Sony Ericsson T280 - User Reviews

  • I find this phone weird as it doesn't have a center key in the d-pad.

  • How do you increase the sound of calls using this phone

  • By MMS. The only option I can see in this case is that to just send all the pictures you want to save via MMS to an email that you can open on your tablet.

  • a very reliable mobileph. how can i get my photos downloaded to a tablet without using 9pin? cable neither bluetooth?

  • My inbox is losing the capacity to store calls. I have to delete more than one in order to have room for a call. Any advice would be welcome

  • I want buy this fonet280

  • how can i reset the phone lock the easy way i forgot the pin code of my phone...

  • If it's not the SIM-card that locked, the SIM-card has two lock codes PIN and PUK (in sweden at least). If it's the phone that is locked it'¨s oftenly 0000 as default :) If it's changed by a user ...and forgotten. Easiest way is to use the Sony/SonyEricsson SUS/SEUS and reinstall the phones firmware, from scratch. Hopefully the Sony still have the Firmware for T280 for downloading, from the same site can u download the SUS/SEUS. Good luck.

  • hi guys visit this link download themes and music + wallpapers for ur t280i im also thinking about have one ..........its looks goood...........................................­......http://gallery.mobile9.com/c/sony-ericsson­-t280-themes_1633/1/

  • turns out this phone is worse than i thought it would be! in some places they are well and truly robbing people blind charging extortionate prices. what do people think of the screen?

  • how can i delete the numbers listed in 'Recently used' option when sending sms through my T280i. Thanks

  • plz if any1 know then tell me how can i save mms setting n internet setting in t280 plz help me

  • no this mobile phone not support memory card

  • does this phone take memory cards if it does where is the slot for it?

  • does anybody know how to delete the sound/alert when an SMS has been sent? it is really annoying :(

  • Push in the short slot located about a quarter way down on either side of phone and pry back cover open. Note, the whole back cover comes off!

  • it have the maximum capacity of 450 msjz and 50 on your sim card , so it can store 500 sms for you!

  • No, it's perfect for a boy like you who shouldn't expect something fancy until he's old enough to work and pay for it himself.

  • how do i open the back cover?

  • How do I open the back cover? Do I slide it?

  • adding to my previous comment , it has a good feature you won't repeatedly see the message " sms memory full". It can hold 450 sms in memory (plus 50 in sim). If the numbers of pictures in the "My files" is alot, opening it last rather long.

  • i have purchased one of the above brand,i want to know how to download music from my pc to my phone

  • it's rubbish for a boy like me who is 14 years old bcoz theres no usb portals and limited space for music

  • I just bought this phone few days ago SE T280i, very nice and slim (easy to handle). Worth buying this phone but i noticed that whenever we download the theme, you can't view it (blank). I tried to goggle n find out abt the theme issue - this phone does not support theme bcos of the display size. But other function like bluebooth, radio, camera is already good enough for this..SE T20i Lovely product!!!

  • My previous phone was k500, T280 is light, beautiful, and I hope it's colors are permanant.It's plastic quality is good , and has a handfree.1.3mp camera and bluetooth. But about something I am sad I've buyed it, you can not manage folders, you can not associate pictures to contacts.no sound recorder and small screen

  • t280 can use other theme u must pick non animation theme and small size,not all theme can be match for this fone,u must try one by one,i had do that,good luck

  • Very simple, beautiful design, most of the case is made of metal, and plastic elements are high quality, very solid-feeling phone. It's not a fully customizable mobile entertainment and communication device. It's a phone. I love it. I think it's very close to a perfect phone for people who just want to talk and sms. The included FM radio is a nice bonus for when I'm on the bus.

  • You can put mp3 song for ringtone, just make it smaller than 500k and you will not have any problem ...

  • how come this T280i cant download theme?if after download it,how come cant see the theme & all blank one~~~

  • How many SMS can it hold until delete? im thinking to buy this phone because the simpleness, but im getting a package with 3000 sms per month! So i was wondering, so i dident had to delete so much

  • i use my phone for talking and texting and it does both with decent battery, get what u pay for but a decent phone for the price

  • I had this phone for about 4 months. Nothing special. Just a phone. Nothing to mention here, just another regular BASIC phone with radio. performane: 6/10 design: 7/10 features: 6/10 (good 4 its price)

  • it's totaly a waste product nothing compare with w810 or w580 the best ever SE phones,the battery talktime can't reach 12 hours. Anyway let c for further improvements

  • I like the look of this phone!!!!

