to say I received no such call from him. Today (4th May 2009) I called the service centre once again only to find that no one is answering calls. I decided to call the toll free number and got a chance to meet with my old friend Mr Nafeez again who again updated me saying that the part has been obtained and is being check and analyzed (I wonder what analysis goes on) and will be dispatched. With much frustration and with absolutely no faith in Sony Ericsson I asked to speak to Mr Harish Mathur � Floor Supervisor. However Nafeez said he would arrange for a call back, which I flatly refused given how punctual and how wonderful your service has been in the past. I asked to speak to Mr Mathur immediately after which I was put on hold for 25 mins. This happened not just once but for the next 5 times when I called back. 6. A week later i called the customer complaints number again only to talk to a Mr. Vikrant Pharma who was supposedly handling the matter now. He assured me that he had spoken to the concerned people and that i would get my phone back within a week. (which i assumed as seven days). A few days later i received a call (much to my surprise) from Mr Vikrant and he said that i would get my phone the very next day (meaning Wednesday 13th May) he said he would inform me when to visit the service station. On wednesday i got a call from Vikrant saying that it still wasnt ready and that i would get it on Thursday this time for sure. On thursday i received no call from Mr Pharma though and much to my disgust and anger i had to call back. Only this time Mt Vikrant would not take my calls and i was told to be patient and give them some more time (i hear this after waiting for a month) 7. Then i received a call from Mr Rane of Accel Frontline (supposedly the Main Authorised Sont Ericsson center) Mr Rane again made me repeat my complaint and said i would get my phone on Saturday (16th May) and that he would call and inform me when to visit the service station. Needless to say i received no call from Mr Rane and when i tried to contact him his cell phone was switched off. 8. Feeling completely helpless i called the Sony Complaints desk again only to be put on hold till i finally get to speak to Mr. Harish Mathur (yes the man i had spoken to in the first place and who disappeared) He was very arrogant to tell me that my phone was not ready and that i would have to wait till Wednesday to get it. When i asked him what guarantee do i have he had nothing to say. And he was arrogant enough to tell me that thats all he could do and that i should be patient and wait. Talk about pathetic customer service 9. I have truly given up on this fa�ade of Customer Service that your company claims to live by. I think for someone who has been a Sony Ericsson customer for the last 10 years I have sincerely lost faith in your company and organization as a whole. Not only is your customer service bad but your product quality also seems to be poor and I don�t even want to comment on your service policy or your parts availability. I sincerely request you not to return my phone or provide me with a new handset but to kindly refund my money so that I can at least purchase a handset of a brand that lives by its promise of customer service. I still await an update from either the service centre or the main complaint centre on the status of my phone which I have not used in over a month now. I have totally lost faith in this company and your levels of customer service. I assure you that upon receiving my phone the first thing i do is walk up to a mobile store sell it for whatever price and pick up a reliable Nokia handset. Atleast their customer service has replaced handsets in the past. Keep up the poor service. Regards,

  • @Nika Every time you get a new phone you have to format the battery. First time you charge it for about 12 hours, second time 10 hours, third time 8 hours. After that you charge the phone normally, around 2 hours.

  • which is better - c510 or g700?? please help..

  • This model is one of the best model for business peoples. + points ======== For Browsing its very useful, The Battery backup is really good. The phone process speed is so good. - Points ======== All the connection area under one port making little problem for after 2 months. (charging the mobile, data connection & handset port) No protection for camera lense portion. There is no recording option for live calls. E.g If you are in call, you can't record those call.

  • Could everyth�ng in ds ph0ne be functi0ned with0ut d use of t0uch screen or stylus?..or there s0me applicati0ns or features that cann0t be used/activated with0ut d 2 i menti0ned earlier..ur answer wud be highly appreciated..tnx so much!

  • Unfortunatelly...no WiFi on it...cos basically irealy love this fone, especially the grey one..ahhhhhhh *climaxxx*

  • g900 or g700??? if we forget the camera and the wifi we can c this phones are same !! i want good person to tell me about the diffrence with the cpu and the RAM???? thank u

  • The drawback in this gizmo is that i cannot do call recording using this. Pls let me know if this facility is available or not

  • I have been using this phone for over a week now. Solid device and great usability. It runs Symbian OS, UIQ3 interface. Call quality is good, and the OS runs great after a couple of tweaks. Wish there was a slightly faster processor. Camera is above average for devices in this range. I took some good snaps at a dimly lit rock gig. Just adjust the brightness and contrast for situations like this. Pros - Very handy, slim form factor, Good responsive screen, stable OS with lots of customization options. good cam and audio quality. Cons - slightly slow processor. 200 mhz. makes up in generous amount of free memory though. so not a big stumbling block.

  • G700 is currently my phone and its great!

  • Excuse can you tell me is it possible to read .doc .pps and .pdf files via this phone? if so could answer me how

  • Symbian UIQ user let's join on www.persian-forums.com/f75Best Place for Symbian UIQv3

  • what about the accessories???

  • To Kyle07, Hi, G700 and LG Cookie both are good phones, some of the features comparing these two phones are mentioned below. - G700 has 3G (Cookie dosent), a Symbian UIQ OS (Cookie has LG software OS), G700 has far better Camera, G700 has a key board if u r not using the querty touch key board, G700 speakers are loud and music via headphones is amazing (LG not that good),MS office and PDF docs can be edited (not in cookie)viewed (can view in Cookie), a better battery compared to LG Cookie K500. - LG Cookie K700 has a very good touch flow interface (Which G700 is lacking), user interface is very attractive compared to G700, as a fashion statement cookie looks better. Overall i felt G700 is a better phone with great features compared to cookie. All the best.

  • Hi Everyone, i have been using SE G700 for the past 2 months now, and i am more than satisfied to have bought this mobile. All the features are working fabulously, however if only we had a better battery and an autofocus feature along with this amazing camera... the phone would have been the greatest ever (for mid range). Also found that the battery cover creeks a bit (but its not an issue). Overall this phone is fabulous.. go for it. Also can some one tell me how i can play Macromedia flash based applications on this phone ??. Thanks, have a nice day. =)

  • Hi, i have a problem with my phone... i downloaded a theme and applied it to my phone, however, the wallpaper is suppose to move but when it applied on my phone, it doesnt move.. does anyone know why????

  • does it has an internet??

  • g700 :)

  • g700 for me.

  • I'm sorry for the inconvenience but i would like to ask for opinions which mobile is better SE G700 or Lg Kp50. Thanks a lot :)

  • What version of symbian has?ty

  • how is about its speaker, loud enough? the touchscreen function does well, is it slow? how is about the screen quality, is it easily damaged? thanx.

  • yeesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!

  • this phone rocks!!its so cool.. i luv it!!!i think it so simple but unique compared to other phones... ;)

  • the reception thing its depends in what company u have

  • .I waNt tHIs mObiLe pHonE s0 muCh . TT .

  • I have this phone for 8 months now... I do not have any problem. EMAIL, IM, Notes, Calender, Organizer, Tasks, sync,, everything works perfect.. Other phones cant get closer to this phone. Its a great value for money. Go fot it..you will never regret. Battery is not at all a problem for me, it lasts for two days, with blackberry connect on all the time. Dont forget to have the latest software updated on the phone and ensure you change the brightness levels to 35..

  • does anybody have low signal reception problem?

  • //I got G 700 6 months ago. I have huge touch screen prob, only appl manager menu opens when i touch any section of screen.// Same problem.. could anyone help pls?

  • It is a excellent smartphone(G700) .. c510 doesnt even come closer

  • i bought g700 on last october and i should say that it has much capabilities and this makes it runs slowly and if i want to describe it in one word i would say it sucks regarding the device speed and it happend alot that i had to take out his battery to restart.

  • Hi, just wanted to ask if G700 supports various themes or is it downloadable with themes like all other nokia phones? thanks

  • I would take the c510 on your place because c510 has much powerfull hardware like Accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate... and much better and faster software. I cant make a choice between c510 and w715

  • Which one to go for G700 or C510?

