Sony Ericsson T600 - User Reviews

  • I have this phone cute still working in 2018 i just charged its battery from long death and then boom working again and i fixed signal issue by adding a piece of copper paper and boom again calling so amazing and normal working fully nice

  • is it available t600 in india markets?

  • It's a wonderful phone I loved it so much, but now I need a battery to it, I have Xperia neo V now but I still want to use my old T600

  • Its well known problem, caused by too flexible PCB. The "network-responcible" IC looses contact to it and has to be re-soldered.

  • I had this phone back in 2003, as my first mobile phone. It was so expensive back in the days...After a few months, the signal of the phone became weaker and weaker by the day, and all the time I thought it was just my network provider's problem! 8 months later, the phone couldn't get any signal anymore and the shop told me it was a "serious problem" that would cost me half of the money of the phone to fix, so there went my first ever short-lived phone...

  • I have one this model but It does not show network.

  • i want to like very much this set now a days this modle not aviabele whear is aviabele give me adress

  • i want to like very much this set now a days this modle not aviabele whear is aviabele give me adress

  • I used this model a long time ago and because it is so cute I kept it. It was ok for normal use. Now I can't find the place to buy the battery. I wonder if anyone can help.

  • bcxbcghxbxc

  • Hi teo, i tink 2 recover reception problem, y not try sending it 4 repair 2 service center or shops.... Further questions about ant se models >>>> [email protected]

  • is there a way to solve the reception problem guys? what is the fault? does it have to do with a part? could i solve it by changing something to the phone's settings?

  • It's here :-

  • I have the silver one. And it's absolutely ADORABLE! And tiny. Very very tiny. When you're talking to someone, you can't even tell you're holding something.

  • Hi I bought this little gem as soon as it was available here in Sweden, a number of years ago. It was expensive, well over 300USD. I wanted the smallest possible phone with SMS, good keypad, timer and stopwatch (I do a bit of running and exercising (need the stopwatch to time rests between sets)), and the T600 was my choice. It has served me well, and is still fully functional, to my surprise! Thanks for the tip about getting the battery firm in place with a little piece of cardboard, in case the reception goes bad. But I havn't noticed this as a problem with my phone (my phone har firmware revision version 2A, and maybe they had fixed some bugs from earlier firmware?). But I have noticed that the back lid loosen up a little bit over time. If my T600 dies on me I'd go for a really small Samsung or Motorola clamshell phone, with timer and stopwatch. I still prefer the lightest and smallest sized phones, as I wear them while jogging, etc. Bye from Sweden!

  • This was my first ever mobile phone! Loved how tiny it was and light as well. A lot of my friends found it hard to type text messages on it but I thought it was not so bad. Then it broke down after maybe a year (or less actually), just couldn't find network anymore. Seems like I'm not the only one though!

  • Lovely little phone. Having 750 mAh battery from www.buynshop.com/productinfophp3/CF-BTSY-T66A cannt find any bigger. Is 900 mAh battery for T600 a dream? cheers...

  • I have one of this phones and there is a problem with it's network reception, is this a major problem of the T600s or it's only mine? I need help with fixing it. I love the size and design that's why I don't wanna throw it. I wish you could make such small coloured screen ones. Thank you

  • i found one of these phones at work but it was farked. its nice and small but there was a bunch of these phones that had major reception problems(hardware)

  • If you change your battery with a stronger one(900mAh), and solder the phone processor in a service, all the problems with the reception will be solved

  • the bigest problem is the reception !!! also it's a small phone and to light

  • Someone gave me this phone and I was about to chuck it as I was having the reception problems. The phone is very small and light, a little bit fiddly if your trying to SMS. Seems to just have a few features less than my T65, but at least it's much brighter! But it's still not for me, I'll give it to my mum hehe Try the solutions listed below it might work. It's still too nice a phone to just throw out. thanks to the other posters =)

  • tiniest of all, best to hide, and so light.

  • excellent quality , reception , fast processor, nice screen.

  • Just bought the T600 4 my girlfriend. She lost her Siemens c61. Got a new Sims card & activated it. Phone doesn't work. Did I screw up with compatability? Will try the gerrit...maybe itll work??

  • Hiya this is my 2nd T600, my first T600 was a 2nd hand phone, it worked for a day or 2 n then started showin the message "No network" tried to get it repaired form a local tech n dun know wht he did with that phone it heated up after half an hour of the repair n it never wored again, then i took it to a SonyEricsson service center, they said that phone is of no use n cannot fix it. had to leave that phone with SonyEricsson people, then brought another one around 5 months back, this one is also a 2ndhand , had to go for a 2nd hand phone reason being that the product was an outdated product, n was not awailable as a 1st hand, even tried on ebay cudnt find a brand new product, i love T600, thats best phone one can have.

