Sony Ericsson M600 - User Reviews

  • From where can I print instructions for the Sony Ericsson M600i? I inherited on from my late sister, but do not know how to use it? Thanks [email protected]

  • best phone I've ever had (outside the ecosystem). even compared to my current LG G2 (android Lollipop) & iPhone 5 (iOS 9). it's handwriting recognition absolutely perfect (very fast, accurate & easy to use) !! I also tried Note 4 but specifically for handwriting recognition is still lagging behind this phone...

  • I did not get to use the W950, I used the M600 i I think that's the choice before there was the W950 is very strong and the best phone I have ever had ...

  • Very careful with some theme from web,could cause proble to your mobile phone.

  • a very very good phone.. it has almost everything needed and good for work. very nice system and the extra softwares downloadable for this phone are brilliant. i used to think of it as a PDA. but only three problem, the processor is good but not power enough for the phone auto restarts regulary to improve performance. There is no Radio and no Camera but an external camera could be connected.

  • I used this phone about 4 years & still love it. SONER pls make a phone like this again, but in horizontal screen & Android OS

  • Symbian 9.1 UIQ 3 was great! If only SE knew they would have carried on! The P series were complete phones, all that was needed 1. VGA and higher screen reolution, 2. More processor power 400+, 3.More RAM 256 MHz+, 4.Other tweeks eg font quality(compare Nokia fonts) 3.5 mm audio jack, multicard support....! To this day I would buy UIQx if the would be done. Symbian UIQ had true multitasking and more! Revive UIQ. I miss UIQ!!!!!!!

  • SE P1i same looks with this phone yet it has 3.15MP cam and wifi c:) YO!

  • This phone can be purchased from ebay.com. I got a new white color model of this.. The price is just $99 with free shipping comes to INR4500 approx, I got it from Hong kong seller.

  • yes man you are right : sony ericsson need release a phone like this again!!! why sony stopped !!!!! m and p and g ??????? now nokia is copied sony : and the will be more success

  • Hey ! Where cud I find one in Mumbai , India >?? Is there any store selling the phased out discontinued piece ? I'd lyk to buy one ... Kindly revert with whtevah info available on its purchase details in Mumbai ? Feel Ebay and amazon is unreliable when it comes to India ...

  • Sonyericsson "Need" to release a phone like this again!!! with a better touch screen, processor and also camera. What makes me like this so much is it was used in James Bond.

  • i need the m-600 gdfs file can u help me.

  • in malaysia still got ...some store have it

  • this phone is no longer available in sony ericsson store, because it is already phased out,, but still you can purchase one from e bay, or amazon which is on a cheap prize,, here in the philippines,, you can still buy a nice pre owned one for less than 80 dollars,, or P3,500

  • hello vikrant,, it can store a lot up to youre memory capacity, which is a thousand or more, sms messeges,, there is one time that my inbox messeges got up to 2,688 messeges,, and thats not include my emails and sent messeges,,

  • i like this mobile but i want to know its original prize

  • How many msgs can b stored in m600 phone?

  • yeah!!! its the best 3g phone!!! interms of durability,, yes it doesent have a high speed hsdpa, but still does the job well,, i dont need a very high speed connection, just checking my e mails,, and sending my report,, its a very good phone,, very easy to used compared to other smart phones,, and excellent battery life!!!

  • Same here. camera phones are not allowed in my office. Its the best non camera phone with 3G

  • im using this ph0ne for 4 yrs because cellphones with cameras are n0t all0wed on my 0ffice, its very reliable phone and served me well until n0w, since im pr0m0ted, i can n0w bring camera ph0ne 0n my 0ffice, i decided to buy an iph0ne 4, after 3days 0f use iph0ne has a l0t 0f pr0blems, screen sp0ts, detiliarating signal, camera failing! i returned it t0 the st0re! g0od thing, my 0ld friend still 0n my drawer, waiting f0r me, my bel0ved M600i

  • Excellent phone very much comfortable would like to replace with the same.

  • my alllll time favorite ....... still using it after 4 years... and recently bought a new white one ! well ,, the stupid cameras on cellphones are not worth for paying , maybe just the latest models... but not in 2006 ! its a very unique phone , which makes people to hate or love it soo much !

  • its a nice ph0ne, looks, durability, but in terms of features, this phone was sort of short, it doesent have a basic camera, sony points out, that they desighn this phone mainly as a pda, but for browsing, its still short, it doesent have, hsdpa, or edge, for hi speed internet, its processor only has a 208 mghz of speed, in general, this phone was just more on hey look at my phone! than performance

  • A really good phone, also struggling to get a replacement, have been looking at the X1 but i dont like the fact that it's a slider. Am totally emotionally attatched to that phone. Which is the best upgrade????

  • An awesome phone to use. I've never typed a text so fast in my life! Definitely the best phone I've owned yet.

  • This is the most awesome phone i had. It has got touch screen + a physical qwerty keyboard and STYLE! The touch screen works great. The keyboard takes getting used to but once you get a hold of it, its addicting. Too bad someone stole mine. Im literally having a hard time finding a replacement. The ones that have touch screen, dont have physical qwerty keyboards. when they have physical qwerty, they dont have touch. And those which have both, are fat brick phones that lack style. =(

  • how can i use my m600i for internet

  • is this fone is better as compare to p1i??.....

  • how did you do that?

  • I have this phone and yeah its alright but there are things that are hard to come over. like the key board. if you were to try ring 1800mumdad you couldnt because the letters are like a computer key board witch makes it harder to get the right number. and as i am only a high school student i think it is better for a hard business worker!

  • I have actually made my m600 look like an iphone.. I mean i have the iLock and 7 pages full of icons and it all works perfect.. I mean that the phone is awesome !!! Peace

  • I real appreciate the company which manfactured Sony Ericson. but my problem is features in the phones matters alot. Like in M600i the radio function is not there and yet it looks so beautiful among many types of phone companies.Therefore can the company revise the make-up of M600i. Thanx.

  • I love this phone since I watched the James Bond' Casino Royale movie few years ago. The actor/actress inside this movie was using this phone. This is the 1st time i saw this phone and imidiately falled in love with this phone. After that I searching it all over my country and have it until now around 3 years already.

  • it is aa very good mobile i have it

  • Plus : Good Design, large screen, QWERTY keyboard. Very customizable, you can put Walkman 2.0 on this phone, although that will make SE mad :) Minus : No camera, no WI-FI, low RAM.

  • cool phone, with a lot of apps available, but too big, no camera, no wi-fi. good battery, touchscreen. a little slow at response

  • dont think the G900 comes with a camera free version. but the fone is good with some real techie stuff onboard

  • maybe you could look at the g900? there are both camera and non-camera versions. Just no QWERTY:(

  • I havent been using this phone for 4 years now. It has never failed on me. The plastic body is surprisingly hardy. I am singaporean so I have to service mandatory military service for two years. The m600i is the perfect smartphone for secured work places like military bases because it doesn't have a camera. Perfect for checking your emails while in the jungle during a military exercise.

  • pls guide me y u are telling this..i would like to have this one....

  • well... I bought one in april 2007. I'm still using it today. Now I'm searching for a replacement. The problem is I can't find a better one. Of course was exactly what I search for: touchscreen, QWERTY keyboard, internet access, relatively large screen and no useless accesories. Just a business phone.

  • I would buy a brick rather than buy this one. worst mobile from SE.

  • why there is no radio in the funtion.

  • I can get for you. Practically I have 2 sets. But this thing is I am from Malaysia and I don't know where you are coming from. If oversea, can trade using paypal. The phone is in good condition.

  • what i can say... this phone is just Amazing

  • bought this phone early this month.. cost me about 4,500php since it is 2nd hand. twice had problems rebooting the phone due to some themes i've dowloaded which i believe had viruses that prevented the phone to access any apps and when turned off it no longer reboot when turned on.. only way is to update the OS. overall, the phone is great even in the absence of a camera. equalizer has megabass & speaker output is awesome as compared to my daughter's nokia E63. for those who owns a M600i, i would think twice when downloading a theme..

  • How much mem does it support?Anyone reply plz........

  • Hi buddy, thanks for your reply. where can i find this advanced device locks?

  • I am working on mobile application,I am trying to access the webservice in sony ericsson M600I cell, but its throwing an exception (1)Missing end tag for soap envelop or body.Please if possible try to solve this bug in the sony ericsson cell phone series.

  • Yes, try Advanced Device Locks!

  • hi y'all i'm from Ghana and i want to buy this phone.i think its great but people complain abt it alot.should i buy it?

  • Apart from locking the entire phone, does anyone know whether it is possible to lock specific applications on the Sony Ericsson M600?

  • I loved this phone when I first got it, the only downside was not having a camera. I have found the same problem with the phone switching itself off. It started off randomly but has gotten to the point where I can no longer switch it on. Within a few seconds it will switch itself off again. Sometimes it turns itself on and then off again. No-one can tell me what's wrong with it but I've had it for less than one year. Does anyone know if this problem is fixable?

  • I am a sony phone freak.I just thout of using a phone witout camera and m600i fits.Unfurtunately,after buying the after a week it hangs while istalling a theme and since then can not boot up.I av tried flashing it but wont work.

  • I've had this phone for almost two years. It's a quality product, but has given me some trouble in a few areas. The OS is unstable, sometimes when I answer phone calls the phone restarts for no reason, it actually did this twice today. Also, the ram is insufficient, so you must make it a habit of going into the task manager and ending programs if you install a lot of cool stuff on the phone. Also, depending on what other types of qwerty handsets you've used in the past, this keypad might take a bit getting used to. This was my first qwerty handset, so I didn't have a problem adjusting to the keypad. Others may think differently. Opera is a great browser for the phone and navigating web pages with your fingers is possible, though using a stylus may be more comfortable.

  • Click on the time display on the main screen and un-check the alarms.

  • Opera Mini Official navigation is suck i must use jog dial. Opera Mini Mod navigation still the Best for SE UIQ3 Smartphone because use keyboard navigation

  • Can anyone tell me how do I get rid of the regular Alarm from this handset. There are some regular alarm in this set and I cannot find any way to stop it.

  • I have been using this phone from 2007 till now. No problem like hang/phone stuck if you upgrade the firmware to the latest. This Touch Screen Phone is so pragmatic and easy to use. It works really best while playing internet using opera mini 4.2. What do you wait for? buy it.

  • *waiting new Symbian Smartphone from Sony Ericsson with new Symbian Open Source OS* i hope Sony Ericsson make good design like M600i & P1i Candybar Touchscreen QWERTY

  • yes 64MB is Total RAM on M600i but Free RAM on M600i Only 19MB [64 MB - 45 MB for OS]

  • m600i have 64 mb ram and p1 have 128 mb ram

  • gaidys gi ce

  • This phone is very good, ups .,I mean the best:D with a litle modification, this phone will has Walkman Player, better sound quality, better interface, and more function., try it!!!

  • hi is there anyway to get the tool bar off on the orange handsets it is really annoying?

  • is this phone have a loudspeaker? is this phone have a gud quality? answer pls

  • You can convert movie file from Total Converter software. It is available on net at free of cost & enjoy movie as I do.

  • Hi all, please help! i want to know does this phone (M800i) support 8GB card if not then upto what GB it will support.

  • Try visiting my-symbian.com and search P1 theme. I think you got a theme that works on P1 but not on M600. It happened to me due to the element for statusbar not being drawn correctly. You can also check the UIQ3 Wiki on the Theme. There it mentioned the same issue. To resolve, you can bring it to Service Center to flash it again, or do it yourself (but not recommended if you don't like fixing things. It might take a long time : preparation, software installation on PC, etc.)

  • C902 isn't Smartphone Zz..Zz C'mon Sony Ericsson make much Smartphone like Nokia

  • Anonmymous,try c902.

  • The M600i is a wonderful phone it does alot of things that i enjoy with.Never mind the camera it a touch screen type. Have been with this model for almost 3 years and still my favorite. P800i,W900i,P990i,P1i,C902,W890i,M600i,P910i not 1 of these do not hassle me if you take care of it like your wife. SE is a quality product.TRUST ME!!!!!

  • maybe M600i RAM cannot open 100MB document because M600i Free RAM only 19MB try with P1i because have large RAM +- 80MB

  • flash your phone with Sony Ericsson Update Service download at SE web site. Good Luck

  • c'mon Sony Ericsson make new Smartphone with Symbian!!! your UIQ 3 phone technology is out of date! make new version M600i with Symbian S60 + large RAM

  • Hi i have had this phone for some time and I transfered over a word document to read on the phone,but it can't open it it just says jpeg to big. The file is about 100mb and I have a 1gb card in the phone. Also is it possible to view movie clips on this model, doI need to get a software upgrade.

  • need some help here T_T just downloaded n installed themes (about 15). but after i set 1 theme n restart my phone, it won't booting. just hang in middle of process (can't reach standby mode -even flight-mode option) pls can someone tell me what to do? T_T really appreciate it

  • SE theme format is .utz i think you must extract the file with winrar on pc or with x-plore from phone. Good Luck

  • I've downloaded some themes from internet for my M600, but what I've got were zip files that the phone doesn't recognize. Can you help me? Coz I only have ONE theme n it starts t make me bored. Thanks.

  • I have one for almost a year now and really like it, until today I think it can rival a lot of new phones. BUT I really have a problem with reception/signal, sometimes it just can't find the signal (no signal at all or just 2 little bars but can't make or receive calls) and nothing I do solves this (turn off and on, change position, place etc) I can only wait a while so it comes back to normal. anyone else has similar problems ?

  • M600i sound quality is BEST!!! M600i = Nice Design , Nice QWERTY , Nice Casing Colour but BAD OS support [Symbian UIQ] & now the OS is DEAD!!!

  • i wish next M600i use Symbian S60 LoL.. Sony Ericsson isn't smart again after kill UIQ

  • what about the quality of sound in music and songs and the headset?

  • Dis phone is superb. I bought it 2 days ago and I loved it since. Especially d internet connection. Wow, amazing. I really love my M600i.

  • I can hardly see anything in the display while under the sun light... How do you guys solve this problem?

  • Do you have any issue with front speaker that is too low when making a normal conversation call? That's the only problem I have w/ this phone. Other application range from office to multimedia application is superb. I've done all mods to improve the front speaker, but yet not helpful. Please share w/ us here if anybody has a solution to fix this. Thanks.

  • Its one of the best set of Sony Ericsson. And W950i also a better phone. We some people are waiting for this phone M600i & W950i. Sony Ericsson should think about this

  • Mohamed, where do u buy ur phone? USD $50 only? dats cheap..

  • i get those phones for 50 usd brandew. i think u payed a bit too much.

  • it's the coolest phone ever....i'm so satisfacted from m600i...hope we'll wait the next m600i...soon!

  • Maybe because you don't know how to make M600 little bit faster.. try turn off handwriting recognition and transition, use simple static small size theme ( do not use flash theme, close unused open application in task manager, do not full your storage. Hope it works

  • I think M600i is the best. I used it 2 years, and during that years there is no problem. If SE make a "all new" M600 series, i will buy it.... Thanks SE for great M600i...

  • I bought 1 now. It`s M600i for 2115Nkr, is that cheap? About 385 us $.

  • its a really nice phone good sound but the software is a bit slow and screen problems rnt easy to solve ive had one for 2 years and now im planning 2 change!!!

  • i've found the answer in previous comments that it supports 4G card. thank you guys...

  • Does this phone support 4GB M2 card?

  • no Camera...mm, but NO WLAN...no WAY!!!

  • M600 has megabass feature in its music player with the same quality like other walkman series,use headset of walkman series for better quality.Browsing internet is quite fast,especially when the signal is strong or when you're in 3G coverage.

  • Hi..is this phone still available in the market? Im from the philippines. San po ba authorized mobile shop meron nito? TY.

  • I've had this phone for about a year and it's wonderful. The lack of a camera didn't bother me at first, but I'm starting to get annoyed that I don't have one now. However, the excellent qwerty keypad makes up for it. It's either love or hate, and I certainly had a bit of difficulty in using it my first day, but I'm hooked on the device. Cheers to SE, I love the design of this phone, especially the keypad. It's a shame that UIQ crashes so much though :-(

  • first,sorry my english is not good .i interseted of this phone,but if the music player can upgrade to walkman series(can megabass)? and how about speed in the browsing? if compare with w950 and k660,what should i chose?

  • I had this phone since 2006.and it's still doin great. The qwerty board is amazing,very comfrtbl to text. Notes is great. Alarm,very useful. Messaging,amazing. Music player is nice. This is the best phone ever.(i used nok 3660 n 6600 before) And since it's body is notplastic,my beautiful black m600i is almost free from scratch.literally.i dont even use any casing.amazing,aight? I wondr why this phone isn't a best seller..

  • great phone with great price ...

  • M600i & P1i Best of The Best Sony Ericsson Symbian UIQ Smartphone Design!!

  • I guess this phone is very good.Despite it has no camera,it can serve everything you need in doing your jobs.In addition,by using operamini 4.1,you can save page you've visited to read after,and even you can save the picture by press it for a while,then the save dialog window appears.This feature did't work in symbian 3rd edition!The M2 can be expanded up to 4 gigs effectively,but it still works using 8 gigs. I have updated my phone's software,now R9F011.Before updating the software,i could't setup gmail,but now,it works perfectly,thanks for my friend Prihantono.If you've got trouble with your phone,maybe you should do the same.It is very easy to update,just connect your phone with the data cable to PC with internet connection.Download the update program from www.sonyericsson.com,then the instruction will appear.

  • pse info ..... about M2 at M600

  • I have this phone for about a year. I don't think you can find anywhere better phone. The coolest design, very fast (faster than p1 and 990), Great display, and with the update you can watch movies and vids, so innovative and easy-to-use qwerty. The phone has just one problem Wi-fi, but hey grow up the net browsing with the phone is huge ****(buy a small notebook). About the camera. . . who cares :D

  • visit www.zedge.net ...its alls free...

  • Hi guys,dat is phone of century.easy 2 use,stylish,matured. No probs abt de phone. I'm a student of Ahmadu Bello University Zaria,Nigeria.

  • why no new SE UIQ phone with QWERTY like M600i & P1i ?????? i don't like G series because not use QWERTY & screen size only 2,4'

  • hi guys i am using this cellphone right now and i think it is awsome...battery life is good though the signal antenna could be a little bit improved..i have signal fluctuations where i used to have full signal with my old n73. I read that some of you think that the keybord is annoying...actually it's not as the keys are placed just like and ordinary computer keyboard..conclusion: I LOVE IT!

  • I had picked up this phone when it launched in India. 2006 i guess Its probably one of the best phones I have ever used.(QWERTY keyboard,Handwriting recognition, TFT touchscreen, Media Player, infrared, Bluetooth, Extendable memory,GPRS, HTML Brouser, Up to 7 hrs of talk time)... practically everything you need in a phone... with a lil luck you could still get your hands on one of them.

  • just go on the internet on wwww.google.com and write themes for sony ericsson m600i

  • Hi guys sorry my bag english but I want to ask something I have bought m600i now and I want to know how I can put themes on it please answer me

  • I bought the phone for the looks. Serves that functions great. If you need a flashy phone that you just use to call and NOTHING else than its decent. Quite laggy in my opinion. I bought the phone after reading reviews and despite the negativity I still bought it because it looks good. But I'm thinking of getting a new one because the lag is really a nuisance. It's a beta phone so don't ask for much. It's cheap.