  • I had the phone for about 6 months and it is perfect. but there are some problems: - it lagges too much specialy when setting up applications - touch screen isnt too good but it very good at: - it is quite tough - plenty of app. and games could be setup - nice size and whight

  • How is the european version of g700? i want to buy it, but it seems not so much people are satisficed with this phone. can anyone tell me how is the european version of g700?

  • to: magic well, Mine is working good. Did you already check with sony ericsson's customer service? if not.. try to.

  • to: michiko I experienced none as of this moment. My friend have g900 and I always wanted to have one too. Given a chance I'll opt to get g900 instead. It has nice features plus the wifi which is really good. i adviced you to buy the one which is not a china made because it really has a lot of complications.

  • I got G 700 6 months ago. I have huge touch screen prob, only appl manager menu opens when i touch any section of screen. the servive centre says its coz u keep cell in jeasns pocket, n touch screen has prob due to pressure coming on it. Hard to believe that quality shud be be so bad as to not withstand this normal use. Earpiece volume is also too low....... reallly bad experience after spending so much

  • It's a nice phone, i have it for a couple of weeks now. The biggest downside to it is the keylock button, which gets very easily pressed. It happened twice to call people while walking with the phone in my pocket.

  • yes g700 good lock & functinn bad and haging olles was

  • im using this phone for few months and its good, at first it is easy to get low bat. but when i adjust the brightness the batt. lasted for two days...

  • i just want to ask.. what is the problem with my g700? touch screen not working... pls advice... thanks

  • @isabela hi, wanna ask u a lil bit. thx if u wanna help me. which one is better, G900 or G700? from the features, it must be G900 but i've read users opinion that it has many errors in its software, so i become afraid to buy G900.. so now, i wanna ask u about G700? does it have many errors too? what kind if errors? pls explain, very very thankyou to you...

  • SE G 700 very bad, error. the battery bad too. every day i must charge it. suck i hate this mobile phone.

  • to:Shino03 I'm considering buying this phone but I have some questions. Can you watch youtube in the G700? And does the two led flash really flashes like the one in N70 or it's just photoflash like k550i? I will appreciate your help. Thanks in advance! -YES! youtube works in G700, but you need to install it first. And the two led flash really flashes better than N70.

  • To: vivek i cant able to transfer files through bluetooth once the mobile is paired with others...i dunno why its like tis..can any one know about tis..? -It also happends to me and all you need to do is to unmark the 'enable power saving' on the bluetooth connection page.

  • hi! Im using G700 for almost 4 months. Batt life is good, it actually depends on how you use it and how you consumed it.Batt last for about 3-4 days for regaular txts and calls only and about 2-3 days if your going to use internet. All in all its GREAT!

  • hey... i am planning to buy G700... i am scared on battery b/u & hanging, as some of our friends remarked... will someone, who is using last 6 months can remark on this & guide me.. if this set is bad..pls. suggest me other one..i am looking for office editor,3MP camera, 3g..etc.. pls. reply...

  • I agree with Sidiq, why SE has quite big sample which is sometimes "hang"... and no good service result from the dealer. SE head office must take experience from this.

  • Battery Back up is very bad... and hanging problem... Sony ERicsson SErvice also very very bad

  • i cant able to transfer files through bluetooth once the mobile is paired with others...i dunno why its like tis..can any one know about tis..?

  • I have SE G700, it works very fine. well battery is depends on the user, on how they often use the phone and the features of it, because this phone has 3D effects especially in games, and in media.. which really consumes very high amount of battery.

  • yah, the battery dries up fast.. is there any settings on the phone to make the battery last longer? ^_^

  • I got my G700 in Sep'08.But out of 6 months nearly 3 months it was at service centre for repair of key pads & touch screen problems. I love this phone for its compact size, Document editor & good FM. But now after long wait for repair of faulty phone I thinking of changing this one. I like one with Document editor and a bigger screen (2.6/2.8") for internet browsing.Pl.suggest some good phones under 20K(400$)

  • This phone is great, I've been an ardent fun of SE since 2002... the size is just perfect, its fairly well into my palm, but i noticed the battery discharges very fast!!! i got my charger on me everywhere i go just incase.

  • hi diana! i would just like to ask you if you're still using your g700 right now..because i'm still wondering whether i would choose this phone or not..i read your comment about the full memory on your phone even if you're using a memory card,how were you able to settle that problem?? would you recomend buying this phone then? i'm still confused whether i would choose this or a nokia e63

  • oh!and is g700 really sluggish all the time? and does the touchscreen become defective over time? please help! thanks!

  • hi! i'm confused whether i would choose SE G700 or nokia E63..i was reading the comments regarding g700 and i found out the negative side of the unit,does it really have a problem with the memory?and what is the standby memory by the way?

  • yes you are right dud! i also have k770 and it rocks

  • The awakening alarm of my G700 doesnt ring when the phone is shut off. Is there anyone who can tell me if it is a matter of software and conseqently if it can be fixed?

  • I just bought this SE g700 this Saturday and I don't have any complaints :)

  • hi i bought a G700 and its grey but it says it has a 3.2mp camera so it cant be the business edition but on this site it doesnt say if the G700 came in grey besides the business edition.

  • what I can say that is negative about this phone i thaty it's getting slower by time, had a factory restore but still slow, I use it lots at work and the battery could have moore capasity,, the touch screen works just fine in my opinion..

  • Can anyone advise me if this phone is worth buying for? I am planning to buy sony ericsson G700, but I read a lot of negative feedbacks from handset owners.. Please I need your advise. Tnx!

  • yes this is probably the worst phone i've ever used. the touchscreen is not responsive and it's usually laggy. not much games to play on it though. thought it's supposed to be a gaming phone.

  • good thing i didnt buy this handset. seems to have so much complications. was choosing between this and the LG cookie, bought the latter. but i wish i couldve gotten the k770 instead, exceptional phone. was just blinded by the touchscreen craze. i bet that when the time comes that touchscreen phones are as common as handsets with keypads, people will come to their senses & choose the keypad-operated phones.

  • I use SE G700 for 6 months, and don't have such problems. It works perfectly for me. This DELICATE phone isn't for everyone.

  • i have started using this model for a month now. found some problems with this model 1. touch response is really bad 2. Panel quality is so bad 3. Battery life is so low when u use internet 4. Need to close the applications frequently to get the decent performance. 5. Keypad quality is really bad. 6. not supporting much video file formats even if u try to open it will struck. 7. camera image quality is so poor . there is no image stabilizer and most of the image shinks 8. radio quality is soo poor and need to set the channels frequently 9.not good for Gaming purpose all together i wont recommend this model to anyone.

  • dude i got ma touch screen strtd nt working widin a month..chinese sucks n so dere products..........cmon sony we want japanese version

  • Hi people about chinese built i don't know, but my touch screen got defective under warranty sony erricsson service centre in mira road mumbai took more than 1month. no mercy people.

  • maybe your phone is infected with a virus. it shows the typical symptoms, memory getting used up without adding new files etc..

  • Qwerty - I can read '.doc' files and solved my problem which I reported below. Files can be saved on phone memory or on memory stick. The of windows I was using for some reason only let me see files/directories which are saved on memory stick. In other versions of Windows, for eg Vista, I can see both.

  • Paz24 - I find that phone can read only .doc file format, and can't read .docx.

  • Just baught this mobile and cant complain for now. Have one problem however - when I create folders, eg excel/word files on the G700, I cannot view them on my PC when I connect to it. Transfering word/excel files from my PC to mobile and viewing them on G700 is no problem however. Any ideas about what I could be doing wrong? Thanks

  • Hi, Is this quadband or triband only?tnx

  • Ryland - yes, you can edit and read and create new Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF files.

  • but i think it is perfect! UIQ in classic SE phone.

  • Hi, please don't buy the chinese made G700.The product quality is very low. My phone's key pad stopped responding and after keeping it for 1 month SE service centre in Ernakulam ( ACCEL Frontline Limited) returned it without correcting the fault.Now I have to use the touchpad to enter phone nos.Shame on SE!

