Sony Ericsson K610 - User Reviews

  • Use, Sony Ericsson FastPort to 3.5mm Jack adapter cable, to use your normal type 3.5mm Jack headphones/earphones.

  • Rigkee - just listen music from the speaker. Or you have to find old SonyEricsson headphones.

  • hi! i just want to know, is there available firmware or new software for my sony ericsson k610i??can i upgrade my phone to the latest firmware??

  • Any one to me how to download java software

  • Update: Decided for 1st time to totally dissect K610i tt dropped (need 6star screw driver), started fiddling w all the electronic bits on circuit board then suddenly phone returned to life (began w battery low signal (10red flashes on top))... now phone working as normal for the last 3 days, happy +++ about that, happy cos Li-polymer battery in phone still lasts 5 days/charge after 6 yrs of use!

  • Ya, phone just died after last drop after 6 yrs of use (bought Nov2006), strange thing is that the charger being used now is the 3rd after 2 replacements over this time. Guy @ svc ctr says tt battery life is prolonged if battery is charged only after being FULLY discharged (charge at

  • 6yr old K610i phone, knocked multiple times previously, but survived. But the last time, worked a very short while then went on strike after camera button was applied. From then on, will only show persistent bright white screen, will not fully start up, no red/ green blinking (on light), unable to link w computer etc. Called svc ctr n they said must send down to Bishan Junction 8 for assessment, will see how/ what to do given that I stay pretty far away...

  • does this phone support viber or whatsapp? pls answer quick. and if it support, which should I download?

  • probably the most durable phone i ever had. dropped it more than a dozen times and still worked well. my sister's k610i, she dropped it inside the toilet bowl, just let it dry and still worked. camera is good for its class. although i hate sony's memory cards (too expensive). too bad i lost mine. would be using it until now if i still have it.

  • Lost my first one, bought another one. Loved this phone.

  • best phone i ever had

  • when finish that handphone?I Need now

  • K610i the best of the best mobile phone i've ever got, everithing you need, you can do with it

  • got it as a persent in 2006 for my father, its the most capabel n dependerbel phone iw got,still workin,now its 6 n half years old AWSM PHN

  • Lithium Polymer battery is better? Haha, discovered why my K610i (bought late2006, reg use) battery still lasts at least 4-5days/charge (min use) whilst my cheap LG LP105 (Bought early2009, hardly used)recently started to last only about 20hrs/full charge- the KP105 came with a Li-ion battery whilst the K6101 comes with a Li-polymer battery. According to 'Lithium Polymer (Lipo) Battery Guide' , Li-Po batteries are more advanced than Li-ion batteries although some differences between Li-ion and LiPo on various sites are conflicting.

  • such exellent phone to use it. i want another fresh piece where should i get?

  • been using this since 2007 and still ok (5yrs already). though battery life is shorter, but still very usable and got no problem at all. except that it has no WLAN.

  • my own k610 has been stolen and i want to buy another one please where do i get it?

  • Very dependable and tough phone, been using it since 2006! Fell a few times already but still works perfectly

  • ive been using this for a very loooong time. the phone is great for a java phone (its really tough, it fell several times and still OK!). multitasking is good. it lets you minimize apps (activity menu is the best. but the other button in the left keys is useless. i dont even know what is it for). but it has problem loading newer apps like ucweb 7.xx ... thats why im stuck with the old ucweb 7.0.0. other than that its good since i can still use opera mini 6.5 and the 4.2 (configuring internet conn. is easy. ip and port is editable like symbians. in contrast to nokia that needs a prov file). the sound quality is great. the camera is... well frankly, it is not that great but it is ok since i dont use this feature that much. gaming is good (though the screen size is one of the smallest now). i can play galaxy on fire 2, 3d games and some emulated pokemon roms seamlessly. battery is not that great. it drains out in 4 hrs continued internet use on GSM mode (and 3hrs 3G) , around 8 hrs for gaming alone and a day with very light use. hmm...problems... i had it reprogrammed once when i had this problem of not turning on with flashing red light... and it started turning off by itself. the solution is to put a piece of paper between the back cover and the battery and voila! its fixed.... now i got an android phone and still using this for texting... if you want to buy this phone... its great!... anyway did i tell you all that it can be crossflashed to w660i?...

  • @aisen12 it works fine if you are close to a 3g transmitter station and not too many people around you doing the same with their mobile. That is typical for all mobile phones, probably nothing wrong with this phone.

  • asking just to know,,,downloading application etc. throw mobile internet can harm with my device?

  • it is really usefull but i have something to say iwant to know the configuration of 3g internet plz help me

  • Really nice to handle this phone battery back up is amazing in this. i think this is the best model in sony for battery back up

  • Yup! You are right..your network connection is too slow, try to select 3g network there u can experience high speed connection and u could stream high and quality videos.

  • The files can be save booth phone memory user and memory stick micro(memory card).

  • Only the backlight of the screen can be adjust. Just go to ur phone's settings and select Display.,there u can adjust the brightness of ur phone's display.

  • ..amazing phone..very fast browsing when using 3g network and comfortable to carry.

  • It has 2 light levels for the screen and no levels for keypad. The light is blue. But the main issue is that it has the speaker for the ringtone on the backside and you can't hear the ring if you put the phone on a desk or even worst on a fluffy surface.

  • Is this phone has an adjust in its screen and keypad backlight display? Please answer me.

  • i have 87 games installed in this phone and all of them runs nicely on this phone. And the speaker is crystal clear too. But the doubled files bug is cant be repaired. But thats no problem, tough. But i have no idea why when i was watching streaming video on youtube mobile, the video looks like watching poops with sound. Maybe just my slow connection caused this one. This phone's memory card can be expanded up to 2 gigs.

  • i bought this phone in 2007, but still, this phone's performance is really good. Especially when playing 3D java games the FPS is relatively good, it has 3g network and the internet connection is even faster using the opera mini 5.1. And, it's drop-proof! I dropped my phone like a million times, and until now, it still works perfectly. I love this phone and i will replace it with the freaking xperia x10 soon. You won't regret buying this phone. For real.

  • Mybad! This phone has no fm really? Anyway im just trying to canvas and view its feature because i will be buying phone by next 2 months. May i ask something if this phone can download java files like games, ebook, etc that could save both phone and memory card? However, phone like symbian can save the java files in the memory card. How about this unit? Could it be saved only in the phone memory, or it could also be saved in the memory card?

  • One of the best phones ever built by SE. Unfortunately this model could not beat the market. I have this phone since 2006 and also have latest W995. But K610i let me not to replace it. Business phone at its smallest size. Rugged & robust. Battery is great even in 3G. No manufacturer can make a phone like these. Only drawback is no FM.

  • great phone yeah!!

  • im sure a lot of us K610 users experience the same prob of this phone switching by itself...all u have to do is put 2 coats of sticky tape on the back portion of ur battery as well as the sim card...so far, it worked perfctly..never had switching off by itself!

  • i had the same prob....heres wat u should do... 1. move the file to phone memory 2. and move it again to memory card... 3. if "operation failed" appears, just reinsert the memory card.. it works! no doubling of files!

  • What's the RAM size of this phone? and... can i increase the size of it?

  • I've been using this phone for 3 years now.It's a funtastic Phone.

  • i bought this phone few year ago and still have it, great phone, but now i nead to change it because not long time ago i problems with network appeared,

  • how did you do that?? texting for free?

  • the best phone that i ever had.. i've been using this phone for more than 3years now & i never encounter any problem..i can store more that 200songs & more than 10kinds of games & lot of themes... my friend throw my phone in the pool 3x & until now it works... what a nice phone

  • some of the games that you have tried to download is not compatible w/ the software that you have thats why it wont work when you try to play the game...you need to download some games w/c have a java on it.

  • hy.i have this phone from last month but i can tell you guys it.s a great phone.i used until now only nokia phones,but i.ve changed my mind.for those ho have restarted problem or if the phone still turn off tride to see if the contacts betwine phone and battery are clear.i putted a piece of papper down battery to stop moving forward and backword battery.i hope this will help someone to fix his problem with turning off the phone himself

  • no until it supports flash themes.... it will be the greatest K-clan from SE mobiles phone

  • Reply to akavitalis When ever you launch ur game and if the operation fail that means you have so many powerful things on your memory stick, switch off the phone and on it again then exercise a little patience or just remove the memory stick and insert it again wait for a while then launch your game it will work. But if you have game that is too powerful due to the game memory if you launch it the memory stick might fail and all other things on the memory stick will not appear, off the phone wait for 2 minuit and on it again then move the game from memory stick to phone memory then launck it and it will work perfect

  • i miss this phone coz it was lost..huhu...this is the best phone i ever had...if it has a radio and a double flash for camera,"this is the perfect phone"!!

  • very nice price but after spending time to go then another price and also no micro sd and no handfree. just lies. other lies also expected about original charger or cover case. very ugly shop. thanks

  • this phone is good, really good but i have one problem with it. while making calls it swithes off itself and sometimes if you have received a call it does the same thing. what could be the problem and may someone please give me some advise. thank you

  • theres an available charger that u can use ur headset while the is charging,the charger of k810i

  • this fone is tough the battery is good the sound is superb. i have this fone 4 more than 3 yrs,i charge the battery once in a week only,the problem is where can i buy the fone housing,the original one,

  • one thing is really bad abt this phone that u can either charge ur fone or use the headphone....but its a gud fone...but i'm havin probs wid my battery...u can't rewind while playback..video quality is also gud

  • its nycz youcan use opera mini on it and it can run with no hang ii mean its not hangin not unlike nokia ajeje

  • This phone is very tough and it does a bit of everything- It lasted 2 years for me serving as a main mobile with also over 600 audio tracks on it. The battery life is good. Because it's an older phone ,the camera wasn't superb but if you want a phone that can reproduce music well , sounds good on a call and doesn't have any poorly manufactured buttons-it's worth using as one to rely on. Perhaps not for the fashion/trendy type

  • Awesome little phone-the speaker is the clearest on speaker phone and for music is the loudestspeaker avaiable pretty clear -worth the purchase.

  • update your phone by installing updated services in your nearest sony ericssons service center thank you

  • wonderful!!!! what a hand sets. its seaker is very cleare adn high. no restart problem. i use it from 1 year.

  • Just remove your battery,put it again,turn on your phone.if problem persist charge your battery.K610i multitasking is the best

  • is this a good phone?

  • hahaha very funny smart arse!!! i think i found it its up your you know what!!!

  • Can someone help? my k610i won't turn on, just getting red light flashing. was working great before this.

  • great fone! iv been usingthis handset for almost a year. never had any prob with it!

  • Great Phone...been using it for 3 years now. Upgraded memory to 4GB and bought a MEX-60 Flash great photos for a 2MP can expect better from a Phone. Most astonishing feature I can tape all Voice calls. Would have been great if Video calls could be recorded. Issues: 1) is that the Handfree bluetooth won't pickup automatically on incoming call as my old Nokia 7110 2) No fast forward or rewind when listening to playback. Greatest issue !!! I am having a Court case to have recorded someone making promisses and never honored them when I disclosed the recording to his management.

  • This phone is great,I don't give a damn about any other phone,I have used it for exactly one year today.It gets mad at me sometimes,but we always make up( i.e it spoils and repairs itself in a way I can't understand).anyone who possesses it won't easily 4get its excellent services.Its always @ your service.

  • your speaker is in your head la hahahhaa

  • you wont be able to buy which is new.

  • hi has anyone had problems with the talking speaker? peaple keep on telling me they cant hear me loud when i speak to them. does anyone know where the speaker is? ive opened the phone and cant spot it anywhere

  • i bought it.. will tell feedback for that later

  • that phone has a Great Sounds..!!

  • When i change my phone with new battery,that problems still happen

  • I want to ask question about this phone,why recently when i charge its battery,the red light above it blinking,usual it not happen like that,only turn on until it showing green,the consequence is my phone can't be started since that,i want to know either the battery already broken off or the phone itself

  • Had phone for 18 months and never had major issue. Ocasionally would not charge properly but put that down to poor connection of charger. Not great for gadgets but terific at what it did do, make and receive calls and messages. Phone had quite a bit of hammer and is now 3 years old as passed to my daughter when I upgraded. Stills works as good as new but looks tatty.

  • I want to buy it..

  • hi u all, like a lot of the current or ex users, ive been using this phone for 3 years and i will soon get another phone( the one im using is still good and freezes like once in a few months). to mamadun: i recomand that you stick for opera mini 4.2 for now coz the version 5 is damn bad for this phone(i even dowloaded the suppozed version suitable for the screen). version 4.2 is really good. to williams: who really uses radio on the mobile phone. the only time my friends use radio on a mobile phone is to hear the name of the laureates each year lol to rehan: i dunno if by wireless you mean wifi. please elaborate on that. to lee: i once had this problem and it was because the fastport had "moisissure" which i suppose appeared since im in a tropical island(sorry cant remember the english name for that). anyway, try to remove the battery. normally, the red light should be switched off. insert the barttery and try to charge. if its to no avail go to see a technician(who will probably flash your mobile phone) to kui: this is a really good phone. i dunno if youve read the opinions but most of them are favorable and i appreciate that. people are giving true facts about the phone and not like for the high end phones where other brands fans just say senseless things or make comments abouts unimportant things with their common " EPIC FAIL" comments lol

  • Who can help ?

