Sony Ericsson W550i

i absolutly love this Sony Ericsson W550i phone i have had it for 3 years maybe 4 years and had to change it 3 times due to the swivle because i broke them the latest one has broke due to general wear and tear but has lastest a hell of a long time as brougth it secondhand from a mate last christmas of 2007.

The Sony Ericsson W550i is like a music stereo but in a phone great for music. Great for play music and has great camera.

Overall, a lovely phone!!!!

Good swivel, nice styling,excellent sound,amazing pictures. buy it!

I would say that this is a ultimate sound phone ever it has like the highest mp3 volume.

A very very good all rounder, music player is and Sony branding is its killer

I think that w550i is a very good mobile because it has everything you need. The only thing is that is too big but that is a major problem so i think people should buy it. It's perfect it has covers for girls and boys and that is very good. I have this mobile from my birthday and it is wow. The speakers are great and the radio is super!

If games and music are important to you then the Sony Ericsson W550i is not a bad phone. Some of the software is getting a bit dated so things like mp4 will be a problem. I have heard of people having problems with the bluetooth and software crashes but I personally have never had these problems. I marked down that I wouldn't recommend this phone to a friend because there are better phones out there. I don't regret getting this phone but I wouldn't get another one.

I have had my Sony Ericsson W550i mobile phone since October 2005, and I have hardly had any problems with it. The headphones malfunctioned while I was on the bus, and my (rather embarrassing) music was broadcast for everyone! Also, the message "Inactive SIM" keeps popping up, and I have to turn my phone off then on again before it will work. It has some very nice features though. It has some quite exciting themes, although it could maybe benefit from a few more. The sound quality is good, The camera is OK. It has good games, good memory (can have about 50 songs on mine), and like all Sony Ericsson's it is very easy to use. I was a bit dubious about moving away from Nokia's, but (although it took me a week to learn how to do brackets in text messaging) I actually picked it up pretty quickly!

One problem I found though is that when you try and take a picture, it takes a while, so whatever you are trying to photograph has to stay completely still for about 5 seconds, which is not good if you are trying to take a picture of a baby or animal etc. I would definitely recommend this phone to possible buyers though :-)

I've had my Sony Ericsson W550i mobile phone replaced once due to it completely freezing and being totally unusable. With both phones I found the reception to be quite poor, and phone calls would suddenly end due to no signal, yet when the call has ended the signal is at full strength. As with all Sony Ericsson's, I feel they appear to develop their handsets which are a cut above the rest in functions and style, however, they seem to be unwilling to update their software for their phones, and as a result, the software can't keep up and frequently crashes.

I regret buying the Sony Ericsson W550i mobile phone. It has lots of good features, but no more than any other mobile phone. The screen turns to plain white as if you're holding a white torch, and the same problem has occurred to other W550 owners. If you're willing to take the risk then you can try this mobile phone, but I don't recommend this phone!!!