  • Hi, please don't buy the chinese made G700.The product quality is very low. My phone's key pad stopped responding and after 1 month SE service provider in Ernakulam ( Accel) returned it without correcting the fault.Now I have to use the touchpad to enter phone nos.

  • stupid SE ! .......where`s large screen, jog dial, qwerty ? i think this `s the last UIQ phone

  • Hi I am facing a problem in my cell phone Sony Ericsson G700. The problem is that it is showing wrong memory..the phone memory is getting used up day by day as i'm using my cell, whether i listen to songs or i click photographs or use any other application!! There are different areas where the memory is used up in the phone memory like: Media files Camera Messaging Contacts Standby etc.. The camera memory is used up when i click photos and with it Stand by memory also fills but when i delete those photographs camera memory becomes zero but Standy still shows the same incremented value!!! The problem in my cell is that this standby memory fills. I'm not able to figure out where is this memory utilised?? The memory fills up gradually and consequently the whole 160 mb (phone memory) gets exhausted within no time. Kindly give a solution o this problem...

  • I had a lot of problems with this phone..Although, the camera is good enough, but, this phone usualy just freezes up. If your considering buying this phone, better think twice..good day to all

  • The awakening alarm is not in function when the phone is shut off.Even the first generation mobiles,ten years ago, were ringing to awake you even when they were shut off. How is it possible for such a high tech mobile not to have this characteristic. How is it possible that it escaped the mind of the engineers who designed it?

  • What does DOCUMENT EDITOR AND READER refer to in the specifications, will I be able to open Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF files on this Phone? Thanks

  • hello guys....hows d camera and d keypad of ds phone?tnx

  • I have the same problem with the touchscreen suddenly it stopped working and is not responding. I am still looking for a solution on this.

  • just ad this phone for about a week.. looks good been a fan of SE i had 2 SE K700 SE K608 SE K550i and now i have SE G700 it does look good..satisfies my needs...but mas its slower than my old K550...but Tolerable..media player is great!! My GF had K608 and now has K770 HEAD On CYBER SHOOTERS!!

  • Can some tell me how to change default homepage in G700?

  • hi! im considering getting this phone but i also have an option to get SE c902. any recommendations?

  • hi guys...hows d keypad of ds phone?is it easy typing a msg using its keypad?tnx

  • Well I bought G700 last week and am still trying to get use to it. Its a nice mobilephone and I like it.

  • This phone is slippery. I dropped this phone for the 5th time because it just slipped off my fingers. THe paint finish is not as good as other Sony Ericsson I've bought and tried before.

  • please anybody tell me how the sound quality.

  • I've been using this g700 for 2-3 months now.. Glad 2 have this,slim design with uiq do fine with me But,i just keep complaining 'bout the proccessor.it takes more time to open application than WiMo or other nokia's symbian.maybe because this is my 1st uiq device i've ever had

  • Iefung, visit the Sony Ericsson website. Update your firmware all by yourself. The basic rule of life, "If you want anything to be done, do it yourself." You already know the music, right? Just change the beat. That's all. And NEVER consider yourself unlucky. No luck. No fate. And never fall prey to these tormentors like "iim" -- he's an Indian studying MBA so that she/he can immigrate to abroad. People with flapping wings often cut others' wings first. You are NOT unlucky. You are what you make of yourself. That's that.

  • battery can last 1 day

  • maybe i am unlucky one, i have serviced the phone camera 2 times and still troubled. now i serviced it again for 3rd time hopefully it doesn''t get troubled again. i have asked for replacemnet phone but they don't want to give me one. what should i do?

  • I AM THINKING on getting a phone for a 24 month contract, so please I want users that can be trusted my choices are NOKIA N77, NOKIA 6600 SLIDE, SAMSUNG U800 and SONY ERICSSON G700 I had the samsung U700 and it cost me a lot to have it repaired..it was a slide phone so I,m a bit concerned about getting a slider again..my ribbon flex broke after the manufactures warranty so it pretty lame.. I'm not getting positive feedback for the NOKIA N77 but I like the TV! SAMSUNG U800 is nice however im afraid to get another SAMSUNG FONE AGAIN!! BUT I was thinking this is OK since its an open faced phone..so no prob with the ribbon of flex there with the SONY ERICSSON I was thrilled it has touch screen and the fact that it has image stabilizer..but most of the opinions are saying its not that good..like it hangs... I just wanted a phone that has a pretty good camera (w/ flash, night mode etc.,)..uses a micro SD ( san disk transflash ), secondary camera for video calling, nice speakers like the samsung one (bang and olufsen technology) and a bit sturdy..I cant help it, there are times that I unintentionally drop my phone..but not too hard..I dont like too sensitive phones..size is not a problem for me..I was thinking on getting the nokia N95 however its to expensive for me..so I'll settle for this candidates.. anyone?genuises?techies?help?

  • Well after my phone wouldn't start anymore i sent it for repair. Sony said they can't fix it and offered a c702 or w760 as replacement. Those phones are not comparable to the g700 in my opinion

  • use Tweak Peak & Symbian UIQ Speed Boost to improvement speed of UIQ 3. Good Luck

  • the camera is really good but what struck me the most is it's sound quality!

  • how can i enjoy the blackberry connect feature? i uninstalled it because my phone always hangs.

  • I just got this phone. 1) It is slow, but touchscreen compensates for the speed 2) Camera is OK - without autofocus the quality suffers but it is very, very fast at capturing shots 3) With dedicated notes keys and messaging keys, plus panels interface, the little shortcut at top left of the screen that is available in all apps, all make the phone a pleasure to use. 4) The only disadvantage is that UIQ is dead, so while a lot of apps are available currently, dont expect it to be supported for very long

  • you do that and keep us informed of the result.

  • I received 40 to 50 pics through bluetooth from my friend mobile. All the files received through bluetooth is saved in my Message inbox. I do not have an option to move those pics to media folder in my Memory card. I just give an option to create folder and move those files to the folder which created. Moreover after creating folder on my own, i am not able to view the folder from my PC suite. But the folder is still there in my Phone

  • can anybody tell me how the camera performance in this phone

  • For longer battery usage, pls adjust the brightness of ur mobile phone(SE G700) to 45% or 50% in this case the battery will last for two days.

  • does it play rm or real media files. can we install s60 application on it

  • do buy g900 it is an amazing phone i have one and i have already used k550,w580,w910,w760 and g900 currently using n85

  • i think you are the unlucky one..

  • its not bad for the MP3 player

  • I think that this phone doesn't support .sis. I get message something like this : this is older file type, and it isn't support any more. For symbian I don't know.

  • Does this phone support SIS files or symbian applications and what about the outer body, does it has metalic body?

  • thanks qwerty :):):):)

  • I live in Indonesia and i bought this 2 months ago. from the 1st day i bought it the camera is always trouble.1st day camera cannot be opened; when i returned it to the supplier they said may be the f/w is not installed corecctly yet. but in fact if after the camera is use to teke several shots the mega pixel setting dropped down itno VGA or ! MP only. can anyone tell me why? or is there anybody that has same experience wtih this gagdet? thanx.

  • Yes, it comes with stylus.

  • how do you put frames while taking a picture? I found that you can put frame only when you editing photo in MMS.

  • can anyone tell me if this fone comes with a stylus when you bought it? tnx....

  • Why there is no call button, we could not always use touchscreen........

  • Try to master reset your phone, the security code is 0000

  • i buy g700 weks ago then i download themes and games! after that i will offen but cannot be? now its useless why??

  • Actually I tried that but I could not reach that option because as soon as I open the Blackberry connect interface, my cell used to hang. I could do nothing after that except restart the phone. Ultimately I uninstalled the software. But now I have developed another problem. If I try to call someone, and before the call is made if I try to cancel the call, my phone hangs. It takes sometime to cancel the call. Is this a common problem with symbian OS?