  • I was also very disappointed in the sleeping bug problem, losing network all the time, until I tried the solution by gerrit. Put some cardboard or paper to make the SIM press better against the contacts. Put in battery. Then fill up remaining space with some more paper/cardboard and close it with the battery cap. My T600 lost network within 3 minutes of turning it on. The Gerrit solution has made it running for 6 days straight now, no problems anymore!

  • same like masa; i had my first t600 that gave problems in finding network. under guarantee it was repaired. after a few months it failed again. still under guarantee they gave me a new one, just one year later this one is also broke (always same problem) i noticed that this phone couldn't stand heat, in summer i had to place it above my airco in the car and then it could find a network. a friend had the same phone, and had ...the same problem; seems that this is a general production fault

  • I have been using the phone almost 2 years. It started giving problem for Searching network. I thought the problem may have something to do with loose connection of SIM card. I have put small pieces of paper inside the phone, as padding above the SIM card. Now it works fine. Sometime get problem for Searchng Network. Then I open it and again adjust the papers inside and it works fine..

  • I have this cel for more than 1 year. It was working so well until a month ago.. now is searching for network. I really love it.. it's small, triband (i have a real need for a triband), integrated antenna, NO flip open (i hate that).. and it has all the functions i need... Now i am searching to replace it but i can't find these features in an small cellphone like this.. if i find on internet this model.. i will buy it for sure...

  • my phone is dead ... network problem, like most of us it seems....

  • No network error means one of the electronic parts does not function any more. The service center will not fix it. I love the size of this phone. However, I feel SE is cheating the public by selling them something that will not last.

  • i had this very tiny one for 1 year. it is small but has cool sound quality, carrying is good, cuz almost you dont feel it.

  • I've had this phone for 2 years and I can't complain. It's cute and small and wasn't too much pain. I flushed it in the toilet and it went through the drains. sigh.

  • Hello everyone !!! i have this little nice phone, but it is always in searching for the network. Can anyone here or there help me with the solution for this issue ? Please drop me some ideas - [email protected] Thank you in advance !!! Good luck

  • i have t600 . its cool and works properly.

  • Sony Ericsson batteries are crap, standby and call times are always oversatetd and misleading

  • Hello T600 users, lovers and haters, I own a T600 for two years, smallest phone existing on the market. Fancy. Period. 60g. Tri-band. Who wants more. So small I lose it in my pockets. This phone does have a problem with disconnection from the network: following advices have solved my problems. The worse of all this is SE hasn't even looked into this problem. That's why I'm thinking of buying a Nokia, a phone however fancy it is is of NO use if you cannot receive and you cannot call or refer to Service to fix it. 1) The first is that the standard battery 610 mAh is a bit weak for emission/reception in closed places. The stonger the battery the better the network connection: ON ANY PHONE. Batteries go bad with time. After a year or two you should consider replacing with a new and possibly stronger battery: I advise the 760 mAh for the sony erricson T66. Same fit. 2) Second, the battery seems to get loose in its casing with time and can move without you knowing it. You will lose your network. It will not exert enough pressure on the electrical contacts. I have pressed the battery slightly on boot up, the netwok problems I have been having for the last week dissapear (I was going to trash it). 3) A remedy for this problem is to apply scotch tape inside the battery cover, 4 or 5 layers or more until the covers close snuggly and tightly. Hope this helps some of you out there. You can buy a 760mAH battery at WWW.cellularbattery.com. First try to charge your exisitng battery and check if you have battery connection problems. Jetset

  • This phone always drops the network, paid 200 dollars for it , have to throw it away. BAD MANUFACTURING QUALITY. Will not buy a Sony Erricson again. Nokia or Motorola = quality manufacture.

  • Sir I have pblm with Sony Ericsson T100 model.Now at present i am in Mumbai.Pls can u give the nearest centres in Mumbai so that i can show my instrument for rectification.

  • Everyone told me that should not use this phone because it always shows "Searching network" or "No network" or "Emergency only" I think it is reality, there is the problem about signal. However, I still like it.

  • This unit along the way with T66 were the smallest SE mobile phone I've ever seen. Wanted to have this one before but have no money then. B/W and gray shades phone however are not in great deal now. Second owned handsets of this kind are cheaper so if you like this kind of phone, grab 'em (if you only like texting/calling and kill the time playing built-in games).