  • This phone is pretty elegant for its price. However, some "basic" features are missing especially for a colored phone. First is the "Save" phone number feature: It doesn't allow you to save it as an additional number for an existing item in your contact list; you'll have to save it as a new contact with a new name. Second, the template feature: You can add a new template, but for picture message only not the regular SMS message. Third, the "Add item" feature: You can add animations and sound in your SMS but you cannot insert contact number(s), templates, etc., in your SMS. Other missing basic features that exist in other colored phones: * No Photo ID * No Screensaver * No "Recurrent" item feature in Calendar tool * You cannot set your mp3's as message alert and alarm sound * No sound profiles * No "zoom" feature when viewing/previewing your pictures * No MMS

  • I can only write about T280 because I have got one. It is a very cool phone. Such a basic phone has got a lot of features. The only problem I have with the phone is the battery life. You may have to recharge every 2-3 days. I hope this helps.

  • This phone is reli ok for it's price. Basically nokia cannot offer the specs/features in this price range. It comes with metal body too. For it's price is reli ok. But the UI isn't that gud compare to middle/high end SE phones. It suffer lagg and limited memory. But who cares? Crystal clear sound and solid construction, worth!!

  • does t280 have available downloads of themes in the net? how long does this phone last without recharging? i hope someone will be able to help me which one to buy. t303, t280 or the r300. thanks1 =)

  • lovely phone ..

  • get an alarm clock!

  • the alarm function doesn't work! any idea? i set the time and the tone but to no avail.. its been 2 days now that i'm late for work.

  • this phone is ok but the memory card is needed

  • hi guys does anyone know how 2 assign a photo or a pic to a caller or contact. Or this phone doesn`t have that feature ?

  • It has no external slot since internal shared memory is only 10MB hardly 2 songs will be stored

  • hi aLExHs! thank you for helping. no, it has a certain alert tone once the message is sent. and it is not a beep or click, it lasts approximately 1.5 sec. its annoying, i cant turn it off unless i put the phone in silent mode.

  • to save battery life: use simple and small size themes (do not use flash themes), set mobile network to GSM only, do not take picture too often, reduce LCD brightness, deactivate Bluetooth and exit internet when you finished using them. However, most of the mid class phones have a range of battery life from 6 to 9-10 hours of speaking

  • lovely phone .. every should buy it

  • OMG! i got this phone at carphone warehouse for half price and steve and tom are wickid!!!!!!!!!!

  • The battery is terrible when using bluetooth; it will last about 2 days. Another problem is that whenever I loose signal the phone will not regain it back unless I turn the phone off and on again. I hope big brother T650 does not have the same problems.

  • Well Neri do u mean that after u send an message it says Message Delivered?

  • the ugliest phone anyone possible and and wasting their time by writting reviws on ..............

  • I have had this phone for a couple months now and the biggest problem I have with this phone is the battery. The battery is so weak. I do not use it that much, but the battery would not take me through 3 days. Any ideas on how to get maximum performance from the battery. SE can reply.

  • can someone help? i bought SE T280 yesterday. It is ok, however, everytime i send an sms, there is an alert tone after sending. I can not turn this alert off, i can not find it in the settings. please help!

  • It's identical to the t250 very basic but with Bluetooth, we will be selling this soon and i'm sure it will attract thousands of box breakers as it will be replacing the t250 which at the moment is thier staple diet.

  • i just bought this phone yesterday. its an A-OK phone if your just using it as a form to communicate with everybody. but if your a tech savvy type of a person, not advisable to buy.

  • hey can i attach an external sony ericsson speaker with this phone?

  • No video. Number of pictures depends on selected quality & size.

  • What is the major advantages that t280i have over the J-series?

  • 10x

  • can this phone take videos if so how long and how many pics can u take???

  • How to set my phone for photo calls? Thanks.

  • i feel that this phone is a re-badge of another phone. the UI is terrible and so unlike previous sony-ericsson phones. it's not intuitive at all!

  • nice simple phone for its cheap price.Easy to use, easy to make settings. the only inconvenient thing is , that it cannot send many pictures together through the bluetooth. You need to have patience to send photos one by one.

  • Some bad behaviour I just discovered. 1. You can't cancel an SMS while it's being sent to the network. 2. I hate the part where you have to confirm whether you want to send a message though you've already pressed the Send button.