  • Try searching in BlackBery Connect menu setting to disable BB connect activity.

  • Hi. Im having a problem with my internal phone memory. apparently, it became "FULL" (160 MB) eventhough I am using a separate memory card (1 Gig). I cannpot figure out how to free up my phone memory. It says standy memory = 144 MB. Can somebody help me pls?

  • how do you put frames while taking a picture?

  • Hi everyone I live in iran and have this phone for about a month its really great everything good battery life for a normal use about 4 days lcd is great and touch screen response is also good at the end i say this phone is great

  • My cell fell down today and since then I am having trouble with blackberry connect. This software starts as soon as I switch on the cell and keeps on trying to connect. I cant close it. I have tried restarting the cell multiple time but no help. This has made my cell very slow now. How can I disable blackberry connect?

  • i use it about 5 months now and actually not that very good, dropped few times and the stylus wore off, anyway without the stylus i can touch by finger and it really good

  • Non i had noticed and realized that this phone, it looks very the same like my old Nokia 3230 phones. I like this phone anyway. 3.15 MP, touchscreen, Wi-Fi, good battery life, not very cheap nor expensive price, perfect! But i wonder does this phone support symbian apps? e.g. Windows Live Messenger, Turbo MSN. If it can, surely i will buy this phone next year. I didn't know anything much about SE, because i'm using Nokia all my life and i want to try something new which was this phone SE G700. All i know is most of SE phones only can support Java apps only. That's one of the reason why im not buying SE phone. I prefer G700 than G900 because G700 has two extra keys. So, my questions, DOES THIS PHONE SUPPORT SIS/SYMBIAN APPS? E.G. WLM AND TURBO MSN? Thank you very much for your kind help. Cheers!

  • Hi, I m from India.G700 can work on freq UMTS 2100. 3G gonna be soon launched in India. So is it a Full 3G compatible phone?

  • if you're thinking of buying this handset, better consider the lower-priced cyber-shot phones like a K770, much much better

  • the rate is 15,000

  • can anyone plz tell me the price of this set?

  • Guys, is there an updated firmware for SEG700?

  • Practically unlimited the way i see it as are most smartphones. I reached about 500+ (inbox and sent folder combined) before i decided to erase it.

  • For more feature and if you don't need HSDPA connection go get G700.

  • can anyone tell me how much messages it can store??

  • I use this phone for 4 mounths,and it works perfectly (no bugs, no problems with screen, no problems with battery).

  • TO : SEG700 , I find ur commend really interesting. I was actually looking to move ahead to N85 but i really dont want to spend $550 on a phone for the features i wont use. SEg700 seems to be a good choice to me. Can u plz Compare G700 and N85 in terms of Daily user Expericance , Battery Life and Response Time. Thanks in Advance.

  • first time to use sony handset. G700 is really a handy phone. I have N85 but SE phone really rocks! I'm just saddened that G700 don't support flash themes.

  • The below post was mine... forgot to enter my name...

  • Hey! what you said, ie, changing the zoom via the setting is equivalent(or similar enough) to changing the screen resolution on your PC... But what i was talking about was the on screen option available for changing the font size while creating a message. It has 3 values: Small, Medium & Large. These dont work as expected on my cell... Hope you understood what i was trying to say...

  • hmm it seems like my review did not appear as expected anyhow, to change the font size just compose a message then go to more then settings then Zoom.

  • "1.Messaging" 1a. After reading a message when u press the back button, the previous screen is displayed twice, ie, it refreshes in a visible manner. very irritating. Zoom That should change the font size when you write a SMS. 1c. The option for searching messaging based on some word doesnt work properly."

  • I have had this cell for over 4 months now & i had a hell lot problems with it. Will come to the problems in the end. The good thing about this cell is that it is pretty slim, light weighted, interface is really good, has impressive features, touch screen is very responsive but i had problems with it. The battery back up is also good if you turn down the backlight to a acceptable value. The problems that i have had with this cell are: 1.Messaging 1a. After reading a message when u press the back button, the previous screen is displayed twice, ie, it refreshes in a visible manner. very irritating. 1b. The option to change font size doesnt work. 1c. The option for searching messaging based on some word doesnt work properly. 2. The touch screen had problems. sometimes it worked & sometimes it dint. Have got it replaced under warranty currently. 3. In camera, at the bottom left side of the screen there is a display which indicates the number of mega pixels. As you zoom in, it reduces from 3 to 2 to 1 to VGA. (i dont know if this is a bug or a default behaviour) 4. There are 4 profiles in backlight settings. You cant change it from the default "Handheld Normal" to remaining 3. 5. I used to hear a low frequency sound in the handheld ear piece when the backlight was on but it was fixed during servicing. 6. The flash light used to be always on during video recording but it was also later fixed during software upgrade. Its been 25 days since i left my cell at the service center but it still hasnt been fixed properly. I do not recommend this cell to anyone. But if you are ok with the cell having minor bugs then its a pretty good cell!

  • g700 is a bit slower

  • I have a problem with my phone, it doesn't play the caller's name although I enabled it in the settings. Can anyone help ?

  • I am using this phone for the last 4 months.Features are very good. But now a problem with the key pad. Few digits like 5,& 9 are not responding frequently. The dedicated button for Notes also not responds.But the touch screen is excellent.

  • G700 is slower than W595. Maybe because you don't know how to make G700 little bit faster.. try turn off handwriting recognition and transition, use simple static small size theme ( do not use flash theme, close unused open application in task manager, do not full your storage. Hope it ...

  • Yes.. G700 available now in Silk Bronze adn Sandy Brown

  • to save battery life: use simple and small size themes ( do not use flash themes), set mobile network to GSM only, listen music in flight mode or music mode, do not take picture often, reduce LCD light.

  • Keypad and joystick should work.. I already tried this in my M600 with its jogdial and keypad.. no problem. Btw, the touchscreen can be repaired in reasonable price.

  • i aint sure but im sure that it can support a 4gb since i have that

  • I just want to know, what if the touchscreen has malfunctioned and won't work anymore...is the keypad still useful?

  • pls coment on the camera quality.........

  • can anyone help me? can the g700 suuport 8GB M2 memory stick???

  • very sexy & stylish, but not at all user friendly especially for a first timer with sony ericsson. low battery life & key pad detriorates fast. on the up side though, very good sound quality,large screen & perfect pictures.

  • This SE G700 manufactured in china is Sandy Brown (purchased from SE store). I do not see this clour mentioned anywhere. Is this the original handset?

  • Today I bought SE G700 and this is manufactured in China and assembled in Emirates (press *#06#, if the 7th and 8th digit are 02, then it is assembled in Emirates which is of bad quality). Could any one let me know if this is really SE product? If any one had same phone does it work well?

  • if you have that problem, u need to do the congulation Zone timing and restarting your G700 again..

  • Hi all regarding times of SMS timeings does not match ---it is because of current time zone and home time zone. Siddharth

  • can you edit word documents using this phone?

  • Ya...same problem with my G700 as well...the receiving time is always time in future.......plz help....IT/Mobile experts....

  • I must say this phone is quite good as a smartphone. Despite the size factor, still has the essentials such as documents, touchscreen, 3g, organizer. The media gallery is also nicely done. This my 51st phone by the way. my last unit was Motorola q8. I had to sell it cuz it has a problem with the keypad backlight.

  • can any one solve my problem which is happend in my phone sony erricsson G700i ( the time is varying when i reciving message from the same NETWORK user)

  • I want to buy either w595 or g700...i m little confused...i want good life battery, good music sound, organised phone for my job....is it g700 so slow as i read???

  • Ya, you're right, E71 or Xperia is much better, IF MONEY DOSN'T MATTER.... With one E71 price we can Get two G700 With one Xperia price we can get four G700 Yes I agree its slow, I had it too, But I belives in same price range, G700 is a wise choice to buy..