  • worst phone ever!!!! its just a piece of sh*t, i hate it so much!!! it appears to have a unsolved software problem, which makes it stop working any 2 minutes. PLEASE PEOPLE DONT BUY!!!! whale done sony ericson you idiots!!!

  • i want the new one

  • Tina, i've tried Vrally, deep abyss and mini golf.and out of these 3 only Vrally is pretty interesting far as im concerned. its a car game as the name suggests. the controls are easy and well its like anyother normal mobile phone car game.but it's pretty interesting.deep abyss is a game where you've got to avoid falling down from a steep hill or colliding with this bird that comes flying your way.there are balloons that come from below so that you get on them and go up.its not really great and pretty slow on Sony ericsson phones as usual!!! mini golf is pretty confusing and hard to play.you have to mark the direction in which you want the ball to go and then hit it.but it always goes in a different direction !!! WEIRD !!! so i guess you wont be missing much without deep abyss and mini golf but Vrally is nice and i think so should vrally 2..it sounds the same though ive never tried it. cheers

  • Could somebody write their opinion about any cell phone games (Super real tennis, Tony hawk pro skater, Vrally, Vrally2,minigolf,Deep Abyss) Thank you

  • I got the NO NETWORK problem,too. How to solve it ??

  • what a rubbish, great big bucket of toss of a phone

  • Absolutely hate this phone! It was always "searching network". First thought it was a providerproblem but wenn I gave the phone away to a friend, he had the same problems. I hated the sound of the ringtones. Very weird was the phonelock. Wenn the phone asks you for a code, just wait a while and the phone will accept you by it's self. So everyone could enter en use my phone... 3 months after I bought this phone I noticed that in Holland all the phoneshops stoped selling this phone. Guess that says enough....

  • Please email to [email protected] shall anyone know where to get T600 now in Singapore.

  • I also have the no network error. After 1 year its dead...

  • Omg' this phone is s!@t it always say no network if you can fix this problem tell to [email protected]

  • Very SMALLLLLLLLLL and light. simple and strong... cute...clever....and highly reccomended for children and girls

  • my t600 develope the NO NETWORK problem 3 weeks ago. It has been in the SE service center from then. SE should really look in to this problem on T600.

  • i once using this cell phone,it's quite nice..small,very light..you can hear the ringtone loudly..well,it's a good,average phone..it suits for children and girls only.

  • Phone stop working with "NO NETWORK" message. Please Help.

  • nice fone but i don't understand how to create our own melodies ???? it is also difficult to find ringtones for this fone in the net... can anyone help me..??

  • it nice but, if you were my friend don't buy it. BEcause during the 6 months that i had it i always had many problems with: -charging -games after level 3 of game 4 the phone restar it self -i was loosing network most of the time. i took the phone to sony-ericssons service and the gave it back after 14 days telling me that the phone is out of guarantee because of negligence of the user :) and mechanical shook :)))) ( i never droped it ; it looks perfectly) THIS IS THE ANSWER THAT SONY ERICSSONS SERVICE GIVES FOR EVERY PHONE WITH A MALFUNCTION FROM THE FACTORY THIS IS AN ADVICE FOR EVERYBODY WHO WANTS TO BUY A SONY-ERICSSON PHONE, but especially for the ones who live in ROMANIA. YOU ARE the JUDGER THINK twice......

  • I have had owned 3 T600 and every one i have had has lost network or screen display. Not a good phone !!

  • bad reception battery lasts 3- maximum 4 days i had one for 2 months and i dont liked it at all all i wanted was a small phone but the smaller the bad....dont buy it or u will regret that

  • Phone stop working with "NO NETWORK" message. Please Help.

  • Cool phone! it�s so small,low weight, talk&standby time about 5/6 days! tri-band, good sound , strong signal and works perfectly here in Brazil! Hugz!!!

  • this phone may not have many features but look at it, its so cute and fits really nicely in your handbag!!! when are they bringing out a version with bluetooth?

  • It would like to know if all the lots of the T600 device are with problems of reception and access the InterNet. Mine this in the store ha 4 months without return.

  • im interested on how much is the reatil price of the SE k700 model, its not yet reveal here in the phils. how much it will cost. it seems its a great phone. anybody from the manufacturer would like to give me a hint on the price of this unit, estimate only.