  • im a new user....is diz good phone?

  • im using this phone for almost 3 yrs. and ive got the same problem.the technician just reformat my phone and it works.

I was so devastated but when I dried it with towel and connected it to the battery charger for a whole night, it went back to its full capacity and has even served another year.

  • man i guess u need to try a SE and see urself that most SE k610 is better to Nokia 6680. I had nokia 6680 2years ago it was good and i love it i took alot of nice pics and i used the 3g video call but i got tired of it. i guess i needed a 2pixel camera phone and smaller size and better features that u alwys can fine in the SE. so i got this SE k610 last week. its cool. however, im still a big fan of Nokia Symbiam phones becus of applications. Just get a SE frm ur friend and test if u do like it. Thanks [email protected]

  • i'm opt to change for this phone soon but i'm still in doubt. i'm using nokia 6680, will it be worth changing? comments please. first, i'll be using flash though this one has a 2 megapixel, 2nd 6680 is a smartphone and i don't know the limitations of this one, 3rd memory stick micro is pretty pricy...

  • if i press the on botton there's no power on it, u can see the red light"blinking" with my battery ther's no problem on it...can you help me?

  • Up to 2GB but some people say it supports up to 4GB What I really like about this phone is that the pictures, taken with this phone, reaches up to 630KB which means more details compared to ordinary 2mp phones which only reaches up to 300KB

  • can i ask kng up to wat giga ang pde ni2ng magamit ung capacity ba.. txt me 09216582675.

  • hey can u change dis cells casing /?

  • Maximize the equalizer presets. Trust me it will be louder although sometimes the higher the volume and equalizer, the more noise it produces. When it is in maximum, it is louder than N91, Omnia, N70, Motorola Razor V8 and nokia 5000 I really like this phone. In fact, I'm using my phone's browser in replying to your post.

  • faar i hate this phone it is so ... and it is not a loud phone ...

  • Fair enough. I'm kinda old school so I barely use any of its features ever, but what I like is that it's durable. Well, not as durable as my old siemens a55, but still tough enough to withstand my way of treating phones :)

  • you have to change microphone

  • it is great i have 3 in my house and would not change it ever until it dies

  • under the cover check on th sides

  • i don't think that that phone is worth the price of 400 USD. its firmware is still in beta version and it freezes quite often. it has not got a good power management and has a poor 2mp camera! i prefer the S.E K750 to it!

  • I have difficulties in downloading free games.

  • This phone is great.serves me as a pocket pc and a phone i PIMPED it to the maximum.i can do anything with it.its great!!!

  • Im using this phone for 2 years now,and i dont have anything to complain about it!!! Picture quality is very good,only when there is enough light. Loudspeeker is loud as nokia 6233(my mother has 6233,trust me). I am going to use it until it fells apart,this means for another two years XD

  • where is the memory slot that is where to put memory card

  • the phone is great! in alll ways!

Quality's Almost The Same And Saves Space On Disk... Like 1 : 4...!!! Coz rm Format song is Hardly 600KB And Mp3 is 4MB... Thats a Quite Difference..!!! ChiLLLLLLLLL [email protected]

  • is it true that the sony ericsson k610i suffers from freezes please reply soon. jarrad.

  • yes.. in silent mode

  • Can the shutter sound be turned off ?

  • It seems odd that only Mp3 files are playing on your phone. In my phone, I have MIDI,M4a,wma and Mp3 files and they are working great. I haven't tried AAC format but just convert the files or you could download a software but I think, it would be hard.

  • hi guys...i have this k610i and it's working great... just want to ask you guys on how can I play an AAC type of file???? I cannot play it. Only mp3 tones are playing on my phone... help please. Thanks.

  • Hi to all K610i users! It's true that this phone is a sure 3G choice and I recommend it by the way this comment was made using my phone and it's just fun and easy. Cheers..:-)

  • im using my phone for about 1 yr and it works well,until i connect it to pc and it turns on and off why this happened?what will i do?

  • i had this phone almost 2 years ago n i damn sure miss it, its very gr8 phone :(

  • I've had my phone now for about a week, and I'm quite happy with it. The only thing that I have a problem with is the PC Remote Control feature. I can't get it to work. Do any of you know where one can find help? The SE site is very quiet about it.

  • im using the since last four months.there is problem in keypad,the right is not working. i have tried lot but it is still not working. so kindly suggest me proper solution.

  • I got this phone as a cheap pay as you go - I was fed up with the MDA I had on contract. The phone is easy to use, reliable and has a fantastic battery life (better than my new K850i). It isn't the most feature filled phone, but it does the basics and it's got 3G for the internet. If you're looking for a reliable, easy to use phone with a long lasting battery I would strongly recommend this phone.

  • I really like this phone... 1.Nice camera(If you know how to use it) 2.Loud Speaker(Except when in a noisy environment) 3.Great Applications(E.g. Dictionary, Doc Viewer and Periodic Table) 4.Great internet connection(Now I have a pocket encyclopedia, thanks to wikipedia and I can now see/make emails without using my pc and most of all its FREE!) Just some downside.... 1. No FM radio 2. No Flash 3. Small screen 4. No light Sensor 5. The paint removes quickly( Maybe its just me because I frequently scratch my phone)

  • great phone. have it 4 more than 2 years now, without any problem. i really like the battery, it runs 4ever :D

  • I try and i try, but i cannot find how to turn on the key backlight?

  • It's been 2 years since i used K610i, during 2 years i never encountered problems until such time my charger was broken due to accident. Almost six months now since i order a new charger but until now my order not yet arrived. I can't use my cp now, huhuhu. Help!!!

  • i have this phone for over a year and a half now. it has pretty much everything you need in a mobile phone: 2mp camera [the photos look just ok both in the phone and in the computer], it comes with enough memory for 25 compressed mp3s, games, internet [no wifi though..] and 3g. it also comes with a 64mb card, but you cand replace it with a 1-2gb, if you feel you need more. the battery was never a problem, listening to music, talking, playing or making photos it lasted around 2-3 days, but with average use it lasts over a week. i honestly recommend it, it's awesome.

  • halo!!! see d feature urself la!!! tis phone got x fm la... i used it about 1 month ady...

  • It's nice phone , i already have this phone for over than 1yrs but the problem after 1yrs used is the phone suddenly will be off and sometime the ring will off, so I change this phone to K630 , it's a better phone w/ faster internet access , camera, and megabass sound.

  • -=> SE K610i RoCkS!

  • love it...

  • hi. how are you? can you tell me what's the applicationto do that? kindy email me. [email protected] tnx!!

  • Officially the K610i supports memmory cards of 1 GB. But I've heard that it also supports 2GB, although then it works slower. Can someone tell me if he has tested a 2GB memmory on this phone, and if so, how it works?

  • Hey Guys! To the users of this phone which includes me, I have installed a java application that can read ms word and excel which is a very nice application. Believe me, when I use it, I feel my K610i is a smart phone... If you also want it, just reply to this post.

  • i had this phone for three months now, and i'am satisfied with it. i am also a techno-geek. so for those hunters there i recommend the SE K610i! tnx

  • this is one of the best fones u could very buy. k610 is just a super fone it just dose wat u want it to do and never acts up.

  • dear kindly let me know about the way to upgrade to 4gb memory?... [email protected]

  • pretty good. slim and handy. can be upgraded to 4gig of memory and video is outstanding. i convert all videos to psp and quality is superb. this phone offers a lot of choices. i actually got away with free internet with this baby. one of the best out there.

  • no

  • i had just bought this red colour k610i its not bad!Good!

  • After 1 year, still in primary use. +New from SUN disc Memory Card 4GB M2 for k610i. Who needs radio when you can have 1000 of MP3's. Although poor video quality, still ONE of the best SE phones.

  • this phone was given to me by a friend.. it has a 64mb M2.. i jus wanna ask if it can functional normally with a 2Gig M2? will it hang up or something? if it will..can anyone recommend me the highest M2 compatible with it..1gig maybe..or 512mb..

  • k610= 72 polyphonic k530= 40 polyphonic the best quality of sound and unique color

  • Been using K610 for about 1 year+++. Everything about the phone is great except it does not have radio, flash feature and the paint of the phone came off. This phone can save lots of msgs too. I juz bought Nokia 5610 n by comparing 5610 wif K610, 5610 really sucks althought it have a lot of feature which k610 does not have. Well Done SE. Ur phone is much more stable compare to your competitor, Nokia.

  • Guys instead of this phone buy K530,which is equipped with same feature along with RDS radio and many more , K530 is also cheaper than K610.don't miss it.

  • The cover of it or its housing "that is what we call it in our country" is changeable. I have not tried it but I've seen it being sold at a store.

  • By the way, I had read a question regarding about its messages. The messages of the K610i is automatically stored in the inbox of course. And probably it can hold a hundred or more messages but you can also save the messages on the templates or in the sim cards memory, in case you just had. But remember that it can only store a few messages in this way but in this case I learned a way of how to store a lot more messages. Step 1 Copy the text you want. Step 2 Write a new message and paste the texts. Step 3 Exit and save the message. That's it. The message you had made will be save in the Drafts. Trust me, the capacity of the messages here are a lot higher than in the inbox, templates or saved messages category. In my phone I, had 369 messages in the Drafts.

  • For the people that are having doubts about whether they will purchase this phone, I just like to say that this phone may not be that so amazing for instance, it doesn't have an exotic fm transmitter or what so ever but it does its job very well. One downside of it, is that it has a low video resolution but that's alright for me because I am not a video enthusiast so If you don't prefer capturing videos on your phone, why not try this one?

  • Brilliant Mobile does everything for you and not to mention the 3G network on it works superbly. WIKEDDDD MOBILEEEE

  • The phone is fantastic.i enjoy every bit of the phone.

  • i love the phone because of the 3g network,but no infra-red.anyway keep the flag flying sony ericsson.

  • it will be save in your phoone memory

  • how many messages can it hold and where does it save them, phone, memory stick? i like lots of messages

  • for me the camera works just fine. bad thing is that it doesn't have autofocus. that's what i don't like. but overall, this phone is the best...

  • I agree, the camera is not that good although it's 2MP. Also, it has no FM Radio.

  • It is a one of best phone at this price & size , as well as options , Only radio option is not added , Good job from sonye tram

  • im in the construction i`ve had this phone for over 1 year -phone switches off on its own -buttons and cover paint came off -loses lots of recpetion (im in the city) good phone but shame about those little important things :P

  • i had this phone 1 year na, and i have no problem using it. it's nice! i love k610i!!!

  • i had this phone 2 months, and i have no problems using it. its nice! even if it has no flash. trust me I'm a techno-geek.

  • ive been using se k610i for more than a year..it has great features considering its affordable price..nice picture with its 2megapixel except it doesnt have auto focus..,no radio but u can install lots of music if u got high m2 card..i like its 3g capability since i can browse internet fast..and u can install third party application like operamini and chat messengers.,games..downloads fast..and u can watch tv..u can also publish pictures in seconds using the send to blog feature..but i did a terrible mistake few days ago..when i did the search update software..well it was on the menu i just click on it to find out if i can make it perform better but after installing their software well it worked a bit then i decided to take out battery after that it wont work anymore..i just got a red light blinking on top portion..but it wont turn on..i tried charging but it wont charge also...ive tried to let an authorize service center to see it but they charge too high for the repair since they said software upgrade failed so they must do replacement on some part i think....but i think it just wasnt compatible with the software upgrade that installed.....i hope sonyericson wont post updates thats not compatible with some of their phones...any one who can help ne resolve this pls try to post and ill read on it later..tnx

  • i love this phone!!! this is the best phone ever!

  • I have been using the Sony Ericsson K610i Modle since february 2007, I found it the most smartest and smallest 3G mobile phone I have ever used,in terms of weight,price, and every day use. I recommend the K610i to those who call themselves HI TECH people and Technology is an important part of their life. For any question about this mobile contact me. Bass

  • jeff koech ; There is no built-in flash. but the attachable flash MXE-60 is superb ! I use one with my K618. Photos are bright even if taken in complete darkness.

  • how can i transfer files from pc to my sony ericsson phone through usb?

  • The phone does not pretend to be fancy but is a really good phone. because of its memory size and support for java I have been able to make it work close to a fancy pda all for free Games, movies,apps,music. Even with its in the box features you get quite a lot, calender (can sync with outlook)

  • how can i transfer photos from my file to my pc using usb cable?..

  • This phone is great, only problem is that you can't install any java apps...

  • Had one. Waste of $

  • This phone is very very good. I love it. Its a must have.

  • thanks 4 your reply mangkiulun...

  • This Hp for me very cool..but,i facing a problem on its B.Tooth..its hard to detect by the others..need to put it closer with the sender..why ye..?

  • I'm still using this phone till now and my rating is 9/10 ... It's so COOL but it doesn't have RADIO ..

  • the front cam s for video call only, but u can take picture on screen during vidoe calling. yes the nav buton erode quickly and the casing too. i change mine to k610im but in some country the telcos do not support I-MODE so iMMS unavailable and browsing is regularly interrupted by link failure. better stick with k610i

  • my k610i have a problem with the front camera, so i can't use my 3g, n it took me 90 days to get it back from it service center in indonesia

  • Can anyone please please tell me how to use the secondary camera(the one next to the screen) to take pictures? thanks..