  • U can go for c702.3 mp camera , auto focus,mega bass in media player

  • guys i am planning to buy a new phone my budget is 15,000.need is camera clarity and sound clarity .can any one help me to grt a good one i like nokia and sony ericcson please give me a good opinion

  • I have AT&T and have called a couple of times to ensure that it will work (I live in Northern Utah). A couple of the AT&T customer service reps have said "yes" it will work because we also run on the 1900 band, but I just received and e-mail from AT&T customer service as well saying that "no it wouldn't work"...ugh!

  • I just bought this damned thing a month ago.. Honestly,this phone cant be called as a smartphn at all It's much slower than the other OS and the batteries,,,IS AWFULL plan to sell this phone next week,hope i can buy the new nokia e71 or maybe experia

  • In some areas, yes.

  • Could someone please tell me if these phones work in the U.S.

  • can anyone tell me "how to acess the phone book memory(contacts) in g700i --> don't know exactly. It may be hidden somewhere in the phone memory (not readable from file manager). Just curious, is it some kind of FAR Manager for UIQ? Probably it can be read using that software. and one more question is that how to stop torch when i use camera on day times.bcoz its "on" all the time when i take camera "on". --> That's not torch, it's "flash". You can turn it off (at the camera viewvinder) by pressing thunder-like symbol, then choose A (for auto), or OFF. By selecting A, the flash will be turned ON if the light condition is underexposured. By selecting OFF, it will not be turned ON even if the light condition is very underexposured.

  • Battery life is good. with moderate messaging (about 20 per day) and few calls it should go for 2-3 days before next charging. However, I found that my K660's battery life is much shorter than my friend's. So the actual battery life may vary from one handset to other. At the top (90% above), the battery life seems to be shorter than at the range of 40-80%. At 40-80%, the battery life is at its best. At below 40% it is relatively short but still longer than 90% above. You know what i mean right? :)

  • The phone is so slow. Take my words on it, it looks very ugly. I read all of those comments here, before jumping in to the shop to buy this phone. Thank god that, it just got stuck when I tried to change the theme (happened in exclusive SE showroom). The guy over there had no idea and he kept on restarting the phone for almost 10 + times. Everytime I tried changing the theme it showed me " Network Busy" message and phone used to hang. Finally he asked me to go with any other model and now I have an w890i and its pretty good. G700 - Realy sad to say that its a dumb phone in disguise.

  • great.............

  • @discover The G900 and G700 are both very good sartphones. The G900 has the added benefit of a WiFi and 5 megapixel touch focus camera. Ive used both phones..and can certify for them. The G900, although has a bttr cam, its not as good as a 5 mp cam should be nd it only has a single led flash which isnt much for bad light conditions. the G700, although it lacks autofocus, the software more than makes up for that and you can take good pictures if u're hands arent too shaky :) also it has a dual led flash so night time pics are better. The G700 lacks a wifi though. For more info and any queries, check out my blog: you can use the contact form there to contact me..cheers!

  • can anyone tell me "how to acess the phone book memory(contacts) in g700i. and one more question is that how to stop torch when i use camera on day times.bcoz its "on" all the time when i take camera "on".

  • thank u karun and karan... now i have decided to go for a Symbian UIQ handset. i have dropped the plan of buying P1i because it has become pretty old. so, my choice wud be G700 or G900. eventhough G900 is better in all specs (except for the cost :) well, not a problem) , i heard complaints on its battery backup. anyone having G900 can guarentee whether the phone is reliable? pls help...

  • really an awesome cell..... the only drawback i have found is no WI-fi.... but yeah it has 3G.... close ur eyes n buy G700........ go have fun

  • You can get all the softwares here : . IMO , The Series60 apps wont run on UIQ though both are Symbian.

  • @discover This phone will support only those symbian apps that are for UIQ 3. Go ahead and get this phone. Its a pretty neat device, considering the price quality ratio. I'll be reviewing it on my Sony Ericsson blog soon.

  • hi all... i am planning to buy a new phone. i already own a SE W910. i am sick of its so called OS. so, i decided on a symbian phone. i checked the site. G700 and P1i are more suited me. but my doubt is, will this Symbian UIQ version support the softwares compatible for normal symbian ???

  • Great to hear ur comments. What is the battery life ur getting ?/?

  • Maybe you have selected "OFF" on settings for message ring and ringtone

  • just turn off ur phone fro a few minutes then on it again... ok

  • Hi Guys! I have my new G700 phone for a week now and so far I haven't encounter any problems ( I wish!). I've also noticed that whenever I received a message my phone didn't show up light (like what Nokia does) but it definitely rings. Another concern is the color of my unit is sandy brown (dark brown). Is this an original unit? Whenever I browse the internet the only color mentioned is silk bronze. Please help. thanks!

  • go to messaging, more_settings_SMS Account_then check "show delivery report dialog'

  • I have G700 for about 2 months, and it works extremely fine. I don't encounter any problem related to slow processing speed. Camera is awesome (compared with other non-AF 3.2 MPX), IMO just a little bit lower in quality than my previous K660. Plus a capability of turning on the lights during lowlight condition. Sound is incredibly loud and clear, without much crack or noise. First time I try the music player, it really surprises other people around me. With such croud, it can be heard (loudly =D)from 5 meters away. Messaging is quite fast, much better than previous M600. Texting is convenient due to good keypad. Tough it make some loud, same compared to K660, but that's okay. The only problem is the bluetooth. I can't receive any file from other SE (probably only non-UIQ SE). But when I tried to send file, it works fine. However, it pose no serious problem since I usually transfer file from phone to phone using laptop. Does anybody here (preferably has G700 in hand) have experienced the same thing?

  • I repeat my question. Can anyone solve my problem? my G700 phone neither rings nor displays notifies when I recieve a message. I can't know whether I recieved a message or not unless I check the inbox. I don't know the reason for that. Does anyone know?

  • Personally , i think the only Plus G700 has got over N73 is.. 1. More RAM , Its 128 MB 2. Touchscreen 3. Great Ergonomics Compared to N73.. It Doesent Have.. The Important Features like : 1. AutoFocus Cam 2. Better battery .. its 2 days at moderate usage. So i dont think u should go for G700 .. either choose G900 which had Wifi plus 5 MP cam or Go For N82/N85

  • Hi evryone..am so mch confused abt purchase dis?i love se's sound quality..i hve already sold myn73 for a gd price .it is a versatile fone..wthr its dat mch versatile..rply pls

  • great camera....... reasonable price...

  • Great phone! Thin and stylish.. best of all its touch! You cant go wrong buying it.

  • i heard that this is the last UIQ phone to be made by SE!!! is this true there will be no more?!

  • who is better G700 or k850i pls tell me tnx for all

  • Can someone help me, as to how the photo frames can be used in G700 while taking photos? This option is there in K750i, but not in G700 when the camera is in use. But I can see that many frames are available in the phone (G700) memory itself, if we go in file manager. But I do not know, how to use them.

  • I am not able to understand, how internet work on this, only WAP sites are opening, on HTML sites it giving errors... any one know how to configure for all internet sites..

  • Does the phone have a front camera? if yes how do we activate it?

  • Just install Pc Suite which you can download from the SE website and then ur system will recognise the phone.

  • i can't install my g700 on my pc..how do i do that? the driver of my pc didn't read the cd of my g700.

  • i lost my w850i(which i think it's a great phone except for its navigation). now i am aiming for either g900 or g700. few days ago i went to a shop and tried the g700. i am quite satisfied with it. but the dust problem that you all told about, will it be solved if i put a protection screen? or it has got nothing to do with it? meaning i have to clean the screen often? p/s i havent bought this phone yet and just asking random q. thanks.

  • Thru critical analyzation by many SE users, Its safe 2 say that the G700 isn't as good as a brick...but the major downsides r that it lacks Wi-Fi and has poor cover design (dust issues).Try get the Xperia X1 or the P1i...SE+ME=LUV

  • Don`t trust NOKIA users in judgeing SE phones. The phone is great! Search the internet and read some opinions and tests, so You can decide...Does NOKIA have a touch screen phne? For similar price?

