Advantages: Good value, lots of features, very long battery life Disadvantages: I found the joystick fiddly
...I was attracted to the Sony Ericsson by it's looks (I wanted something small that would fit into my pocket so I always had it on me) and by it's price - I just wanted a cheap pay as you go. It is available in shadow blue or misty silver. I thought this model was the best in this price range and it was advertised with the following key features most of which appealed to me:
Triband - Works outside Europe e.g. the USA
I wanted this feature as I spend ... ...again I find useful and easy to use. I use it like a diary and always carry it around.
Finally I have found the Sony Ericsson website useful:

Advantages: Very loud & Very pretty Disadvantages: no blue tooth and vga camera
I only purchased this phone last week and i am generally happy with it. it is quite abit different from my previous phone - nec 411i.... The reason i purchased it was because i needed a phone and i wanted one that was nice to look at and was small but not too small - (if that makes any sense...)

However i was a bit disappointed about the camera ... ...megapizels - which is quite low compared to my last phone, the picture gets very pixalated when you take it. but when you go out of the picture and then back into it again, its a bt better (:s) The phone also does not hae blue tooth - but i didnt really mind about that use i use only infrared mainly....
Anyway enough of the bad stuff...

Advantages: Good Features For Price Including Video, Easy Menu, Excellent Battery Life Disadvantages: Feels a little light and a bit fragile!
...is very typical of the Sony Ericssons, and easy menu system. It doesn't try to be too clever, and is very intuitive. In my opinion, taking over the Nokia's which are starting to rely too much on reputation!
The only grumble I have is the general "feel" of the handset; it does feel a bit like a toy, and not very robust. Very light, almost empty!! However, it is a relatively small handset, not too fiddly with a very usable joystick which is very easy ... ...are not compromising quality.
Sony Ericsson have done well with the k310i, beats other budgets phones out right. Fantastic. Recommended as a simple, easy to use phone, or for those wanting a bit more from their handset but on a limited buget!!
Please message me if you have any specific questions on this phone!!! ...

Well ive just got this phone for Christmas and i know how to use it already it's so easy.

The battery life is good when fully charge normaly lasts over two days depending on the amount of calls you make.
It has quite good options for you to use and everything you need really from your mobile phone, it takes a little getting used to if you have ... ...The phone comes with the following:

Advantages: Tons of features for a low price Disadvantages: Not a significantly high quality camera
...a few days and the Sony Ericcson K310i had all of the above features and more! The second best phone at matching the above criteria I could find for under £100 was the Motorola V3, but that had a tiny 6MB space as opposed to the k310i's 15MB! O and of course V3 was almost double the price.
As well as the features mentioned above, the Sony Ericcson k310i also features the ability to play polyphonic and MP3 ringtones, a small photo editing program, ... ...currency converter, face warp and news reader, WAP and GPRS access, complete organiser and easy file manager. Its packed! The battery life is also very high compared to similar priced phones
Even though the camera built into the K310i isn't as advanced as, say the much more expensive phones like the W800i, it is still of a high enough quality to catch those unforgettable moments. It also comes with a VERY handy feature that allows a 0.3 Megapixel ...

Advantages: Excellent functionality for the price, stylish design, very useful reminders function Disadvantages: Unreliable joystick, virtually unnecessary VGA camera
...Many of my friends with Sony Ericsson joystick phones are also experiencing this problem, which is extremely irritating and seems to be a basic design flaw.
A great buy if you're lucky with the joystick, but those who want a phone guaranteed for a long time should look elsewhere. Or at the very least, make sure you take out extended cover! ...

Advantages: Cute, small, easy to use, clear screen, clear sounds Disadvantages: Not a lot of features, no bluetooth, camera quality isn't that great
I have only had this phone for 2 months, but I really like it. I only use it for calling my mates and sometimes texting, but it has other features if I get a bit bored. It has camera with video capture, which for a £50 phone is very good. The quality is ok, but it isn't that great. Still, for it's price, it is good. It's small and light, so it doesn't feel like you're carrying a brick in your pocket! The screen is quite big and has clear picture ... ...always download them for £3 or get them sent to you via infra-red. The infra-red device is good, sometimes a bit slow, but I've received a lot of ringtones through it. There is a large game selection to choose from, mainly demos, but they're still fun. I love Erix. Very addictive! Me and my mate have a competition going, needless to say, I'm losing! He has the same phone as me, but the silver one. The two colours are very nice and don't look cheap ...

Advantages: Small, Easy to use, Reliable, Long lasting battery Disadvantages: Not too many features
Well, First off i have had this phone for three months now. I have never ever had a single problem with it. The phone itself is extremely simple to use, as it is not packed with loads of high-tech gadgets to weigh the price down. You will find a handy camera that is video capapble. It has all the features of a normal phone -texting, calling, WAP but still includes the camera a few fun games and a lovely colour screen. The battery on it is extremely ... ...pockets. My battery lasts up to two weeks but im not an 'extreme' user. The only disadvantage to this phone is that if you are a person looking for laods of cool gadgets then this is not for you. If you are looking for a phone that is affroable, great for a present for a first time phone (ie child) then this is perfect. ...

Advantages: Not bad price; compact size; nice looking camera. Disadvantages: Joystick is fiddly; not sure photos are very good quality.
This is my first camera phone and I\'ve only had it a few weeks but I am finding it a bit fiddly to use. The joystick is awkward and will take some getting used to. Had a really old Nokia before which felt a lot sturdier. This was on offer though so great value for money really. Find it hard to zoom in on photos and video but it can be done after a bit of messing about. Not downloaded them yet onto my pc to see quality properly but on camera quality ...

Advantages: Great features, nice looking Disadvantages: Riddled with faults!
I've been very disappointed with this phone. At first I was impressed by its features, eg it remembers which words you write most often when composing a text message - you don't have to scroll through 'good' and 'hood' to get 'home' if you write 'home' most often, for example. It's also a lovely size and looks great. I like the large screen and the look of the menu. The camera is rather disappointing in quality but I wasn't expecting much.
However, ...