  • The navi. pad is actually plastic.. the silver paint on mine scratched of really quick in just a few days and the blue light is clearly seen glowing through gaps in the paint in low light.. the pictures that the camera takes is only good to look at on the phone.. put it onto pc and its very very ugly...

  • Excelent simple phone, great display, fast fast fast, superb battery life, as usual, sony's are great, tell the people at Moto to take a break and see what people really like ...

  • It's a good phone. I like it so much! But how can i take pictures using the secondary camera?can anyone tell me?thanks

  • yes it have a usb port.i like the software to connect this mobile on pc so easy so fast good work SE.

  • hi guys! i want to ask u all,can this phone take a picture using 3G or not???if yes,how to take it???reply me soon as possible..tq..

  • hey can any1 justconfirm 4 me that this phone has a usb port to hook a cable to my pc? thanks

  • I have this mob. I have changed from SE W 200 it is really great... M/Player is great it is still Sony:) only what I want to add is flash and radio too... zoom is available if you press zoom buttons

  • If Mp3 comes first in your phone, then get any SonyEricsson phone such as this one. I have tried almost all brands, but SE has the best sound setting.

  • This is a terrific, down-to-Earth phone that doesn't try to be more than it is. I went from a Nokia E65 to this, and I have to say that the K610i is a much better phone to use - very responsive, keys are easy to press, and, unlike the E65, it has a camera on the front. With 3G support, using applications like Google Mail and Maps, or surfing mobile-friendly websites is a joy. This phone does everything it needs to very well, although the a flash to accompany the camera would not have been unwelcome.

  • hai -i nead hwo to lock the phone ,don t want someone open my phone. and to now how to lock folder in memory stick tell me please

  • dear Wael, dont just go speaking about the quality of the camera judging by the screen quality. the camera is 2MP (2 millions of dots per inch)and the screen is 256K colors (the screen can view exactly 262144 colors for every dot in the 176x240 TFT screen - which is by the way a high end screen). this phone is probably much reliable and has much quality than any phone nokia ever made. by the way there is no such thing as 16MP camera mobile phone.

  • I bought it some months ago and I'm really happy with it. Maybe the only things I would add is flash and focus. Thanks to that phone I gave my heart to SonyEricsson. :)

  • hi everyone!! i�m thinking to buy one of this bcause is a phone with simpli design and exelent batery time and have a camara, bt, 3G and i like a lot so you guys recomend this phone they have any problems?? K610 dont have joysitck so dont have problems with navigation keys i�m right??? who better K610 or V630 they have the same "body" but Whos better?? please help me

  • This phone is the best phone I ever had. I even got it at a very low price (for a b/n phone) at tipidcp.com (Mabuhay tipidcp!!!). My old sony ericsson K500 (which I bought at a higher price than this one during its prime) "joystick" sucks. I'll never buy another phone with a "joystick" ever!!! Compared to Nokia, due to its demand releases new models almost 2-3 times in a year. cheackout the list of their models as compared to SE... Best buy... Best Phone....

  • It is very bad quality camera (2mpixle not problem) the problem at size colour it is 256 k pixle but another camera at nokia like nokia 6120 camera 16 m pixle) note :1 m pixle = 1000 k pixle

  • the m2 is so heavy in our pocket.. hehe.. 1gb is 1,800..

  • it works great with the MXE-60 xenon flash... great focus but k750's camera is much much better..

  • i use it 4 two monthes, its great phone the only thing if se add flash to cam

  • Camera is great at day time

  • it supports memory card upto 2gb and at some places it says also 8gb

  • it supports memory card upto 2gb and at some places it says that it also supports 8gb

  • Chris, thank you for the info

  • my bf and i just bought this phone today...i was having a doubt if i really like this because it doesnt have usb port so that i could transfer my file to my usb device.also i havent buy memory card yet so that i could able to download or get a lot of stuff to save on my phone...i'm afraid that eventhough it's brand new it might hang while i'm using it but it doesnt have memory card yet...i really love taking pitures but how can i get rid of this crazy feeling that my brand new phone might hang coz i spend my 2 months salary or money just to buy this stuff..thanx a lot

  • does anybody know what the biggest memory card this phone will support is, e.g how much memory?

  • i've been using this for one year and it is great..!! i expanded the memory stick (m2) upto 1gb and its okay!! i have no negative comments to this phone. the camera is fantastic especially in daytime.. and you can balance the light controls by using the white balance.. the sound is so loud even if a huge noise is surrounding it, you can still hear it.. the 3g call is fine.. i can take pictures from it.. the internet is fast and reliable... i would recommend this !!! love it!! ^^,

  • the light above there is a light for gsm network.. observe when someone texted you.. the light there is blinking and blinking upto 10 seconds.. and its turns red when your battery is only 4%..

  • Can anyone tell me if there is a way to increase the size of the text for either caller details or texting please?

  • Since i bought this phone i can honestly say for the price UK 89.99,it is a bargain MP3 player sounds fantastic headphones supplied are not "bog standard" have good Bass for in ear headphones. 3g is very good on this phone.RSS feeds work fine.Java games are a bit boring and the camera is average.For 3g use,the battery could do with more than 900Mah capacity. Seriously think about a case for this model finish is very thin. Overall very good effort

  • gautam, eliminate K550i from your list and choose from the remaining three. Big stuffs can be downloaded by connecting phone to pc with data cable and copying files to memory card.

  • What is on the top, near the power button? Status LED, mean service light?

  • I changed so many phones.But i couldnt find the best.This is the best for me the quality of the song is perfect.I love this phone i dont have any problems with it the camera is also v.good.If you want to buy a cheap and good phone i think this is the best for that price. i love this phone bye bye

  • A reply 2 Mr. Karen.... If u need a radio, you shouldnt buy k610. If you wan2 buy k608, than I'll suggest u 2 buy k600.(coz,both of them contains same specification;just the different model means's outlook)k600 is more stylish... but in other hand, u can face problems with memory if u wanna choice k600/608; bcoz,they have only 33.6mb phone memory,no card slot.. then u can go 2 k610 which support M2 memory card;perhaps, up 2 2gb. another more important suggestion is... k610 supports walkman ear fons where,k600/608 doesnt! coz their ports r made in old version model. although,k600/608 contains MegaBass... but while using Walkman ear phones in k610 u'll certainly get much more better xperience...the sound quality & the bass both will overcome then. In my own xperience,ive used k600i for 18 months.... but having only the lack of Walkman earfon port i sold it out to my friend.... best of luck

  • I have had this phone for a full year now and must say I love it. The only thing that I am unhappy about with this phone is that there is no radio :( Frankly, I was going to replace it by a K530i because of this, but then compared the displays and decided it was not worth it. This one is much much better. So I guess I'll just stick with it for now.

  • What is there on the top of the phone, near the power button? I see something like an LED, in the pictures. Is it an indicator of the signal(service light)? Or is it just a slot for attaching a phone charm?

  • hrmmm,i guess d=this phone is quite good. but there's no radio. the sound is good! picture good! everything just fine! it is sutable for ladies! like me. i'm only 13. its great n cool! i love it. red is nice! i buy it the firts time this phone come! is about 800.00 something. i buy it last year. end of the year!

  • do u know now u can instal walkmen in k750 cause i have it installed in my ph with better sound clearity... 9820985455

  • can anybody plz help me I cant seems to play aac files on it

  • Thanks Andy, for the reply

  • Sorry.. I missed type andy with papaPAUL ^_^ One thing I like so much of this phone : It can downloads big files. I often download movie up to 30MB. Thanks to it's multitasking capability, i can still use my phone function while downloading. I can even check my Email and browsing using OperaMini while downloading. Other feature I often use is Bluetooh Remote. It is a cool feature to use K610 as Mouse replacement. It helps me when presenting my PowerPoint slides. Well... it is a common feature to other SE Bluetooth cellphone though.... SE makes good CellPhone.. if you can match it's technology ^_^

  • I'll try to answer everyone question (for the past 1 month). Yes, K610 able to zoom when taking picture (but only in VGA resolution, not 1MP or 2MP) and in video mode. Yes, it support multitask. I can run Opera Mini, Email, IM+, and writing SMS without hang or slowdown. Multitasking feature is common to nowadays SE series. Playing MP3 is very good, both in loudness and clarity. K510 is no match. K610 almost match W-series, except for MegaBass. @Skie, SE cellphone always easy to use for internet connection. You can use bluetooth and data cable. I prefer bluetooth since no driver required. @papaPAUL, K610 can almost match W-series. Use W-series earset for best experience. @Karen, K610 much better than K608. Ensure K610 latest firmware for best experience. It has affordable price and good feature, but don't ask too much for FM Radio, Flash, Autofocus, VGA/CIF video recording @30fps, etc..etc... K610 has it's own style. Use K610 with care and you'll see that K610 is powerfull enough for it's price. And ALWAYS KEEP PHONE MEMORY ABOVE 10MB. Store or install aplication in MemoryCard. Otherwise, user will experience in freezing, slowdown, ang hangs alot. Feel free to ask me. Thank you world.

  • just want to ask, can i use this unit as internet connection to my PC?

  • I like this phone exept about the photos could get improved whats the best way u guys think do download stuff on a K610?

  • no radio and picture zooming. can i get some shortcuts of k610i pls

  • been using my k610 for over a year now. i like its features so much that i don't have any plans yet of replacing it. and to think i used to keep changing phones every 3-6 months. :)

  • hmm.. i just got this phone, and the w660 was only abt 50 usd more than this... is the walkman really worth the extra? thanks in advance...

  • christmas is almost here. .

  • i lost my k608i. *sobs* however, im planning to buy a new one this month. can anyone tell me which fone is better? k608i or k610i? ive read many comments here and most say that it turns itself off. just wondering if this fone is REALLY great.

  • My heart almost burst out. I bought this phone 2 days ago. The good point were good interface, fast 3g, 2mp cam the bad point were: no fm radio, no included earpiece, no zooming in pic, only video. Very sad experience. Less features

  • Anyone knows whether Ericsson ChatBoard CHA-10 could be used with this one?

  • Now....if only it had a radio...

  • cannot zoom in picture mode

  • is there any multitasking java phone except this phone? compare please this phone and k550i i indeed agree, this is really a fast phone for the middle range.... good choice.

  • humbly, i only look for a standard phone that can do video call, but what? after using my phone this.... its amazing, i very like it's performance on java multitasking, its big memory, and never hang!

  • does anyone know how to change the right softkey to something else or is it even possible?? help a bro out!!!

  • To esor, That mean the phone is break and need to repair or buy another new one....

  • Very good fone but it scratches easily.....

  • How is the mp3 ringing volume compared to k510? Thanks in adv

  • is this a good phone, my Birthday is soon, and my mum and dad might get me this phone, Also does it brake easy?

  • Any user of this handset; How is its ringing volume (mp3)?Is it louder than k510? Sure? Any help much appreciated

  • @joe VGA is DVD-like quality video recording. Only a few Nokia phones have this recording quality. This includes Nokia 6233, 6288, N93, and N95. Others record in low quality like QVGA, CIF or QCIF. It's hard to find phones these days with good quality video recording and camera.

  • wats VGA?

  • @Jon!! Sorry dude for that wrong information, anyway, I don't care which is the lightest 3G phone, hehehe!!! Yeah!

  • to Jon2 Oh I'm really sorry, but if you try to read the review at SE K610, you'll probably get the answer, it is only QCIF!!!! hehehe!!! really BAD!!! but i don't care, love this fone anyway!!! Yeah!

  • is any one here experience any problems with the text messaging? sometimes the text messages that i send arent recieved by my friends, or my friends recieve like like 30 minutes after i already sent the message

  • Can i use its 3g with LG KU250? pls answer me... tnx!

  • can u take pics using the 3G cam? pls. email me.. thanks!

  • @K610 lover You're terribly wrong. Lightest 3G phone in SE is the W880i! @Nix I'm not asking about the fps (frames per second) of the video recording. I'm asking if the K610 video records in VGA or CIF??

  • To Jon2 No, in N95, the video recording is 30 frame per second (fps) while in k610 itis only 15 fps! anyway it is a mid range fone, having such characteristics is not important for guy like me!! yeah!

  • Hey PETER!! how did you know that N70 is far more better than K610i?? look pal, do you have a k610?? i have both k610 and N70, AND I CAN TELL YOU THAT K610 IS MUCH BETTER THAN N70, but some features are different and k610 lacks some flash and radio, but it prove to be competitive against N70 and it is worth it's title lightest 3g fone on SE, hahahaha!!! check it in the review for info!! I love SE K610!!! !! YEAH!

  • Does the video recording in K610 in VGA like Nokia 6233, N95, and E90?