  • hi bro sory my english is bad. firts iam agree with you 100% i love this phone so much. if you have modificated this phone,it will be more impresive. you can look in forums at www.dotsis.com or www.persian-forums.com. look at symbian uiq3 forum

  • but a great phone.

  • Hi, i want to ask about the opera browser, it's support flash player or not?

  • hi guys, i got this cell after hunting for 3 months....great phone with great features. I wanted this cell, bcoz it dont have camera. The Sony manufactures have stopped the production of this cell, now if you get this cell, then you are very lucky. I sold off my E61 for M600i. I would suggest to all those who want to buy a business phone, go for M600i or W950i, but the difficult/sadest part is that both the cells out of production. Till date I havent faced any issues with the cell, or if it gives any trouble in future, it will be as same as the other PDA/Business Phones. I have exchanged 3 phones before this (N72,X250i,E61).This is best of lot. Please be aware of some tips that I follow: 1) Always keep the brightness low upto 40% & also close the applications from task manager after use.(This saves your battery life). 2) Keep in mind that this is a business phone and not music phone, so limited use of music will help your cell to function more effectively. Music is an added function in phone. If you are more intrested in music then I would suggest the better option is TV set or Radio FM. 3) With respect ot M2 cards (MB/GB), always remember, if you use any cards, do not fill up the cards to the max of the limit, else your cell function/speed will be slow. 4) I think people who are into business class or who have to deal with emails and lot of office work, even when they are not at office, this phone helps the cause. But students category must avoid as they would not love it. 5)Lastly, treat cell as one of luxuaries,which help you to take good care of it. I have also read some people creeping about no camera, but I fail to understand why these guys went for this cell, as it did not have camera since production.

  • I just tried the phone, and its quite ok. The only really anoying thing (actually 2) are: When you write a sms with the stylus it doesnt make the words I mean, or it makes them small and big mixed. And the keyboard, very anoying, 2 letters on one key. But you can get used to it. Overall, quite ok, but I prefer a little bit more features and faster internet.

  • Hello people. I am using the Nokia E61i now. I might replace it with an M600, but I wanna know is the speaker (for calling) and for music have a high voice? Please reply as soon as possible! Thanx all

  • To 'anonymouse' who is looking for screen alignment: go to Main Menu>Tools>Control Panel>Other>Setup Wizard. Then, just click 'Next' until you find the screen alignment page. Good luck! Fyi: I myself write this on my M600 and use 'Opera Mini' browser. It works flawless in my opinion.

  • this phone is one of d best phones dat can b offered in this range. it offers maximum utility and is best for professionals who want their phone for work as wel as leisure. all in all itz d best phone i have used till date.

  • this phone i fantastic, yes should have had camera but SE wanted it to be used for wat i really is and its not a phone for kids. it for people who want a phone and pc in one not a portable camera like todays common ones. this phone is on point I HAVE ONE AND PEOPLE ALWAYS ASK WERE DID I GET IT.

  • Nice phone, just wont forget to get a protective film for your screen, battert lasts for 3-4days, no issues, very nices software from SE, very easy and cool firmware upgrade, got tom tom everything works perfectly just like Sony Ericsson :)

  • does this phone has microphone?

  • To boyboy: I suggest you to go to gmail site to find out the setting and parameters, because it's too much to explain here. Good luck!

  • Go upgrading the latest firmware to Sony Ericcson service center in your town.

  • hey there from Phillipines... its great that you wanna buy an M600i... but FYI it has got some glitches... I heard that it stalls a lot, but installing the firmware upgrade from SE cures that. Now I wanna buy an M600 too .. but I am not sure how u upgrade the firmware. If you can find out about that can u plz let me know??? And anyone, can u plz tell me how I can get the firmware upgrade for M600i???

  • hey .. can anyone please tell me where I can get the Firmware upgrade for M600??? I'm planning to buy M600 but wud just like to make sure that I will be able to upgrade the firmware as soon as I buy it ... I heard that its got some glitches and the latest firmware cures those!!!

  • Yes it syncs up to Outlook. It will not keep you deleted messages from your computer though, you can locally delete them from your phone if you feel the need to keep them.

  • Does it synchronise to MS OUtlook?

  • please tell me why my m600 software have problem,always hang and memory full..bla bla bla...help me what the solution...

  • Hi. I dont have that mobile but am thinking to buy one what do you think whats beter M600 or M608 Thx.

  • It is possible if m600 to have same OS like w950 has since both of them us same Symbian UIQ 3.0 operating system Considering m600 has Mega Bass equalizer like w950 so audio quality will be similar to w950 if you use headset like HPM-70 which used by all Walkman series

  • yes i hve m600i,it is easy to use,,its great and all who see me using this kind of smartphone,,they are intersted...goodluck sonyericsson

  • Hi,can anyone tell me,if the sound quality is the same on this phone as on W950? Can you also recommend me some good mp3 player for this phone? And video player as well:) Thx

  • Hey all! I have a M600 for about 1 year now. Recently i saw somewone in the bus with a m600 but having an identical o s like w950? is that possible or was it some kind of theme?

  • So could you give parameters or setting for Gmail that works on m600 POP3

  • It does support SSL POP3 email accounts. I set up my GMail account onto it and works perfectly.

  • To anyone who's about to get this phone, I quite like the simple design and the keyboard, that takes sometime to get used to but then it is excellent. M2 can greatly upgrade its capacity to 8gb rather than the 4gb in the W950, but I really wouldn't suggest this phone at all for media purposes - playlists are extremely difficult to make, I managed to have coreplayer installed on it, but the sound quality is nothing like the onboard player. The onboard media player still produces excellent sound, just like all other sony mobile phones.

  • Yes it supports 3G but only for downloading data and not for video calling because it doesn't have camera.

  • How about 3G?

  • very good display , i am using it as modem and working nicely in 3G areas. opera mini browser works well.i can check my mails and can comunicate hotmail and yahoo messengers thorough opera mini. i was unable to push my mails into my mobile. I purchased it for 600-SR (160 USD)so good price /benefit ratio. one should not expect a camera in this price range in a smart phone Battery drains quickly if ur surfing , thats why i have to keep another mobile for my normal voice communication. still i love it.

  • No M600 doesn't support Wifi. Buy P990, P1, or W960 for Wifi

  • Does the M600 Support WiFi since i dont get how the OS works.

  • Great phone with great cost X benefit.

  • Would you swap this mobile for Nokia N80?

  • you can put a 4GB micro sd card in m600i have and i dont have any problem the phone is great.....

  • Yes I can use jogdial and touchscreen to click links on Opera Mini 3.1.8295 and should work on version 4.xx too. @Rush Find some links to latest firmware info at You still can setup POP3 email as long as it doesn't need SSL like www.gawab.com

  • @boyboy Can u use the jog dial to scroll and the touchscreen to click on links in Opera mini?

  • Same problem, I can't send or receive email from my M600.. :( R it's not bcoz the firmware?? some1 tell me plis, is there any firmware update available 4 M600? some people says that mine is the latest (phone: R9F001, organizer: R6A16), is that true??

  • It looks like same experience to me. AFAIK its email client doesn't support SSL that really needed if you want open Gmail or Yahoo thru POP3 server.

  • I am using this baby, the white version has more beautiful look. A great phone for browsing internet thru Opera Mini with easy touchscreen. If you want a faster operating response you should upgrade to the latest firmware at SE service center, only install any applicaton or save data to memory card, disable transition option, and disable handwriting recognition. Good luck

  • m600i, the best smartphone!! ilove this phone very much. iam in indonesia. does anyone know about yahoo go on m600i, iwant this software.

  • m600i, the best smartphone!! ilove this phone very much. iam in indonesia. does anyone know about yahoo go on m600i, iwant this software.

  • The phone is very cool, one of the best I have before my old S700. I don't care about lack of camera, since I've bought this phone less then U$300.00 including Brazillian taxes (one of the most expensive of the world). The 3G is great and the screen is incredible! I also bought a memory expansion card to 2 GBs very cheap. Very nice phone, I do recommend.

  • i realy love this phone but i will appreciate it, if sony ericsson can make a prototype of this product with camera. thanks

  • is display works good?

  • if u want m-600 with camera then u should buy p-1

  • i really like this phone but how come there's no camera?! darnn,, i wish this phone has camera!!

  • Amazing phone! It has everything I want! It is a smartphone, it has plenty of options, it lighweight, compact and very confortable. So I've got pretty fast web internet, great access to e-mail. and if on the first glance, it may occure that typing an sms will be a really frustrating, it really is not. It is quite easy to use and type :) I prefered it to P990 for several reasons. It is faster Is is not so big (I cannot carry P990 in my pocket, it's tooooooo big) I never use Wi-Fi I have canon 30D always with me :D

  • I don't feel any difference in speed with the 4GB. Was using 1GB before the upgrade.

  • Yes, the M600 smartphone accepts 2GB micro memory stick (M2). I don't know if it accepts 4GB memory card.

  • i am useing M600i and planing to update its memory just wondring does it slows down the M600i specially with 4 gb

  • This phone supports up to 4gb. I'm using it in my phone now.

  • whats the maxium memory support....does it support 2gb? Thanks

  • I hope Sony never sells this phone again (to the comment above me). My screen just failed on me and it is unresponsive now. I've had it for less than 6 months OS is slow and sluggish

  • Thanks falcon, I have updated the setting but the problem persists. Whenever i change to flight mode and again to phone mode, it works for a minute or so and then become unavailable. And i have set dial-up time out to "never". I tried to contact sony ericsson on it but i got the same reply.

  • after you updated your new firmware, your gprs most be downloaded again via network, and you can all ready open the internet.

  • You can also check amazon.com, you may be able to purchase one from the marketplace

  • In Czech rep. shops still sells M600. € 210,- !

  • hey why sony don't sell this phone Anymore? everywhere is sold out. could someone tell me where i have to buy this phone.. i really loved this phone!!!!!!!

  • very good phone, along with P990 and P1, sony ericsson is the best

  • I have a problem with my phone after the new firmware update. It gives a message that gprs is unavailable. so i can't connect to the net. I there a way to solve this? Does it mean the gprs hardware is defective?

  • PLEASe heLP HOW CAN I install new themes i've downloaded some with extenzion .utz and i cannnot install them help help help

  • Question: 1. does it good with ebuddy or agile? I need the messenger 2. does the wifi works well? I need it 3. does the email works with Symbian 9.x? I want to put gmail inside, can you help me?

  • I've always thought that the M600 was a brilliant idea but very poor execution. I was about ready to dump this phone in the trash because of all the problems mentioned here but I gave it one last try and upgraded to the latest firmware (as of Nov 2007). Surprisingly, it became stable and speedy. It was really a firmware problem after all. My plans to buy a new phone are now on hold.

  • I instantly sold my N73 when I heard about this phone. But now, I wanna sell it for a brand new P1i!!

  • The Sony Ericsson M600i is a decent phone. It�s at it�s EOS (End of service) and that means there will be no more updates to the phone. Which isn�t good, because it still has several bugs. Other then that, it doesn�t have WiFi. Wifi can cut you costs when at home or abroad when checking wapsites, email or doing other things which need an internet connection. There�s no camera on the phone. This is a big letdown. I would have settled for a mid-level 1.3mpx camera, I really love snapping shots at parties and mms�ing them to people. Can�t do that here. Also, what�s rather funny is that while it�s a 3G phone, (as mentioned above) there is absolutely NO camera. This means the caller can�t see you, but you can see them. You can choose a display picture to show, but it�s a lot more fun with living images! However, this is also a good thing. Many of us work in areas where cameras are NOT allowed. This means that those of us who do work in restricted areas can carry their phones with them. Another beef I have with the phone is that there is no hard "Answer" or "Reject/Hangup" buttons. You constantly have to press the screen, which leaves oily finger marks. Other then that, and aside from the phone bogging down quite a lot when you have more then two or three programs opening, it�s a great phone. It�s got a gorgeous touch screen, decent processor speed and a lovely form factor. (Who knew that a brick can look so good? :p ) The case itself is made of light weight metal. This not only makes it look good, but also increases the feeling of quality. The new style keyboard (which is also on my P1i, which is modeled after this phone) does take some time getting used to. It�s not all that bad, after about ten or fifteen minutes, it�s like second nature. I enjoy the QWERTY keyboard layout, which helps me when I have to edit documents on the go. I�m not a big fan of touch screens, so I prefer a phone to either have a QWERTY keyboard, or both a QWERTY keyboard AND touch screen. I�m usually a Nokia Communicator fanboy, I currently use the E90, but the Sony Ericsson M600i helped me realize that there ARE other phones on the market worth your time and money. The M600i is one of those phones. So those of you considering purchasing a second hand M600i, you won�t be dissapointed. But if you can afford it, go with the P1i, which is a heavly updated version of the M600i. MK

  • It is a good phone but it lacks camera,HAS GOOD LOOOOOKS................

  • I bought this phone about 2 months ago. Though This is not the phone i wanted. But overall i like the phone. problems i faced 1. some times slow.If 3/4 application run in back. (go to task manager and close them it will start working faster but then web brouser will take more time to open.) 2. Slow boot up time when you start the phone from off status. (no way... you have to go with this...) 3. to write SMS If you go to next line with the enter button more than one sms will be send. you have to write total 160 character without making any paragraph... ha ha. i don't know how i can make this ok. 4. when connecting with i am facing problem. some times connecting with usb, the pc don't found any mobile phone connected. same thing happned with IR port. and i could not connect the phone with blue tooth (I tried but failed. only thing i could do that is i used the bluetooth for using the internet using the phone as modem. that worked fine.) 5. It's tough setup internet account to this phone. I had to do it with my pc. once i delete the account and it took huge time to reconfigure it again. These are my personal experience and I will update if i give any wrong information. thanks all

  • well... i used this phone... excited to have it 4 the fisrt time. but now, this phone feel bored. m600i has a great power on connection to intrnet i love it. but sometimes this phone "lag" n automatically restart. well......... i think w950 is better but the w960 is the greatest hahahaha

  • maybe its a ram problem, to check how much ram available ,on standby screen click more then status. Then use the task manager to close all the apps Well usually i turned off my phone everynight and in the morning when i turn on its get about 19mb and everything workout smoothly I this can help

  • I just bought this phone 2 weeks ago and I was quite satisfied until it started to lag. My phone's now having a problem accessing the contact list when I try to write a new text message. It's really lagging behind as if the contact list is continuously loading. Anyone had the same or similar problem like mine? Anyone knows the solution to this problem?

  • hi guys!! i like to give u all a solution for a problem u might have with this mobile (m600i) the problem: the touchscreen at bad whether behaves unexpectedly. the solution: 2-stages viz 1)warming-up 2)cooling down. try dry-warming up the screen first (note the words dry and warm that means no water and no moisture). i got a lpg stove. i warmed my phone screen by flaming up the stove keepin the stove in very low flame. covered a portion of the screen with my finger (to ensure that the screen is not getting over heated). if u find a problem like a button in the screen is always activated then press the screen in exactly the other extreme side for example if ur bottom right button on the screen is activated spontaneously then press the top left portion of the screen with finger and warm it up. do this until the your finger pressing the screen is not burnt (be careful if ur finger is hurt the screen might also-fool-proof) after warming up wrap the mobile in a light plastic cover and keep it in the freezer for 3 to 4 minutes. doing this moulds the profile of the flat screen ensuring an even surface for equal press response. u can repeat the procedure if the problem is not solved. i got my problem solved in my first trial.

  • Sum1 that already hav M600, pliz tell me what is d pros n cons between this M600 and W950?? Thx U!

  • hey i just bought this phone, have to wait for it to be delivered though lol. it was a choice between this and p990 and p1 the p1 was too expensive and the p990 was a brick! i dont need a camera, i hardly used it on my n70. the question i have it wot converter shoul i use to conver tv episodes, i bought 1gb card but surly there is a way to make them smaller so they are less than 350mb each. is there any free and effective software for converting??? also is there any free programs worth putting on this thing, i need it for uni mostly and for wheni am travelling on a train, feel free to reply here or email!! CANT WAIT TILL I GET MY HANDS ON THIS AWSOME CAMPACT PHONE! GO SE!!

  • This is a very good phone, only problem is that it doesnt have a camera but the sony ericsson P1 compensates for that loss. All that asside its a phone that deserves an award of some sort......

  • Same here, uses 2GB & is ok, only thing is tat when selecting songs, it may lag about 2 sec.

  • I have been using a Sandisk 2GB M2 micro for last 6 months and doesn't seem to have any problems with it.

  • Let me help you out Halley, to replace or change the pics of the standby icons, highlight the icon and click more. Choose replace to put your frequently used application, and edit to use your own pics either from phone or memory card. I have all 5 icon changed to Arsenal logo, because im a gunner.

  • Can this phone work with 2G of eksternal memory (M2) ? Please let me know... This is my email : [email protected]

  • this phone is great. once we're getting used to it, it's all you need. no camera, yes, but this phone is still cool. customizable, (we should be smart.ha!)

  • Yes the five shortcut bars can be changed. Da trick is to do something on the stand by screen. man cant remember how i did it. you can assign different pictures to the shortcuts aswell.will post up how to do it when i remember.

  • two more thing : can the five shortcut icons on the standby display be change to other one? can the screen saver slideshow be set longer? for exmaple i put five photo in my slideshow but when the screen saver slideshow start, it can only display until the third photo before the screen turn black. please again... thank everyone......

  • I guess the only way you can brighten up the screen is to increase its brightness in the settings. the themes for this phone can be downloaded for free from mobile9.com. just have to copy and paste the themes onto the memory card or phone memory.

  • Just downgraded from E65 to M600i due to work place restriction of camera. M600i,An extreme "hang" phone...upgraded the software is even worst. Application for this phone in e net is limited,function not as good as it look. Do Not consider to get this phone, Your blood pressure will sure shoot up...i got this phone for about a month>>>everyday encounter problems & daily standard procedure is to take out the battery to restart as the screen hang in it's screen lock mode...

  • Thank you Prihantoro ! Already done that. I guess my M600 has a software problem cuz no way the 3G goes off. Otherwise, very happy about this gadget.

  • Hi, Need Help pls. Cant seem to read anything on screen during day/public - when out. Have been staying indoors only.HELP. What can i do to make the screen more visible during daytime? any where i can get themes? - if thats gonna help?

  • sup,ppl! i'm trying to buy this phone and doing a research.. how does this phone work with T-mobile??? i'm just getting nervous that this phone is triband phone... so not good with t-mobile.. anybody using this phone w/ t-mobile, let me hear from you. thanks

  • This phone was the weirdest phone I have ever had in my life. I have had 8 previous phones before this one and this one was by far the second worst. The worst one I had which I reommend not to buy is the Q-tec 110. The first day I bought it the screen broke. It was one of those calculator screeens. This phone was terrible to because djuring the second week I bought it IT deleted all my savings. It wasnt me and even the guy who worked at the repair store told me that this pphone looses its memory very eaily because practically all the phones memory goes to the bacrounds. It has over 120 backrounds which is goood but losing your memory because of that reasoning is bad.

  • To Dany: Go to Main Menu>Tools>Control Panel>Connections>Mobile Networks, then press "More" on the bottom right of your screen and select GSM/3G Networks. Voila! You have to disable 3G networks by selecting "GSM only". I myself also prefer GSM only networks because I rarely use that high speed 3G. Hope it helps...

  • wifi feature was better than a Camera. wifi = 0$ for browsing and messaging. :p

  • Can someone enlighten me about features in M600: does it really have GPS capability, if so, what software do I need to get/buy? Also, is the P1i not an M600 slapped with a camera simply?

  • guys this fone is super gd for NS ppl no camera but u wil hav other svc...