  • its so very ugly............

  • This is a very good for a basic phone. It comes with features that were considered high-end some years back. However, I can't seem to find a way to access the main menu during a call. For example while I'm in a call, I want to check the MMS settings of the phone. I can't do this. All I can do is put a call on hold/retrieve, transfer sound to/from speaker, turn mic on/off, call another contact or turn tones on/off. Anyone?

  • the batteri of the set is very week

  • the batteri of the set is very week

  • During a call conversation, press the "up" button on the 4-way navigation pad/directional pad to make the conversation volume louder.

  • How do you know when the battery is fully charged? The lighting flash does not move. Does the green bit move? The Manual says 2.5hrs. Sony told me when the battery is empty charge for 4hrs and repeat 3 times. The after charge for 2.5hrs.

  • can anyone tell me how can i make the headphone to be louder .. because when i'm talking i can barely hear a thing ? i see it doesn't have a side button like nokia does. so is there another way ?

  • Additional Camera feature review: The phone does have a shutter tone that can only be switched off by turning it to Silent mode.

  • As for the SE Theme Creator, this phone supports similar to the T250 Model.

  • The only way to turn the message-sent tone off is to turn it to Silent mode.

  • No Photo Call feature for this phone.

  • * 1.3 MP Camera - supports up to x4 zoom on a 320x240 pic (small picture size / QVGA resolution). - supports x2 zoom on a 680x240 pic (medium picture size / VGA resolution). - does not support zoom feature on a 1.3MP resolution.

  • I got this phone also for free in a postpaid plan of a certain mobile network. I thought I'd post briefly some of the features that are not mentioned in the specs and since there's no review of it by GSMArena.com * 1.3 MP Camera (not good enough since it doesn't have autofocus; the camera itself doesn't have any kind of protection and can easily get scratched since its lens protrudes behind the phone). - supports up to x4 zoom on a 320x240 pic (small resolution) * FM Radio with RDS (you can turn on and off the alternate frequency manually; can be used as an alarm tone; CAN'T be recorded). * Metallic casing (upper part only, the lower part is made of plastic and the phone creaks a bit with pressure). * MP3 Ringtones (but can't be set as a message tone nor an alarm tone). * Cute EMS animations. Yes, it also has EMS. * Able to delete all SIM contacts at once. * Supports animated wallpaper. * NO screensaver. * NO weekly view in its calendar. * Does NOT have recurrent feature on the calendar. * Organizer includes only plain calendar, timer, stopwatch, and games. * Only 5 present alarm sound. * Profiles not available. * No copy and paste feature. * Contacts in the "Recently Used" list when sending SMS CANNOT be modified or deleted, hence it's easy to trace who were the last 10 contacts you've sent message to. * Cannot be connected directly to PC through USB Cable, but you can charge the battery through it though. * Only got 4 Navi-keys, no select button in the middle. * Memory for SMS up to 450

  • just wanna know if mp3 songs can be set as ringtones or message tones.............

  • Does it do a great job???

  • I got this phone free for a postpaid subscription. I was choosing between the others and I loved the look.. But it can deceive. It doesn't have a group texting like the others, the voice volume is not that loud, like I can't understand what my friend is saying on the phone, you can't adjust the phone speaker volume. So i guess that's really it. You can't hear your caller clearly unlike the other cheaper phones. The camera doen't feel like 1.3MP unlike other SE phones. Maybe because of its color display or whatever. There are some menus that not really a user friendly. You really need to explore, and until now I can't remove the click sound of the shutter tone if its not in a silent mode. You can't customize your message tone, and the first time I tried the phone, it freezes. All I can do is to remove the battery to put it back to normal.. I like listening to the radio so its kinda cool.

  • Yo I just brought this phone a month ago. It cost me 0.2 US $ with 2 years 9 us$ per month subscription. Good offer i can talk a sh**load. I`m very pleased with it for the price i`ve payed. Battery life is good, lasts me up to 6 days in standby, and 2 days if i play around with it. Good sound quality in the headphones, clear bass, radio with RDS is amazing. What you can do with 10 mb memory. Ok, it has mp3 support, but not large memory. So what can you do? Edit a few mp3 files to lower their size. Edit them to have a bit rate of 96 kbps, with frecvency of 44 khz. and tha quality remains and the size it`s reduced to half. It has no usb cable included into a package, but, rather than to buy a usb cable, buy a bluetooth. It`s good and you can use it for something else too. So, upload your mp3, i can upload 4 or just 1 but longger mp3. after i get boared of them, i just delete and put new ones. it works good. Camera quality in good lighting conditions is excellent rather then other 1.3 MP cameras of other phones. You can personalize it anyway you want. Download SE themes creator, and you can make your very own themes. So, if any of you want to buy, and don`t have a big buget it`s worth it. Very good phone for it`s price. Cheers mates. P.S I love is because it doesn`t have joystick, I hate the other SE models with joystick .