  • Please, no comparison to N70, N70 is by far, much better than SE K610i. K610i is a good cell, but it's mid-range, not high-range

  • before using this K610 i'm using W810... The differences between them is K610 is more faster (application, pics browsing etc.) than my W810. I think K610 loudspeaker it a little bit louder than W810. I'm using this phone for 6 month now..and the Pro and Cons I can give to this phone is; Pro; -fast phone (menu,applications etc.) -very good keypad -loud and clear sound -the 1st slimmest/smallest 3G phone before W880 i think -simple but stylish design -long battery life -can store text/pic message up to 1000 cons; -average camera with no autofocus & flash -camera can't zoom at full resolution -no fm radio -you don't get headset with the phone package. You have to buy it seperately if u want to listen to Music Player (thx god I've my old W810 headset :) )

  • can it's network setting set to: 1) GSM only ? 2) UMTS only ? 3) GSM & UMTS (Dual Band) ? Pls your valid answer, 'coz I'll buy it if it's network setting can set to "UMTS only". thx b4.

  • hey guys,this fone rocks...BUT no fm ,no flash,camera ok lol....if u all wana any opinion e-mail , me on [email protected]

  • why don have Fm radio???

  • its the best , i can can say its NOKIA N70 with a little difference (flash, FM Radio, Zoom at Pic mode)

  • Certainly a lot better than others in its range, but it is overpriced in india about Rs 11,000 which is quite high.

  • No FM radio with RDS

  • Good phone having great features & good memory space as well don't ever buy it

  • to predatordin: it's actually a dpad not a joystick. this phone is really cool!

  • K601i rocks. for better pictures buy the flash attachment for this phone. you'll love the results

  • this is the best phone I ever owned. i love this phone!

  • i have a question...does this one has an analog thumb? I'm not a big fan of sony's analog thumbstick

  • I have this phone since more than a year. One word describing it would be: GREAT! Its an amazing phone compared with the reasonably low price Pros: 1- Good reception 2- Fast Internet browsing + RSS reader 3- Good sound 4- Wonderful display 5- Never halted or restarted by itself i.e: Nokia ;) Cons: 1- You can't choose a specifec ringtone for each profile!

  • please i want ask about the screen is it big or small cos it is importent thing to me.

  • Yeah!!! I went to Megamall, and saw this, It really rocks on the stand!!! it's 8,000.00 PHP, right now i don't have money to buy it, but for sure i'll buy one for my birthday on december, probably it's price will drop for sure, and im waiting for it!! I saw K800 and i think it's cool too, I want it but much expensive than this fone, it's 12,000.00 php whew, better buy this fpone first then have it upgrade to K800, hehehe!!! -Yeah!

  • great phone!!! i had k750i for so long and i just bought my new k610i and im in love again... xD k750i was really good (despite joystick) and k610i is even better! Don't think, just BUY it ;)

  • well..not bad 4 a mid range hi-end fone..i bought 1 4 my bro and i think he's enjoying it..it has cool features, no fm radio though..just buy 1gig memory card and it'll surely rock!

  • well..not bad for a mid range high end fone..i bought 1 for my brother and i think his enjoying it..no fm radio though..just buy 1gig memory card and it'll rock!

  • uhmm, my comment to this phone is, the phone is really good !.. the music player is so loud and it can hear it within a large noise... its like a true speaker... the sms,mms, and email is great , i can send it rapidly... about the camera, its really good... it captures like "true pictures" especially on good light conditions... the camera infront is really perfect, when using a 3g phone call... its performance is really great, i would recommend it on the market... have this ph0ne with 1gb and 16mb internal memory....... here, in the philippines... using it for almost 10 months, and its really ok.... =bye= c:

  • i just love this phone great looks

  • its very fantastic phone ..slim and handy..only disadvantage is flash

  • I've got this phone (the white one) a week ago and I think it's a good cell: good size, slim, good looking (looks a bit too plastic, but it's solid), much lighter than my N70, hehe. In general, it's a good cellphone for those who doesn't need too many things (talking, sms's, music). The camera is ok, but not amazing: dark colors have too much noise and sometimes, pictures are not well focused when the light is under low conditions. Music very good and user interface s good too. I really recommend it.

  • to nikz: eww... your so baduy... why not buy k600i. than k610i thats more cool instead..

  • im juz asking what to do with the phone when it automatically shut down and doesn't want to open anymore, when i press the power button, red light just flashes on top. what's wrong with this?

  • it is very nice mobil and it is so easy in use but it need a flash in the cam

  • i have this phone and it's good from functionality and price. but after 2 months of use the phone's 4, 7, * and # keypad starts to malfunction, when you press those numbers it does not respond and when you press the number 9 it goes to the profiles wherein you select normal, silent modes. its really disappointing thinking i have finally found a phone that satisfies me. now i cannot write a text message, i'll send this back to have it repaired. does anyone experience the same thing? or does anyone knows how to fix this problem? P.S. i didn't use this phone extremely to cause those keypad to malfunction. as a matter of fact i left this phone safely in my house and then when i got home i discovered the malfunctions. now i'm starting to believe people whose been saying that the durability and software of this phone is weak. hope that it could be repaired

  • Hi, Again, Can anyone tell me if they fixed the noise wherever or whenever this fone is subjected to low light condition using it's 2 megapixel camera?? I read one of the reviews last time and it says that they are working on it, I hope in the final release of this phone, it was fixed so that it'll be much better, I really want this phone so please leave me an answer to all of my questions, I will really apreciate it alot, Tnx, -nikz

  • Sony Ericsson K610 is in the medium class of mobile phones and is aimed at people who need functionality and reliability at the same time from their phones - it's seems to us that it's targeted mainly at the office workers - it has a classic design, high-tech features, compact size and has everything that's necessary to back up your daily schedule. In fact, as regards to the functional characteristics of K610, it is fully identical to Sony Ericsson W710 with the added 3G features. The K610i version of the phone is to be sold in Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa. The other version K610c is for Mainland China. Recently, Sony Ericsson announced another new version of the phone to be manufactured - K610im which will be a black, i-mode version of K610. I-mode is a network operator service for direct handling of iMail, for browsing the Internet and viewing online content. Before we start, though, we should warn you that the phone we tested was a beta version so there are some bugs we found and we are more than sure that they would be fixed in the final version. We won't mention those as we go along the review though, because the bugs are a pretty common thing in a pre-release version. As regards the retail package, the box should include a stereo headset, a USB cable and a 64MB Memory Stick Micro (M2) card along with a Memory Stick Duo Pro adapter but as we have always said - the contents of the retail package are market and country dependant.

  • Main advantages: 3G with video calls 2 megapixel camera Memory card slot Bluetooth 2.0 incl. stereo Bluetooth support Small size Comfortable keypad Main disadvantages: Photo quality issues, no autofocus, QCIF video only No FM radio No Infrared port

  • This phone SUCKZ!!!! it shuts down by itself!!! But I will buy it hehehe on December! YEAH! nothing can stop ME!!

  • Hi Guys, this phone is so great!!!! I'll buy one after 3 months, just waiting for depreciation of this lil' baby, so that I can afford it, but I can't wait! gee, I really want this phone!!

  • Gee! I really want this fone now, but as per system checking, I can buy it on December, becoz I have to save up money for this, whew, 3 Months of excitement, I hope this phone will serve me well, and I hope they already fixed sum bugs like in the prototype they tested, I want the i-mode version of this fone, the black one, and I hope they fixed the "auto shutdown" capability of this fone! HEHEHEHEHE!! some users experience this technical problems, I hope its their fault, putting up some .mp3's and lots of it from a PC, they don't even check if there is a virus within the files they are trying to upload to their K610's! I will love this baby and treat it as my best pal, YEAH! hehehe!

  • That is a very good phone but the battery dont last too much .the sound of the phone is perfect

  • I Have One It's Greatly Workin' Slim .. Smooth .. Lightly ..& The Wide Stereo Speakers Makes Songs Louder Than Ever . Only One Problem I Met With ! M2 Is The Most Expensive Memory Card In The Market ... F**K !

  • i just bought this phone from an ad in friendster. the price is 7500 pesos but i was able to buy it for only 6k. im so lucky coz it's scratchless, complete set, never been opened. but my problem is the network it's locked to globe telecom. and it will cost me 1500 pesos to have it openline... i went to dfferent shops to canvass but the technicians told me that its a high version of k610 that's why its costly to have it openline... anyway im happy with the features of my white k610i

  • Latest Update: U can use 1GB, 2GB, or even up to 4GB, memory cards on this Phone!!!! It's quite Awesome!!!!!!

  • Is the SE K610 has TFT Display or TFT display?? quite confusing ei!! And is there aany available K610im nowadyas??? I want that black phone NOW!! hehee

  • To christian, actually I'm not sure and i don't have any information about it, i think those M2 cards can only perform well in maximum of 512 MB, and I think 1 to 2 GB of memory will neber suite for this one, K610 should be more faster in order for her to handle such memory, but I don't know, kindly check it's documentation, Thanks anyway for the prices, it should really help me alot!! Thanks Bro! Yeah!

  • Can somebody tell me why i can't put an mp3. song as ringtone?????

  • Nice, compact, intelligent, impressive. I use SonyEricsson mobiles since 2001 and will not even try to look for others. I traded this K610i with W610i because W610i was a little noisy with the buttons press. Anyhow, K610 missed some function that were available in W610 but still delicate and awesome.

  • nice 3G fone, economical and easy to use.i dont have problems with its battery, cuz i think the battery that came with my package is an original one.because a lot of imitation batteries are out in the market now, and this batteries dont last that long and are prone to overheating and sometimes may explode causing damage to ur fone...so i advice those who are planning to buy ANY fone, be sure you get the original battery.and if you can buy brand new fones,please do so...refurbished fones do not perform well as compared to brand new fones,refurbished fones do not have parts that came from the manufacturer...and they break down easily.

  • This phone is the best phone i have ever used ,great picture clarity and handsfree is superb

  • My k610i has a problem when i record voice from video or sound recorder. when i play the recorded voice or video the sound level is very poor so i cant hear that i recorded very well. But mic and speaker are very good in all other functions.So i understand that the problem is "software" because the mic and speaker is ok except if i record any sound. i found also that the audio codec in my k610i is AMR but if i use other file with audio codec AAC i found better audio sound. Is it a comon problem for all k610i users? Any one can help me ?

  • PLz tell me how can I get the software for K610i for windows vista. It's urgent....

  • Its cool.....

  • Have had this phone for over 9 months now. It worked fine, until I installed a 512kB memory card. Then it started to shut down all by itself occasionally, which is such a turn off (if you excuse the pun). I should, nevertheless, say, that I just LOVE the design and how it feels in your palm. Besides, the battery is excellent. Lasts very long - compare it to e.g. Nokia 6300, the all around favorite, and you will notice the HUGE difference. Great phone overall.

  • hi there i jst bought this phone i feel it is ok n can anyone tell me how to download games n softwares for this phone because i tried but my phone could not accept it feel free to email me on how to download it n if anyone can also tell me wat is bst abt this phone ???? pls reply.....

  • i have a K610i for 5 months and i shut it down and changed the simcard, when i was trying to start it up again , it didnt start , it was jst flashing red light from above. tht is it. i tried a new battery, didnt work (the battery tried on another phone, it was ok) so the problem not from the battery . i tried to start it while its connected to the charger , didnt work out. i took it to some professionals they re-installed the software on it, didnt work out. if any of you have an idea on what the problem would be .. please email me. i really like this phone :(

  • I have had one for a year now, my first SE. It worked fine for a long time then one of the soft keys failed. It would either not work at all or activate unexpectedly and repeatedly. This has caused a huge problem as i now can't use the phone or transfer my phone book as i need to use this key! Otherwise it's a good phone.

  • been having this phone for 9 mths already. i wld say i'm quite satisfied with this phone. i did experienced the phone shutting itself down occasionally, in fact the number of times shutting off by itself has reduced. it has never ever shuts itself whenever i'm on the phone but usually when i accidentally put the phone on the table hard. the phone is still functioning well even if i throw it into my bag or dropped it. this phone can support 1 gb m2 well, in fact, 1 gb is insufficient for me as i double the phone as a mp3 player too and i had to get a 2gb m2. this phone has no prob supporting it as well!! i admit that the phone does lags at times, but this indicates that i've over stress my phone. all i need to do is do some clean up of the few hundreds sms and that's it. overall, a worth buying phone and it's a good buy.

  • this is a great phone for around �100, great sound quality and high volume levels too. it is easy to use and has quick bluetooth. with 1gb card it is an ideal sub �150 phone. only it could do with a flash and a 3 meg camera. this would seriously increase the price though. love it

  • Its probable santelemo that your mobile is not the original one, it happens at times. Ive been using it for more than 6 months now and no complaints!! truly sony ericsson rocks!!!

  • Hi, Just wanna ask how well this phone could contain a 1GB mem card. Meaning, did it perform well with it? Or should I just get mem card with lower capacity? Thx.

  • hii..can i install any radio in this phone and the phone is really good..thnx

  • DOES ANYBODY HERE KNOW WHERE i can download j2me pdf reader for this fone? i want to be able to read my ebooks on my fon anytime anywhere and i can't find a (free) software for this..HELP!

  • guys, do you hav any idea how to make the message alert tone longer? i've set an mp3 song to be my message alert, after 5 seconds or so it gets cut. in nokia phones they play the whole song when set as an message alert. please help!