  • Owned 4 SE phones till date, g700i being the latest. The phone offers lots of features at a decent price. My only gripe is the processor is too darn slow (208 MHz - as reported by Swiss Manager). Applications take a lot of time to load approx 2-3 seconds (would you believe!) - maybe because of Symbian UIQ. Anyway apart from the speed problem its a great phone to have. Solid build quality. No creaks or loose fittings whatsoever, that too after rough usage for 3 months. Rear camera has decent contrast. However i need to get this phone serviced as dust is starting to get into the front camera. However overall a great phone. I luv SE...

  • I've had this phone for over a month now. I like it because it synchronizes with Outlook.

  • this phone is really nice good clarity but i am phasing 1 problem from 2 days camera album is not opening and displays a message dump file created problem 42,3 plz tell me the what is the problem and how to get it right

  • Can the G700's Contacts and Calendar be Sync with Outlook???

  • 5mths using this phone....my screen's covered with dust :( dunno where the dust came from :( the only think i really like about this phone is its really LOUD :)

  • The touchscreen was'nt like that sensitive compared to p990i.. Know what i mean?.. You dont have to push thoroughly into the screen just to execute an operation.. Small Screen also.. When you look at it from afar it does'nt seem to be a phone with stylus.. JUst an ordinary SE phone physique..^_^

  • What can be the reason/s behind touchscreens not working be it g700's or other's? I want this answer very badly.......i m so confused whether to buy this phone or not. thnk you

  • The pc suite of g700 is very slow on my PC .......... but no problems with device..! And i dont wi-fi feature cuz it destroy the battery of the phone.............. :)

  • ahahahaha!! and you're saying that it's a very good phone on your 2nd day of it's usage?.. Hmm.. Better think twice..

  • Hmm.. Yes the phone is not mine but my seatmate in the office actually has it. And noticeably, she's using a new phone w/c is a replacement for her G700 and according to her it's still in the service center.. ^_^

  • Just got it yesterday. Cool phone. No problems yet. Best smartphone for 1st time smartphone user. Just wish it had Wifi. No other complaints.

  • is this phone considered as a smartphone/pda phone? or just a normal phone? thanks..

  • I have this phone for 2weeks and its great phone.........!and i dont have problems with touchscreen or sound........

  • hi darkside n everybody those who have used these phones or r using now......is this a strong and good phone to buy. I want a phone from Sony Ericsson with a bigger screen preferable a 2.2inches or more larger display.that should last me atleast abt 2 years. does this phone meet my criteria? i am very much excited to buy this phone but reviews from darkside n other users r making me rethink my decision. Please help me. Thanks n regards

  • worst phone ever, 3 times in a month went to service.Problem with touch screen, then problem with SIM recognize, then problem with sounds.Don't trust sony ericsson.

  • Its a terrible phone, used for less than a week and traded it for a Nokia N82.

  • hi someone had wrote that we can download business card reader software into this phone.. please can anyone tell where shall i download this thing......

  • I want a solid answer for Rapu's query that the phone doesn't start. I have read many such reviews regarding such queries where phone won't start, phone is totally dead, or one needs to take out the battery in order to restart. Why such incidents happen? Is it the wrong handling of the phone. Because I have also heard a lot about Nokia 3220 Symbian phone that it restarts quite often......but my phone is almost 3 years now and only 1 restart because more than 10 applications were open. Please everybody answer my question specially real users and not Sony Ericsson hater. Thanks

  • My officemate actually had this phone a few days ago.. Just this morning I noticed that she was using a different phone.. I asked her why?.. She said.. " The phone just hanged and cannot be turned off unless you remove the battery from the phone. It's been like this since I bought the fone and now the phone doesn't turn on anymore and I have to bring it back to an authorized Service center of SE.." Hmm..

  • This phone support up to 8GB memory card

  • what is the maximum memory of memory card that can be supported by the phone?

  • maybe you didn't check "make this device visible to other"

  • hii i brought this cell recentlyy but im not able to paired it with any other mobile so wat shud i doo......? thanx

  • Nothing new ! but tnX

  • For example: when you run CAMERA, and then press BACK BUTTON you are minimized CAMERA PROGRAM, or in same way NOTES, or MESSAGES. But some programs have option SYSTEM EXIT and then they will really close. For me it isn't matter is the program minimized or closed, but if the program is minimized than you can more quickly start that program from the TASK MANAGER.

  • Qwerty there is no minimize option in the task manager and system exit..?..?

  • it is a good phone

  • Congratulations DARKSTORM1, the application is going to be minimized when you exit it (without pressing SYSTEM EXIT), look in TASK MANAGER, and you'll understand this (when and why). Manatee i hadn't such problem. But you should try to study Sony Ericsson support page. Follow instruction, and in the first step your phone must be turn off. You need USB cable. I heard that the old SIM card may cause some problems on the new mobiles (blocked, restart). And install PCSuite for Sony Ericsson (you get that software on CD, or you can download newer version from SE site). But you have first to be registered.

  • Thanks querty, the SIM works fine in another phone. I can't install new software as the phone won't turn on. It won't even charge.

  • Hey QWRTEY ... I've this phone few days ago and its great.." but how can i minimize the application ..?.??

  • Manatee - try to install new software for G700 from Sony Ericsson web page, or maybe it is problem in SIM card(?) mina - the font is adjustable (small, medium or large letters), my phone is full charge for 1 h, and battery can take for 5 days, when you recording movie, the picture on the phone screen is very clear, but when you watch the movie in Quick Time on th PC, picture isn't so clear Zainalu - yes, you can answer or reject call directly from keypad, even you can received incoming calls just from your CONTACTS FROM ADDRESS-BOOK

  • Can we answer or reject calls from the keypad buttons or any button as I've heard that every function on g700 is accessible via keys or pads except the answering calls function.is it true? Please anyone... Thanks

  • someone pls. tell me,is dis phone durable? is d cam fullscreen,fast & clear? and how mch hrs. wll it take to fullchrge? and is d font udjstable? tnx so mch in advnce!

  • I bought this phone in June and was very pleased. However a few days ago it suddenly began rebooting and then I lost audio playback and now it refuses to start.

  • please dont compare g700 with omnia both of them are different phone and omnia is twice the price of g700 i have used g700 and i am very impressed with the new software and user interface you can use whole phone with out using touch screen for any work it really is useful when you need to do some thing in emergency like dialing a number and images are good new camera software is very good i miss autofocus. i only sony ericsson should have given wifi but i dont need it still.

  • great!!! tnx all

  • Yes you can run more than one applications. And I think it isn't slow your G700.

  • @darkstorm1 of course you can! the g700 has 128 mb ram. i run as many as 30 apps at times :)

  • I'm planning to buy this phone over SE KW910, is it better?

  • in smartphones can u run more than one application???? means in g700 can u run two applications????.

  • Is there any difference in performance between g700 and g900? I think there shouldn't be coz both have same hardware configurations. But still any one who has experienced both? Thanks

  • @DARKSTORM1: cos these are my current phones :) to be fair, the omnia does not feel like 3x faster than G700 though. also, strangely, it is slowly to load sms than g700...and the latest firmware just slowed it down more! :) @Zainalu, re the speed i would give G700 a 6 (acceptable), Omnia a 8 for most programs except sms where omnia is not fast. But, like i said, if you have the program running in the background already, there really isnt any difference already, except for the initial loading. (unless you have numerous programs running in the background). as for transfer, omnia is definitely much faster than any nokia's i have ever tried. i have not done any on the G700 though. i prefer to transfer from my pc to the card directly as it is much faster than using a usb cable.

  • Plzz anyone compare it to W950. Is G700 that slow that it could be a dealbreaker. Is it faster than Nokia 3230. How is the response of the touchscreen? Thanks

  • How to go wifi? By using G700, I am seaching all the menu can't find

  • Hehehe!!! u compared g700 by samsung omnia!!! samsung omnia have 624 MHz processor from marvell!!! and g700 have 208 MHz processor!!! XD

  • Damn it !!! the bluetooth is very slow when we compare by USB !!! so???? no one knows where the files goes when we use USB????????