  • Hi all! Just bought a M600 last week. Very happy about its performance except one thing. Can't turn off the 3G (switch to GSM network).I tried manually, but still the 3g remains on. And this drain my battery life in just 24 hours. If someone knows the solution, please post it. Greetings !

  • dunno what useless phone that guy below has, but i doubt is was an M600i. This phone is unbelieveable! have owned an N95, n91, d900, tytn,k800i and this phone kills them all. never freezes!

  • To Kong; Yes you can have specific ringtones for certain people, also the image you assign to the person does show when you call or receive a call.

  • to vicki: to use a ringtone for spcfic person: view one contact > choose 'tone' symbol (on d right) > edit > menu 2 change RT appears. n yeah, d pctures pop up to yahia: in call log: more > compact mode hope tht helps

  • can someone answerrrrr these questions, please? :) can you personalize a ringtone for a specific person? does the picture of the caller pop up when they call?

  • new firmware r9f011 works really great... fast navigation, no hung ups, loud tone.. i like my fw now than b4

  • I've had this phone for almost a year now and love it. I love the idea of being able to multitask like talking on the phone and sending SMS or checking the phone book or even accessing the internet while on the call. I can watch my recorded showes or even convert movies to watch on the phone. MP3 is great, the speakers sound loud enough. GPS works great for both Wayfinder.com and Google Map (free). I've also bought the 1 Gig memory card to extend my recorded movies and shows and MP3 useage.

  • hi dude. its a realy great phone. but i have some problems here. does any1 know how to turn notification tones off (sound when u close/cancel calls, etc)? tried to explore the phone but culdn't find any menu how to do it.. got GPRS & jog dial problem, like some ppl here do. can u ppl give me some advices? im realy hoping for reply. thank you very much

  • I would like to know if using the aac or the mp3 format if it is possible to watch movies? if not what format can this phone play movies? thanks.

  • Hi ppl, i bought dis phone 4 days ago and im happy with it, simple and classy. For those who complain about low memory and hangs, i will advise anyone buying any phone to know whar they are buying. If u open too much more of application than dis gadget's ram can handle, of course u're sure to get memory low message. I dont understand why one will leave so many applications running unnecessarily. I always have 2 or 3 at any given time, and for 4 days i have not experience any hangs. I have opera 4 beta which is very cool especially setting it to landscape mode, i always have IM which is d only application that runs for 24 hours.

  • i have a white m600, does anyone have any problems with it getting dirty? coz mine is getting abit brown =\ lol

  • Does this phone have a radio? I have been looking at specs from different sources and no one can tell me conclusively that it does?

  • I am curious and interested to know how if the firmware of W900 is installed into M600i phone set, will they be any configuration problem as the keypad for W900 posed to be different from M600i and other features as well. How about those features in W900 can it be functioning in M600i as well ? I had downloaded the firmware for W800i to K750i and it seems ok, so far no problem yet as they're identical unlike W900 & M600i. Have anyone try it before ??

  • H! friends. i BUY this Mobile Today. its working okay if there is any problem with this Mobile can Any one tell me like battery,software problem ,,,,hmm maybe can change it?

  • in response, for the m600, welltrue u didn;t use any memory even for a picture but the thing is you prob opened too many apps. when it means memory full it prob means ur ram, just like a computer it can open a certain # of apps limited by the available memory you have. so if you open too many and its full then of coz you gotta quit some apps. just go to task manager.

  • Maybe you have too many applications open at the same time... so your phone freezes. It's got nothing to do with the physical disk space available on your phone if i'm not mistaken. Jst make sure to close a few with the task handler to keep the phone running smoothly.

  • hi, I just got my phone a couple of days ago, barely used any memory, not even a single picture, but the phone keeps saying memory full. then it freezes and i have to take the battery out and restart. any suggestions? So frustrating.

  • Hi, I just got my M600i. Can anyone teach me where and how to update the firmware to W950? Can this phone use as GPS? Thank alot.

  • Was thinking of getting this phone but now I see that SE has stopped production! A bit sceptical now. Anyway I was wondering if I get the phone what FW version is installed on factory Sim Free mobiles and what is the newest FW available for the M600i? Also will production also cease on the W950i? Thanks for any feedback.

  • SE has stopped its production because it is being replaced by newer, better models

  • SE M600i is an excellent phone. Good features, but unfortunately SE said it has stopped production of M600i.

  • hey does anyone have a problem when the phone keeps on restarting again and again i do is that normal or is it that it is something wrong

  • @tonsor, Some message u received is crashing the messaging app. Take a backup of the phone. Do not take a backup of messages. Master reset the phone. Your problem might be solved. Then restore whatever u need.

  • OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!! Now that i have your attention, I just found out that it is true that the w950i firmware is compatible in this phone! check this out:

  • hi last week i came with my problem thinking that i was doing the rit thing since then i hvn't got any ansew. from you the only ansr......... was that < mean .......... nothing .... problem, i am using the phone for 1mounth now but i still don't understand it i got some messages by bleuthoo since that i could't open my inbox any time i try this appear on my screen Application = messaging Reason code = user reason number 130 and under continue this the only problem that i m facing pls i hope to hear very soon from you thank wat i received hi all, if there's any problem using m600 then u should take it to the service centre and ask for to upgrade the software. it may solve your problem. thanx..

  • hi all, if there's any problem using m600 then u should take it to the service centre and ask for to upgrade the software. it may solve your problem. thanx..

  • To jeremy: It doesn't, but you can buy a stereo headset from SE that has a GPS module built in. I am not sure if it is availabe yet but it does have backwards compatibility from K800i upwards, which includes the M600i. You will need a third party application like Google Maps though. Hope this helps... but check the SE Homepage.

  • for few days my touchscreen is not working. it stopped working all of a sudden.what to do????

  • i am using the phone for 1mounth now but i still don't understand it i got some messages by bleuthoo since that i could't open my inbox any time i try this appear on my screen Application = messaging Reason code = user reason number 130 and under continue this the only problem that i m facing pls i hope to hear very soon from you thank

  • true. its does freeze lol i almost forgot about that.

  • I've owned this phone for quite a while and I can say that it is great for business users! it has everything you need and it works brilliant. the touchscreen is really nice, good response and color/brightness. the keys are great, after a few days I was able to write on the device very fast and it is comfortable. the UIQ 3 works OK..it freezes sometimes(rarly but still...). all in all it's a great phone! I personaly love it!

  • i got this phone two months ago, so far i dont have any problems using it. its a great phone. anyone knows whether turbo msn can be installed to this phone. i mean since its having a different OS than the other symbians. thanks. =D

  • does this fone have a navigator(gps)?

  • ive been using m600 for 10 month and is amazing phone... uiq 3 is the smartest OS.. good for business.. good for entertainment ( lot of good 3d games and great earphone sounds ).. sure lack of internal memory ( 80mb ) is the only problem that cause hangs.. but maybe there willbe another m series that will bebetter than this one

  • Grego: yes the preinstalled version of quick office does allow you to edit word and excel, however i have never used excel myself because i dont even know how to use it on the computer. honestly the quick word is fine, types a decent 100 words before it starts lagging, then start a new document with a new paragraph - something that can be improved but can still cope. as with the "inconsistancy" what i mean is that i find it slightly irritating when (ie. call a new number but then cant save the number to existing contant.) problem isnt too big but could be improved to save much more time. no name: yes you can use your fingers instead of the stylus to make calls and end calls. there are on-screen buttons on the bottom that act just like the softkey functions you would see in a normal phone. sms: maybe try send it back to factory for a warranty.

  • if you are a user for business purposes, there is NO communicator better than M600

  • can you use your fingers just to anwser and send calls?

  • i got this cell for 6 months now.i m having promlem with the jog diel.it junmp 3 or 4 times at a single move. what's the solution???

  • can you surf the internet for free or does it waste your credit?

  • zago: the touchscreen doesnt lock when you're in a call, but the only things to touch when you are in a call are icons like "end call" towards the bottom of the display but its small. ive never encountered problems with the touchscreen whilst in a call.

  • which SE fone is the best text msg fone

  • To mikel: Thanks for you informative opinion. I really appreciate an honest point of view. I am thinking of getting one in white as well. Also I assume that if you have typed out a few assignments, you can edit word an exel documents? As far as the OS is concerned... do you mean that in some circumstances there is not a consistent flow navigating through the OS?

  • does the touchscreen lock when your talking to someone?

  • seani boi: good point. i dont think it'll be compatible because of the different input of keyboard. if it works you wont be able to use the keys except for the numerics. AND w950 doesnt have a memory slot so you wont be able to acess files on your M2 if you have the w950 firmware. this is just my assumption though, you can give it a try.

  • M600i i have this phone for about 3 months now and quite content with it. only concern is the lack of RAM which causes alot of lag especially in the messaging department. the lag in the phone is due to the Symbian OS 9.1 because the new (at that time) OS is too much for the specs of the phone to handle. the music player here is fine, also has mega bass and i believe it is not much different to those wich bare the WALKMAN logo. this smartphone's apps are very decent and i like to congratulate that considering how old this model is it is still very powerful. some parts of the user interface UIQ 3.0 are not too consistant and i hope they are corrected on the P1 and up coming W960. as far as the contriversal concern about the keyboard and typing, i personally find it quite enjoyable to type on it (i have typed a few physics assignments and english essays on the train) and its actually not as bad as some reviews i have read. an advice i have for those who own one is to keep the auto-keylock ON because there have been a few instances where my phone made calls whilst in my pocket and thats $30 credit gone lol. i own a white m600i and surely attracts alot of attention everywhere i go (even the ladies) so for a business smartphone it definitely excels in aesthetics i rate this phone 7.8/10 (on a fair basis, no bias)

  • is it possible for me to flush a w950i firmware in m600i? because i totally want the qwerty so bad but i also love the walkman player. does anyone know if this is possible?

  • I just Upgrade the firmware at Sony Center in my town. (R6A16). it's awesome. Sound gets Louder(include WMA playback), response faster. Neverless, I enjoy this Smart phone.

  • This Phone is Fabulous..good phone, battery backup and video calling as well.

  • can any one tel me tht if this set supports mpeg4 playbck??plz bcuz im about to buy it...

  • It is a good phone but a little expensive for whats it got (i would advice u to buy the w950i)

  • Well there is a problem with the amount of ram (I can't open some word or txt files over 500kb). But I can open web pages offline and they work perfectly (no mater the size). I figured out how to activate the games that require only numbers, tap alt twice and then you don't need to hold it anymore in the games.

  • who would like to buy a cell phone vid no camera these days ..........i like dat fone nice in shape n everything but i cnt even imagint to take a fone havin no cvamera in it........

  • I have to ask this again: I have a problem with my phone after the new firmware update. It gives a message that gprs is unavailable. so i can't connect to the net. I there a way to solve this? Does it mean the gprs hardware is defective?

  • with the QWERTY of this phone, you can type pretty fast, at first you need to get used to it but later on, you can type faster compared to the standard keypads and accurately as well.

  • okay people got a problem with ur fone?!?! just bloody update it with sony ericsson update software!!! (sorry for the screaming but hey, im helpin rite?)

  • The keypad is unusual. Mmm...butterfly keys. Can someone give me a true appraisal of typing experience on the QWERTY. Can one type fast and accurately??

  • no problem with me if the phone has no camera, can you post pics of the rumored phone?thnx!

  • "any rumors of what the next m series would be?" You're must be waiting for the FCC confirmed "M610". this is now incorporated with WiFi, and same 128Mb RAM 256 ROM found in P1(which means no more RAM Leaks and restarts!) and just like M600, it doesn't have a camera, BTW. if you are opting for camera, go to P1 :)

  • I have recently changed my M600i for the Nokia E61i, I have been a loyal Sony Ericsson user for some years and upgraded to this phone earlier this year, unfortunatly it was a huge disapointment, constantly locking up or shutting down, I need a business phone that's up to the job, this wasn't, the problem code KERN-EXEC appears to be linked to RAM, when RAM is low this appears and shuts down applications, you can download swissmanager, which is a task manager that displays the amount of RAM currently in use, I liked the phone and if you can put up with it occasionally crashing then i still believe it's a good choice, it's not for me though.

  • I got this phone a week ago. I wonder why I couldn't change Message alert. There's always appear "Application Closed, Appication Sound & Alert, Reason Code KERN-EXEC, Reason number 3" What's this means? Please... anyone can help?

  • i just want to know does this work for t-mobile us? and can i bluetooth ringtones etc.. and put a ringtone for text msg and contacts? and which color you think is the best for a girl i like the white but the black looks nice too thanks

  • is it able to edit word or excel??? cos i need cell that able to do this...

  • I got this phone 2 weeks ago, updated it from the SE website. Everything seems fine, but the alarm ring is REALLY SOFT, and it is at its highest volume. Anyone has the same problem?

  • I just got mine about 2 weeks ago. I love it. No trouble with it yet.

  • any rumors of what the next m series would be?

  • any new firmware update for the m600?

  • Where Did You Get The Phone From ?? S$ 348 . . Comes With What ??

  • Good product but highly priced.

  • I bought the phone, I was thinking of buying either M600 or P990, but I didn't need a camera and the the keyboard is good enough. The cons: Some games require you to hold alt (to activate numbers). Some videos don't work, while others might be choppy. But since I bought the phone recently there might be ways to overcome these problems. The pros: I'd have to write a lot down, but I'll say the most impressive things. It has a Picture editor!!! Crop, resize, color! So almost all pics can be perfect wallpapers! The possibilities are countless, the file manager is awesome. And the phone is highly customizable (even though I am not a business man). Like my friend said "its not a phone its a computer"

  • I am questioning the durability of the touch screen monitor, since I usually carry the cell phone on my pocket. Is there any other user ever broke the screen NOT because of some accident? Thanks

  • re m600 hi i have the same problem...any suggestions ?!

  • I have a problem with my phone after the new firmware update. It gives a message that gprs is unavailable. so i can't connect to the net. I there a way to solve this? Does it mean the gprs hardware is defective?

  • it cost about 348$, by the way i am using singapore dollars.

  • i really feel like getting this phone, but i am having some doubts about it, so i hops you guys out there can help me answer the doubts. Is this phone able to surf the net? and if it's able to, how does it surf the net? using GPRS? or something else? thnx in advance for answering my doubts. hope to hear from u guys soon, thnx so much

  • hey vin., the w950 is alot better than this phone look in the memory 4gb-80mb....

Re : YES, there's a way, I have tried it an it works, I sell my symbyan OS base phone and bought a PPC base one.. walla.. it's works very well

  • What is the difference between the m600 and the m608?can't differentiate them based on looks and with features..pls help, thanx!

  • Hey Arash,. Thanks. But I'm Still Really Confused. W950 Hangs Every Now & Than ??

  • Of course if you are looking for a phone with nice music quality, both have great music quality but for me the w950 has a better music quality, now,regarding the performance of the phones, m600 does pretty well, no hangs nor bugs, it won't crash, nice phone overall, only lacks the camera but no problem for me as well, the QWERTY keyboard as well is nice and you can type faster using that. overall both phones are great so no regrets in getting them, choose any, both phones are great!

  • Hey Guys. How You Doing ? Well , This Phone Is Kinda Cool. Well , Would You Guys Choose M600i Or W950 ?? Im Confused Which Phone To Get. I Don't Need A Camera. I Need A Good Sound Quality Player (eg. Listening To Musics Using The Headset ), When I'm Typing A Long Sms / Text It Doesn't Lags / Hang , The Phone Doesn't Hangs / Lag When Your Switching Programs Or In Inbox . Both Have Mostly The Same Functions. Which One Would You Guys Choose , W950 Or M600i ?? Do Let Me Knw Which One Is Betta . Thanks

  • Anyone tried before from Symbian OS upgrade to PPC base? If yes, can anyone let me know, as i'm very interested changing the OS. Thank you very much!!

  • By the way any games that can be runned on the M600i? i downloaded some java games but they require the number pad... i end up having to hold the alt key and press the buttons to play the game >

  • A follow up regarding the SE official P990 and W950 firmware update termination: SE decided to continue the firmware development for P990 and W950 phone with the promise of one more firmware update. Here's the official response: In response to recent feedback from users and as a result of additional internal testing, Sony Ericsson has determined to offer a further firmware update for the P990 and W950 Walkman� phone. This move illustrates Sony Ericsson�s ongoing commitment to its existing �smartphone� customers and the company�s desire to be responsive to customer feedback in order to provide an optimal user experience. The next firmware release for the P990 and W950 will be available from the Sony Ericsson Update Service from August 2007. --> Sad thing was that M600 is not included for the benifit of once more update :(

  • hey, what is the lastest firmware version for this phone, and is there an official website that i can go to in order to check?

  • open control pannel, Time & Date, Click more, set Work days, here u can change the week starting day. Thank You. Cheers

  • The calendar function on this phone has various views: daily, weekly, and monthly. I prefer the monthly view, I havent had a problem with it yet, but wonder if there is a way to change the view of the calendar settings. It seems it defaults with Monday being the first day of the week (it shows mon tue wed thur fri sat sun). I am used to seeing Sunday first (sun mon tue wed thur fri sat) is there any way to make this change?

  • can this phone support 2gb memory card?

  • Sony ericsson has discontinued development of firmware for M600, w950 and P990 smartphones. They use M600i version as the base for their new P1 and even the message tells, the new P1 has more memory, more stability. Good SE phone, the final firmware version of M600 is R6A16. See this link for more updates

  • its a nice looking mob. if its upgrade ver would have good camera then that ll definately increase the SE sales & repo

  • Hi guys this iz Rusty i m using this phone from long period its very good phone u can say. its good looking phone with very good features as its a touch screen mobile with pda screen try this its Better then others.

  • Hi guys its true! In Singapore here almost all shops sold out the white version!! and will be discontinued soon! I got mine at carrfour at the Orange handphone shop.Cost me only Sin$398! Kick ass phone!! Get it while u can!

  • should have a camera

  • Why would you want to carry something around as teeny and terrible as a side kick, you should have thrown that away when you were 14. This looks great and works great, if you don't like the stylus then just use your fingers. I manage just fine.

  • Guys get this phone while you can, It has been officially discontinued by SE starting from July. This is possibly the last SE business phone with no camera. I got mine this week and its worth every penny.

  • hey im only 17 and i was wondering if this fone is or isnt suitable for me? i'm quite hesitant to get it, i dont mind not having a camera in the phone but i just really want a phone with a Qwerty keyboard, besides the sidekick. Any ideas??? thanks so much! =)

  • The GPS reciever will work with all J2ME enabled fones from K800i till present, or so I have heard.

  • Has anyone tried to use this phone with a network that supports only frequencies 850 & 1900?? I'm with FIDO and I was told reception would be really spotty with this phone since it doesn't support frequency 850 but I don't know how much to trust a FIDO representative.

  • hey.. is that newly launched GPS receiver HGE-100 works with M600???????

  • Anyone know the gprs settings for Roger Wireless in Canada to enter into this handset i cannot access the net

  • hi all have anyone face the problem not enough memory

  • thanx man! hehe,can't read the manual, can't read the manual, it's in a different language,hehe..thanx by the way!

  • than man! hehe,can't read the manual, can't read the manual, it's in a different language,hehe..thanx by the way!

  • ^.^: I think you push it in until you hear a click, then it'll pop out a bit. At this point, pull it out. Putting it back in, just insert, and push until you hear a click. At least that's how the M2 is removed/inserted on the K800i. Read your manual ;)

  • Yup, it can support 1gb m2 card..