  • mine also shuts off by itself a lot off times! worse to come, SE actually changed an second new identical phone for me and the same problem occurs~!

  • hey.im having this model for 7 months already and then it just shuts off by itself, what's the problem? if i'll buy a new one, do you have any recomendations? this really sucks! hate it when it shuts off then it takes a very long time for it to send messages, any tips on how to cure this thing? rar!

  • santelmo, same prob with my k610i too, just had it for less than two months and it shuts down by itself! why does it do that? and i've heard horror stories of WSOD (White screen of death) of SE fones, especially the w550 (it was my bro's fon, he had it replaced already), i just hope k610i wouldn't crash like that...but besides that and the very slow camera, it's an ok fone.. DOES ANYBODY HERE KNOW WHERE i can download j2me pdf reader for this fone? i want to be able to read my ebooks on my fon anytime anywhere and i can't find a (free) software for this..HELP, i'm really not that tech savvy!!

  • lamar that usually indicates water damage , or battery malfunction . iv had this phone for about 8 months and have had no trouble , love the phone . sonys rock imotbh

  • I've had this model for half a year now and i liked it, but it keeps shutting off by itself once in a while and just this afternoon my k610i started malfunctioning! it keeps doing stuff like going in and out of the settings, messaging, file manager, etc. like it has a virus of some sort...info messages keeps popping out even if i press ok or cancel. and now my right select button (the one w/ cancel button) wont work. i tried the master reset, removing the battery, sim and memory card but still, my phone acts the same way...any advice? i plan to bring my k610i to a sony ericsson repair center tom....hopefully it's nothing serious.

  • hi! is it possible to install a software that has radio in this phone? i'm just wondering since this phone doesn't have any radio..

  • i have one and its not turning on the red light keep flashing when charging. anyone can help with this plz.?

  • I've had this phone, K610i, for about 8 months, and I can't use it anymore. I love it, I love the way it works and operates, but it continually shuts itself off,usually in the middle of a phone call. Highly aggravating. I've had it in the shop twice where they keep telling me nothing is wrong with the phone. Piece of junk is my overall impression because of this and SonyEricsson doesn't seem too interested in fixing it.

  • this phone can read n type chinese words ??

  • i've been using this phone for almost a month and its great! yah it's great! when i bought it, the only color available was white so i have the white one..i even thought it was only red and silver..it's a good fone! buy it!

  • please somebody answer.. whats the difference..k610 & k610i lite... i'm now about to order this unit..

  • what is the difference between sony ericsson k610i and k610i lite?

  • To kn: You can't install MS Word reader in K610 but I found the way how to read the documents writed in Word. Send me an e-mail and I will tell you how.

  • Original phone lock is 0000 and can be changed by user.

  • To Jojo: Message counter is in settings, under Info tab,and then Time&Cost. ;-)

  • a don the security code maybe 0000 8888 1234

  • hi! i recently bought this phone and its very good. but can anyone please help me about the code under security, i'm having troubles on determinig on which code to enter. it always say 'wrong code' what is the code? thanks!

  • may i know this phone have message counter function? thankyou!

  • I send SMS to multiple recipients every now and then and I never experience any problem at all. If ever there's problem later, as long as you see your message in Sent Messages folder 'guess it's the network to blame not the phone. It can store SMS as far as its memory can hold. For $180 (price I bought), you can't find a better 3G phone than this. I'm only disappointed with reminder function which is very useful to me 'cause I cannot choose other tone except for the hardly heard defaulted "plok" sound. Overall, it's more than money's worth. Highly recommended.

  • how many SMS message can it store?

  • hi myn name ashu i wnt to know abt ths mob its better for purchase or not only yes/or not

  • Hello.. does this sony ericcson also has trouble in sending messages?? cos as far as i knw i tried in ericcson, you send messages to a list and it wouldnt get delivered to some of them.. please let me know if this is a problem in this as well.. cos ur answers matters a lot to me

  • Poor phone, i've had mine for 4 months and it keeps turning it self off.

  • can we install MS word reader on this phone? thanks

  • Very user friendly, solid built, loud & wow quality sound, excellent display, battery life & reception. Of course not perfect like no FM radio, has only one silly defaulted sound for reminders, can't set volume for SMS & other alarms. Overall... I LOVE IT!!!

  • this mobile is very nice you should buy it

  • This phone has really bad signal!!

  • The only colours that appear to be available are red & silver. The package sold in some countries (i.e. New Zealand) contains only the phone, the charger, the instructions, and a mono headset. No extra memory or PC cable included. I also own a W850i though, so I just use the same PC cable & Drivers disc.

  • tell me how to open front camera =/

  • my brother owns a k510i sony ericsson. whats the features of this k610 that is not in the k510

  • this is a great phone i have a red one. it is perfect i have got about 25 photos and 6 music tracks and ive got 28mb memory left! the only bad thing is the buttons are a bit slow to react to fast texting. it is the perfect phone!

  • Are there other colors available, like black, aside from red and silver?

  • since 2002 i have always had sony ericssons! my first was a t100 which was pretty good for $300! then a z200 (great!) a k300 was next but it was tradgiclly broken in a car crash. and then i had a k310 and now ive got a k610 which is great! im proud 2 say that to wake me up in the morning i use the original sony ericsson tone!

  • It is very bad cellphone. Because I could not find it to buy. whenever I can buy it, it will be the best cellphone in the world. Its desigh is really great.

  • ok i've got big prob wif this phone...I can call to anybody but nobody seems to be able to get to me without at least calling 3 to 10 times(worst case) b4 it gets thru. Nothing wrong with my SIM card as I tried with my previous Nokia phone. Anyone else facing this prob? Pls suggest me a solution, many thanks... =(

  • this is a real phone! its got style its got features and its 3G and only $199 australian dollars! nokia and motorola should look at this and start thinking

  • To dear K610 users, Can this phone record the sound while dialling ? I'm asking you about "Conversation Recording" feature. Thanks,

  • I had this phone last year and i can tell that it's good. Pros: Fast UI and 3D Java gaming Good loudspeakers Cons: Camera is not that good in low light conditions The directional buttons' silver coating easily fades after about a month of use

  • Basically this phone is quite ok, but perhaps the camera is comparable to older 1.3mp phones. any software problems (hang, restart, etc) should be solve-able by software upgrades in the SE website or sending your phone to the SE service centre. my girl has this phone, and i guess the only complaint is that the "BACK" button is too close to the WAP or GPRS thingy, so tendency of clicking that is high. other than that this should be a cool phone.

  • Yep it's a 3G Tri-band phone >.> extracted from my local telephony company: "Phone: Sony Ericsson K610i Lite (3G) Tri-band (Singtelshop)"

  • is sony ericsson k610 tri-band?

  • the design of the camera seems to let me down although a very good cp

  • One camera at the back is for taking pics/vids, the camera in the front is solely for video calls(not for taking pics). So, yep there are 2 cameras. Hmm recently got this phone from singtel, I luv it, everything's worth it for the price. Currently no prob for me as it came with the latest firmware(checked). I'll update here if any prob came up ^ ^! Gosh...y do most phone holders look so boring =( I've manage to find one with car seat design but it's not sold in Singapore =(

  • plz can any one tell me if there are 2 cameras in this mobile???? plz e-mail me at [email protected] am thinking to buy this mobile.so plz tell me if it is good or bad. thnx

  • This is still the best phone ever........

  • Does firmware update resolve all silly software issues on this phone?

  • can you install chinese in the phone?=) how?

  • To Matthew: When we bought it, it did not come with headset and was also told that it has no headset with it. Well... it okay now. I don't need it anyway because my phone got stolen recently.

  • ive try to update the software using sony ericsson update service., but when i'm around 94% it failed., what will happen on my phone pls answer.,

  • good sound quality and very compact

  • This is a good and simple phone...Here are the pros and cons. PROS- 4 me it was cheap i got it 4 $200AU in prepaid. It has a good 2mp Camera. One of the smallest 3G phones. Its speakers are quiet loud. It is compatible with lot of games and software. CONS- It has poor quality software, You will notice some problems,(after 2 months of purchase mine started restarting randomly).It dosn't have a extraordinary fancy look. It has upto 1gb expandable memory(it has m2 which is far more expensive then the others). Altough it ha 2 cameras, you can take pictures with the secondary VGA camera. It has no inferred....Compared to the other phones its screen resolution isn't that good.The speakers may be loud but they are not clear. Those are the pros and cons..I would like to say it is a good phone and if the price is right purchase it...i do not regret having it....The reason why i purchased this phone is because it was the best "THREE" prepiad phone out there...i would not advice taking this on a plan..

  • To An: Ok, have you tired the headset?

  • cant adjust the font size, its too big, when ur in public other ppl may read ur messages, there is no option on divert calls for example when not answered after 5 seconds etc.

  • nice phone...better than my previous nokia6233 (except the speakers) look sexy too.... no regret till now

  • in sert correct sim card ?

  • To Matthew: Apologies accepted. I did try to adjust the volume from the side button, but the either party either complain that it is too soft that they can't hear me or it is too loud that I am screaming.....

  • Plus (Good Things) - Very Loud Music Sound, Great 2 Mega Pixel Camera, Exandable Memory (I Think the highest is 2GB), Slim Model, 3G Enabled, Music Menu Has Som features of a walkman phone (layout and such), Good battery life (dpeending on how you use it)... Minus (Bad Things) - No Innfrared (hardly anyone besides technofobes use such a feature anymore), no radio, cannot use the front camera for lesuire (only 3g calls), if you drop it numerously it will tend to black out from time to time; if your careful with phones you will not have this problem... More Points Soon Come!

  • Oh To An...My aplogies I thought you were talking about the music sound...if the call sound is too loud lower it from the side...neverthelss the fact thta it is loud is a plus...many phones are too quiet...as for the anonymous person posting "does not have a camera" who told you that garbage? Lol...this phone has an excellent camera!

  • can anyone plz tell me the sound of this phone...

  • people could hear me fine on my one, and what are you chatting about no camera??? this is a videophone!! theres one on the front and one on the back!! its a really good fast camera too... !!

  • Whats the maximum mem0ry stick it can handle?4gb?Wat?Pls reply

  • hi alll,.,.,.,. i plan to buy this phone soon, but i want to ask all of u,.,. what is plus n minus from this phone, to someone who answer this question, i say tank u very much,.,. :-) o y, i'm from Indonesia

  • Was Sony Ericsson JOKING when they made this phone? No infrared, radio or camera, in a supposedly high-end 3G phone?

  • To Matthew: To add to my previous opinions: You even agreed that SE phones are very loud which I already said last time. It is too loud that the other party at the end, couldn't hear what I was talking and thought that I was screaming at them even though I was not screaming. It picked up ambience noise too easily unlike my previous nokia and my present motorola!

  • Is there any phones similar to this one??? I want another phone with the same price but im having a hard time looking... I dont mind if its a sony ericsson or a nokia etc... But i hope its also a sony ericsson... So pls.. if anyone can help me i would really be greatful =)

  • To Matthew, Yes, I got all my facts right because I once owned the SE K610i until it was stolen but I did not feel at least bad because it was a lousy phone to me! The only thing I felt bad was all my data etc were lost. That's all!

  • For several themes and all sorts lock unto the following...www.esato.com, www.zedge.no or . net...one of the 2 and www.mobile9.com and ...go on google searching for mk610i lasyk...happy browsing people!

  • Oh please "An" you don't know what your talking about...SE Phones are quality handsets packed with several features, the fact that they are very loud is not a downfall, so get your facts right...as for the person wondering the memory card size limit...I think the K610i can only hack 2GB (not too sure) but there is 4GB M2 memory card for sale so it (might) be compatible, "Saggitarius " what do you mean by "low memory"?...to "tot" make sure you have credit before you send a message, and if that fails call up your network, no one here can do anything about that...

  • Does anyone know which is the memory limit? I understood is 2 GB with M2, but I prefer 4 or even 8 GB. Is this possible? Thanks!

  • how can i install chinese language on my phone?=) can i download it somewhere?

  • may be it's just an updated version of the k610i!!!

  • What is the difference between SE K610i and SE K610i Lite?

  • the im has i-mode the new type of internet its amazing thats what i ahve

  • Ummmm... i was just wandering with a low memory of this phone... how many music, images and games can this phone have???

  • send me more information

  • hey, whenever im sending messages, it always say "message sending failed", but i have strong signal, is there something wrong with the phone? or the antenna? and how can I install chinese in the phone?=) thanks

  • ...i have this phone and i don't like it...it sometimes slow down..turns to white screen and hnag....but its fine....aahhahah

  • can anyone tell me wht deferent between K610i and K610im? thnks... ^_^

  • oopss.. sorry. www.esato.com i mean... ^_~

  • www.eseato.com theres a lot of themes.and games..

  • Really like this phone cos it's sleek and classy.It's also got a lot of functions and cheap to boot.The only problem is that mine also shuts down by itself if it's pressed hard.And can anyone pls tell me a website where I can download free 3d games and themes for k610 to my computer?Pls reply asap!

  • well. hopely i will belong to. the lucky ones

  • How long have you had it for? Less than a year? Then In Some Areas you can get it repaired for free at nearly any carphone warehouse branch....have you tried charging it? The flashing red light ussualy indicates it needs charging...