  • I wouldn't recommend buying this phone. It doesnt look bad, but the tech inside is just rubbish. A friend of mine had it and it broke after a week.

  • I bought this fone three weeks ago and it has got all features that I need. it is solid as well. Will people stop comparing this fone with the expensive models. Please read the specs before buying, that would help you from asking xxxx questions.

  • ok

  • does it have a good signal receiver? and do the games have to be bought or can you put it in via USB cable? thanks guys!

  • can the uploaded mp3 tone be used in thr ringing tone or message tone? kindly email me at [email protected] Thanks

  • sorry, there is no way giving each caller a specific ringtone with this phone.

  • how can i make a spicial tone for someone on this mob. i have a problem that all my contacts ring the same tone.

  • Games anyone? I'm planning to buy this very soon.

  • i recently got this phone, just wondering if we dont have any options to upgrade its memory since it does not have a card slot. the phone as a whole is very cool except the memory. just wondering if we can upgrade the memory?

  • hey guys, a have a question if anybody could assist. i am using this model for a couple of days, everything seems to be working fine, the only 'glitch' that i have found is when an sms is send i get a sound while the message is send, is there any way to turn this off? its a bit irritating. thank u in advance. regards xx

  • Just used friend,s phone and really impressed with its look very solid and display looks better for low end phone.well done SE

  • Does anyone know whether this phone has the option to record conversations?

  • Well, I think SE intentionally made this phone to be simple and cheap for those people who doesn't like a lot of stuff on their phones and doesn't have a lot of money to spend on a cellphone. I think it looks good although I do think that the 10mb phone memory sucks but at least it's better than most Motorola phones who only has 500kb of phone memory.

  • This is an anti-social phone coz the phonebook capacity is only 300. Lol.

  • I own a nokia 2630 for some time now. then decided to buy this phone as a spare. I like the feel, very solid and the cam has very good quality, considering that it's just a basic phone. Battery life 10/10. I can also play my favorite java games.

  • did sonyericson,s desiner take ghhosh from nokia,moto&samsung

  • @pbert no memory slot? hmmm...that's too bad.. u should know that this is a cheap phone, so if u want a phone with a mem stick slot, buy a k850i or a P1i.

  • there is no memory stick container i mean wat the heaven!!

  • When compared to a Nokia in the similar price range, Sony Ericsson has lot more features ( Call duration disply, Default dial mobile number frm phone book, More memory, longer battery life, quick charging, comes with data cable and software ). I have used 2 nokia phones, 2 sony phones, and also siemens and huawei 3G. My next buy will be definitely a Sony. I am fedup with this Nokia 3110c, which cost LKR 15000, but doesn't have at least a basic feature a LKR 7500 SE or Siemens phone has..!!

  • Can the most of you please stop comparing this phone with expensive models? For the money it's a great phone with a beautiful design.

  • This phone is made for kids and it's very good only for very young customers. T280 have very bad features but it is better in all ways than N2630. Don't compare this two models. In Croatia T280 costs only 55€ without contract.

  • Verry good phone , the design resembles the T650 model , the quality of the body is good , and verry cheap , if you buy it with an 2 years service plan (in some cases free/30 cents + bonuses)

  • a very good telephone, its jus 50 cents in romania at cosmote with a 2 years season ticket.

  • In Poland only 299 PLN = 141 USD = 90 EUR = 71,2 GBP,,,

  • totally agree, nokia has the same look with their previous models. u cant expect for something classy like SE phones. and they extend for years compared to nokia phones. i totally like the way it looks and its so cool.i dont need extras. i have my ipod, laptop for internet. its a cellphone i need. low-end yet looks so pretty.

  • hmmm doesnt this have video recording? seems like the answer to 2630 and 2600classic but those nokia low ends have video function.

  • is very very goog...