  • I D I O T

  • this phone is grate but i can learn more about it how if it was made to an easer style user

  • its good and resasonable price and performance

  • I have been having problems with reception now and then. At a shop where they repare cellulaire telephone they told me they are not going to touch that phone because they all have reception problems, with which they came from the factory. At the store where i perchase my T600 they told me that the person at the repare store where telling lies because they never had any complaints. They hold my phone for 4 days but didn't do anything with it. They just gave it back and told me there was nothing wrong with the phone. Please reply [email protected] [email protected]

  • give me the latest ring tones composer for sony ericsson T600. ring tones likes black eyes peas, rnb and also rock ring tones

  • nice phone bitchez ;)Note 4 tha reader : i said PHONE ! not muthafuckin' PC , camera ,mp3 player , radio , pc monitor , etc... who needz a muthafuckin' screen saver on a phone ??? must be an idiot ;) who needz color display on a phone ??? must be an idiot 2 ;)

  • T600 is a good phone but needs improvement in terms of data and blue tooth technology

  • i want new tune of my phone.how do i set new turne?

  • I've ever used it and change to use many other phones and I come back to use it again because I impress the smallness to pick it up and complete functions but one thing that I need is capacity of battery (should be more long life than this)

  • Its a wonder ful mobile with good battery time and strong signals, good size, but if it is in coloured graphics that would be great

  • The smallest and lightest Mobile that I ever have!

  • My T600 has a little imperfection i think...It doesn't line at the left side.The parts are not perfect in line.Do you have the same issue...?

  • It would be a masterpiece if it has speakerphone, color screen and voice recorder features.

  • Nice phone but in this day and age Colour Screen in an absolute must. SE when are you releasing a colour screen version of this phone?

  • It is a very good phone, has all possible features (T9, sms status report, long sms, wap, ... all that you can wish for in a basic phone and comes with the best quality (menu speed, sms speed, screen readability, ...) It really has everything except colour screen, gprs, java, bluetooth, in one word it has what you need. Battery is ok. Not recommended for heavy users though. Its size is excellent for those that want to have the phone with them all the time (can't be beaten); it is too small though for those that make a lot of calls or long calls (not so handy when calling; earpiece also heats up). In the second case get a big phone like the A2628 or T200 or so. In all, I find the T600 very underestimated. When people complain about their mobile, it is about something the T600 does better or afeature they miss that the t600 has.

  • Of course the battery is going to be bad - the phone weighs 60g! That's also why it has no features. It's just a cute, tiny, light, barebones phone. Perfect for me.

  • there are no instructions for the games, and i ABSOLUTELY cannot figure out how to play Triango!

  • i'been 3 weeks use this handset,...and there's no more i can say except it's great......nice

  • I have one T600 Sky blue, used for 6 months. Manual/charger/battery/box all included. Warranty is valid only in Singapore. I like this phone but just got another phone. Hence I want to sell this T600 at US$110. I will post to you by registed air mail. Not to worry, I will deal honestly and sincerely. Plz add US$10 for registered postal delivery. Good working condition. Lovely white light. Excellent blue keypad when lit. It is TRI-BAND - LIGHTEST IN THE WORLD 63 gms. Please sms me +6594599222 or email to: [email protected] Will reply asap. Tnx for viewing.

  • A good hand set so small that one even cannot fell, the features are good what we can expect else from tiny phone.

  • so little,smart & ergonomis

  • so sweet... l love it... too handy

  • hi everyone , wat ringtones ? . go to & www.esato.com. go to software , find a ringtone converter for nokia to sony ericsson . have a nice day

  • It's a VERY GOOD gsm . Can you help me where can I find a secon d battery for it? Thank you ;+)

  • it is so small!

  • 25 SMS in its internal memory... :-)

  • My Sony Ericsson T600 cannot used for six hour non stop. If its happen it will be hang

  • I like this phone coz it's small n light. eventhought there is no FM radio inm this phone, still this phone is the best

  • Check out the new SE T610 - 65l colors, bluetooth, irda, polisounds, integrated camera 95g , 102 mm . It's superb. Photo and details in italian - click link :

  • I was given this phone as a present and have had it for a week and a bit now (was hoping for a Siemens S55). All I can say about this phone is that if you just want a phone without all the other stuff then get this one. Its small, light, easy to use. The only problem I can see in the future is the back case (where you insert the batery) coming off. It is a bit lose.

  • alritez! how about storages of SMS? how many can it store besides the SIM card capability?

  • Yes, it can view picture message from nokia !

  • is it capable of viewing picture messages?

  • For V. N. Naik : 250 numbers, duh !!!

  • Cud you pls let me know the T600's phone memory (no. of names) that it can store? Thanks & Regards,

  • i want to buy

  • brill little phone . why do people keep going on about battery life . give it a break its like a wafer ... 10/10 sony&ericsson keep it up no one has made one as cool yet BRAD

  • send me more details of this mobilphon

  • i can't get ringtones for the phone any where do u know hwere i can get some?

  • Battery gone very fast.