  • i dropped mine by accident and it dosent work a red light flashes on the top styl lol

  • To Romel you do know that this automatic shutdown issue does not happen to all of our phones, just the several unlucky ones lol, mine works fine, I drop it once a day and nothing is wrong with it!

  • ohhh.. i am about to buy this one. but as i can see.. theres a lot of commentarist against this cutie phones of SE... well well well. how do we avoid this main problem of this S.E.k610i as SHUTTING DOWN automatically? other says after 4 months or 5, or 6... and woahh--- my friend is after 7 months... hey.. is there anybody knows it??? like a software or any??? kindly need your response..

  • You people are going on like every single K610i model is fauty, well your wrong, mine and many more of my friends models work fine, it is either the way you use it (you may have broke it yourself) something you put on it (even though most SE are immune to viruses newer viruses come in the form of themes, videos, games etc) or simply you just bought a faulty one, s*** happens, get a re-fund and stop trying to put the phone down...and as for the people who are finiding it difficult to choose from this model and those other walkman phones think for a minute....do you want 3G or Walkman capabilities? Either way the K610i music menu is similar to one of a Walman phone and 3G is not a very popular feature on hpones these days, so just choose wisely...

  • Some of you guys are hilarious about it doesn't have a good camera...the camera is great, better than many phones out there...and as for mp3 sound/quality this phone is also top notch, extrememly loud, does not have fm radio nor infra-red though, nevertheless everything else is great, I advice people with big hands not to get the phone though, the buttons are quite small..

  • i need a 3g phone for internet connection. but SE product support only has a PC suite for download; nothing for a mac? or is there, somewhere?

  • hi to all.. h jusy bought this phone and i had a disaster...! i was connecting the phone to the pc to download songs and stuff..and i downloaded themes..once i tried to view the themes the phone turned off and i can't start it at all..what can i do...?? i'm really worried and don't know what to do..pls pls anyone answer...

  • Hello...is this phone worth getting? It has 3G and everything that i want except it doesn't look that attractive. Hows the mp3 quality and is the camera good? feed me guys

  • i don't tink its has a fm radio

  • PI3c3: i agree, but not much. try looking at other manufacturer's developer site then compare it with the JSRs available on the Java Platform phones from SE, and you'll see they have also the JSRs present in K610, but the only thing they have not got over the SE is the Multitasking capability in which no other non-OS brands have done. this is due to the excellent work of SE developers in Java Platform.

  • Can anybody tell me if this is a great music player and does this unit is having an FM radio! Please tell me if it's a good phone.thanks!!!

  • Oh... And I forgot to say, that this little phone can communicate with GPS module through Bluetooth, and it is compatible with the Nokia platform. Here is the link, if you dont't believe it:

  • And on the other hand... Why are you so sad, that it has a terrible Camera... It's not a camera at all... If you want to take photos, buy a real one (Olympus or Canon)...

  • Hey Guys... This phone hasn't got a specifically Operating system, but luckily, it has a very nice property, that a lot of phones hasn't got. What is new? I tell you. Because this phone uses Java platform 7, it is allowed to run more than one application in the same time (just as like phones with Symbian OS) JAVA platform 7 has a lot of very good specification. You can manage your photos, videos, MP3 files, your Camera and so on... with JAVA applications. JAVA 7 has the ability, to use any hardware of your Phone... This means that this is not a specifically smart phone, but it has a few and improving ability to use more from your phone...

  • In the UK this phone has gone from �149.99 to �74.99 why is that? Is it known to be faulty?

  • to>>>ling... its ok if u unplug it from any side...

  • to>>>zippo..thanks!=) btw, can you make message folders?

  • Hi!! First of all I'll agree that this is a wonderful phone. I am facing two issues though: 1) whenever I am trying for conference call, if I have one person and I am trying to call the other person and if other person is on other call, my phone hangs. I have to disconnect all calls. Then if I call any person, I won't hear any sound, so I have to restart my phone and it works fine. Does anyone else has also faced the similar issue??? 2)I have 600 names in my directory. But when I type letters to go to particular name, it does not go. Like if I am searching for person Amit. I type A and then m, it doesn't go to am... it stays at a...so search not possible. Does any one else has also faced the same issue. Service centre upgraded the software also, still problem exist.

  • to>>tot.. as far i know, SE K610 or other SE Models dont have that kind of lock... the 1 i posted that day is 4 start up screen lock..

  • had this phone for a few weeks but recently it shut down on me everyday. like everytime i take it out of my bag i have to switch it on again! also when my dad jus got it, he removed the back cover like normally but it split clean into 2 pieces down the center. warranty doesnt cover replacing those parts

  • Theo:when I say "The chip" it means an internal chip, o whatever, that got a virus. It could be originated from a video or a theme downloaded from my PC and then I put in my phone. Bye!

  • Theo: a month ago it happened to my phone. It was OK, I turned it off and when I tried to turn my phone on...died! Just the red light flashing. Technician told me it was a chip. My phone was repaired, not "reseted", and it works fine. When I turned it on there was my phone book, music, pictures and all my files. Good luck and I�m sorry for my broken english.

  • hi can anyone help me out on a big problem ive got? ive been trying to turn this phone on today and wont turn on when i press the turn button the light next to the button flashes on and off red why? can anyone help me on this one? the phone is fully charged aswell

  • Anyone knows which version of the Opera browser this phone use 10q :)

  • Hi, I would like to know how to use the 2nd camera to take pictures. Pls help me

  • i owned this phone before it was stolen. i must say the theif has good taste, the phone is incredibly slim and lightweight, it fits perfectly everywhere without a bulge! The camera was wonderful, people wouldnt believe that i took the photos with a handphone. I'm saving up again for this. Wouldn't settle for another.

  • it always breaks it's been back 3 times with 2 time it has been replaced but other than that is kk

  • Hi ppl I now own this mobile and what can I say that it is an excellent mobile all around. I have a question which is this; Anyone knows if I can connect earphones with this unit or it doesn't support it?? 10x in advance :)

  • is it possible to make folders in messages? such as in nokia?=) thanks!

  • isn't there such thing that every time you unlock your keypad, you have to type a code or something? thanks

  • hmm.. this is 4 the person who ask how 2 lock the phone or use security... it's simple.. go menu>>setting>>general>>security>>locks>>phone protection>>>>protection>>ON>>key in 0000 first later can change it 2 your own number.. "WARNING" this protection dont allow u 2 access your phone if u din enter the pass code at the phone startup..

  • hey thanks that worked. but what was the phone lock's use anyways? I thought it was the lock that for example, after the keypad locks..when you unlock it, you have to type a code..my old nokia phone has that, does SE have it here too? thanks!=)

  • @tot : i'm wrong with 1234 or 12345 number, the right number is 0000

  • @tot : try insert 1234 or 12345

  • Um, my k610i works quite well I guess. But, I want to have like a security lock or a lock code right after the keylock. Is there such thing such as in nokia? Is that the phone lock found in security in settings? But if that was it, how come it always say "phone lock code" and I type a lock code but it says incorrect, but I never had a lock code before? How can I set a new one? thanks!

  • The Good about k610i: 1. It's support AAC+, try to convert CD Audio to .m4a (aacPlus) 64 kbit/s 44100Hz Stereo with Easy CD-DA Extractor 10, the quality sound is same with mp3 128 kbit/s 44100Hz Stereo. The size od .m4a is 50% more small tha MP3. Bye bye... Mp3.. 2. The java game with 3D is faster and no more lag than any K series and W series (except W900).

  • @James Davies : go to setting -> Master Reset -> Reset All.

  • I have this phone for 6 months and NO PROBLEMMM i have found, last night i'm update the sotware to R1JG001 via SEUS and make my phone more fantastic fast and stable, this is the one of fantastic phone that i have. BRAVO SE!!!

  • geero: if you want the cool looks, larger memory and have more budget then go for the K618. but if you want the excellent business looks and feel and have a tight budget then go for K610. spec wise nothings different. both can accomodate 4Gb M2 cards which is amazing for such a size.

  • An: so you mean that all SEs have that problem and sucks? i have some advice for your unit... -upgrade your firmware as it is an essential problem solver and is important in all kinds of cellphone brands. honestly i don't have that problem in my K618 and K750 phone. so i can't understand why you're saying you won't buy sony ever for that cause. it's like all SE sucks just because your own K610 sucks. have enough knowledge before saying something.

  • Add to my previous submission, my phone was only 4 months only when I had all those problem. Also, that 3G sucks as well. Could not even hear at all what other parties talking about even though we had the same kind of phone and model.

  • Got a red colour K610 but got stolen. Wouldn't buy the same one as replacement even though I like the slim and red model. Shut off on its own suddenly a few times. Also, when I talk to other people, they always complain that my hp is too loud and I am always shouting at them. Fact is that I couldn't hear them talking to me and on my receiving end, it is noisy. Also, when I used this phone on my left ear to listen , I couldn't hear at all and I have to use my right ear to listen even though when I still have to cover my left ear to listen intensely. I thought my left ear has problem hearing but when I had my last nokia, I can hear both ears very clearly, and now I have a second motorola, it is very clear for me for both ears. So... I am not sure if I am being unlucky to have that red k610 as one of the kind but I would not buy sony ever again....

  • Can you get any more than the 4 themes for this phone? Also how do you take a photo and make it cover the whole screen as a wallpaper and not the gaps at the top and bottom of screen?? Cheers in advance.

  • anyone know the short codes for the phone for formatting etc.? if there are any thanks

  • does this have auto focus?

  • i have a k610i since september 2006 and i han no problem works perfect i think is the best 3g phone on the market!!!!

  • I'm about to buy a new cell , I just want to know Which cell is louder ( sonyercisson k610 or nokia 3250)

  • Hmm. Have the white version of this phone for five months now. Great phone. Feels great look great & it works wonder. It never did die down on me. Not even once. Wonder why complaints of it shutting off by itself keep on popping up non stop. Anyways. A good buy. A trustworthy companion. Good job SE.

  • i like this mobile but the problem no wifi and infrared. i want to buy this phone and hopefully will not get any problem after i'll buy it.

  • have tried replacing the battery.. that might help... i suppose u always get an extra battery wid ur fone...

  • hi to all thoses that have the shuting problems on what company are your phones branded on to? ive have an o2 one for 4 months now and it perfect never shut down and ive updated it from the sony ericsson official sit and it even better and faster than it was before i updated it

  • u just upgrade the s/w and it will start working

  • to angry: have an update to your phone software at sonyericsson website. the site provides you step by step intuitive and easy following instructions to update the phone software. by the help of updating the phone software you can fixed any annoying bugs especially the restarts and white/black blank screen of deaths which appears to be an often problem to most SEs devices. but at least this is the only problem you would encounter to SEs products other than having restartings/lags/freezes and bugs in smartphones in which are not 100% fixed in phone SW updates.

  • to SuA%, i wouldnt recommend 6288 cos the slider is not as smooth as the old version of it-6280 even after some time. it just gets rougher and it doesnt spring up like other sliders do. u'l get frustrated. but who knows u may be the lucky one??!! :) just my 2 cents worth.

  • wat colors are your k610s? so far i'v only seen the black and the red in singapore. the red is really cool! am thinking of getting it now. got one for my uncle and he's complaining that this phone shuts off by itself when he left it untouch in his bag. was wondering if its just on standby but he said he pressed the buttons a few times and it just doesnt turn on till he switch it off and on again. but i encounter similar situation with other sony ericsson phones esp the w810i. it just stay as black screen for quite some time while i kept punching the keypad til it turned on again. does this happen to your k610?

  • also, how much more can u hold on this memory card? ive found one 4 �17.99, is that good ?

  • thanx to those who replied re the memory card. where is the best place to get one from ?

  • hi all ive had this phone for 5 months its on o2 and never let me down. Lately ive updated the softwere from the sonyericsson site and its even faster than before and the battery life has improved from 3 days of full txts and calls it now goes for 4 day after updating the softwere. For me its a great phone even if its not one of the top guns

  • No good. Have had phone for 6 months and has been repaired once for reception issues (5 weeks) and once for shutting down and not turning back on (6 weeks and counting). Apparently still waiting for parts. Sony Ericsson/Vodafone will not replace until it breaks down 3 times. Worst phone ever.

  • The phone was OK in the beginning. Today, it shut down by itself & I can't switch it on. Tried for several hours! The battery was full as I just charged. Can someone help?

  • oh...i have been using this phone for four months turning to five on april.......damn it...it just shut down and until now it can't open.....its about 3 hours...help...

  • Good things: speaker is great, sound recorder is fun too, superb screen, good camera (video or photo) in outdoors, easy to use, many games, strong software and the battery reach 4-5 days with a moderate use, very good bluetooth with many fun apps. Bad things: regular camera at indoors, no flash, no sync with isync Macosx by default (you need to download drivers made by third party), if u have big fingers, u must disable the internet perfil because the internet button its to easy to click (or have the movil blocked all time).

  • a great phone, with a superb design, slim and a lot of features. Faster than k750/w800/w810, sounds good, display is medium , very comfortable; 8.5/10;

  • This phone totally sucks, it's a really boring handset. I've been using this phone for abt a year, nothing special abt it. If u're thinking of buying this phone, better not, u'll regret for sure.. This phone is more suitable for older people. But if u dun care abt the phone appearance, this phone should be quite ok. In all words.. NO LIFE !

