General Comments

I have the Sony ericsson k600i and the first time i saw this phone, i thought that this is an upgrade to the one i have but i was really wrong...yeah the phone is stylish but what a waste of money if you'll gonna buy it...this phone really sucks, i tell you---no infrared port, no flash/photo light, no shutter and camera cover (if you'll scratch your camera lens then you're up the creek!!!), and no FM radio...fine, this time it has memory stick but that's all it have, that's all...if you already have the k600i, i do suggest to just be contented with it or better yet just have an upgrade to w900i or p990...this phone isn't really a good investment and will never be a better phone upgrade...nice try Sony ericsson but honestly this phone is just all about beauty, no brains...I'm just hoping that Sony ericsson will release a better version of this phone which has the (NEEDED!!!) features that they have taken out from this one! so, SE k650i, anyone?!

   Sounds to me like your only giving such a poor review because your so fed up at the fact you upgraded and didn't feel the need to. Really if you buy a phone, check the specs for what you want, its only your fault for buying a photo without a camera shutter. You don't even really need one, what you gonna do, get a key and 'accidently' scratch it on purpose lmao.
   With a 2mp camera, the light is going to be fairly good into the lens, although a flash would be nice. It has bluetooth for goodness sake. Think I'll get one of these on a 12 month contract.

   They have not added those features because they sell them separately, like the flash for example. You can buy it and attach it into the charging port and then use that. Yes, it's easier if they just put one on there, but it's their way of making money I guess. Also, who needs radio when you can upload MP3 yourself? No infrared... who needs that when most phones nowadays have bluetooth, and that's a lot better. No camera shutter? Unless you personally get a pin out and scratch into the lens, I, for some reason don't think it will get damaged, since the lens is no doubt made of a material which doesn't scratch easily. After all, I'm sure they have thought about it in the process of making the phone. I the Sony Ericsson K610i is a good little mobile phone myself. Although lacking some features, all the features that are needed are there. I think it's a rip off at the price though. But hey, I didn't pay anything, so I'm a happy bunny =)