  • When I send file via Bluetooth without any programs it goes to SMS Inbox. But I use Bluesoleil program and I can send file anywhere I wanna with Bluetooth, just copy-paste or take-drop in desire folder. You can use and freeware program such as MyPhone Explorer (it works better with USB cable).

  • Hi Tony thanks for replying. U compared it with omnia. I have no idea abt omnia. On a scale of 1 to 10 (1 being the poorest and 10 being the best) how much will u give to these two mobiles (g700 and omnia) for speed? Plzz reply this question plus the transfered files storage area from both usb and bluetooth. Thnaks in advance. I would be very grateful to u and to others if they answer my question.

  • Plz anyone answer him about the received files from the usb

  • re the speed of G700, it is in no way as fast as Samsung Omnia, but it is acceptable. I have tried 3 sets so far (mine plus my friends). It seems the earliest set was the slow one, so i suppose if you were to buy a newer set of G700 or update the firmware from the Sony Ericsson website, the speed will be fine. Also, if you already have a program running in the background, the speed of accessing the program is fast.

  • Hi...I would like to know how is processing speed of this phone g700...some are saying its good n some are saying its damn slow. Someone tell me the truth please. Also If I send some items (multimedia or others) via the USB cable where do these files get stored - in the messages or in file manager like in non os sony ericsson phones. Also is there any option or way to make a fast if its slow and how to make the files go straightly to file manager using usb or bluetooth. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks n regards to all

  • Tnx!!! qwerty!!!

  • I find this in Sony Ericsson P990 forum: "...the small arrow in the right of the screen means that the hand writing recognation is activated you can write the letters without using the keyboard..." . Was I useful?

  • Ok i'm waiting for ur replay:)

  • I don't know jet, but I'll find out :)

  • Guys there are a small marking on the right side of the screen!!! what is it????

  • With the G700 you can't, you must go for the G900 to go on the internet (wifi, wlan) I think

  • how do u use the wlan? can u connect to some hotspots? even at home with a wireless router?

  • No its not likely to lauch in pakisthan officially

  • i want to know the whole feachears of g700 and how much phone memory it have my email id is [email protected]

I have even changed the battery but the result was same. Is there any settings to be made in the mobile?

  • Ok !!! good good

  • My overall rating of this phone from 1 to 10, hm it's hard to say, I don't know. My first phone was SE K300i, and now I have this one. That is big difference. I like this phone, because I prefer good Organizer. Software is good - 10; Radio - 10, Sound (ringing tone etc.) could be better - 8, Camera - 7, but you have good guide to make panoramic photo, Organizer - 10, but you can't see time on the screen in stand by mode, and you have (it seem to me) only two phone profile: FLIGHT and your one profile. (vibrations, sound alert etc.). I'm glad to buy this phone. It seem to me like sister's iphone :)

  • I love this phone! the only thing is the battery! 2 days maximum!, maybe turning 3G off it's better but I don't find how to do that. great phone, great buy,

  • Can u give me ur overall rating of this phone ???? means is it great phone and deserve to buy ???? mr.qwerty

  • The price is about 310 �, and the pages open quickly.

  • I have this phone, and can tell you that OS isn't slow. Yes, they take some time (4 sec max.) to apply theme. If you find that your phone is slowly try in task manager closed other program.

  • G 700 rocks-Really good,sound,reception,etc camera better than LG viewty (but Viewty video is superb), Good value for Rs.14,300/-(with 1 GB memory)

  • I am not able to install gprs settings for bsnl(cellone south) in this which I was using in my K750i with the same sim.pl.help

  • First you have to install PC SUITE from CD or from SE official site. Try update your mobile software and restart mobile (first shut down mobile, then put out battery - that is real restar), after that attach USB cable into PC, and hold "C" taster on your mobile when insert USB into mobile. Your mobile will ask for what USB cable will be use : for data transfer or phone sync. Click second solution. Use in PC site conection wizard.

  • No, it takes 2 sec to start program

  • this phone has symbian OS, and all what you say I have seen on movies on youtube so I think, yes you can.

  • does the phone support mandarin writing or viewing in mandarin? if do, where to find the software? thanks for the help.

  • G700 is a Symbian phone running UIQ3 as its interface, so it's a touch screen! U can install sis software for UIQ3 on it. G700 has a PDF+ to read pdf files and QuickOffice to open Microsoft word, excel & powerpoint documents.

  • I'll buy this phone but I have some questions does this phone have Symbian OS Can I run (sis) applications & acrobat reader (PDF) and Microsoft office ?? If I can find this on this phone I'll buy it thanks

  • I'm glad i don't buy N78. In my country, its price going down real fast!, after many people find out the flaws and keep posting their experience. Now N78 is even cheaper than G700 in my country.

  • Phone Arena got a crap built of G900,.. i 've read somewhere else, many user forums. It's not that scary. :) .. Personally, i trust the real users' problems on forums as they'r using the final products.

  • I don't know what to buy? G700 or G900! I like both phones, the G900 is nicer, not just the specs but also the looks of it. G700 is cheaper, not so nice color, camara don't intrest me, it must have a camara, but not that good, just normal. if you check phonearena, the review of the G900 , it scares me. please take a look and tell me what do you think?

  • i transfered a few media files... like sound clips n pictures thru bluetooth but i am unable to transfer them in my pc. they dont exist in any of the folders! wht shd i do?

  • where can i find trusted programs for my G700 as dictionary & others ?

  • yes you can =)

  • wooooooooooooooooooooooowhat a good phone

  • Thanks Krazzy, i'll give a try

  • It also comes in grey

  • best phone g700 or c702

  • Of course it can receive from any Bluetooth enabled device, whether it is a phone, PDA or PC and from any manufacturer.

  • Can anyone tell me whether the G700 recieves files by bluetooth from any other mobile as nokia & others or only from sonyericsson phones ? plz i want the answer 4 this question quickly

  • i just bought a new G700. can i update the software of it at any sony ericsson service centers?

  • Another thing I'd like to tell everybody here is that if you bought a new G700 and the Notes app does not work (as it was in my case), then just Master Reset the phone from the Settings and everything will be all right. Also remember that when you Exit an app (by clicking on the arrow on the upper-right corner) the app does not close and tends to run in the background. To close the app permanently you'll have to go to the Task Manager and End the app from there. Otherwise all the apps will pile up and eat the RAM.

  • Initially the battery will run out quickly. But after a few charge-discharge cycles your phone can comfortably go through at least two days of usage before running out of power.

  • The UI of G700 really is slow, especially compared to the newer S60 phones like N82, etc. I myself have an 5700 too and the 5700 feels much faster. It does tends to hand once in a while. Maybe a few more firmware upgrades might solve the problem. As for the sound quality, it is very good. But the supplied headphones are very poor quality and you'll need to get the headphones supplied with the Walkman phones (HPM-70) to get good sound out of the G700. As for the camera, I found it to be of decent quality, especially in daylight. Even in dark it is not that bad as it does have an LED flash. The camera is not as good as the N73 or the K810i though.

  • I bought this phone 2 days ago , it is a great one. But, my battery charge runs out quickly . Is it normal ? please answer me .

  • hi i have information G700 is support spycall but somebody told me spycall is not working in G700 and no one is install spy call in G700

  • hi prdeep i have also information G700 is support spycall but somebody told me spycall is not working in G700 and no one is install spy call in G700

  • go to control panel settings and then display u hav an option thre turnit off

  • In G700 when an animated image is set as wallpaper, it stops moving, just like in Nokia S60 phones. You can however set it as the screen saver.

  • can the G700 support animated wallpaper like other SE phones?

  • @pradeep Push email works just like regular SMS. In standard 'pull' type email, the email client constantly connects to the email server at preset intervals to check whether any new emails have arrived and then downloads them if they have. But in push email whenever an email arrives on the email server, the email is 'pushed' straight to the phone, just like SMS. This way you get your emails quicker and also save some GPRS bandwidth since the mail client does not have to constantly check with the server.