  • I had this phone for several months, and I hated it!..Poor pictures quality, Freezed up sometimes..I like my s710a better than this k610i...So disappointing!

  • for all the 3 customers in australia that has k800i, z610i, k610i and w950i... three just approved new software versions for those handsets... go to www.sonyericsson.com.au

  • As per the feedback frm the customers this fone wrks quite well....the only drawback r the keys..its just u hv to hit it a bit harder!!!

  • im useing this phone frm last 7 month great phone no problem at all great photos video is so so rest its work perfectlly

  • To kerry U can get extra memory, just buy the memory card..my one have 1G M2 work perfect...

  • Hi all, Can any 1 tell me that does this fone supports AAC file?I tranfer AAC file to my fone and its str8 away saved in OTHERS folder and it cant b played...Second thing i want 2 ask is when i take a foto,the foto goes white...so i have 2 modify the pic in photo dj......can any 1 help me out wid this.

  • reply for above: take a laptop! notice that usualy a cell phone is a phone!

  • I've been using k610 for more that two weeks now and I'm a little disappointed. First, it has difficulty getting the my network's signal. I have to get a better spot before I can make a call or send a text message. I wouldn't say it's my network's problem since my colleague at work is using the same cell provider but using nokia, but she has signal all the time. Second, calls are chappy. Third, keys are a too sensitive. So you need to check what you keyed in to make sure you have the right letter unlike in Nokia the letter that comes out responds properly to what you're trying to key in the message. I hope not all SE phones are like this bec. I'm planning to replace it to another SE phone particularly K800i. But if all SE phones experiences these problems, I might go back to Nokia.

  • I like the look of this phone. It's so sleek. I like the colors too. And although I am aware that sony ericsson phones have lower depreciation value than the nokia brand, I'm still a sony-ericsson fan. This is because I like their designs and features better than the nokia models which are so common.

  • i see the phone is outstanding in it's price segment. SE has bunch of accessories for all those have same platform since K750. so honestly there's no need for having more features because you can always dress it up with tons of accessories available now if you get bored of it's functions.

  • 4 kerry, you'll need to purchase an m2 memory card..they go as big as 1gb at the moment..mines in the post, i got it for 28euro, not bad..

  • hi i was just wondering if anyone could tell if u can get a bigger memory card for this phone. i can only hold about 10 songs on it at the moment. i know its not a walkman phone but i thought it would hold more than this. thanx, kerry

  • reply for mm no this phone does not support this, i take it you have a motorola razr?

  • does anybody knows if this phone support function of adjustable sound reminder for missed call or un-opened SMS thx

  • Help! My phone keep on shutting down on its own after locking the keypad. So far it has happened 6 to 7 times already. I have tried doing resetting and update service of the phone but it is still happening. Is this phone problem or software problem? is there anyone out there having the same problem as mine? pls help. another thing is the phone's mic can pick up a lot of noise from the background of noisy places i.e. restaurant. is there a way i can reduce the mic volume? reception sometimes not that good either. the conversation sometimes not so smooth, it is breaking in between. some one out there pls help me. your kind help is very much appreciated. otherwise i am thinking of changing another phone. i just bought this phone 3 weeks ago.

  • All my life i have used defferent phone but i think sony ericson is the best soo far

  • what is the intial charge time when first bought for this phone?

  • Forgot to mention that it sync beautifully with Mac OSX 10.4.9 via iSync.

  • Very good phone. Simple, affordable and applicable.

  • i think this is agreat mobile ohone .. sleek and classy.. and sony erricson phones are known to have lower depreciation value than nokia phones!

  • TO Theo Same thing here but for some times SHaKeeL

  • very good cell phoon

  • I have this phone 5 monts,very nice phone,the battery is good 4,5 days, great mp3,sound quality superb best camera 2.0 mp pure 10

  • hi all ive had this phone for some time now i don't get how all of those that have posted that this phone has done so many problems for them my so far has worked like a charm no problems at all. the only thing that is bothering me and if anyone else has the same fealling as i do is about the button that has the * a/A and key on it when i press it sometimes i can't feal the key go down and that i press it its to hard is it my phone only or is it on anyone elses aswell?

  • whats the difference between this phone and the k750i? which do u think i should get and why?

  • okay, here are the comments. Camera is quite good. mp3 is okay but no megabass. Sound is very loud and clear. Reception is sometimes good and at times not so good. Microphone can pick up background sound in noisy places like restaurants, shopping complex. The other person on the line will hear a lot of noise. This is one of the disadvantages. Is there anyone who knows how to deal with this problem? The phone sometimes power off by itself. Happened to me a few times. I wonder why? My previous phone K700i never encounter this problem. Other than that it is a very good phone. Very slim and sexy phone.

  • four steph: the sound is great, the phone is better then w810. the sound too! et this phone, Good luck!

  • Hi guys, anyone can help me with set up Msg ringtone ??? I set up as a mp3 song but it's not playing long time maybe 5 sec. that's it!! Can somebody help how to set up full song for Msg...??? Please....Thanks [email protected]

  • I have this phone k610i and my brother has just got w810 and when i bluetoothed a song of mine to his, i thought that playback on his wasn't as good as mine and he agreed, considering that the w810 is aimed more as a music phone i beg to differ. But in all phone spec is great its not heavy and bulky, keypad is good, it looks like its a toggle button but its not. I have this on three network and internet is fast, also you can do msn messenger, free of charge so thats even better. LOVE THE PHONE

  • Got this phone recently, have to say it's fantastic..I switched from Motorola SLVR, and man its so much nicer and more user friendly..the menu's are so intuitive. after having one flick through, it felt like I'd owned it for months..I also got a set of nifty little Sony Speakers, and wow, great sound off of them, also came with heaphones..Great package and I'd highly, highly recommend any one with a Motorola to make the switch, you won't be disappointed..Here's a link where you can try out the interface on-line, just go to the "try the phone" clicky to the left..http://www.sonyericsson.com/spg.jsp?cc=ie&­lc=en&ver=4000&template=pip1&pid=10389&zone=pp

  • I've had this phone since October. (+) points: 1. Very user friendly, Easy to navigate. 2. Loudspeaker sounds great 3. Display is bright enough, even in daylight 4. Camera is OK. Good enough for low light 5. 3G function OK. 6. Directional pad better than joystick. 7. Functionality is perfect for the price. 8. Simple but elegant design. 9. High re-sale vaule, low depreciation (-) points: 1. Limited video playback controls 2. Keypad can be tricky. 3. Intrusive Internet and Shortcut buttons 4. Can't take self-photos using second cam unless on video call. 5. Higher capacity (512mp up) M2 Micro Memory Sticks too expensive. It's the best phone for those looking for an all-around phone at an affordable price. Best for: Students, Young Professionals.

  • good 2 mp camera so clear

  • my k610 doesnt play sound. can u help me? plz what should i do?

  • This phone made not for men, buttons are too small. Pictures from camera too smoothing, I tried in different modes. Good video, not bad display. Bluetooth work not stable, sometimes not respond. If you want connecting to other phone - no problem, but K610 don't have browser for listing of catolog of other phone. And the BEST - sometimes was lost connection with Operator - wrote InactiveSIM. All updates not help. It's not a problem of this K610, the same situation is on P990i. I solved this problem when K610 was replaced to other phone (Nokia).

  • @ringing volume to every1 complaining about ringing vol. saying is not loud enough... please try to give an effort to discover how, b4 you complains, talking and complaining, does not solve the damn problem! you dont need talent to discover how to increse the ringing volume...MAN!! thats a very light problem! i have this phone and its sounds real loud.... -if your ring volume level is in maximum and still its not loud for you, go to SETTINGS, RINGING VOL, then try to play the sound/tone of your ringing vol, while the sound is playing, increase the level(upper right buttons @ the side of your celfone).

  • hello SJZ,, thanx for reading my msg, actually it was written after a comparison between k610i and w810i, the ringing volume of the w810i is much better and clearer, besides, the grafix of the w810i is better. at the end, i returned the fone and decided to stick to my good motorola v3. nice day everybody

  • Had this phone about a week now and found it to be quite good. Very like the k800i but minus radio, light, screen size and 3mp camera with auto focus. all other features seem the same. Keypad is useable if a little cramped and on occasion I seem to hit the wrong keys when picking up or hanging up a call. no joystick - which coming from the w800i I found a pain. I have also found a few glitches in the OS which can be annoying. When the phone is switched off it seems to forget settings that you implemented. Things like shortcuts and volume. Bread and butter stuff SE get it fixed! Also I�m on 3 and their personalising of the OS is a real pain anyone know how to flash this and start with SE OS? Truth be told I prefer my w800i

  • is this phone durable? is there really no compatible earphone with this? thanks:)

  • the display on this phone is crap, worse than Samsung d600 and a thousand times worse than k800i. The phone itself is not bad, I mean except for the better camera and radio on the k800i you don't lose much in comparison, most of the features are even the same. The ideal though would be the shape of the k610i packed with all features of the k800i, the former has much better looks.

  • hi, im just asking how can i type in chinese? it doesnt have chinese in the language option even if the manual it has..help

  • This is a reply for the message from a funny anonymous which posted this message: "hello,,, i just bought the phone yesterday, 1st problem noticed was that the ringtone volume is too low, can't hear the phone ringing in rushed places, besides, grafix arent as good as SE W810i, i think im gonna switch. nice day everybody" In fact if you say k610's ringtone is too low, then you don't need to look for any phone that has ringtone that louder that it. I can say it ringtone is strong and almost as strong as w850! How bout the W810 that you are going to switch to???Test yourself ya and don't forget to update here....W810's ringtone is damn low, i am a user of it before i change to k610.BTW,1 of it speaker is fake also

  • "Help" I have set my keypad sound on "click" but it doesnt seem to want to stay on for some reason then it goes to a silent keypad, can anyone tell me why this is please, is it a fault with the phone or what? shirl.

  • does this phone have expandable memory?

  • I love this phone. Bought it last November. I just never had the time to explore its feature, read the manual thoroughly. However, when I tried activating the 3g and MMS features, my phone hanged!! and worst it turned off by itself and now I can't turn it on. I just have to wait til the end of the month before I can have it fixed. I am worried that it could be as bad as the software but I don't remember doing anything besides the usual stuff and the activation thingamajig. May be you could give me some advice. Thank you.

  • RE: TimsGirl See my previous advise entitled RE: SSEE - my mistake. Take Care.

  • RE: SEEE Try to use a combination of four "0" (0000) or optional 1234. One of this should do the trick. BTW, do you have any problems with for example freezeing or any other troubles with software in your k610i? Regards.

  • Very nice phone .. Good looking ...Good features .... But one thing I want is Missing ...FM radio

  • I bought this phone on Friday and love it. The only thing is the a bluetooth headset that is included. I can connect it to the phone and it asks for a passcode but I can't find a passcode anywhere??? I've looked through the booklets, can someone please please help? Thanks

  • Very good d-pad(gsmarena, i dunno y u disagreed) i had very very fast navigation on this, and also this phone is very very light! and thats very well done for a phone with such functions :0 well done SE

  • There are a few stupid people who'd better read the review before asking stupid questions like whether there's flash or joystick!!!

  • i bought the fone last september and it was superb! everything was great!.. until after a month. it just went blackout and worse, it never turned on again even if i tried to charge and replace the batteries with a new one. the following day i received the same comment with my colleagues. they are also using the same model but was bought earlier. we are just wondering what was the problem with the fone? is it fully tested before they released it? we tried to send it back to the vendor but they said that they do not have the software yet to repair or reformat the fone but we took the risk and have them try to solve the case and it took them more than 2 weeks to revive the fone. can anyone tell me what was the reason behind?

  • hello,,, i just bought the phone yesterday, 1st problem noticed was that the ringtone volume is too low, can't hear the phone ringing in rushed places, besides, grafix arent as good as SE W810i, i think im gonna switch. nice day everybody

  • can it play movies in mp4 format?

  • great looking phone, easy to use, typically good SE battery life however, if you lock the keypad, the phone will sometimes power off. very frustrating, and i am going to ask for a replacement. this has also happened with my partner's z610i

  • Dear phone lovers the K 610i it is a great phone, the battery life for me tree days, I used the phone for many calls and in the car I used a Jabra BT 205 bluetooth hands free device, I connect the phone with my PC with a bluetooth adapter and works fast enoght, also after a mounth use the software on the phone colapsed (personaly I believe its romanian software foult) after reinstaled the software the battery life is improuved thats why I believe its the old software foult. I am a convinced Sony Ericsson fan I have also a W 810i. For me the K 610i it is a very good phone manny contacts field , you can changed the memory card (now I am using a Sandisk M2 512 Mb), for any cases you can make on the memory stick a backup of your phonebook, you can organize your folders, many tipes of alarms, the MP3 files sound very good the player has an digital equalizer and you can also atached the headphones from W 810i. The ADP2 stereo profile works excelent with a stereo bluetooth device like Jabra BT 620s, on this model Sony Ericsson has remove the five ways joystick that was instaled on previos models like K 700i or K 750i, and now no problems with broken joystick, however I dont know wy there are using it on the K 800 Cybershot model but whatever. Beleve me puting aside the software problem that many expensive phones have like Nokia E 50 or N 73, Sony Ericcson its a great phone nad you will spend less money that buying a Nokia phone

  • can u give an idea on how can i manage file the ringtones and to move/copy to my own created music list.