  • you need to insert it by a sharp object (like pen) and it will spring out then you can remove it.And while inserting it you have to be careful as there should be spring action after the card is placed then you can inserted it completely.

  • Can anyone teel me if i it is compatible to upgrade the memory stick to 1GB?.

  • how do you remove the m2 memory card?do you push it until you hear a click or you just pull it out right away?

  • Thinking of buying this handset and would like to know the PC Requirements?

  • i heard there is a way to access the internet even though the phone does not have WIFI, is this true?? thanks

  • does it have msn messenger installed?

  • Can you create word and excel documents on this phone?

  • yup, you can play games with this, there are 2 preinstalled games, vijay singh pro golf and quadra pop, yup it has the m2 memory slot..

  • Interested in this phone but can anyone tell me whether you can play games on this? Also is there any memory card supplied with it

  • Handwriting recognition example: When you want to write letter "t" or "i" you just ad little dash for "t" and little point for "i".(so you can move stylus away from the touchscreen during writing on it,but just for a split of second). Anyway it is better to use qwerty or on screen keyboard.

  • the handwriting recognition works this way: you use the stylus to write a certian letter in the space provided when you create a message,then when you write a letter you shouldn't let go of the stylus until you have completely written the letter, then when you wrote it clearly, the phone will automatically input the closest match with your letter, it works 80% when i used it, hard to write the letters t cuz you can't really release the stylus..

  • Hey this seems like the ideal phone for me!! Ita affordable, has great features and since it has no camera, i cane even use it at work!! I work in contact centre and camera phones are banned for info security reasons and client confidentality. Just need to know one thind though.. how does the handwriting recognition work? it was not shown on the Video demo on this site!! will appreciate if some light could be thrown on this matter. Thanx everybody!! Keep rockin!

  • Can anybody tell me how to transfer an Excel file from PC to M600

  • what's the new name or format of the new firmware update?phone?bluetooth?organiser?cda?

  • it's almost perfect....why doesn't it have a camera?!!!...mr.sonyericsson....why?!

  • hey guys, a new update is out, i jst updated my phone on the 3rd of this month. one of the obvious changes i noticed was that u can now add a number from the menu rather than dialing before saving the number. i guess thats only obvious change in the new firware.

  • I got M600 and it is really nice phone. I had Nokia N80 but I like this better. To answer your question - it has Office - you can view and read Word, Excel and Powerpoint apps. You can also check your e-mail. Additionally you can buy some additional software which gives better possibilites to edit office documents. If you have another handy with camera and/or Wi-fi I strongly recommend M600 because it's cheap and has supreme business functionalities (qwerty keyboard rules, I am starting to write really fast on it, although you should have small fingers :)

  • then go, buy a brick, no ones forcing you to buy this phone, did anyone force you?i hope you'll like the brick that your going to buy using that 1000$! happy buying, as for me, i love this phone,can anyone update me when a new update of the firmware comes out, thnks!

  • To answer the previous two questions: No, you do not need the stylus to make a call or access the inbox. Dailing is done using the keypad, and accessing the inbox (along with most of the other menu functions) can be done using the jog-weel on the left side of the phone. Smarphone means a phone running an intelligent os (such as windows mobile or symbian). This phone uses UIQ3 as its OS, and can read and write word, excel, and powerpoint file. Hope this helps. Hugo

  • Can anybody explain what is meant by smart phone.Is there any software like MS word / Excel available with M600. I am in search of a mobile with these facilities at a lower price.Please send two minuts for me.

  • do you need to you use the pen thing to access your text inbox or to dial?

  • I'd rather pay 1000$ for a brick than paying 1$ for a mobile with no camera!!! even if it has a finger touch monitor!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • it is one of the best phone with a vido call

  • thanks. im guessing it was never meant to be and i probably get a dopod instead

  • i like the phone even without a camera, it doesn't bother me,it's a great phone..to robbo, i think you can't even start with the update cuz the update requires that you have full battery or even just half bat as long as it's not batt low, so if you can't charge i think you can't do the update, mybe you can just send it back and get a new one or buy a new battery..hope i helped..

  • who wants a mobile without a camera??????

  • to robbo, sorry to disappoint you but, i don't think you can even start the fimware updating cuz when you update the phone, you have to have full bat satus or even just a half but, just not bat empty, so.maybe you cant update it, mybe you can buy a new bat r send it bak to sony ericsson..hope i helped

  • my m600i tells me my battery needs to be replaced and when i plug it into the charger the battery life doesnt increase and stays at 0% i was wonder whether the upgrade to the new firmware this fault to be fixed. THANKS HEAPS and HEAPS

  • i upgraded the firmwareof my M600i, i did get all those, wma support,faster, louder through speakers but i didn't get the 20 mb free memory, but one more thing, the touchscreen responded better..and even if i didn't get the free 20 mb, this phone is still outstnding, evn without the camra, damn! this phones nice, but if they gave this a cmra, this would b the best which now is going to be the P1, holla!

  • hi can any one inform me how to get the software updated is there any coplications involved during updating soft ware

  • how do you upgrade the firmware?

  • the update you've done on march was already old, read my previous post about the latest version released on mid-april, and see the changes :D

  • I am actually a bit dissapointed :( Nice phone, good functionality but unstable software, it locks up sometimes and needs to have the battery out to turn off and reboot. The other day my touchscreen just stopped working, then it came back!! So yes, unstable software. Also having trouble with sync to PC, but that might be a PC problem (it's a new Dell with XP Pro though). Hmmm, what to do. and yes, I have upgraded the firmware in March when I got the phone.

  • to all M600i users: just upgrade your firmware to this latest version: Phone: >>CXC 162037 R9F011 Bluetooth: >>CXC 162058 R3A01 Organizer: >>CXC 162071 R6A16 CDA: >>CDA 162011/2 R6A13 you'll be achieving these "major" software changes: -Faster -WMA supoprt! -Transitions option found in control panel, device. Default is OFF -Updated build of opera which seems more stable -Louder through speaker -20.8MB free ram!!! source:

  • Hi!I'm really depressed!My touchscreen just stopped working!Help me out plz!Anyone guess what happened?

  • I just upgraded my phone firmware to the latest available (R9F011). And I can say now that my M600i runs fast without all the transitions (since the latest firmware makes it possible to do so). So, I recommend to all of you to upgrade your firmware. Fyi: I upgraded mine at Sonyericsson Service Centre in Jakarta, free of charge if it's still under warranty.

  • wilL: it plays H.264 High-Quality video in VGA resolution @ 30FPS, some source says that it even beats Nokia N95 video player quality wise.

  • hi actually i just wana now what are the accesorries given with the mobile when we buy the m600

  • can it play video in qvga @ 30fps?

  • it's new successor has been approved by the FCC. it's the M610 (codename Lizzy) source says it will now incorporate WiFi but spec wise it will not be as hardware rich as P1.

  • Very easy to update firmware on this phone. Just download update software from SE web and the software will arrange everything for you. You need just to plug phone to PC through USB.

  • I am interested to buy on M600.Can anybody clarify my doubt regarding web browsing using this mobile.I read in the details of the mobile,it is not a WAP mobile,but there browsers available. So is it possible to connect to internet using this mobile without wire?

  • wow.. this phone is nice but only that the best of it dn't have a camera which is so bad of sony ericson just keep it up.

  • hmmm. wat are the softwares u guys will buy?? where do u find the firmware?? where do u download the firmware?? a newbie

  • robert; youre quiet excellent and fast in getting the keyboard used to yourself.

  • hey ths phn is nt fr 17 yr old child. better buy some thing which have camera n built in mp3 like walk men phones ;)

  • It's a nice phone with the latest symbian OS and touchscreen capabilities. Only drawback is that it doesn't have a phonecam. :)

  • It takes few hours to get used to it, then it's as fast as a qwerty keyboard.

  • Would any of you recommend this phone to a 17 year old, i mean how well is it built and will i get bored of it quickly

  • Hi dude: you said: "i am interested in buying this phone but i was wondering about the texting. for W, do you hit the q/e button twice? or do you hit the right side of the key? how is it for texting overall?" it is achieved by rocking the key in which each side designates a letter. in left side Q, on the opposite side theres W. and so on and so forth. rocking because the keypad is not flat typed, instead it's rendered in concave design.

  • i meant the q/w button

  • i am interested in buying this phone but i was wondering about the texting. for W, do you hit the q/e button twice? or do you hit the right side of the key? how is it for texting overall? thanks

  • kenny, you're right.. P1 is not the successor of M600 nor P990. P1 is unique by itself... features for your need

  • hi guys, i want to know whether M600i screen really needs a screen-gaurd...?

  • korngear: it's a successor not predecessor. love it's features, but the rumored black version may seem better for me. i think it's not the P1 which was the successor of the P990, even the official release didn't state that afaik. so ther will be the real successor, i bet it would be on october coz the P-series successors are usually announced during that month because the so-called symbian show is scheduled to be. so we ay see the P2 release. following the P-series tradition of looks and functions.

  • Now it's predecessor is to be released: P1i!

  • yes it has quickoffice.... works pretty good....one of the best business phones out there...No Camera though...

  • can smeone telme if im+ works on it??

  • Hi could u please tell me if the M600 has quickoffice. its urgent!

  • AJ: honestly, the N70 speaker is very good, it is loud and clear too. but compared it with SE's phone youi will notice the dramatic difference in sound rendering. SE sound rendering on it's speakers is really clear but this clarity has it's price, when volume was adjusted to the maximum, the certain creaks can be heard. in case of nokia N70, thew speaker clarity is not that as clear as SE but it's loud, but in some cases the sound is not so clear, this has advantage over the loudness as the creaks cannot be heard so many peple speculates that nokia has better speakers than SE. honestly both are good and has it's own weakness too. now it's only the user's choice of either having speaker with loud sound but not so clear or a crystal clear one but cannot hold it's clarity when the volume is too much. hope this thing helps clarify your query.

  • I have bought this phone recently.. and is an amazing phone.. this alos has got features of Walman series like megabass and loudness.... if camera is not your requirement then this is the phone.. and comparitive cheap too...

  • Thanx kenny But does phone like n70 give as crystal clear sound as se has

  • I jusy bought this phone, Would like some help with downloading TomTom Navigation software on my M600i. Wonder if anyone could help....Thanx!!!

  • Just a querstion, does d music player of this phone allow u 2 build ur own playlists??? Plz answer, that's crucial 2 me (i know it sounds stupid, but since i had Benq Siemens S88, i realy must know...)

  • AJ: all these times since walkmans were born. people get confused that walkmans are relatively only better when it comes to sound quality. no it's not... all SE have really good sound quality, just the presence of the excellent MusicPlayer and MegaBass is the only advantage of the walkmans, but basically it's just all software-enhancements from the non-walkmans and is same with non-walkmans. if only the walkmans have sound chips or DSPs then that will be another story, because it's the hardware that enhances sound quality. if you won't mind N91 has better sound quality than those walkmans because of the soundchips. even computers and IPOD have soundchips and that is alot better than a software enhanced sound quality one. this is just marketing gimmick guys to be able to improve the sales worlwide, but we can't blame them for they need it to attract consumers and we are those they needs. regarding the M600 sound quality, it's not that loud but the clarity is crystal clear. as expected to all SE phones due to the presence of Sony technology. and it doesn't really differ from W950 except from the excellent walkman player and megabass. because they share same hardware and form factor except the keypad layout.

  • can this phone take place for a walkman phone i mean is the sound quality is to potential plzzzzzzzzzz help

  • I think Sony Ericsson has come of age with the kind of phones they are offering to customers. M600i is one of the best smartphones out there. If you are one of those " I want it all and I want it Now " type, this is the phone for you.

  • Yea TomTom works fine and Nav4all works fine too, and you can get Nav4all for free on the nav4all.com

  • if u wanna a music phone then w950 is the best else if u looking for just a smartphone then surely M600i is the best...

  • hi, i bought 2nd hand M600i 2 months upgrd same time. it works realy good, fast & stable than my previous nokia phone. i posting this with my M600i.

  • I don't think you can set clock screen saver. Phone is saving wiht power so screen is turned off in idle mode. Beside it's not hard to press ANY key on the pohone in order to get clock up, or is it?

  • hey, is there any way to display time as screen saver???

  • "Just got the phone, it works amazing, upgraded the firmware right away. The texting is amazing, picture viewer and video viewer is amazing as well. The handset just worked even faster after the upgrade. The only thing i noticed was when i watch a video on my phone, when i dont use my phone, usually the screen dims out and goes black to save power, however after watching a video the screen does not dim out, and when i lock the phone it dims then the notification to unlock my phone comes on, and it stays like that, i have to turn off my phone and then turn it back on. anybody experiencing that problem and if so what did u do to fix it????" that's just normal as all SE phones sport that behaviour. it only dims out the screen to save power in order that the phone battery may last up to few days of use. you can turn it off if that annoys you.

  • Nokia loves makin people fool, and an n73 is he proper exampleof this, such piece of garbage. For years I ve been lookin for great RAM ROM combined devices, later found UIQ is way more better than series 60. Now thinkin of either havin a p700 or a m600-camera is not my main focus.Lets see what happens with dual led! m600 works way faster than p990! kenny rocks!

  • koRngear: honestly all SE's that i have used were excellent in sound rendering. the main issue was that the sound volume is not that loud in which many people comments that the sound quality sucks. in my own experiences loudness doesn't give better sound quality that much. especially when a cellphone speaker is concerned. phone speakers are made with more treble boosting algorithm rather than bass. bass speaker in a mobile phone is just neglectable as the phone isn't big enough to fit with an excellent bass speaker( the reason why you will notice that a tweeter is alot smaller than a bass speaker and why in a 2.1 or 5.1 speaker system the bass speaker is the largest) sometimes i just end up laughing out to those who say that SE speakers are worse than nokia's or motos while in both two i can hardly hear crystal clear sound like the one SE is offering. and don't be fooled with the stereo 3D speakers as it isn't effective too much for a mobile phone. in order to have 3D sorround one a speaker must be distant enough to the listener to hear the 3D rendering, not the so-closed twin speaker used in mobile phones. and the small speakers used in mobile phones proved that the "3D gimmick" is for sound amplification only. that's just a marketing gimmick imho. i used N70 and it is louder than the W810 which i am using now, but the details is much heard in the W810, hope you get my point with that and i agree SE always comes excellent because of the so called "it's a sony" and "like no other"

  • Could anyone give an advice for me...Why the ring volume so low (compare to other mobile) even already set to maximum and the aqualizer set to mega bass ? what is the last version of the M600 software ? thanks

  • thx kenny.

  • Bibby: You can get an external gps and install TomTom Mobile on this device (or download it as I did just now...)

  • I updated my phone first day. Haven't had any problems with it since I bought it 1 mount ago. Software seems stable :)

  • kenny, I am just very much happy and glad to be clarified about the issues, thank y very much. Hey, altho' it is not a music oriented phone, but I know SE naturally [because of Sony!] makes all the mainstream W series and UIQ based phones [except for w950, it is GOD] with very good/better sound quality. I heard m600/p990's music thru headsets is comparable to the W series. What do y think bout it? Please, thanks again for such vivid details. ^_^

  • @KEnny Is it possible to install GPS on this phone? And if it is, where can I get a GPS installer? and is it free?

  • guys, what about the SAR measurement? 1,05...too high i think...eeeee?

  • koRngear: M600 has more RAM capacity than P990 when in operation and with the R9 and R5/R6 organizer firmware versions in which the P990 worked well with handling RAM with the applications very well. and the speed is faster than before. thanks to the option where you can turn off transition effects in the menu. this is where most UIQ 3 phones struggles most as the graphics require more memory than the non-transitional one, SE's UIQ 3 smartphones have 3D hardware accelerator, though there was no in-built memory on the chip so it will eat the RAM memory in which where certain OS applications rely on. and as a result,as the phone losses RAM memory and the phone will freeze, hang and crash and the worst scenario is that it will restart with the annoying message that phone must be restarted to increase/recover memory. but with the newest firmware version the main issue with RAM was remedied and the applications work and run faster without the annoying rstarts and freezes. as of the M600 and W950, which both uses lesser RAM memory than the more powerful P990, the RAM problem will be much less than the P990 and you will notice better performance as the phone has fewer features than the latter. in other words the main problem is already solved and the future upgrades will enable more improvements over the RAM management issues with the UIQ phones. and hopefully all other issues too. anyway, P700- the rumored and confirmed successor(maybe) of M600 sports 160Mb RAM in which it clearly states that RAM issues have been the main focus of the SE UIQ team developers over the recent developments. we could see more UIQ 3 phones from SE which will perform alot better than the past ones. but if i could only suggest something maybe SE should also imbeed it's 3D graphics chip with it's own RAM(just like PC videocards) for better transition effects rendering without affecting the system's performance. and at least 350-400Mhz ARM processor for multitasking.

  • Hi there,specially kenny or others experienced, how is this phone's RAM goin on, what is the amount that is left to use for? Heavy applications like smartmovie-does it stumbles or breaks time to time to play video files, the audio quality through headsets -is it worthy to compare with other [except w950] walkman phones? Please clarify me.

  • is this phone a good phone?i mean is it worth buying?

  • guys did m600 had alot of problem like p990?

  • digital khwab, actually the only main problem of M600 is the memory management. with this, it could cause frequent system restarts, crashes and slow progress times. i suggest to upgrade to the latest firmware which could turn off the transition effects on the menu(the animations on the menu) in which if done, can save much more RAM than the usual... touchscreen, battery, and build quality is OK. the keypad just needs to get used to.

  • Need Advice on whether to buy or not to buy. I love the se brand, and am a se fan. I want ask m600 users. it this cellfone worth the buy? and does it have any shortcomings or not? The keypad, seems to be different. and does the touchscreen have any problems, after using it for a few weeks. and can someone please tell me the pros and cons of m600. advice would be really nice.

  • having this phone for a month. so far no hang ups.. really working good.. upgrade the frimware as soon u get.. battery life is good,coming nearly 3 days for me with average usage. .. highly recommended..

  • Does any body know if this phone supports separate ring tones for individual contacts? Hows the battery life? Does hanging issue solve after firmware upgrade? Please need advise before buying.

  • close the applications the right way using the task manager (up on the right corner of the screen) also, obviously it can not make a video call or recieve one because there is no camera on either end.

  • I have had moer problems with this phone. I've had software reloaded twice then replaced and the replacement phone is now in the shop. It constantly freezes on me and drops the call. It also goes into "never never land" and people can't reach me and I have no idea. This is the worst phone I've ever used.

  • just wondering since this phone has no video call camera, can it still be use to make video calls? what will happen if someone video calls you? Thanks

  • thanks Sef

  • hi,, i got one doubt.. when i press 'BACK' button to close a application, its still running in background... whether these application will drain the battery while its running in background or only RAM is wasted??? ---> No it doesn't waste battery because the even it's in background its in IDLE mode so the application won't eat juice from your battery. only the RAM is wasted. but anyway use your task manager to close the idle application so it won't waste RAM and make your phone restarts.

  • Enka: if you want this kind of phone maybe you should look at this SonyEricsson P700i or maybe M610 by the form factor speaks..

  • hi,, i got one doubt.. when i press 'BACK' button to close a application, its still running in background... whether these application will drain the battery while its running in background or only RAM is wasted???