  • No Way to transfer data to phone as no USB port only Infrared, whats the big Gain on this? without Memory Slot costing 4k

  • i agree. it looks nice...but the lack of features kinda makes the phone boring, you know. not the kind of phone you'd be glued on for hours. but this could really be better with a memory card slot. too baaaaad.

  • Yes its a cheap phone but i want card slot otherwise music player is useless with 10mb memory.. Else i will spend little more to buy a phone which has card slot..

  • Cool looking phone but with little features.. Atleast memory slot should have been there.. Music lovers will be dissappointed as it does not have card slot.. Having spend 10 to 15$ more one can buy nokia 3110 classic or SE w200i which has memory slot..

  • the memory is WAY too little!!!!!!

  • Center key is actually useless anyway. The left soft key and center key have the same function in most phones, so not necessary - except for maybe in some games. But in games keypad is used anyway so there.

  • is there any java in this phone?

  • I just got this phone it is really nice, however be warned most sites state it has an mp3 player, which it hasn't. And i have not been able to create my own ringtone from an mp3 file (which should be possible according to the SE site). If anyone knows how to copy an mp3 file to the phone please let me know

  • By far one of the worst phones I've worked with. Looks like a phone made from scraps. Yes, a low end, but a very very low end, almost touching the bottom of "low-end"-ness. P.S. It doesn't have a center key

  • just bought this the other day, so its released, atleast in here (finland). looks and feels really sturdy. Has only the basic features I need from a phone. Excellent buy I'd say. Although the bad sides might come up later on, but it's all good for now. Voted: 9 - 8 - 8 bought it for: 92� ps. there was one minus: the ear speaker volume was very low when I bought it, had to read the manual to get it higher (just press up or down during a call to adjust it)

  • Well I've just found out that it really is made of metal even if it's just a low end phone.. The low end netal phones SE has right now are T250, T250i, T270 and T280 to name some..

  • The phone isn't of metal construction although it looks so. You can't expect metal being used in these mass market phones.

  • They should never ever try to cancel this amazing phone for the mass market, I'm definitely gonna buy it!!! It has everything that you need in a cellphone without those ostentatious extras!!!!!! Plus, it's metal... So anyone there who's bought the phone, please tell so I can confirm if it's already out. Thanks!!

  • so this is a metal phone then?? I wanna know that because that would be perfect for me... please respond y'all!!! tnx!!

  • Much better than nokia 2626,would be best in its range, keep it up sony one day you would be on the top in the mobile world.

  • sony ericson makes the coolest low end thy the only make that uses metel on ther low end phones and thay are beter then samsung and nokia go0d job sony ericsson i hope u make more

  • when will this phone come out? they say 1Q 2008 and we are in the 2Q already.

  • To Blano; what ugliest phone youv'e ever seen and are you blind and did you look at the new NOKIA low end phone today it's more ugly looking than SE low phones not like this phone SE T280 low end phone it's much prettier than NOKIA low end phones...

  • I agree Dani that this low end phone is much better than NOKIA low end phones...

  • better then Nokias low end Phones! Better Quality, Better Design.

  • another low-end phone from SE.. I don't mind the specs, but i really like the design!! I very luxurious, and stylish! U won't recognize it as low-end if u just look at its appeareance...

  • :)hope the price not over budget for my kid.. quite nice plus not an additional features, which is not scary for me. haha, my kid will not browse with no reason.. wahahahha

  • How come it's not out yet. :( 1st quarter is almost over. :(

  • if only SE provides card slot, it will b perfect. even if dey sell d card separately. d rest is ok, nice design, simple features, well done (yet) SE!

  • cool design soooo beautiful

  • atleast SE created this phone for basic people who doesn't need to much features on their phone a bluetooth and MP3 and a camera and this phone is colored and NOT like NOKIA when they are creating a simple basic phone for simple basic people who doesn't need to much features it is NOT colored and it has NO MP3 and NO bluetooth!!!

  • wonder, why is it that everytime SE release a mid/low end [hone, it gets so much noise and racism.. well, look at what nokia is doing? how many phone do they release that' worthless, yet you still like it, come on guys, stop complaining 'bout what SE is doing, 'coz nokia is far more crappy than what SE is doing.. peace!!

  • I had a t290 once and i thought it was a pretty neat phone...and wonder could sony build it with the features of the w810i with the same t290 looks? Now how cool would that be?!

  • in Philippines no#1 Nokia Samsung motorola pls support Sony Ericsson

  • excuse me!! GE is the best.. when it comes to refrigirator huh!!