  • The battery usually lasts me at least four days, unless I have been glued to tetris.....

  • I'm actually from NZ but just moved here so Aussie I guess. Thanks for all the posts - helped heaps when deciding which to buy. Was tossing up btw Nokia 6288 and SE K610i. Was worried about the slide becoming loose on the Nokia, and liked the review posted of the SE so I got it. I'm so happy! What a great phone - packed with features, looks good, so easy to use. Menus very good and love the shortcut button from which you can make almost any item on any menu just 2 clicks away from standby. A few specifics for people with qus: * Contacts Took a while, especially if you want to do it over bluetooth, but persist because it works like a dream. Insert the CD and install the Sony software (just the one about sync / file manager). Make sure you follow the instructions about the USB cable. If stuck, go to sonyericsson.com/support and download the pdf 'user guide' on this topic. Once the USB drivers are installed from the CD then you just follow the instructions in the wizard. For me using bluetooth, the key was the 'phone monitor' - make sure you go to COM ports and enable the port that your phone connects to. When you turn bluetooth on in the phone, your bluetooth-enabled computer will recognise the connection and you'll be able to synchronise contacts / calendar / notes / tasks easily. Fantastic * Mirror: Main menu - video call - More - Layout - Switch pictures. There you go. You can even zoom in! * Keys and shortcuts. Yes it is a little small, and I have big hands (6'2" tall), but I can use it fine. I can't text easily using one hand like I used to with my old (very old) Nokia, but it's ok. If you want to text endlessly, you'd better have smaller hands. * Battery. If you read all the posts, everyone sooner or later says their battery life is too short. When I got my new laptop the instructions were specific: charge the battery fully (ie. at least 12 hours), then discharge it fully (ie. until it is COMPLETELY flat). This lets the device know how much battery life it has. I did this with my mobile, it's been going 5 days now and is at 20% on its first charge. Make sure also that you turn the screen brightness down. Otherwise, it just depends what applications you use. For me it's great. So over all a fantastic phone for me, and I hope for you too.

  • Upgraded from Z800i. Nice little mobile but it looks like the 1.3MP camera on old fone was better. Weird

  • asking how long the battery lasts is quite dumb seeing as it will last variably towards different people because they use it differently.

  • I have this phone half year ago, great phone overall but it's really boring, nth unique abt this phone,normal sony ericsson phone..thinking to change it to nokia 7930

  • how much does the battery last??

  • hey i have just bought this phone and i wanna know how to just use the 3g camera on the front as a camera? lke a mirror, i was told ya can do that xxx thankzxxxx

  • excellent phone.i have always used nokias but am very pleased with this phone.light,good reception, connectivity and has all the features you need in a light small handset.definitely excellent.

  • hi! can anyone help me oput on how to transfer contacts to the PC... need help... kindly post here any ideas. tnx.

  • true words, is sexy & cute. UUU....mrr...ahhh

  • i have not use the mobile yet but reading the feature it appear a excellent mobile;

  • one word. sexy.

  • Loving the phone and I just got it, it has every feature nessecary etc....some of you lot are complaining about the battery life, well taht is because sony ericssons have very powerful screens therefore if you use the phone excssevily then the batteyr life will drain fats e.g.making callss at then playing games, then listening to music then taking pictures...this phone gets 10/10 form me, sony ericsson is number one...

  • Hey. I just bought this phone and it have evetyrhing I need, but the battery life is low. The soundvolume is awesome. I don't really use the camera but its really good. Only reason for this phone is because I can't stand those joysticks. I had a K700i before and it was a really good phone besides that one tiny joystickproblem. If you want a basic Sony Ericsson, you better go for this one.

  • @Jonatz Cruz: It's a very detailed description, it'll be very useful to those who intend buying this phone.

  • is a stupid fone

  • no comment...it's good phone...

  • Yes, it has video streaming, although it doesn't use Realplayer.

  • in all fairness, SE K610i is doin good (not to think of its downfalls). IT ROCKS!!!!

  • hi, is this fone capable for VIDEO STREAMING? if not, then that'll be another downfall...tsk...tsk..tsk

  • This is one great phone for a bargain price. it only costs P12000.00 to P14000.00 (US$240.00 to US$280.00) The menu is very to navigate through, considering it is a non-OS phone (Meaning it dosn't use any special Operating System [OS] to function, unlike most Nokia, O2, Qtek and some Motorola handsets). Internet access is a touch of a button away, which is a breeze. Functions are easy to understand and access. It's actually easier to use than most Symbian OS or Windows OS-based phones. The Camera, also accessible in a touch of a button, is great even in LOW LIGHT conditions (of course the camera is useless if there is really NO LIGHT, it doesn't have a flash, whick kinds sucks a bit). It comes with several options (eg: pix size, shoot mode, quality, night mode, self timer, white balance, effects) to take a perfect shot. Only thing is, it doesn't have flash. You can buys a separate snap on flash if you want to, but you wouldn't normally need it unless you take most of your pictures in the dark. It's also a very fashionable phone for any event. It looks elegant enough for formal parties while it doesn't look out of place in bars and clubs. It actually comes in 4 colors (although some argue it only comes in 3 in the Philippines): Urban Silver, Misty White, and Carbon Black. I got the more common Urban Silver. It can play ALMOST all audio formats and it always sounds great through the speaker or headsets (the Music Player even has an equalizer function w/ preset settings). Sadly it doesn't come with FM Radio. You'd need a special accessory (FM Music Transmitter) if you want FM Radio. Video Calling is good enough for a mid-range 3G phone. The VGA camera has zoom and night mode functions, video quality options, and mirror image feature. You can further enhance the experience by switching image layout or camera used. Only thing that really bothers me though, is the shortcut access and internet access keys which are located in such a way that you'd press them accidentally when you intend to use either softkeys or the back or clear key. Another thing which is a bit irksome is the vertical spacing of the keys. It's easy to press the wrong button when creating text messages. About the front VGA Camera, you can't take a picture w/ it unless you're on video call. It can work as a high-tech mirror though. It's handy when you inspecting a zit. In the Philippines, you'd get a USB cable, PC-Suite CD, Manual, Charger, and a 64MB Memory Stick Micro (M2). The last item, though it gives you more memory, is not a really good thing because M2 cards are quite expensive comared to other mass storage cards in the market (1GB M2 = P3400.00 or US$68.00; 1GB RS MMC = P1200.00 or $24.00). Overall, I'd say this is a good 3G starter phone. It comes with most features you can actually use without the frills.

  • for Nikola: I had many phones with joystick, but I never have problems with SE's joystick.It is one of the best!So, maybe you should consult an SE service.

  • Its surely a nice light fon ...... Sony Ericsson keep up the gooda work end transmission........................

  • Phone is great my battery life about 4 days. Talk 30 min per day

  • I have a question,had anybody problems with navigation keys?have mobile joystic?,i have k700i and joystick is suck,dead so any body can help plz tell me aabout mobile navigation key,is it joystick or 4 buttons and in middle button for ok??had anybody problem,is it good,navigation??plz answer!!!

  • I think this phone is great, features are brilliant but the battery life doesn't even last a day which is a real downfall.

  • plz... nid a answer.... how can u take pictures in front of the camera..?? without using the 3g calling..,. i know that u can capture a picture in front of the camera if u are using and calling using 3g... but how to take pictures w/out using the 3g calling..?? nid an answer.... as soon as possible... plz...

  • really?how do you take pictures with the front(3g) camera?

  • For anyone who needs to know you can use the camera on the front(3g) for take photos. U can take pictures of urself which is great!! Hope this helps everyone!

  • Basically the difference is that the k61o I is an Imode handset!

  • I just bought this phone 2 weeks ago. I like the features. It's all amazing. The speed of typing message is so fast, unlike the other phones I had. The one I regret is only the battery life. It's not what other people say. It doesn't last long. However, it's a good phone to buy. Thanx for all.

  • hi everyone!!! pls take some time to visit my blogspot: this is from my k610, i'm loving this phone. only fly in the ointment is that it doesnt have flash (just like k800/790), camera cover, fm radio and infrared...but its ok, i can still live w/out those stuffs (that is, for now) (",)

  • I have one of these, in red. Its a fantastic phone- however I have two questions - Can I use the camera on the top of the screen to take photos with? - How do I activate seperate ring tones for my contacts, as the phone has a 'set caller ringtone' option in caller ID. Thankyou for your time x

  • i hpin to buy ds 4n..i used to change the sim frequently...so want to know wthr its easy to change the sim o nt in k610 plz anwr

  • I used this phone for 3 weeks now and I'm having a problem with my provider (Mobinil/Egypt). In some specific locations the phone gives a message of No Network Access, and I can't make or receive calls. Even if I manage to make a call it only lasts for 14 seconds. If you are in Egypt and have a Mobinil line, don't buy the phone.

  • @dee - yes, you may. @cicco - i think it's only a regional difference (like "c" for the region of China) - i think.

  • hi , does anybody knows what is difference between k610 and k610i .....ty

  • hi ... how can i connect to the internet from usb cable, please help me

  • its not a five direction joystick...

  • gret dizyn hundsome face and good camera for that dizyn

  • hey could anyone help me please...i just wanna know wether i could make folders in this phone? like for pictures..or mp3s?

  • Well, the sound is adjusted well, in order not to have problems with your ears. With my headphones, i usually listen at 2-3 squares; I think SE's security measurement is very good for those who listen to music at high volume, and destroy their hearing in a couple of ears.

  • Hi, this michael here im thinking about getting this fone but i want to know if it has a joystick or 5 way navigation key. I cant tell from the pictures. i probably wont bother looking for a response but whoever has one and wants to tell me please email me the response at [email protected]

  • hi, can u ppl help me out. can this fon support turbo msn? cause sum say yeah, n sum say no. pls n thank you ^_^

  • I've got this cellphone at Christmas, and, till now, I can say it works well. I had a k300i, and the difference is already feeling. I'm very proud about this phone, it's satisfying all my "requirements". A good mp3/m4a/wma player, which can almost replace the lack of a RDS radio, a pretty good camera (let not forget that we're talking of a phone); I personally like and need the minimize option for the applications, including this music player. I received this phone with quite "a lot" accessories, like the USB cable, the software, a "one ear" headphone and a 64MB M2, which are extremely useful. The screen has the perfect resolution and sharpness for a phone, I have no complains. As a conclusion, I recommend you this phone, it has more to give you than necessary, and I think there many things more important at a phone than a good-pixelated camera, lots of connectivity methods or a radio; the design is very modern, the menus simple and easy to learn; the balance of quality/price is very good from my point of view. For any other explications, don't hesitate to mail me, and, cheers from Romania!

  • I have a K610i & it is a Vry gud Cellphone, Its features are WONDERFUL.. It has a bright col0r.. It has also a gud CAmeRA... & and a VIdEo... Its muZic is Nice... It has a gud MP3.. SO we don't neeD anymoRe a RaDIo...;-)

  • i've been using this phone for a couple of days.... and the performance is very ok!! music playr... 2 mp cam,, video call... video dj is very ok!!! all the features are ok..! if you have a mp3 on ur phone, u will not expect anym0re 2 have a radio....

  • i ave k610i.i comapre it with w810 but there is a bid diffrence in disply.i mean w810 has very sharp colors then k610i.

  • I have one K610i too and I can use my mobile without problems connected with USB to the PC, you should have to install the software that is in the CD, I also try to find the driver on Internet an the CD that comes with the phone and I never found it, so I installed the software that comes in the CD and it works , thats the only way to sync the mobile and the PC that I know and it works good, I hope that this will help you

  • really BAD camera (no autofocus) compared to w800/k750

  • Summary: I'm very happy with this phone, screen is very colourful (all the icons look great) and sharp, sound is great, camera is also very nice in bright day but have to say much worse in night or faint places. Phone is easy to use and I'd say just friendly. There were small portable white speakers in the box as well (size of box of matches) so I can listen to music like small hi-fi set - it's little bit like Ipod dock station. I haven't seen them speakers on gsmarena.com K610 review, so maybe I'm just lucky to get some limited verion of this phone or something :-) They're very nice indeed. The organizer is just good enough, you can put there all necessary peoples data, I don't need anything more than that. Phone is also very compact, easily fits into the pocket which is quite important for me. Drawbacks ? Probably I'd like to see some camera lens cover - this one is quite exposed for some scratches. Also lacks of FM radio. Anyway, its small exceptionally well designed phone which delivers great value for your money, I hardly doubt you can get anything better for this price (I paid 150 eur).

  • Soki, I bought this phone yesterday and connected to my pc within minutes, no problem at all. You just need to install software from CD that is included in the box. What exacly is your problem, you don't have this cd or what ?

  • Sony Ericsson K610i, Can the front camera be used in taking pictures?or is it only for 3g?

  • i think the casing is changeable but iam not a user of this handset, people who use this handset can tell u better.