  • No offence Enka but if you really need a camera in your phone why do you even consider checking out this phone... The Specs clearly state that there's no camera in this phone... Besides wat exactly do you use a phone cam for??? unless its over 2MP the cam really doesn't give you good results... As far as I know most ppl love to have cams embeded in their phones for the purpose of capturing those 'rite and rare moments'... Ironically as the cams get better quality wise the loading speed decreases... Hence you end up missing most of those special moments anyway... But if you still insist on having a cam on your phone... Go for the Nokia N95/N93i or the SE K800i/K810i... If you need a PDA the SE P990's apparently pretty amazing...

  • Ah this phone is really good, great functions, easy layout. the only thing that makes this not worth as much is the lack of the camera... thats what put me off it >__

  • Okies.... Thanx SeF.... I truely hope you're rite.... btw... Will I be able to open pdf or doc files on the W950 like in the M600??? And could you gimme some sites to find free software for the W950 and M600??? Thanx mate...

  • AniX: nope, nothing since SE was established. Flash memory is the safest form of storage that was currently used by every s worldwide.

  • SeF: Good point.... but if you get my drift my question is have you heard of the internal memory getting messed up in the W950???

  • AniX: anyway, how come W950 would have HD failures while it has no hard disk instead a flash drive memory?

  • thanks to PeterKay at esato forum the M610 or P700 is on it's way to the market soon. just look at this site and have your opinions posted here too. i just hope that the OS, processor and RAM management has improved alot from the previous. SE shouldn't waste money for the production if this phone will do no good. =)

  • Guys need a favour... I need to choose between the W950 or the M600... Has any one used both the phones??? and has anyone heard of any HD failures in the W950??? Pls reply asap... Thanx...

  • I downloaded the latest firmware. It looks the memory management has improved. I am able to see free memory above 15 MB with contacts running in the background. Good one

  • To check for latest updates for this phone use: To check your phones CDA and firmware versions: 1. Press "More" on the main screen. 2. Select the "Status" menu item. 3. The CDA is displayed at the end. To update use this software from SE:

  • Had this phone for a week now and like the phone allot. Battery seems to be quite good. Recharged first time after 4 days. Connected thrugh 3g-network and bluetouth the entire time. But during this time I only made 5 calls though. But I also played around allot with the phone during this time...battery should last a week at least with normal use. Love Symbian OS. Installed Opera (browser) and Gooogle Maps yesterday. Excellent! I recommend this phone!

  • this is a great phone... simple to use, but can anyone help me on one issue. can we manually adjust the music equalizer in this phone?

  • Hi guys! I am looking into buying one white M600 :D, but I keep thinking about the upcoming M610 with a 3.2mp camera, wifi support and 3G call. I do no know what to do: wait and see the price of the new M610, by then M600 will surely drop the price even lower ( my guess ). Still waiting for an answer from anyone that uused the phone with a 4GB card :) Thnx

  • Hi! UIQ games/applications are compatible with UIQ3's? Thanks

  • hi,, i got one doubt.. when i press back button to close a application, its still running in background.. whether these application will drain the battery while its running in background or only RAM is wasted???

  • Question for all the owners of the m600 can it use a 4gb memory stick micro?

  • There's a new update on the SE update service that has sorted out virtually ALL the issues with this phone. This particular update transforms the phone completely, and when I typed "Completely", I meant COMPLETELY! The speed of the menu after the update is phenomenal. Even the start-up is changed by the update. By far, this is the best update for this phone. Why? The difference is more than crystal clear. My only problem with SonyEricsson is that they don't announce the availability of updates. One has to constantly keep checking, to find out if they're there. Take my word all ye people with the M600i. Go ye straight to the SE website and update thy phones ASAP!

  • hi guys, can anyone help me here. i cant delete my calls in the call register...it say entries cannot be deleted, please switch to extended mode, please help thanks alot

  • >i am undecided as to what to buy, i'm confused >between w950i or m600i... can someone help me out >by answering some questions... If you look for a dedicated walkman then W950 is better (see all W series sony phones can be switched to walkman mode to just use as walkman). The following link shows the comparision and tells M600i to be 1 percent better than W950i > >1. does m600i support album art function like what >the w950i have when listening to mp3s? The following review tells M600i supports Album art >2. can i use a san disk 2 gb Memory Stick Micro� >(M2�) on this phone? because as far as i have >researched, this phone only supports upto 1GB of >Memory Stick Micro� (M2�) - which is a Sony Brand. >I'm just not sure though if Sony also offers 2 GB >of Memory Stick Micro� (M2�). The following link which is from sonyericsson itself tells u can use upto 4GB M2 card in M600i My Opinion M600i positives M600i is less costly than W950i M600i has an external memory slot and u can switch multiple cards (W950i is costlier than M600i because it has inbuilt fixed 4GB which u cant remove or add, if it is gone it is gone for ever, but M600i u r under control of external memory) M600i keyboard is querty whereas W950i keypad just looks like any other phone. Initially I struggled with M600i keypad, but now i cant live without it W950i positives Is a dedicated walkman phone Hope u can come to a conclusion > >i hope someone can help me with my questions... > >thanks in advance!

  • thanks a lot...

  • i am undecided as to what to buy, i'm confused between w950i or m600i... can someone help me out by answering some questions... 1. does m600i support album art function like what the w950i have when listening to mp3s? 2. can i use a san disk 2 gb Memory Stick Micro� (M2�) on this phone? because as far as i have researched, this phone only supports upto 1GB of Memory Stick Micro� (M2�) - which is a Sony Brand. I'm just not sure though if Sony also offers 2 GB of Memory Stick Micro� (M2�). i hope someone can help me with my questions... thanks in advance!

  • What carrier is everyone using this phone on? TMobile, Cingular, etc? Any pitfalls seen, I am concerned about the lack of the 850 band on this phone. Also, how is the ability to read MS docs and PDFs?

  • First download and run firmware executable. It will download the latest version of the executable which is around 23 Mega Bytes. This step takes around half an hour. After doing this follow the steps in update service. This step took an hour to update my phone and I am having 256 Kbps connection Note: The "C" key mentioned is the alphabet "C" of M600i keyboard

  • vG4% : thanks! good site ,,,

  • it is a comparision between N73 and M600i from phonegg site

  • Phone Version ending with R3A... seems to be having old firmware. The new firmware version will start with R9EC ... Bluetooth version remains the same. Please use Update service of SE. You can download from SE website. Update Service will determine if the phone requires a firmware update!

  • i have this phone 1 month ago, n i think it`s good. but i have a question... my firmware version is not available in CDA list for SE M600i. This my phone : 1. phone version : CXC162037 R3A004 2 Bluetooth : CXC162058 R3A01 3. Organizer : CXC162071 R3A06 4. CDA : CDA162011/2 R3A03 Is that good or not? or i must upgrade my phone? plz tell me, i don`t know about this.... thx...

  • Refer this link to know if your firmware version of M600i is latest.

  • My phone software version is : CXC162037 R1A93 Is this good enough or do i need to upgrade it in order to get better performance. If anyone knows , pls tell me , i don't know tht my softtware vrsn is latest otr not. The shop from where i bought it , i was told that it is the latest, but i don't thnk so?

  • Check your firmware version. To check firmware version follow the following menu sequence More --> Status My phone firmware version is CXC162037 R9EC001 if it is old, please update it immediately using Sony Ericsson update service.

  • I had this phone for 2 months. It's the worst phone I ever had. The software keeps crushing the battery runs out in less than a day. This phone is the last SE I'll ever buy.

  • I just got the phone yesterday, i find it just good. To be honest, it's one of the best phones for today if it is equipped with a megapixel camera.

  • guys out there i think to increase the speed of the phone you must install a utility in which it disables the menu animation(the transition effect). that results to a higher free Video memory and RAM and helps increasing the processing speed of the CPU.

  • I downloaded some good freeware from this link for M600. Especially the sudoku game

  • I have installed STPuzzles (set of 25 puzzle games) , is free to download. I downloaded from

  • This phone has the best ebook reading experience. I installed Mobipocket reader. Any pdf or word or html document I want to view, the mobipocket desktop s/w has option to convert to prc format (aportis format) I download the book into the phone using USB cable. To keep the backlight while I read my ebook, I changed Backlight setting to "On" from "Auto", enabled "Power Save" by checking the checkbox, increased "Active after" to 2 minutes Ebook reading is a charm in this mobile. I have more than 20 books (each book has 1000s of pages, and some books have 35 thousand pages) Cant miss this phone, just for ebook reading atleast

  • To increase the speed of UI launch, I disabled handwriting recognition, which I never use. To do this, Main Menu --> Tools --> Control Panel --> Device --> Text Input --> Handwriting --> Keyboard Only

  • Amazing phone! I have been using it for a couple of months now and the only thing I must note is the fact that you need to update the firmware as soon as you buy it to fix some minor bugs. Other than that, no complaints at all! Everything is there except for WiFi and camera.

  • Hi All, I updated my M600i phone last night. Now when I tried switching it on, it does not switch on, instead keeps flashing. How can I get over the problem. Any suggestions ??? Thanks in Advance. Akshat

  • hmm just want to knw is it possible to install turbo msn?please tell me a.s.a.p i planing to buy it...

  • hi every one:i want to buy this fon but id like to know about: 1.the quility of the sound of ths fone 2.can we change the sms tone?

  • Guys, the rumored M610 will change the SE's perspective of removing the camera and WIFI in the business phones. check it out!

  • its a noble phone both in design and action.the only thing which i think is less only lower sound in speaker!!!

  • I'm currently using M600. This phone is quite a good phone but 1 thing is not good is that it doesnt came with a camera. But in doubt to ask is there anyone knows how to use the 3G function.

  • This phone is great. It's functioning perfectly, and it's well designed. Cheers!

  • i wanna buy a m600i.is it has a good music qality like walkman series?

  • i think, this is one of the best phones for business. it got evrything, email, listening music, office, and games. not enough memory? you can add a memory stick. talking about the speed, eventhough is not super, but quiet fair for this kind of device. minus: no camera + wifi still i would recommend to buy it, it's affordable, and don't forget to upgrade the firmware. i guarantee you won't be regret..!

  • I own this phone for over 2 months now , Biggest drawback is that you canot record live calls which you can do in low category mobile as well Canany one tell me if we can record our calls in this mobile

  • I want to know whats the maximum no. of characters you can send on SMS in M600? Because when I type more than 70 characters it make me to send 2 SMS

  • where did u buy your m600? where i can download OS? can u give me the website? thx...

  • if possible inseart a cemara also becz it is essential now a days

  • i bought the M600i this year Jan.And so far i sent to service centre once for install chinese language read and write.I was surprised that the software can response so fast and good(not yet accurately) to my chinese writing.I had been told that the phone will be slow after install chinese read and write.And yes it's true i do realized when i open a video or application will need 2 or 3 seconds to start.But after i updating OS software through net it's become better!Now it's perfect for me at the moment.

  • i liked it but i have some questions on it and please answer me as fast as you can to my e-mail: q1)does it has handy day? q2)does it has music dj? q3)does it has wirless? q4)if there is no handy day or music dj how can i download it? q5)can i talk to my friends through the msn or no?? please answer me back quick thankyou, nora

  • how do i update my m600i

  • I'm going to buy in Taiwan... do you have any information about the product in Taiwan... Is it still bad till now???

  • one of the best phones till now....till now i have been using only ericsson and sonyericsson made phone and by far this is the best phone .as far as i am concerned there is no problem for me about this phone,i am having fun .been using thois one for the past 5 months the only problem though is it is a bit slow when u first open an application then when u open the same application it opens in a flash which is normal in any smart phone but for me i think p910i is fast when it come to this field. over all i love this phone and i am having fun with it i would recommend any body to buy this

  • try updating the phone software.. see if there's still those problems with it after updating.

  • i have this phone for 4 months. and this phone is bad.. it sucks.. i once set the alarm and once i turn it off. (unmark) it.. the alarm still going on until today. so every night i have to wake up at 12 o'clock to turn off the stupid alarm. and somethimes the back light wont extinguish so i have to turn off the phone for about 30 mins. and everythings back to normal. also, i've transfered pictures from pc to phone. and some pictures just wont open. i dont know why. i've resize the picture until 20 kb in JPEG format. it is small right but the phone just didn't recognize it think 5 times before you bought this phone. and im about to sell it now.

  • Is it still lack of speed...with the new firmware???and still have a lot of problem??? Please tell me...coz I have a plan to buy it...but still thinking...

  • Hi, I have problem connecting the phone to my pc using bluetooth and also usb. Does anyone have this problem? I did try after closing my firewall and antivirus but PC suite still cannot detect the phone. Thanks for your help in advance

  • I two problems: 1. The built-in Opera Browser does not display any pages. I don't even think any data goes to the browser. GPRS works as I can use messenger applications. Is there some way to fix this? 2. Is there any way to disable 3G mode so that it doesn't try and pick up 3G connections? Picking up 3G forces some applications to reconnect. I am limited to one network so I can't use any presets in the options.

  • was busy with an online firmware upgrade using the update tool from sonyericsson. the upgrade got stuck at 60% then a message displayed completed. But now my phone cannot switch on. It keeps flashing. how can I fix this? I think its damaged.

  • Abhinav: Hows your experience with the phone? may you tell everything about your phone from it's pros and cons?

  • Have this phone since about 5 months. When u type numbers, just press any of the two sides. Results in the same number appearing on the screen.

  • I have a question, when you are typing in the numbers, do you have to click the entire button, or a side, or what?

  • to the guy who said: "I have been using a M600i for about five months. i have a storage of 516 MB wish to share the following problems- # If i write a long email exceeding two para's only some of it remains,the rest just vanishes!!! This happens with yahoo, hotmail, gmail. Short emails with a few sentences gets across well. # I have a 5MB word file transfered from my PC,cant open it-says short of memory, inspite of having a 516MB Memory stick micro # some applications just close saying kern error. # hand writing recognition gets too slow when you are writing large word docs exceeding 15 pages. You will have to write and actually wait and watch as the sentences get completed.

  • Hi MaiCal! Still remember me? I just got my new m600i, it is be cool but 1 big problem, it always hang. I really need to turn it off everyday just to refresh it. I updated the firmware from SE's website & still the same. It always said not enough memory, u have to go to the task manager to close all the programme as it will not close automotically after u click 'back'

  • I got a question, when you make a call, can you turn off the back light? thanks..

  • I'm going to buy this phone but they told me that it has problem with the touchscreen. Does anybody had this problem?

  • im from iran,thanks alot to gsm helping me finding the best ;) im gonna purchase this phone(m600) a.s.a.p love you GSM :*

  • there are two things to consider if that's the case: it's either the touchscreen is defective when you purchased it before, better ask the vendor where you've purchased the handset or it's a software problem and you can remedy this by updating the software via sonyericsson site=D

  • j.e: WIFI - Wireless Fidelity, meaning you can connect to the high-speed internet without having subscription to the networks like DSL, Dial Up networking and 3G/HSDPA. as long as you have spotted a "Wifi hotspot" in order to connect. Carl-zeiss - A type of lens used in SONY CYBERSHOT cameras, the best lens if you would mention it's great flare reducing capability as it can help the CCD sensor to produce higher contrast images(eye pleasing images). though i don't know what crappy quality had the nokia done with this lens in their N-series. comparing the two cameras N-series with CZ and Cybershots from Sony won't give interesting comparison. Cybershots rules!

  • What can one do if the update fails. I try to update and my internet connection failed midway. I lost the former firmware and the phone is not fully updated. I cannot use my phone anymore. I try to repeat the update but it does not work and no related FAQ on ericsson site. I have the latest update software.

  • I was looking for phone/pda, I had treo 650, mini O2 so I am familiar with smartphones. I wanted a cool phone that has PDA features as well and I really like the size, weight and look of the M600. I did the usual net search before purchasing, most reviews are positive even from users forum. Ignore them, they are either sony retailers or related interested parties. honest owners would tell you not to buy this one. I am an actual owner and you can contact me on [email protected] for honest, unbiased experience. Great phone, brilliant screen and design but its software is a horror to use and full of bugs. Had to 1 perform factory reset after 2 months of purchase, when I couldn't fix one of the bug with soft/hard reset, removing the battery etc. Lost all my setting and preferences hence I don't customise the phone anymore ie ring tones etc. I am on my third month with this phone, and it is not a cheap phone so it'd be sometime before I can afford another phone therefore my advice do not buy this phone.

  • can someone please help me with my touchscreen problem?? it wont work...someone please what can i do...the stylus nor finger wont work...it's as if the touch screen has disappeared or something someone help what should i do??? can itr be fixed or is there some settings i have to change???

  • Dr. Parag Shah Thanks for your concern. I have already dowloaded the software. I was actually updating my phone and the internet connection failed.

  • For userm600 You can also update your phone's firmware by downloading it from www.sonyericsson.com site and navigating to section for M600. Download the software to update your phone from there. The whole procedure for updating is explained there. Then you can connect your phone to the PC with the data cable and follow the instructions. I think that should work, hoping that for you. All the best...

  • This phone is rubbish! It has a hardwired glitch where if you set it in the GMT+9.30 time zone (Adelaide) it will unrecoverably crash. I went through 5 in 4 months before the techs at SE admitted that to me. The best one lasted two days before dying and the crash is not fixable. The handset will need to be replaced.

  • I have reviewed the M600i here:

  • i said almost brainiac, point is that that kinda of compression ratio is huge for a cell phone the different in 160x120 vs 320x240 is that 1 pixel is stretched to 4, but since on the m600i u cant actually see the pixels, the naked eye wont cant the difference the m600i achieves 16m colours as well through dithering, these are all 6bit panels, so 262k colours, 16,2 is achieved through dithering ; e61 is supposed to be 16m but the colours are quite dead, so pls, an empty spec list doesnt mean anything and doesnt have anythin to do with series 60 3rd edition so fly away little butterfly

  • if u wanna know something about Symbian OS ? just ask...!!!

  • correction DVD videos are played in 5.10mb - 5.90mb per sec & audio at 512kb/sec,(not at 350kb/sec,lol). defrance between 160x120 & 320x240 is huge,but if u say so,lol.believe me..I m a professional video editor.i had Sony Ericsson p990i its Symbian OS is so much whors then i expected.Symbian OS is not that much stable as any NOKIA cell. & what about E70 ? for u....it got itself a ,Blackberry connectivity, 16M huge colour disply , landscape mode for everithing running on cell,very stable & fastest respond Symbian OS. so yor r not one who knows all about Symbian OS .... someone knows something better.!!!

  • 1 more thing, to those of u who still dont understand the symbian thing what's so hard? "like in nokia e70" nothin special about nokia e70 !!!! corect question: 'like in a symbian series 60 3rd edition phone?`, pff

  • and btw, 350 kb/sec ? lol , thats like almost dvd quality ./ 1 film/memory card :p ?

  • i compressed episodes from different shows to 80 or 120 mbytes, depending on quality/fps/resolution i generally used high quality/30 fps/160x120 resolution cause i didnt see much difference at 320x240 basicly, a 50 minutes episode at high quality/30 fps and 160x120 had 80 mbytes, the phone took a lil time to load it, but after that the playback was smooth

  • hello,hey i just saw all the fetures of this phone all over net.but i wanna know , is this cell phone can play video file as long as 150MB+. what is like ... 350kb/sec ( 5.60mb per min with 176x144 or 320x240 pixl) ? because i loved to watch movies on my cell , anyone who owned this m600 can tell me is that a good fullscreen movie player in it like nokia E70 ?

  • Hi guys, The volume is still low while talking even though I turn it up using a jog. Does anybody know how to fix it? Also, the battery is not charged well using a charger. Is that a problem with the battery or setup? please help!!