  • Nokia are loosers and for your information when it comes to video camera SE are the best!!!

  • Nokia sucks for your informaton!!! SE is the beat ever when it comes to the pixels!!!

  • still very bad video quality compared to nokia fons.

  • SE rules!!! and Go Sony ericsson and new generation for Sony Ericsson! and NOKIA phones are loosers and look at the new models of NOKIA they lack of many features and NOKIA are still creating lack of many features and the design are the same with the old brands!

  • oh man.......... no card slot in 2008 SE Say goodbye...

  • pretty phone and the design of this phone is built well! the camrera is good!

  • T280 iz a dumb & deef type set what the hell r doing sony ericsson

  • hey Kevin... were you even reading? this isn't a cybershot phone. it's a basic camphone, read it again. Come to think about, SE are really surprising their market. With this new release of phones, they're really going up a notch. SE rules!

  • No EDGE, No Video option, No Memory Card Slot! See What will be the price?

  • why is there no card slot?? what do they expect people to do with only 10 mb???

  • Wow, it's like my T650i, but without all the features... What's with these two new T series phones?

  • Success shall kiss thy feet if and only if thou know thy heritage and preseve and respect that. This attribute is well expressed in the recent line ups from both Sony Ericsson and Samsung. And that's why I simply love their models and the way they exercise their business policy, i.e, phones satisfying the entire spectrum of society and for all the economic strata. Lovely indeed. The design and the policy behind it. My most hearty "Welcome Back" to our good old T series. Enough of sliding the slides in children's parks.

  • Bought a T250i and I am delighted with the build quality and design for such a low price, 79 euros here in belgium, The only thing that misses is a bluetooth connection and a better camera, well I just found my future phone the T280i, very good compromise with essential capabilities but high end build quality and design :)

  • Oops ,the same old style! Wondering , SE planned to use the old spare parts to make this new crap !!!!

  • wana see some future phones?

  • This model is better than T250i, because it's have bluetooth and mp3 ringtones functions. And T280 style is very nice for a lot of people. Good job, SE!

  • And stop comparing this phone with all the Nokia Classic craps!!!Its quality is better(alluminum front side not a plastic one)!!!! And stop be so maniac fans of Nokia... GET A LIFE!!!! SE RULES!!!!

  • EXACTLY Agelos Maybe some Nokia owners could be satisfyied if SE was able to release a 10MP cam phone for 50 euros. GOSH! This phone is for it's use, ok? Cheap and with good quality. OVER! And as Agelos says, SE has an excellent phone for every use! SE rules!

  • Hi guys! Just think what you say!This phone is a cheap phone just for the basic use(calls,sms,radio...)!It's not a walkman,mp3 player or cybershoot cam! If you want a cam just buy k850i,if you want a smartphone you can buy P1i and if you want mp3 players SE has a lot(w880,w660,w610,w580,w910 and more) with the sound quality that only SE can give you(cause of SONY master of the sound). So,i say that this phone is just for the basic use...some people does not want all this craps that we "tech maniacs" want from a phone!!!! SE RULES ! ! ! ! !

  • All the Nokia funs are here to put SE into the cave. C'mon guys! Leave SE to do her job and tell to your company to start making phones without problems! SE rules!

  • This is a basic and cheap phone, without memory card, that means that the 1.3MP camera is awesome! It seems to have good construction. don't blame it before you see the price!

  • WTF is up with SE and coming out with all these crappy basic phones. thats what motorola is for.

  • SE is failing now. This phone suck. 1.3mp? Whats the matter with SE? What happen to the phones with better camera quality and autofocus?

  • Low end phones? Welcome to Canada!!

  • Low specs ugly cell phone. SE is going down without any high-end phone.

  • Proof that lg rules!!!!!!!!!

  • its only a Budget phone..the competitor for this a Nokia 3110 Classic this is better

  • this phone is good bad AND .....UGLY..............

  • dont like design. its like every other SE

  • pathetic !!!

  • Yeah, and why every one newest from the T-seies is so useful

  • SE, back to the drawing board... or to the bat cave, perhaps.

  • Those phones are for people who can't afford a expenisve phone...SO STOP COMMENTING about its features.....if u have money and posibilities comment on those for you.....

  • i love sony ericsson but i must say this is a crap.... i mean who 'd like to use such a fone n ow a days when there r alot of very good featured fones r available in the market....

  • i think SE should focus on the K & W series more
