Bad Points: Definately the worst phone i have ever had. two tin cups and a string would be much better.when you set the alarm for a task, the time goes blank. when you tap the time, it changes, but then disappears again.when you type an mms, the text flashes with every letter typed. used to disappear completely, but after sending my phone to ericsson, it now only flasheswhen you get an mms, the message opens, but then disappears. you have to tap the screen to see what it is. if the mms is playing, you have to stop it and read it normally.sometimes out of the middle of nowhere, it restarts "to improve performance".touch screen isn't working well. when you calibrate, you have to tap 2mm right and 3mm up on each of the four spots on the screen. in some apps it's accurate then, others it's still off.sometimes the letters n and z don't work, but that's like once every two months.last week my task manager refused to open up. had to restart the phone.constantly switches between 3g and gprs.when you have internet connection problems and you disconnect the connection, it goes into a deadlock for a minute and then performs every operation you requested while trying to get it to work again.when you're busy typing a message and you lock the keys and unlock it again, you have to press the "alt" button before you can type, otherwise it only does numbers and symbols.when i got my phone, the scroll wheel didn't work too well.that's about all i can think of at the moment.
General comments: If you can, avoid the Sony Ericsson M600i phone. it is a lump of rubbish and with about 20 bugs that i found on it in the beginning (from general use, not hunting for bugs), i rate it as a dud. perhaps you should look elsewhere for a phone, like nokia or htc.

The Sony Ericsson M600i is easily the worst phone I have ever owned. It is so bad that I ask other people f I can use their phones because mine probably won't work. It is impossible to see the screen in daylight, it hangs during calls and during texting, it needs to be rebooted at least once a week and the battery life is the worst of any phone I have ever had since 1992. It also exhibits extremely poor signal strength. The stylus also falls out of its holder all the time. This is a case o ...

I've been using this phone for about a year now and it constantly fails to deliver.
During calls it has rebooted several times (This is a 3 to 5 minute process). It terminated the call without warning and then displayed a message saying that it had restarted to improve call quality!
I rarely switch the phone off as it takes so long to switch on but this then leads to the software getting screwed-up.
Bluetooth to the PC is a hit and miss affair and Bluetooth to my car system (Parrot) mak ...

I've had this phone for almost a year now, and have thoroughly enjoyed owning it - having come from other Sony Ericsson smartphones like the P800 and P910, this has been both a natural progression in terms of its smart features, and a revelation in terms of its size and weight - for a smartphone, let alone one with a full qwerty keyboard, this phone is really pocketable!
The M600i is a full office in your pocket, complete with a full email client (capable of using push email services like Bla ...

I read some other people reviews and some people have to ring Sony Ericsson to complain about whatever is wrong with the phone. First of all nearly everybody doesn't have phone insurance, only because most of us don't see a point of it. But since I got this phone, I got insurance. When I got the phone I knew it's got a lot going on in one small phone, it's basically a mini computer, it's more for business phone then average showing off phone, so why in the hell do people not get insurance? Surel ...

Well this Sony Ericsson M600i phone is excellent, it has everything you expect from this phone! The only two things missing are camera and Wi-Fi but there are many people that really do not need those things. The phone is very stable and has great 3D games, and you can also watch great quality videos in your cellphone. The mp3 quality is excellent (even better than many Walkman branded phones). Btw, having Word, Power Point and Excell in your phone is really great and useful.
Another high poi ...

I have had this Sony Ericsson M600i phone for 3 weeks and the touch screen cannot work. If M600i touch screen cannot work, that means this phone is junk. After a week, the screen saver cannot work, and the battery goes down very fast, it needs to be charged everyday.
I called 10 times to Sony Ericsson, but still cannot get this phone replaced or repaired, poor support!!!

The Sony Ericsson M600i mobile phone is designed for the beefy business user. It has internet, email, 64Mb of memory included, bluetooth and multimedia functions, but unfortunately, it has no digital camera. Apparently, us business types don't need one. It's thin and sleek looking, and it is pretty lightweight considering all its capabilities, and I like the phone on the whole. The weird keyboard is a bit aardvark though, as it's got these strange dual keys which you press on one side or the oth ...