  • Mladene mozes otic na CROGSMov forum-www.crogsm.com/forum(Mladen you can go to CROGSM forum)

  • Pure design, small but handy. General manufacturing quality is exceptional. A thing of beauty! Functionality is good; works fast, has the usual SonyEricsson menu structure which you like or not. Standby time is sufficient; depends largely on how good your network is. It's size makes you wonder how you could have put up with those big black things all that time. If you want GPRS and PDA-functions, stay clear from this one (though it has a nice calendar)

  • It is very light! and simple design and handy!

  • I like it. It is almost too small.

  • I bought this phone 2 weeks ago. The standby time & talk time are quite good for it's size (2-3 days). There are many interesting feature in the menus that Sony Ericsson didnt campaign it, so we just know after we try ourself. Very fashionable & makes everyone looks at you because it's small size & light weight!! But it has no GPRS feature and IR port. I like this phone... -Thank you-

  • people are obsessed with colour display. Can't a great phone do without this feature? I think so...

  • i want a ericsson t600 and i give you the money... OK?

  • it 's desgin very nice but my mobile only show SOS CALL'S ONLY

  • i agree with dery. in this modern age, GPRS, IRda and colour LCD is a must.

  • I think the mobail is very good in every think, but not in network serching...his network riciving bad realy ......

  • One thing:This phone is made to look good,and fell good in your hand,it definetly is small,an light,but NOTHING MORE.Its pure fashon phone.

  • Most of the existing accessories (either Original or other brand) are not compatibles!!

  • Men I am going crazy about this phone. Am a Nigeria, we love mobile phone in this country. if I can get this kind of cell phone then am the best phone owners in Nigeria.

  • I think Sony did a good thing redesigning the Ericsson T66, bust its still a show mobile, dont't buy it for performance

  • this mobile ia a handy little cat.it beats the 8 nokia range in size and low weight.it fell from my hand onto ceramic:nothing hapened.only bad thing:no bluetooth possible

  • its a very fast phone.......very stylish and cool phone !!!!!!

  • Show phone. Small,light and fashionable. ...but what about the talk & standby time? Menus? Bugs? Yak! Still got to learn more from Philips and Nokia. It is better for Sony to hold on TVs and for Ericsson to hold on AXE. No hard feelings.

  • excelent sound!, cool design, glamorous key and screen. Well done Sony

  • its a cool mobile phone. small and efficient.a must for those planning to buy the Nokia 8250.

  • The NOKIA 6310 kicks its ass whenever it wants.

  • I love this phone it is small,light and fashionable. The only problem is the battery life run out fast ....almost have to recharge the battery every night.....I with my friend find out the T600's light of the keypads is very bright , it is brighter than Nokia 8890 , if the light keeps turn on for a long time the battery will run out faster, we think this is the reason why people keep complain of the battery and the (short) talk time. The Phone meuns are improved ,the respond are faster than T39.

  • With that size T600 is such a cute phone but i think or maybe someone else have the same thinking with me too....that the battery of T600 really...really bad!!!

  • i like sony Ericsson, just minded. Thanks

  • I love this phone so much specially it's size. How I wish I can compress all the gigantic features of my Siemens S45 into this T600. But I know it would be impossible. I carry my T600 just for fun and show-off. But I still rely much on my S45 because my life and main business files are there.

  • I love ure phones send me the price list thru my mail address

  • Does anyone know when this mobile will be available in Germany?

  • I am eager for the P800 with a PDA integrated. When available/price?

  • it's look very nice, but i'm not sure that this phone has long enough talk & standby time. note : no GPRS, no IRda, no colour LCD.

  • What do you think of this

  • i am very dissapointed about the talk time of T 600, why is it to short??

  • Why everyone want to know that price? i Dont know what price it is in your country. but in Thailand, a SHIPPING T600 is about 10,000 bath (around 230 US Dollar) if you want any price of Mobile plz mail me n' ask.

  • can anyone that can ship to AUSTRALIA give me a price on this phone please? (email me)

  • excelent n i like that but i don't have much money to buy it, can u give me free thanx

  • That's is the good model and feature for me and for all. that the best was i knowed.

  • As requested.......

  • its much smaller than 8310......its only 60 grams........and its tri-band

  • the dimension not to far different with nokia 8310 or 6510, but its no radio & design not fun. but the price its more cheap than nokia. mote: it is triband cellular

  • 3229026

  • Please,the price this model. Thank's!

  • can u give me a price of SONY ERICSSION T600. Appreciate send me a mail, regarding the prices of Phones.

  • very nice phones........cool and cute size........check the pictures here