  • I bought this phone 2 months ago and it's the best. It has a very nice&easy user interface and the touchscreen is great because you can use even your fingers (and of course the stylus). Even though some say that the OS is buggy, i can say from experience that it has a very stable OS, of course if you know how to use it. The qwerty keyboard is great and it's very easy to use even if you have big fingers. P.S.: For those who saw the W950i, I recommend M600i because it's the same UIQ3 but with a different look, but worse keypad.

  • can anyone help me about updating this phone on a mac?

  • Hi I need help.. I know this phone supports the TOMTOM navigation software; but does it come standard with the software included in the package or do i have to buy / download? Also, can anyone tell me about experience with this? Does it work properly? Does it make the phone respond slower than before? Thanks in advance

  • i dont like thith mobil

  • Urgently need help!Does anyone M600i can write and see chinese words?I've check with the SE website but there's no simplefied chinese language download available. My latest version is :CXC 162037 R9EA001

  • can some one email me smart movie crack*d for this phone thankx

  • it has speakerphone

  • To: Lithium I use fingers for touch screen sometimes and i havent faced any problems. You can use the jog dial, left right arrows, Enter button also.

  • Good Features: Nice and light, Can carry in top pocket. Interface is easy to use. Screen is clear. Disapointing Features: Doesnt have a speakerphone, You need to do a restart daily for Blackberry which freezes up after a day. I have the latest Firmware and BB software.

  • i going to buy this phone 2day..............

  • I like this phone very much. I got it for a good price in hornsby vodafone. Go the doggies

  • QUESTION: When using the touchscreen, can you use your fingers on the screen or is it only possible to use the little "stick" that comes with it? (Due to, perhaps, size problems, etc.) Are there other ways to select things, (by pressing a button on the keypad) or is EVERYTHING in "touchscreen" mode. Sorry for my ignorance, I am not very clued up on cellphones! Thank you.

  • damn stupid phone. verrryy slowww, restart by itself, buggy software. this is a "smart" phone designed to steal money from people. smart way SE & keep the good job!!! i'm selling my f*** phone today. i'm feed up with firmware upgrade, completely useless. Unstable software!

  • Probably the best phone I've ever used. For those with non network branded versions: may I suggest that you update your phone's software on the SE website. There's a very recent software update available.

  • Is there a software that can do internet audio streaming on M600. The media player always say broken link if internet address is entered.

  • I have been using my phone the M600i for over 2 month and i have found many problems such as slow loading and battery use.

  • This phone was a little rough at first, but it's gotten sooo much better with the firmware updates. With the latest one (January, 2007) it's really quite a nice, snappy phone. Interestingly, I've found that I can almost double the battery life by reducing the screen brightness by just 15-20%.

  • I really want to buy this phone, but i saw that half of the opinions are related to the software crash. Is this model produced with software malfunctions, or the problem comes from the rebranding by mobile operators such as orange or vodafone?

  • Does this phonne play avi , wav files and smartmovies?

  • I had this phone for like a month i realize the batteries drains out very fast n it takes long to load...when im chargin the the phone the phones freezes....does anyone with this phone have this prob...

  • Hi , i got some problem . M600I has blackberry connectvity but do this phone has in built Blackberry software or it has to install .

  • hey guys....i need a avi player for M600...where could i find one?

  • Just go to SE webiste and download this: e and start update, if you don't have the newest - it will update, if you have - you see "You don't need upgrade". For my m600, when i updated there is no more lag, or very small when opening *.doc or big video.

  • hey guys..i recnenty bought the M600i but aftr using it for a while i feel its very slow...does any know what the latest firmware for the phone is??

  • Does anybody know if the M600i in Singapore support chinese sms? THanks for the reply.

  • hey my back button on the side of the phone isn't working. Anyone else have this problem and know what to do? Thx.

  • Hi all. I just recieved my m600 today. I bought it off plemix and it was apparently shipped from Hong Kong. I am very delighted at the features, unfortunately i have a slight problem. Although, at the start I selected the Enlgish(UK) language option, the text options during messaging are in Chinese!!! Please does anyone have a solution to this problem. I would greatly appreciate your help. Thanks

  • oh brother, if u want custom equalizer just install LCG Jukebox or some similar program of course only uiq 3.0 work, the same way only series 60 apps work on series 60 phones, series 90 apps work on series 90 phones, series 60ui apps work on series series 60ui symbian and so so on

  • Finally I bought this phone. I think this is a good choice over E61. Its dual alphabetic keys are much easier to use than it seems. Few points I would like to make regarding my earlier queries for which I did not get any clear answers- The music player has no custom preset in equalizer, but at megabass, the sound quality is exactly the same as w700i, considering you use the same headphone. Only UIQ 3.0 apps gets installed on the phone, a lot of which are available at www.handango.com.

  • okay ... thanx adi

  • e62 is e61 only with the wifi mising which i thnk was removed to bring down the price which i feel is absurbd read below 4 more on e61

  • yes i was interested in e61 it has a biger and btr scren but lack of touch scren hurts plus it is very bulky ,sound isnt this gud,and most imp joystick is folish to hav u wud end up breaking it very soon m600i scrol wheel is exceptional then it luks btr+touch screen and luk like a phone and nt a calculator also bt stereo a2dp is mising.and i dnt need wifi /3g so its perefect.

  • hey adi... i guess u were also comparing between E61 & M600i, wot is one thing dat made u drop E61 & opt for M600? any reviews on E62?

  • asking about a pdf reader on a symbian phone is like asking if a dog can roll over

  • marvs624, ur better of investing in a reading class so that in the future u will notice for yourself the obvious specifications of the phone. and keep ur frustations to yourself

  • To: Adi thanx ... will get back, incase i hv more queries, i guess its not a prob with u ;-)

  • to dc ur welcm phone has no issues bt stylus quality is nt gud imagin blue with black! It shud be reserved for walkman only rest very gud audio throug a2dp is excelemt mising in al the phones u mentioned.go 4 it its the safe bet.

  • to dc ur welcome no issues hwever i dnt like the stylus quality imagin using a bright blue one with black handsed se shud reserve this for wlkman only i dnt knw what colour u wud get in ur country in india its blue.rest is more than perfect old had some problems new is supurb.

  • To: Adi thanx again for quick reply ... had been attracted to JAMin, but reading the reviews its a dicy decision to go in for that. as i told u earlier, m using a 9300 at d moment, so camera/ wifi is not a big issue, want a smartphone able to handle office applications with gr8 sound & features. as always SonyEric has had d better sound-screen clarity... any other major issues with the phone???

  • so lets start with jamin and n80 the advantage is that u get 2&3 mp camera in both with macro i agree that macro is useful in office but never underestimate a qwerty keyboard+touch scren.only key board or touch scren wont help in emails.also it is sleeker with black berry!what elre can u ask!jamin being windows may luk atractive bt tyring wud b a pain and n80 is jack of al bt master of none.also screen is btr with a grt batry life.u wud surely mis wlan bt i dnt knw if u use it.in the end m600 much btr if u leave wlan+camera.bt ie u need g go 4 kjam/jasjam/e61

  • This phone also works in Japan! And the M608 isn't equipt with 3G.

  • thanx a ton adi... i hv been using 9300 & planning to change, hv three models in mind i) O2 Neo/ i-mate JAMin ii) SE M600 i iii) N80 wot do you say ... hw r d office files on M600, is it only view???

  • Had this phone for almost a year and it works great. Read Excel, words, Outlook, powerpoint, and PDF.. It memomrizes about 400 plus calls of all sort; incoming, missed, and outgoing! Internet wap is excellent, quite fast. I had google world upload into the phone and use it as it was on a desktop! Great graphics and agility. Key pads layout are genius! Battery last a long time. I use over 7000 minutes a months and after 10 months the battery has shown no sign of aging. The only suggestion is that; don't update your phone OS software if you don't have to. It takes about 30 minutes to download and installed, and sometime it doesn't do anything! There is no phone out there can do the samething, and has a better style than this.

  • I live in the United states and I just bought this phone from Europe. I was wondering if it's compactible with T-Mobile internet. That I can use the internet on the phone. That's All I need for business purposes. I need help someone pls help me out. thanks

  • The M600i does support Blackberry Connect. I'm using it on my phone and it works well.

  • hi adi , I tried all the things but not getting settings online . can u send me settings by email on [email protected]

  • guys... can any1 advice to buy this phone or not??? does it reads excel/word files???

  • Hi. I'm going to be buying this phn soon. I need to know 1 or 2 things though... can one do audio streaming from radio stations with the M600? Do you need any software loaded for this?

  • Hi , i want to buy smart phone and considering M600i , can any body tell me is this phone has blackberry connectivity , MS office application ( excel , word etc ) .

  • What is the latest firmware version. From sytem info on my M600i it shows Phone CXC 162037 R9A002 Organizer CXC 162071 R4C01 CDA CDA 162011/2 R4C01 How & where can i check for the latest firmware Thanks

  • so it seems, it appears that the phone has more available ram with the new firmware i dont know any other significant changes, if anyone can help me out with a changelist, be my guest

  • There is a New Software Update for the M600i. I live in the UK and I have just updated my phone. The New Firmware Version is, R9EA001

  • no need to worry just sms ur phone model to 3733 it works else try smsing sony ericsson M600i too also u can call bsnl frm land line (free) 1500 and i think 9400012345 works nt sure

  • Hi every one can u send me GPRS settings for M 600 i ( BSNL Service provider )

  • ppl like u who cant even use a search function on a forum shouldnt buy a smartphone since u dont have any clue on what to do with it

  • hey guys...just like to ask whether the phone has pdf reader? thnx a lot...im very much interested in buying the phone.

  • Dude. This is truly a smartphone. It works smartly in internet and office. It is better than all nokia phones. Don't be doubt about it. Buy a new one now. (Xiantak lang)

  • Hi Maical, yes, W950i does have this function, i think is called "track ID" or something like that. I find the qwerty key not that easy to use, try to get use to it though...

  • Note/mistype: u cant hot swap with w950i

  • Well, its quite obvious that the 2 models (m600i and w950i) are like twins with different attitudes. The software differences shouldnt influence ur decision because u can run the same programs on both phones, u just need to find the apps u need. Hardware wise, i preffer the qwerty keypad on m600i, great for posting on forums, like now :p. Also, u can get a sony digital camera and hot swap the memory cards and e-mail a picture after u take it, u cant do that with m600i. Im curently usin 1 gb mem card on m600i and its enough, 2gb would be nice, but my phone would start to look like a library, so 4 gigs is unecessary for me. As for radio, that function iis nice on the k800i because u can record a few seconds from a song and u can use an app on the phone to identify the song, not sure if the w950i has this features

  • Thanks Maical for the great info, this are really useful for a new bee like me. So how about W950i? If internally and software are the same except radio function, I might be considering changing to a W950i as i really like the radio and Walkman function.

  • hii, i have a m600i but it turns off sudenly after showing some battery low notes ,i have bought one other battery but still i have this problem. how i can solve this problem ,plz mail your opinion,[email protected] tnx

  • The phone isnt slow from my point of view. Uiq 3.0 is the touchscreen interface that makes software compatible, it's a standard like series 60 or series 90.

  • Hello Maical, thank you for the advice you give, I'll try it out later. The thing about this phone being slow, could it be because it is running Symbian V9.1 and UIQ 3.0? I know for PC, you always need a faster processor and RAM for higher windows version. Not too sure whether it apply here or not. W950i have radio with it and everything looks about the same accept it has a different interface with Walkman V2.0 but anything else different internally and software wise? I checked from SE website, it says W950i doesn't have document editor (I think this refers to 'Quick office' software) and fix internal memory of 4Gb with no external memory support when compare to M600i.

  • Of course it would be nice for it to have all that, but all smartphones have cpu's in the 200-300 mhz margin, not to mention u'd need better bateries. In the end, all that would increase the price. As for radio, it looks like se is saving it for the Walkman series. The m600i has the most common smarphone features nowadays and a touchscreen to get ur attention : nice phone for decent price

  • I think SE needs to consider stop releasing their P-series and start incresing features on this good looking M-series for their ultimate phone series. I'm sick of that P990... what should i say..big, ugly, slow, unfashionable at all. For the next M-series, SE needs to add better processor (it's very slow), radio, quadband (i don't know why SE never made 3g with qudband at the same device), HSDPA, and still no camera please

  • What do u thiink since it says office applications in the specifications? Anyway, if u ask yourself this kind of questions, this phone isnt adressed to u.

  • can it read microsoft office documents??

  • I suppose that's the name of the program (im on a winter holiday and posting this using the m600i :) ) The program will tell u everything u have to do. Note: when it's asking u to push the 'c' key on ur keyboars, use the backspace key, gl.

  • Thank you Maical for the information, I am still very new to this phone. So do I download the file "Update_Service_Setup-2.6.11.7.exe" from SE and installed it thought PC?

  • To find out firmware u simply tap more->status and scroll down U can do it at home using the se software, it takes 30-60 minutes, but im not sure if it makes u lose ur warranty or not.

  • Hi Maical, saw your post earlier, you were saying the latest firmware is more stable, can I know which version are you refering to and how to check through my phone? Is it using *#0000#? And can I download this firmware from the SE website and flash into my phone through PC or I need to ask SE service center to do for me? Thank you in advance for your help.

  • Hi all, I have this phone for the past month and boy its such a gr8 gem, and I am the type who changes phones quite often but I never had so many people telling WOW what a mobile?? It happens on a daily basis so just the felt the need to say to SE well done and now you gained a new customer... a happy customer

  • yeh, it does have megabass, altough im still missin ur point, thats simply an egalizer setting that deals with the phone;s hardware

  • Hi Maical, The questions are not at all ridiculous, but very simple. Since I am buying this phone, I need to make sure about the features it offers. No offense, but games are required if that very important as indicated by you. Regarding 'W' series music software, the thought comes to mind that the quality would be the same since on many websites I can find that this has Megabass, although I am not sure of it. Thanks for the advice. I can find the apps I need. Regards, Abhijit

  • Abhijit, you're questions are absolutely ridicoulus. first of all, the k750i vs m600i was settled in dozens of posts, just READ. 2nd of all, the "W" series has a different headset included and different music software, since its WALKMAN, so its supposed to be better. 3rd, if u dont have a joystick, u probly use ur stylus and tap the screen... just a wild guess, but i think games are really important in ur glorious bussiness needs 4th thing, u google for applications unless ur too lazy to do that

  • Hi All, I am planning to buy this mobile since this suits my needs perfectly. I dont require the camera since I think no mobile camera can replace the digital camera. However I have a few questions. 1. Is the sound quality as good as W700i / K750i? I need good sound quality. However W950i may sound better, but this should be as good as W700i or K750i. 2. How do you play games on this phone in the absence of joystick or arrow keys. Where can I find applications and games for this? Any answers will be helpful. Regards, Abhijit

  • Hi pals, i'm going to buy such this phone model. can anybody propose his opinion? do you recommend this phone on this price? or may be better to buy another model? thanx...

  • my 600 freezes up a lot. it is very frustrating and it is not letting me connect to my comp. i purchased from hong kong and it does not have handwriting recognition in english. any help??? and i am in USA and use tmobile and cant get the internet settings to work. and btw can i get instant messaging like AIM on it??

  • Adi, i meant flash player plug-in for opera (maybe in opera 9.0) but if u have a program that runs youtube, contact me by all means, e-mail is [email protected] as for bugs, it depinds on software versions (as i previously wrote i think), last firmware is quite ok, no problems / the original firmware version had some real issues phones have 200-300mhz cpus and 64mb ram or somethin like that, even if u get high speed wlan, ur phone wont be able to process that much info

  • Another question, does it have Push-to-Talk?

  • hi, i want to buy phone for business(Push email, office applications...etc) so im comparing the M600 with other business phones, like the Nokia E61, 9300i, till now i prefer the M600, but some said to me that the software has some bugs, and also another question, is the WLAN in the cell phones with good speed, can anyone help me in these issues?

  • You guys need to read the forums before posting intelligently challenged questions. The phone is aimed at BUSINESS users, not the media crazy type. if you want a phone with a camera, you buy the K800. If you want push, 3G and an intuitive user interface that will result in PRODCUTIVITY, then you buy the M600i. I have one, I love it, the sound quality is great, with crisp highs and resonating lows. Anyone who says the W950 blows this phone out of the water is jsut biased, with the 4GB of storage and buttonless keypad clouding their view.

  • my dear raghu read all openion before u post.walkman phones hav better sound and if u only want sound why are u looking at a bussiness phone?its compareable with 750i that meams very decent which must b enough.and guys stop posting that this phone need camara! It doesnt perhaps u need a doctor.and my dear maical i think u want the flash player cra*ked right? Got 1 interested?

  • can any one tell me the audio clarity mp3 on the headphone. can its audio clarity compared to w810i and tell me about the vedio player?. thanks.

  • Hey Maical! Which then is the horse and which is the mouse?

  • i got one question... why don't have camera for this cellphone??

  • yeh, its like u want a pet and u think about gettin a horse or a mouse...

  • Hi! This looks like a great phone. I'm currently using Nokia and now need to choose between Nokia 6233 and this M600i. It probably isn't a difficult choice, but would appreciate some help here. Thanks

  • the question i answered was "how does this compare with the p990i", so i thought the hardware differences are obvious (camera, wifi, radio, different screen size, etc) and i reffered strictly to the OS part, wich is identical the 2 phones could have different pre-installed applications too, im not sure about that i hope that settles the issue

  • Hey Maical: U said this baby is basically the same as p990i. Having the same software does not make them the same for example p990i has Wi-fi this phone doesn't (WLAN) - useful for business!! What more then? (forget the camera issue - I agree with u there they should buy themselves a real camera!)

  • also, handwriting recognition requires a lot more exercise then gettin used with the keyboard i think i got pretty skilled at it, but i still have to pay lots of attention when writing in that mod so i gave it up and got used to the keyboard (wich works really well - 2 thumbs up :) )

  • yes, it has a loud speaker and yes, it has a recorder like any decent symbian phone... as for syncronization with pc, the software that comes with the phone is only compatible with windows xp service pack 2 / i dont know if sofware for other OS's exists

  • Is this phone compatible with isync? (apple). I'm looking for a personal organiser phone that is - any recommendations? just need my addresses/diary to sync, plus to use 'stick', or touch screen to write (rather than texting).

  • Hi,does anyone know whether this phone has speakerphone & voice recorder? Couldn't find them in the specifications. Thanks!

  • It is a cool phone i will buy one when i need it For the time being its very advanced.

  • hi everybuddy howr ya? i have red most of opinions about this phone and i think its cool phone bt would anybuddy like to tell how is the sound quality ? is it realy comparable with k750 and the next phone to this p990i? and also plz tell this phone got bugs as well? plz do reply

  • is that a vodafone model since u cant update firmware ?

  • I bought this phone 3 mths ago, but I have only actually had it for about 1(or less). It has been off for repair 3 times, each time gone for about 3 weeks. It has been replaced every time, with a completely new model - and they all do the same thing. After about a week, it will switch off, then just constantly reboot without ever switching back on. Has anyone else ever had this? I have tried to upgrade the software but it will not allow me to. I really don't want to send my current model off - which is doing the same thing. I know one other person with this phone, and his is exactly the same story...

  • This is the perfect phone without a camera... The screen resolution is outstanding the software is good and does not hang up like the nokia models... At last we have a phone which is perfectly packed for fun and work... thanx Sony

  • If you dopn't like the phone, don't make us listen to your complaints. IF YOU WANT A CAMREA, BUY A DIFFERENT PHONE!!!!!!!!! Stop complaining about whats not there. There are hundreds of comments for this phone alone saying that it needs a camera, so we don't need any more. There is not a camera for a reason... It doesn't need one because it is a buisness phone

  • hi what were they thinking no camera hi sony you are in 21st centuary

  • can anyone tell me, does this phone allows u to type chinese language??