  • Can you please say how to turn the transition off.

  • pls clear my doubt what is push mail how it works.

  • yes,it support b'coz the mobile is symbian os u have to install the spycall software.

  • While entering text in Handwriting recognition mode, change the language to Latin. That'll let you write in English characters.

  • this isn't c series...

  • Hi, I bought this Phone in Delhi one week back for. Its a great phone. Sleek phone with all the features. Sound quality is also very good matching exactly walkman phones. The negative point is , package comes with very bogus earphones. I had to buy additional HPM-82 headset for this and sound was great. But in playlist I am unable to search a particular song from name or anyother keyword. Phone ringing is pretty loud. However I am still struglling in getting my hadwriting recognition to convert into english. right now it is being converted into some arabic characters. Not sure how to do this. can anyone help on this? Overall its a very nice phone with a lot of options in it.

  • hi i want to know that sony G700 is support spy call software plz tell me

  • does g700 has cybershot

  • Help, I am having this problem and I am unable to troubleshoot! Couldn't find anything from the Sony Ericsson website and couldn't get through the toll-free line as it's now after office hours. What happened was, I forwarded a contact number to my brother by SMS who told me he received some gibberish message. The next thing I knew, the hp kept switching off by itself and said it is restarting to improve performance.

  • @phonesearch does this g700 and g900 both have a QWERTY option in the screen when you want to create a new message? in that case you have also the option to use the stylus in creating a message... Yes� G700 has QWERTY option when you want to create a new message. It also has handwriting recognition feature. So you can very well use stylus to write message and type using QWERTY.

  • "Night mode" is only available with video recording mode. Anyway with flash pictures came up good even in dark. So I am happy.

  • The G900 dan G700 both are Great phone!!

  • thks for yr reply but any of u have probs with the touch screen? my just did not worked properly so sold this phone. anyway, good to know that many love this phone and maybe i am 1 of those unlucky ones? lol!

  • this phone nice.camera good music loud...i like this phone!!!!!!

  • this phone nice....

  • if u experiencing slow performance with this phone u should turn the transition off and the phone will be much faster.

  • there's no really significant difference about n82 and g700 battery life... plus some people don't really need n82 feature advantage, which mean g700 price is better.

  • I bought and used this phone for about a week and I decided to give up. Battery life sucks, very slow response OS and I don't know about others but my touch screen is crap. In the end I went to buy a Nokia N82 and traded this SE G700 and I am now happy again.

  • this phone very nice and good function,u all can get it at 'BLUE CUBE OUTLET' in malaysia....Get now!!!!!!!!!

  • it's quality worth the price.

  • I am loving this phone but I have just one query. the g700 user manual says that the phone has a night mode option....but sadly I can not find it..can someone tell me where to find night mode option in camera? thanks....

  • OK guys.. I got this mobile in Bangalore. And its my 4th day I am using it... It is a great phone... Yeah one word "GREAT" nothing less than that! All feature of Cyber shot as well as Walkman phone... Of course it lacks the shortcut dedicated button for music as in the walkman series... but sound quality is no lesser than walkman series... I was looking for a mobile with touch screen, good cam, and good music... and this mobile was like made just for that... And Ya... I got it in Bangalore.. But my mobile is not of "silk bronze" color its in cool "coco brown" color.. Looks really cool. I did not want that silk bronze anyway... :) But wait.. the headphones are not the one like in walkman series ... its more like ordinary headphones...:( But if you can bear with those then go ahead and enjoy all the feature of walkman (Mega Bass, equalizer) and everything. Walkman series headphones are compatible with this phone.. So if you don�t mind spending extra bucks and buy those headphones then it can't be better than that... This 3g phone has all the features of cybershot (3.2 MP)..Image stabilization, red eye reduction.. Name it you get it...:) And ya.. battery backup.. I am charging my mobile every alternate day..!!! And yeah.. it comes with 1GB memory card..:) What else you need???!!!! Cost in Bangalore 15700 INR.

  • The G700 has a 3.2 mp fixed focus camera..but I've had the phone for some time now and even though it lacks AF. the software compensates and the pictures are good enough. :)

  • this phone is one of the best phones out there. Value for money. It has the walkman player which is almost similar to walkman player 3 of the W960. Sound quality is great and the external speaker is LOUD! :)

  • There are no profiles in this phone. None of the UIQ3 phones have profiles.

  • can you please tell me the name of that application? thanks

  • G700 currently is a stable and user friendly hp compare to p1i/p900/p910/p990. battery will last around 2-4 days depending how u use it. backlight is 1 of the factors that affect the battery life as well. cheers

  • G700 is a symbian hp thus there is no profile setting on this hp. so far. only hp running on java technology have the profile setting.

  • Actually, it's not that important. Whether it has it or not because recently, I've seen an application that you can install to this phone to scan business cards

  • What pixels do you mean? Do you mean, the resolution when taking photos? It's in the camera settings, just look for it... Also, if I'm correct, could you tell me a nice reason why did you bought this phone cause I'm totally freak out whether I'll buy this phone or Samsung i450 because both phones are awesome...

  • copy of Nokia 6300

  • This phone have the mega bass equlizer

  • i got g700 but i m not able to change the pixel of photos. can any one guide me how to change the pixels.

  • were is profile situated.or is there any say caller function in this phone

  • can anyone tell me if this phone has features like the W-series? i'm a music lover and i love w-series because of its mega-bass equalizer. please reply ASAP... thanks

  • does the camera of the G700 have auto focus , it doesnt mean that because its 3.2 MP it have auto focus , the W890 camera is 3.2 MP but no auto focus . i have nokia E61i but am looking to change it , am one of the biggest fans of sony ericsson where u can find the best sound and camera . :( but there windows mobile phone not relesed yet .

  • @Rumi Thanks for replying. I am looking to get a G700 or G900 depending on the money I can save. How is the G700 in terms of usability?

  • G 900 has business card scanner... and p1i has also...

  • G 700i has not business card scanner...but its great phone...

  • Can anyone please tell me whether the G700 has a business card scanner?

  • I;m using this phone about a month and its a good phone, small and very powerfull for a officer like me. I can received my mail every where including the push mail for gmail. The bad about this phone is, the batt is not that good. by the mid day, the batt already left 25%. If anybody had a same prob like me about the batt usage? Thks

  • no there isnt.. only one color only

  • yes i think its is suitable for teens because its not too much of a "Business" phone.. it has an organizer which is good for school or just daily planner.. i got one for my cousin too

  • do you think G700 is suitable for teenagers?

  • is tis a touch screen? and wat is the video recording resolution? Qcif? Cif? Qvga? Vga? 15fps? or 30fps?

  • t9 is a writting opetion u when sending a tect it works the word out for u i think its a pain in the ass thou dont get me worng sony ericsson phones are cool to use i have had 28 diffrent models and will carry on buying the new ones when they come out i know now the g700 is old but who cares its new too me and the country i live in

  • I have a question. Does this fone have that option when you can lock with a code every folder separately, like Samsungs do??? I am planing to biy this fone so if anyone have anything to add, please write it i want to find every flaw of this fone Thank you P.S. Sorry if my english is incorrect, it's a bithard for me.

  • initially, i am planning to buy P1i. but it made me think twice after seeing G700. can anyone justify why it is worth buying G700 than P1i or the other way around? will appreciate it.. :)

  • can i ask what is T9...sorry if i ask stupid question cause im new in phone market...now involve in phone business....alot of feature and items i do not noe...

  • all phones have t9 (besides the ones from centuries ago)

  • Hi, does anyone know if it has T9?

  • does anyone know whether or not this phone can play .pdf files by inputting the file from your computer to the phone? thnx

  • Why n78, go for n82.

  • you will regret it, just like my cousin is doing

  • Lol,its more of a multimedia device,so us teens can use it as well,but i suggest going for a NOKIA N78.