  • ive posted information related to sound quality on these boards before, basicly its just as good as k750i but a bit less loud. as for slowing down, its the same case as computers: the more stuff u have open -> a bigger amount of ram is used and cpu cycles -> the computer reacts more slowly / m600i has 62mb of ram and 208 mhz cpu, it can handle pretty well 3-4 applications, but once u go 5+ it will get slow, yes, but i dont see why u would do that...

  • i've heard that the phone slows down once we open a specific menu,messaging for instance...is that true? and there's another query...is the sound quality good?thanku p.s. maical i can expect an appropriate answer from u since ur a keen user...

  • battery life depinds on the usage ? will u be using it on 3g network ? or gsm ? will u use it to surf the web or not ? the internet connection uses lots of power, probly 4-5 hours of continuing surfing will deplete ur battery if u wont that feature at all, u might get 3-6 days, im not sure, i generally get 1-2 days of mixed ussage - music,agenda,internet,mail, mms, etc on a 50% average brightness level for the display

  • Hi every 1! Could u tell me about the battery life with m600 Thx in advance!

  • ok, so ive tested the e61 before buying the m600i altough nokia claims that e61 reflects 16million colours, the screen colours seemed quite dead, maybe it was only the theme, i dont know... i really hated the joystick on the e61, scrolling a website was a horrible experience and the joystick was simply hurting my finger / also, u can also move up/down or left/right, u cant do up+right same time -> SUX i bought the m600i because of the great scrolling when viewing websites (u can scroll pages just by puttin the stylus in 1 point and movin it around, also the jog dial wheel on the side is very helpfull) im watchin films on the m600i now while travelling on the bus, listenting to music, etc, thinkin of gettin a bluetooth stereo headset since it has a2dp the only thing im missing is flash player, but e61 doesnt have that either

  • hey maical u seem to have used this cel quite a lot and seem to b the best person to ans my question i want to know which is better e61 or m600? I dont mind the size of e61 hav u tried it? Is the sound compareable?i think tge screen is better what say?

  • Black or white??????

  • hello everybody Happy new year in Adv Can anyone can tell me how is it really sound is it like other Walkman series can we plug any 3.5 pin headset bye

  • hi who know that m600i have free msn Messenger to download plz email me thank you

  • we've just bought an m600. and generally the phone is really doing well, but is there any history of the phone hanging or is there anyone who experienced any problems on the phone. since reading thru the opinions, majority of the phone users are happy and content with the features and functionality of the phone. btw, i would like to give credit to sonyericsson for doing a good job in improving there designs and features regardless if the phone has camera or not. keep up the good work!

  • i think this phone's pretty neat.. my friend's got it, and is most useful for email.. from what i know it does have handwriting recognition as well as touch screen features.. the jog-dial on the side of the phone acts like a scroller / all in one controller... click to select, scroll up and down.. so no longer necessary for the up down select button which is also available on the keypad if i'm not mistaken.. a good phone, without memory card tho :( and it's not as snazzy as the W950i which costs a bomb :P but i didn't get it in the end.. settled for the 9300i :) hehehe toodlez, and hope my suggestions help..

  • Angel, why do u think it has opera browser on it if not for surfing the web ? why do u think it has 3g ? why do u think it has gprs ? and considering it has the same software as p990i : UIQ 3.0, i dont see the point of your question

  • How does this compare to the P990i, other the obvious difference of camera(which I can leave without).Is this basicall same as p series other than camera. Please advise keen to buy either this or the elusive P990. SE Fun

  • Anyone current phone user please tell me, can u surf net with this phone?? I mean although its doesn't have any Wiress Network

  • 8 out of 10 it generally works really well, but sometimes the phone lags a lot when the page is loading scrolling is magnificent, i love the landscape mode, too bad it doesnt have flash support... and some websites fail to open on apn wap, but work on apn internet

  • how do u rate web browsing on this cell. Thankx

  • This phone doesnt need a camera, even though a VGA video call camera would have been nice. It is a buisness dedicated phone, and therefore a camera would just add needless bulk and mean that the phone would cost more. If you want a camea buy the N80...

  • its not, so dont bother

  • What does the dial thing on the side do??? Please answer soon because i want to buy this phone but i want to make sure it is right for me.. Thanx in advance

  • thank you micael , son my question was not a joke now that i read the specifications i have the answer , i can also email if i stand correct . But this star trek technology makes me humble in my days it used to be a kings honor to send telegraph . Maybe you will understand when you have grandkids

  • since ur question is a joke, i dont know why i even bother to answer it: quote from phone specifications wich u failed to read, but u succeded in writing something useless here Messaging: SMS, MMS, Email, Instant Messaging Also, Dear Santa Clause id like nokia,sony ericsson and all other phone mobile companies in the world to join forces and create the absolute perfect phone who will have camera, yahoo, aol, msn, medieval 2 total war, half life 2, microwaves, dishwasher, 7,1 sound system, quad core cpu, air conditioning, ..... signature: annoyed by nut crackers

  • aloha, my name is jeph and i live in USA NY.. is it possible to install aol messenger and yahoo messenger on this phone?

  • can we use short message service with this hand phone , i use a wall phone in which i cant do that . my neighborhood shopkeeper says i can , is that true . he also recommended me this phone as i am 80 years old and can not read small screens

  • Can anyone please tell me is it possible to listen fm radio on this phone.

  • Can anybody tell me, where to find how to assign the ringtones for contact group - not for each person separately, bud for created contact group. Thx

  • yeh, i already do that (switch to flight mode), still i had symbian before and the phone would wake up to ring at the designated alarm time...

  • To hendara: I have experienced the same problem/solution master reset or software upgrade(make back up first on PC) To Maical: Motorola phones do the same so it�s quite common. I think this one does this because of the symbian.Try using flight mode at night. I do this and it�s perfect.

  • If you visit Sonyericsson.com wap site via your phone, you go to Fun & Download section and then go into applcation, the list has IM plus and other 14 odd software like advance call manager for download and the price is FREE. The problem is one you click the down link it show 404 Page Not found ... Do try and update if you can get the software or not... cheers

  • the headsets are identical to the ones who come with the k750i, the quality is similar. i dont see why the w550i wouldnt be compatible if the connector is the same, but its a dumb question. u could of just went on the sony ericsson website and checked for compatible headset models

  • hi do stereo headsets come and are w550i headsets compatible?how are calls accepted/rejectet without send /end key from the screen? Hws mp3 playback quality better than k750? Thankx

  • Can tell anyone tell me if the have issues with the touch screen bit of this fone, my stylus just does not work with it any a tall or my finger it just wont work i restarted and all and it still not responding icant make out any calls or answer any...HEEEEEEEEEEELLLPPPPPPPPPP

  • I have questions: why does a phone need a camera or wifi? What if I want a phone that doesn't have an extra hole for dirt to get caught in (namely the camera lens)? What if I don't need wifi because I have a bloody laptop? It seems like people hold it against this phone that it doesn't have a camera. I guess this is just an example of the consumer mindset we have. It doesn't matter if we will never use something, we want it anyway and we want more. I personally don't need a camera (I have a perfectly useful digital camera and never use the cameras on my phones), so I would like to exclude it from my phone. It's just one less button that will accidentally get pressed when the phone is in my pocket. If you like the way this phone looks, like a full keyboard, enjoy symbian/uiq, and would like a touchpad on your phone, then go ahead and get this.

  • Hi,Please tell me is it possible to listen radio on M600.

  • maybe it has something to do with the zone of interest u set...

  • Hi, i think this phone's alarm (timer application in control panel) has a bug. I set the alarm to ring at 5 pm, but it ring on 4 pm, sometimes 1 pm. But the calendar alarm is okay. Has anyone experience this problem ?

  • I ppl, facing a funny issue, I on Sat update my M600i using the update service on the web. All is fine excep in the main screen Today menu calender entry it always shows 0 even if they were reminders/appointments for that day. This was not the case before the update... Any idea on how i can solve this? cheer

  • Camera efficiency? This phone has no camera. Sound effects? Obviously W850 is better.

  • whitch phone have da best sound system M600 or W850? plzz reply

  • cn any1 tel me abt it's camera efficiency..........

  • Can somebody tell me is the loudnes for mp3 rigntones is good?

  • u push left side, u get left letter, u push right side, u get right letter... its like any qwerty, its just that u need more "elegant" in gestures

  • Hey guys im considering buying M600 so can u plz tell me about the QWERTY keypad; is it easy to use coz its like 2 alphabets on 1 button...does that create any problems in typing?

  • Bought this phone about 2 weeks ago. Great phone. Does everything it says it does. No problems what so ever. Nearly bought the Nokia, glad i never!!!

  • does this mobile play videos?and can you put any ring tone or mp3 for message tone? cy

  • i generally turn off my cell phone during the night and ive never encountered a cell phone that doesnt turn on at the alarm clock time + the gay thing is that if u open it after the alarm time, it doesnt even warn u that u missed an alarm or wake up call -> anyway, thanks for the ironic answer, but i was thinkin its maybe a bug of my particular device, rather then a product "feature"

  • try turning it on for the alarm?

  • no alarm clock if the phone is turned off ?

  • Hi! I live in Finland and sell phones for a living (alot of Nokia obviously) and i've used all the n-series and the e-series phones. When I tested the M600i I just fell in love with it. For example it's much easier to edit word and excel files with the stylus and nowadays I handle all my banking and email with the phone. The only drawback I can think of is that the UIQ interface in Finland does not have as much additional software you can buy and that the phone does not have EDGE. Wireless LAN in my oppinion is pointless because you have to find all the hotspots and then setup the connection when you just could connect through the 3g network. I for example have a unlimited data transfer package in the home network for 30 euros a month. That is a small price for a internet connection you can use anywhere and also with a notebook. For an office on the road I would not take the E series before they integrate a touch screen to their devices. So 10 for the desing 9 for the features (because of the EDGE thing) and for performance 10.

  • i jus bought one yesterday...but when i make calls the screen blinks (light vibrates)....do any one of u have encountered this kind of problem?? thanks.

  • Is this the fone that was used by Eva Green a.k.a. Vesper Lynd, in the james bond movie, Casino Royal? but instead of black she was using a white one... hmm.. he he.. ha ha.. huweeiii!!!

  • I bought a new M600 3 weeks ago. I've it's nice. but now the ph is restaring everytime when i turn it on!!! it only works when i connect with the usb cable. battery shows ok. I'm little bit upset about it. I've already update it but the problem is same. can anybody tell me what to do now?

  • I bought my M600i 2mos ago and the problem is, i can't send any SMS anymore. I send back to where i bought but told me to upgrade the unit. Does it mean that when i bought it, it's not 100% functional? Or a serious problem with it?

  • Well, should i still really tell you a reason?? This is a business orientated phone.. NOT a multimedia phone, so u've got the point? every business phone in this class have no camera (i.e. Blackberry, nokie e61) But if ya still want a PDA SE phone with camera, go for p990 instead

  • Why the phone have no camera

  • Hey can somebody tell me where can I find software for M600 like zip manager and flash player which is preinstalled in nokia E70, this phone is great but still lack of software support I think

  • BRILLIANT phone as a first time Sony Ericsson user i am astound as to what this phones limits are, ther is one small problem though i'm unable to setup my PC and Phone together to connect to the internet if someone could assist please feel free to email me, To the guyes and Girls at Sony.... keep it up everything on the M600i is brilliant...! :-)

  • i have phone firmware version R9A002 and a 1 gigabyte memory card, no problems what so ever i didnt have any problems with the 64mb card so maybe its simply ur phone... or some bad ussage

  • there is no firmware update in the sony ericsson homepage ! With the update manager software I upgraded the phone, but the problem with memorystick remains !

  • ben, are you too lazy to read some previous posts? just get ur hand out of ur pocket/pants and scroll down a little

  • Hey all. Is that 3G in Indonesia is free?? Which operator is it? I thought this phone is a great and smart phone.. but i heared that phone have a error problem, and some of them said this is a failure product,is that true?

  • why do u think 3g allows video calling? and 2g didnt allow it? hm? could it have somethin to do with data transfer speed? i suppose so :rollseyes: this phone has 3g and the opera 8.60 so that u can surf the web in the best conditions 3g = 384kbps, while 2g was gprs = 52kbps

  • Hey all!! Just bought this thing few days ago. i couldn't find the blackberry aps for this phone. Can sum1 send it to my e-mail,!? Thx!! btw, what is 3G connectivity for if you don't have the camera.. What else can 3G do instead of video calling? Cause it's very in trend this days to do video calling in Indonesia. And it's still free too.. Can i put some GPS software in here too,!? Thx for the help.. ;)

  • I have decided to buy a mobile phone with best internet facilities.To all the users:Why should I buy this [email protected]

  • Hey Guys... It that the M600i can use in Chinese Language?

  • Is anyone using this phone in North America? If anyone is can you tell me how your reception and connectivity is? Please e-mail me with answers.

  • u just go to the sony ericsson website and download the update firmware software... u simply google the information if ur too lazy to search for it on sony ericsson website

  • Bought the M600i 3 days ago. Everything is fine exept the "memory corrupt" message every time I turn on my phone. Today I bought a new memory cars (512 mb), but still the same. Sometimes the card works, then suddenly it dissapears. To get it work again you have to take the card off and put on again for several times. I get the "memory corrupt" both with new card and the one that was included with the phone ! Any solutions. PS ! I have updated the software already - does not help

  • a very nice phone with not a problem for me...its good phone with no camera,because some camera only make the prize more expensive.And this phone is for business not for playing game from the phone,i dun think business ppl got time for take a pict "maybe a beauty girls just pass out" Its better than nokia.For me so far from released i buy the phone its about 3month its no problem at all,no restart when send or accepting SMS or anykind of message.Or some issues by other person which phone can restart 5~6 times in 1 day....For my phone so far is no restart even a single days from the 1st time i buy it,its never auto restart. For me its a Great Phone with NO Camera...

  • hello everybody. i have my m600i for about a month now. so far i am very glad i bought it and i like it very much. the only problem that i have is that it closes too many times an application. the application is agile messenger and is an instant messenger. you can find it here: any ideas why it crashes so often? i have read that some of you had problems and after updating firmware the problems were solved. how and where did you get the updated firmware? thank you all!

  • I got my Sony Ericsson yesterday(15thNov 06) One of my querry would be ... is there a way of switching to loud speaker while you are on a call without having to dettach the phone from your ear and press loud speaker on the screen?

  • oh really ??? i thought that blue hole on the back is the camera, not the speaker... :rollseyes:

  • how do you update firmware? my phone keeps freezing

  • hogan, its a well kept secret, but just for u: it has a 10 mp camera

  • what MP camera does this have?

  • If you are thinking about getting this phone, remember: it is by no means a bad phone, in fact it is very good at what it does, and you can't argue with it's size and weight. Just don't expect it to be as functional as for eg. the Nokia E61, which most critics compare it to. I have used both phones, both are great, the E61 can do quite a bit more, yet I still use the M600i as my primary phone as I can actually carry it around in a regular phone pouch, and it's significantly lighter. But if portability is not an issue, then by all means go for the E61 instead.

  • Stop posting nonsense opinion about camera... this is a business phone!!!... not a multimedia phone. is it hard to understand? only the people who have tips on how to utilize it's performance and tweaking tips are the best people to post here, you just ruin the thread and scare away real users who have something to share for betterment of this device... this is a good phone if you really keep in mind that this is not a mobile phone anymore but more of a personal computer and phone combined, treat it has a PC and take care of it... it's not a child's play just to upgrade firmware whenever there is bugs on it or install applications and etc... and users who encounter no problems on it are not lucky people, basic users or working from SE,.. they know how to use the phone without any complaining and remedy the problems on it... if you treat this phone as you treat your S60 phone, then you are a mediocre user... this is an advanced device equiped with an advanced operating system and more advanced usage and taking care of it were need for it to work very stable...

  • well as i have said earlier also i am using the M600i since the past 3 months since its release. I had a few issues earlier but after the upgrade they were solved. Currently I am using the M600i for calls, mail, web & RSS other than few installed softwares which do need to access the web and few games. I have found it preety stable. It does restart once in 4-5 days now which i feel is okay as i do not shut the phone ever.. I real wonder why othet people face problems with the phone. One more thing the QWERTY keyboard is great you just need to get used to it... and trust me I do not have thin fingers either... cheers

  • I bought one of these ... one word sums it up: Dreadful! It is just full of bugs, even with firmware updates, obviously very poorly tested and I have had nothing but rubbish support from SE. Those people here that report good experiences with this device are (a) very lucky indeed, (b) are only using its most basic features or (c) work for SE, 'nuff said!

  • i have high expectation on this device (since i have planned to exchange my buggy HP hw6515 with M600i). the problem is with its main feature, the qwerty keypad. i have hard time typing text messages with this kind of rocking keypad system. i was comparing this M600i with my HP and Nokia E61. turns out that i prefer to keep my HP (E61 keyboard is not bad, but no touch screen :-( ). i cannot recommended M600i for qwerty pdaphone fans (such as treo or hw6515)

  • what do you mean "noo camera"!!!!! se, you killed this phone from birht. such a nice equipt. to have. yet no camera???

  • people it's been a very long time argumenting regarding W950/M600's camera, it's a music/business oriented phone, SE just put some multimedia features in it to be more flexible as a standard music/business phone... theres so many phones out ther that has a camera, but makes a smartphone a large brick,.. better buy a separate real digital camera.. it produces far better images and more reliable than most of the real camera phones now... i myself don't need a camera phone anymore because i have a digital camera and it is more reliable for me...

  • if u want the camera buy the p990

  • 4th time lucky! dm thing won't rgister my post for some reason, in responce to your question i have only had one bug where the phone restarts istself in ordert to "optimise" operating on the phone, the phone then soft resets... i bough the phone on the day of release and updating the software via SEUS and its been fineever since, se have just bought out UIQ to make new software releases ect for their phones

  • @ SeF, i have had a few bugs with it... but i got the first batch of phones that come out with the v1 firware on them, the problem that i got was the phone running out of momory and suts itself down to "optimise" the system, once updating it on the SEUS it has been fine ever since not a problem at all, with regards to the tuch screen aswell the handwriting recognition is the best it could be, but i hear that son ericsson just bought UIQ technology's to help them develop new software and improv firmware on the m600, p990i and w950 so things can only get better considering.

  • does this phone have tagalog language feature??

  • Camera? we often have one in our pocket :) the picture is so bad with these mobiles. i like this mobile.

  • after updating to the latest firmware, the phoen runs a lot smoother with no crashes or such only 1 problem occured after i installed the newest firmware, some websites containing javascript wich worked before the update, dont work now... like gsmarena.com

  • azza,.. thanks for your quick response, but i have already red that review... another is that the phone used there is a prototype, so i won't be sure enough if the phone with final version is better or worse... hope you understand... i love touchscreen phones and it seems that from all PDA phones, this is the cheapest in our location, and it's OS is simpler than Windows Mobile you know when writing applications or programming... symbian UIQ is the simplest for PDA phones... anyway, have you encounter bugs already? or if not, it's very good... thanks,.. and thanks in advance... SeF...

  • I am contemplating on buying this phone but i heard that you always have to update the firmware which mite b a problem for me since i am not that great with technology. I am mainly using this phone for calls and notes. i would probably never use the email options and such. I am buying this phone for it's looks... in that case would i still have to update firmware? and how is the volume wiht the speakers, i need my phone to be loud to hear incoming calls. thanks

  • For a nice new top of the range smart phone, why couldnt they put a camera in the back!!!

  • simply great phone mate i would advise anyone to get it, as for ur question i would go to best review of the phone i have ever seen aswell as comprehensive review of every major model to come from sony ericsson and all other manufacturers

  • azza,.. if you won't mind, could you please post some infos and tips with this device? whether the speed performance is good? hoping that this would be my first UIQ smartphone coz P990 is such expensive for me(though the features are simply sending it to the one of the most equiped PDA phones out now) and the W950's design is not suiting my lifestyle and i need memory slot for use in my PC... because i've been waiting so much already for SE for a new UIQ phone and this one suits me... thanks in advance!!! anyway,.. this phone supports Open GL 1.1 graphic acceleration, meaning better game experiences due to the fact that it uses GPU to process 3-dimensional graphics and less use on CPU in which it slowens phone's performance just like in PCs,..

  • simply amazing phone, i have had no problems with it at all and runs perfectly, i'd also like to ask people to stop posig things like "what about the camera" "this phone is better cos it has a camera" they are retards and should not be allowed to post. this phone is for business use only... in some businesses now phone with cameras are simply not allowed? did you know that?! also sony ericsson hae done a good job with this and the w950 should be proud and the addition of a camera would completely rouin the feal size and dimensions opf the phone. for all those people out there who complain about wifi i would like to ass that it has no wifi simply because it would be competing with the p990i and no company would release 2 products to compete with each other? think about it.

  • Please ignore all negative comments about this phone. It is amazing. It is not for taking photos. It is can do everything else brilliantly. If you have problems with your phone, just update the firmware and all is 100%. I love it, only need to buy a bigger memory card.

  • DON'T BUY THIS PHONE. Sorry, but it is simply appalling. Pathetic battery life, poor memory management, unreliable applications, it crashes randomly, bad bluetooth stack, I could go on and on SonyEricsson must have gone out of their way to produce a phone on which virtually nothing works. Nice keyboard, rest of it is utter rubbish!

  • bought this phone last week , its overall a great phone but with some bugs ;) the audio support:.mp3,.aac the video support:.mov,.mp4,.3gp ps:if you guys want a business phone with camera just go for nokia E70 and stop complaining ;)

  • plz tel me the max upgradable memory of the m600i, and all the sound/video formats that can work on the phone.

  • why would it have a camera?

  • the only complaint about this phone is, HOW CAN IT NOT HAVE A CAMERA??? lol

  • I bought this model 3 weeks ago...dissapointing phone...soft problems...with corrupt memory message at starting,also i had problems whith management of contacts,(pictures of contacts and individual ring tones), slow in operations, too sensible touch screen,poor speaker...

  • there is arabic software comming soon

  • its amazingly wonderful!

  • no wifi - no arabic software which is a major problem in the Middle East

  • ive used a lot of kinds of video formats, all worked

  • An OK phone but unless you get a great deal go for a Windows device instead, like the SPV series. The M600 is great from every point of view, with a few notable exceptions: - The sound is not loud enough to replace my iPod, even though the quality is OK - The M2 stick sucks, it's expensive and hard to find, why did they have to bring a new standard?? - I tried watching several different formats of movies on it, nothing worked.

  • To jonade : music sound really great To srk : I hat a E61 and I sold it for the M600. Reasons-very un comfortable to use, the size and the small buttons. Try dialling a number and see how hard it is to push the right key. Before I thought the same but know I can say that m600�s keyboard is way better.

  • Great handset and very useable. I love the web browser and the push email.

  • the e61 display actually seemed worse to me, colours looked like dead my advice to u is test the scrolling on e61, ull be horified by the joystick and movement speed, i know i was, thats what meant me go for the m600i also, swiss pro manager claims that m600i has 16m colours... im not sure whats the deal with that

  • this fone maybe gud .. i dont have it but i plan to get the e61 ... the advantage of e61 over this is that that one has wi-fi and has more colors like 16 million and one more advantage may be of e61 is that maybe for sum pl typing maybe difficult on it coz one square button has 2 letters and e61 is one button for each .. m600i has touch screen that e61 doesnt but i think i would go for nokia e61 ... samsing pda is also gud but that too lacks wifi but has a camera

  • considerin the w810i shares almost everything with the k750i and by the looks of things this is the same in the w950 and m600i scenario, sound quality is probly the same... (an even clearer answer...)

  • the question is wrongly placed because the 2 phones have different handsets, but the sound quality is really good

  • hi guys, how is the music output quality through headphones ? is it by any means comparable to the W810????

  • I had this phone for two months and is quite ok. It froze only two or three times and also it has restarted max five times with a �explanation�  :�the phone has restarted in order to improve performance� or something similar. But these are small problems that are found in almost every phone with OS.In my opinion is a great phone and at a reasonable price.If u anyone has questions please ask.

  • i have power saving on and i dont get any switch off's the only problem i have is that sometimes it doesnt connect to the internet altough the signal is max, but im not sure if its a network problem or phone

  • Anyone experience auto switch off? my fone is just 2 days old and it has automatically switched off twice already. dunno whether it has anything to do with the power saving?

  • im using it for 1 week now and the os is running smoothly with no freezes

  • This phone HANGS. Highly unstable phone. hangs with even 1 SMS. Thanks Sony for using people as testing material.

  • I have had my M600 for a week now..the problem is that it freezes on average 15 times a day.At times I am foced to remove the batters off and restart it.Is there anything that I perhaps forgot to activate on my handset maybe?

  • i dont think there is a micro stick 4gb card and i doubt the phone would support 1 from my knowledge max is 1gb, but it may be 2 (correct me if im wrong) as for organising music, the functions in the phone seem quite advanced for a mobile phone. im not sure how different the firmware in w950, if the music application is firmware dependent or simply an aplication installed on the symbian uiq 3.0 os

  • standby values are completely different from phone usage reducing brightness, disabling 3g if ur not using it should help improve battery life

  • Great phone, just a pity the battery life is nothing like what is specified by the manufacturer. Any comments/suggestions from other users. I m based in Cape Town South Africa

  • it is good it should have camera as well

  • To Eddie (50), To increase the size of the text,open Messaging then tap on More (bottom right hand corner of screen)then tap on Settings then tap on Zoom,choose Large.I hope this helps. GOD BLESS!

  • The display is so fine that I can't read the small letter, anyone know how to make the letter bigger? Mind you, I am over 50 yo.

  • The reason being is, The W950i is double the price of the M600i. The W950i contains the walkman software for organising music. I can buy the M600i And a 4GB card for �50 and load the W950I firmware and Bingo.

  • since they both run symbian uiq 3.0, the possiblities are the same if u want w950i, just buy that phone why would u load its firmware ?

  • hello guys, Do u think it would be possible to load the firmware for the w950i onto this phone? thnaks

  • You can set mp3 and aac files as ring tones. As for video calling - this phone CAN do video calls - but just one-way. If you ask me, this is better (though your wife may not like it LOL).

  • Can anyone tell me if you can set an MP3 as the ring tone on the M600i ? Also, is there a limit to the amount of sms's in the inbox before its full and you have to delete ?

  • I'm thinking of buying this phone but the only two thing that is preventing me from buying is that this phone mainly don't have a wifi and not so important but a camera only for video calling would be so great. No need for a camera to take pictures only for video calling is enough!!! Hope that SE releases a new version with wifi and a camera for video calling, I would be the first one to buy this version if ever they release!!! And I think a lot of people would do so and hope so also!!!

  • If you keep asking for a camera, you are certainly not part of the target population for the phone. Is a BUSINESS PHONE. Get back in some 15 years. P.S. Did you know that cameras happen to be forbidden in some places, like certain industrial facilities?

  • in a word BRILLIANT love it to bits, always was a nokia guy and applied for the m600, i've had the phone for 2 weeksand still cant get enough of it display is brilliant functionality exelent like i said BRILLIANT phone...........................

  • Who gives a rat's ass about a stupid camera. I'm upgrading to this phone over this coming weekend. Can't wait. Sick and tired of all the extra gadgets they put into these phones. A PDA like phone is good enough for me. And the battery life just sounds amazing.

  • good dashing looks! bad thing is, no camera!

  • I love this phone. Have it for about a week. It doesn't have serious problem according to my opinion. Just lack of WiFi I guess. It restarted once when I used mobipocket and rotated the ebook. Other than that, it is working fine on normal usage. There are few minor bugs in the firmware even with the latest firmware but overall it's working smoothly. ;)

  • Sony user: dont think there will be VAIO phone in a PDA smartphone look,.. maybe it's more of a Clie trademark(but then Clie has been discontinued)...

  • If I buy this phone unlocked can I use it in the US?

  • There is Cyber-shot sony ericsson phone. Will there be a Sony Ericsson 'Vaio' PDA Phone in future?

  • i bought this phone just because it didnt have a camera aimed market for this phone : the user who doesnt need a p990i neither a k800i

  • Actually i got the phone for like $500..this phone needs a Camera cos of the graphics...i heard someone say the Camera can be attached..

  • Sleek design makes an attraction, but then if this design is applied to P990, maybe same design, just add the QWERTY keypad flip from P910i and make it thicker, then P990 would be very,very nice... M600 is very slim for a touchscreen phone, no PDA have match it's slimness for a moment... if there is, please post...

  • they really need to make this phone with a camera in it.

  • The minute i switched the phone on i had problems - it is slow and drags and i also had software damaged. needles to say, i took it back to the dealer.

  • I bought the phone in august, and I am contiuosly finding new features, I am impressed to say the least. The PDA functions are good, its not a blackberry, but it's good for someone who wont use all the features of a blackberry. I bought the 1gig chip, and filled it music and pics. It has vibrate and speakerphone, the only thing I dislike is having to keep up with erasing my sent txts and call log, if you dont, it really slows the phone up. all in all if your looking for a phoone to hold music and help you get a little better organized, this is the one.

  • some guy here was comparing e61 to m600i i tested the both phones, as he did and my conclusions are different: -> the scrolling in e61 is simply awrfull, the joystick is like a fork gettin into ur finger and it moves so slowly / on the other hand, m600i scrolling is awesome, scrolling weel, touchscreen, back button under the scrolling weel -> well edge > Edge -> missin wifi in m600i is a disapointment, but 3g internet compensates for it. -> i dont know why the m600i would be limited to 2 gigs, but 1 gig is generally enough for anythin conclusion : since both phones are oriented for office/browsing applications, the easy scrolling in m600i should be the thingie that makes u buy it instead of e61

  • Hi i want to buy this cell but have heard some many negative comments i am confused.. The dealer here says it doesnt have any software problem. Also could someone tell me howz the misic player in this cell.. plz plz plz could someone help me..

  • the phone is really buggy dude......check out the net, lots of website talked about this phone. an upgrade of firmwatre will solve the probs. its wat you'll expect from a new symbian uiq device.

  • Brought up on Nokia, Bought Sony Ericcson for the first time. The Phone hangs and I lodged this complaint on SE India website, but like their product, they never bothered to contact back. Not a good choice.

  • anybody knows hows the processor ? Thks.

  • Love it very happy does it do sat nav

  • To GMAC: I tottaly agree with you, I mostly show off my 3 fones in Public places like Libraries and Cyber Cafe's against those people who have ugly and I mean ugly phones like Motorola and older bricks! It's really fun and it makes you feel Honoured!!!

  • errr... just a misstake in specs, i believe m600i has bluetooth 1.2 (which i regret)

  • Well, I payed(for the phone I mean).It is excellent. Of course there are people who still think that phones are a way to show off. and not tools for work.

  • I am no businessman,but I do have a heavy schedule.This is more than a phone.It is my loyal partner.I have had it for a few days and I do ont know how I have managed without it up to now...

  • Well since the past 5-6 weeks I have owned the phone, things are preety smooth and stable. Yes the phone does reboot once in 2-3 days. The only problem i am facing is with the web browzer, it tends to load slowly and does hang up quite often. The only way is to switch off the phone and restart it to use the web browzer... else all other functions are workign perfectly

  • I think the phone is very unstable. I've had it updated but it continues to crash and lock up. Worst/most costly problems I've encountered are that the phone doesnt receive calls or messages for hours. During the 5 weeks I've owned this phone it has been in service/repair for 2 weeks. Sony Ericsson in Finland has been really unhelpful. They acknowledged when I spoke to them that the phone is unstable but said they would be unwilling to replace it for anything else but another m600i. They also told me that the symbian phones tend to be less stable and giving me a new m600 was unlikely to solve the problem. I offered to accept a phone with less features/more stability but they said they couldn't do that.

  • @Alex Are you in Australia? Are you using the 3 network? If you are then that is your problem!!! 3 mobile rip out half the features of most of their phones just to suit themselves. This generally leaves people quite pissed off when their phone is faulty and they usually blame the manufacturer, but it is really the 3's fault. Exactly the same thing happened to them with the N6280, I work for a GSM network and we sell the N6280 with no problems but 75% of 3 customers return theirs faulty due to the modifications they make!!!

  • Does anyone know how to turn the alram off? [email protected]

  • Hi to all! Can this phone receive an incoming video call even without a camera? i tried the Nokia E61 and it can receive an incoming video even without a camera. Thanks.

  • Any M600 current phone user enlighten me, does this phone allow you to surf net?? and does it allow you to load picture and set as wallpaper?? Thanks

  • Hi i want to buy M600i anyone suggest me may i bought or not plz tell me urgent and thanx

  • I have just sent my third M600 back to the shop as it continually kept crashing. I spoke to SE tech supprt and they said that they were unaware of any problems, then i get on this site and all any one can talk about is the problems with this phone. I am very disappointed SE!!

  • Can someone please help me with my 600i i too am looking for the blackberry stuff to download. Please and Thanks

  • u for real bro ? since when does 3 have blackberry ... return that thing and come visit me at an optus shop , and ill resolve ur blackberry solution brotha ..... Is there any way of getting blackberry connect onto the M600i? I have just bought the model from 3 in Australia and it doesnt have it, which is a bit absurd since I made it clearly to the sales that I need it for that feature. I know the other telcos...

  • hey gee tell me ur email id and iwill mail u the blackberry software for m600i.

  • Is there any way of getting blackberry connect onto the M600i? I have just bought the model from 3 in Australia and it doesnt have it, which is a bit absurd since I made it clearly to the sales that I need it for that feature. I know the other telcos have it built in but which 3 it uses activesync instead. Any one have any idea?

  • it does have blackberry connect. post here when u need the software

  • Will it have blackberry connectivity? Please confirm Thanks

  • please tell me how do i find out what firmware i have on my M600i

  • Cleanhands, please be objective,. having wifi in m600 doesn't mean that it will have serious competition with P990, wifi doesn't mean everything but only in business abit, see that P990 has AF camera, keypad/qwerty keyboard/on-screen keyboard/jogdial and stylus, car scanner and more.. not a wifi will bring down P990 that easy because SE freaks will still choose P990 over M600, M600 has cheaper price, good looks but still business applications are no match to that of P990, aside from that, P990 loyals will really choose P990 over M600 even both will have wifi coz P990 is far better in business and leisure...

  • To everyone wanting SE to produce m600 with wifi this will not happen. one simple reason being if u give the m600 wifi then it will take a serious bite into the p990 market and SE have just shot themselves in the foot because no one will want a p990. these two phones are marketed towards different sectors and some will prefer m600 and others p990

  • I want a new SE M600 with Wifi(M610) or a Wifi card built in from MS micro card,.. that'll be improtant for a download-freak like me! SE please produce one! cheers!

  • to mike_1212, just wanna know if nokia E61 supports ebanking? which models support ebanking?

  • I don't recommended this phone, because bad signal receiver, so many bugs in our forum in indonesia this phone had a lot of trouble and when we want to use for mobile banking , I didn't work. When we visit SE service center they said that my problem is normal and a lot of M600i having problem because the R4a002 need to be upgraded. Good Looking phone, but poor in function .

  • anyone who is asking questions reqarding to m600i, i have found a good forum that answers all questions anyone may have its

  • plez let me should i buy this mobil as i have seen in opinions no one has sad good thing about tjis mobile every one is in trouble

  • Hey guys, Need yr opinion over this.. 1. In case i need to browse web sites that use secure connection. (starting with https:) can u use this phone here. I had browsed thru one of my friends iPaq, it worked fine. 2. I am browsing by bluetoothing the laptop to myNokia 6280. Can I do the same between M600 adn 6280 here.(that means i have my internet services on 6280 and will internet browsing be possible on 600 via bluetooth ) these q hard guys, i know but please pls share ur thoughts.

  • its a shame it has a bad contact finder...

  • i am looking for a solution to mobile email without having to carry my mac everywhere. will the m600 do this well or should i wait for the P990 to be released here in Australia. the key things i look for are issues such as ease of acces to contact list, ease of access to emails, texts etc, type of key board ie qwerty. accessability options bluetooth, wifi, infared etc can some one suggest what i should do and why. thanks

  • hello please anybody help me ..i was making update for my m600 but there is something wronge happend after that my m600 never work i want know how to hard rest the m600 with the phone switched off thank you

  • hey i was wondering if the m600i was able to play music videos via data cable? it says you can download it, but i plan on buyin this phone and i live in us.

  • Hey this phone is the best, i just bought one myself, i used to have the blackberry 8700 but i lost it. M600i is much better because its got everything, maybe not wi-fi but who cares, push email is great and its small and sleek. Get the one in white it looks hott

  • I'm thinking about buying an m600i for work and school. would anyone give me any info on it and your opinions. it looks like a great phone to me but ive heard too many bad reviews, does anyone have a good one?

  • Hi - onto my third M600- just bad quality with lots of crashes and various faults - also have a mate thats onto his second - not good for Sony! Had a good old p800 - now sorry I changed to 3G. Perhaps its just the Australian version ?? But I doubt it...

  • my no camera phone option narrowed to SE M600 and Nokia E61. actually i'm quite fond of W950, but at the time of buying (1st aug) no news regarding the actual release date of W950. what makes me choose Nokia E61 over this phone: * M600 supports max 1gb ext mem, E61 2gb (or more? i only tested it with 2gb) * WiFi * M600 doesn't support EDGE, E61 does (for those who needs it) * with all those wonderful features, E61 even a little bit cheaper than M600

  • It does all I expected - except the server lack of Chinese char display. Am now suffering big time when people send me SMS in Chinese. Bad language display for use on the International stage. Should be called M600E for English only.

  • I can live without camera, but hey.. NO WI-FI? :/

  • I got this phone about 2months ago. Although it has no wifi it has 3G.....just as good as long as your service provider supports 3g. I have t-mobile...they wont start supporting 3g intill mid-novemeber. I cant wait. Another reason i like this phone is the fact that is the worlds first/nicest pc phone thats not business orianted*.

  • Hello every body. I have purchased this phone in Pakistan yesterday. I had two options either to go for S.E. P990i or this S.E. M600i. If I were going for P990i it was costing Rs. 44000/= and this for Rs. 25700/=. It means there was a price difference of nearly 19000/=. If I was going for options, only difference between p990i and this M600i, is WLAN. and Camera. For me camera is useless, i have Chocolate, and Samsung X820. so there is no need for camera, specialy business applications are run on this set. Atleast it is not so common in my country. Kindly compare this M600i with P990i and see for yourself. Nice phone indeed.

  • by the way how can u get on the internet??? if no wifi? pay to the S. provider??
