SONY RULE THE (AIR) WAVES THROW YOUR CAMERAS AWAY!

Advantages: So many, beats any other phone on the current market!
Disadvantages: Not a chance!

...arrival of my S700i because Sony had recalled loads of them due to some technical fault, (some handsets were unable to receive text messages), and however, this problem has now been rectified. Although there are some delays with shops getting them back into stock, Also the phone is only available on the O2 and Vodafone networks, I believe, if you pay a huge amount you can also get it on BT and if your lucky maybe on EBay or you can but them for around ...
...Well naturally you get the Sony S700i handset, a hands free kit, 32MB Memory stick, Memory Stick Duo Adaptor, Sony CD Rom, Sony Ericsson Leaflet, O2 Active Leaflet and the very thick Sony Instruction Booklet. ***THE FEATURES:*** I have put an explanation down for the majority of the features on the phone, NOT all, as there are far too many, but the important ones are listed, one or two have no explanation due to the fact they are obvious or I am ...

Welcome to the future today

Advantages: Features-a-plenty
Disadvantages: Quite Chunky

The world of mobile phones is an ever-changing one - just think, a couple of years ago the Nokia 3510i was a top of the range handset (I should know - I took a contract out to get one), nowadays though if a new handset is released without a Video Camera, a decent Internet connection and an F.M. radio then there's a strong possibility that it won't sell well at all, thankfully the Sony-Ericsson S700i has all that, and then some. ** Phone Features ...

S700i - "S" is for sexy, stylish ...& swivel

Advantages: Stylish looks, features, navigation
Disadvantages: locked to network

...been a big fan of Sony Ericsson phones ever since I had a T68i and hated everything about it - it was too small, the joystick kept dialling people, the colours were poor, etc, etc However, when I saw the S700i, I just had to take a closer look. It was the unique, stylish look of the phone which attracted me at first, followed by the impressive large, colourful screen. The swivel mechanism may put off some people but I know somebody who works for ...
...It has a 32mb sony Memory Stick which you can remove from the phone and plug directly into your PC (if you have the right port). Transferring images and files is a simple drag and drop affair as with any windows based pc application. You can use the supplied software but it's just as easy to drag and drop. It has Bluetooth which is the most underrated software currently around. You can send pictures or videos direct to other bluetooth capable phones ...

Colour me butterfly

Advantages: Wonderful phone, very smart, lots of features, amazing screen
Disadvantages: None that I can think of

I just got this phone yesterday, and it is wonderful. My greatest praise goes to it's screen - the colours are so bright and fantastic quality, and it comes with the most beautiful images. My wallpaper is currently a digital butterfly in turquose colours that glows - simply beautiful. My next piece of praise simply HAS to go to the buttons. Sounds odd, I know, but the number buttons on this phone are simply outstanding. They were my number one concern ...
...S700i that I had seen they resembled those of the first ever mobile phones - small, hard, oval and black. However, when it arrived yesterday all these fears were simply washed away. The buttons are soft-touch, so texting does not cause sore fingers and if you look at them carefully you will see that they are actually shimmery. Very modern looking indeed. A lot of people have said that the phone is very large, but I urge you not to let this put you ...

s700i - The swivel phone

Advantages: Good features, large screen, swivel design
Disadvantages: Large in size, heavy

...24.5 mm (taken from the sony ericsson website). Which is rather large compared to similar phones. However, the design concept that Sonyericsson had in mind whilst developing this phone was to combine the features of a digital camera and mobile phone. The large size does give the phone the feel of a digital camera when it is held on its side. CAMERA: The camera on the S700i is 1.3MP and offers high quality images and video recording. The camera ...
...such as night mode, 8x digital zoom, frames and an inbuilt light. As stated earlier the resemblance to a digital camera is seen by the protective shutter on the back face of the S700i. There is a slight lag time between the shutter sound and the actual taking of the photo but once done the photo is shown brilliantly on the phone's large 260k colour screen. I find the camera is easy to use via the pressing of the camera button located on the side, ...

A wonderful phone

Advantages: camera, bluetooth. radio, stylish, large screen
Disadvantages: no case available - easily scratched screen

This phone is one that I would recommend to anyone who was looking to buy an up to date phone with all the gatgets and functions. The phone, although quite chunky in depth, is sleak and stylish, and easily fits into your pocket. The battery life is great lasting a good three or four days on standby. Navigation around the menu is simple and can be done without having to open up the keypad. Phonecalls can also be made and recieved without needing to ...
...to call in your phonebook. However, when you do open the phone the motion is swift and easy and clicks into place firmly. The buttons are a decent size so for those of you with chunky fingers or bad eyesight, the buttons are big enough to read clearly and press without error. I am a particular fan of the (C) button which can be used to delete anything you like without having to scroll through options. The back button makes surfing the net on your ...

Fantastic all-rounder!

Advantages: Good camera, big screen, excellent design
Disadvantages: Lacking in features by todays standards

I owned a SE T630 at the time the S700 was released, and immediately fell in love. The initial things that attracted me to the phone was the swivel design (which was something quite new to me), and the large screen. The display was very very crisp and clear compared to a lot of other handsets that I had seen on the market - and amongst the biggest display too. The swivel design was a manual (I.e not spring assisted), and the keypad was blue backlit ...
...very simply, and the phone design was something I found very impressive. In terms of functionality, the phone had all the features present in previous SE phones, such as Infrared, Bluetooth, Internet, etc. However, there were also a lot of very important improvements. For example, the camera was no longer VGA, but was now 1.3 megapixels - which, by comparison, produced very good quality pictures. In fact, there are still quite a few handsets on ...

s700i overview

Advantages: good camera, easy to navigate files/folders, nice screen
Disadvantages: a bit too large perhaps, and can open in your pocket and call people

I got this phone on a contract with Vodafone and never had a single problem with it. It has plenty of easy to use features, such as converters for weight and distance etc, a simple calculator, some fun games, the ability to play mp3 songs (although they cannot be used as ringtones) and a huge capacity for holding texts. It is a large phone and is sometimes prone to slide open in your pocket if you're not careful, despite the being a small plastic ...
...a slight disadvantage, I certainly wouldn't let it get in the way of getting this phone. The screen is large and clear, though walking into something hard with it in your pocket might break it as I found out, so remember to keep the screen facing inwards in your pocket! The camera is also fairly decent quality, and may not offer picture editing, but you can sort that out on the pc as it's really easy to transfer things over. You could put the memory ...

Great Phone but software needs reviewing.

Advantages: High Quality Screen, Good Functions, Good Camera Quality
Disadvantages: Limited Memory Space, Some Software Issues

...The user interface is Sony standard with newer icons. Easy to use and work round even for those who do not use Sony Ericssons much. The swivel action is tricky to get used to, but easy once yoiu are in the habit of it. However, you cannot twist all the way round! The camera quality is good, however you cannot turn of the 'camera' sound when taking a photograph. VERY ANNOYING! Image quality is good, however the 32mb card as standard does not hold ...
...modern and stylish, with good features, however mine has been know to auto switch off, or crash when in the midst of more difficult operations. I have had 2 of these, and both have done the same. Sony need to work on updating and stabilising the software on this phone. ...

BEST VALUE FOR MONEY -

Advantages: User Friendly, Great Picture resolution
Disadvantages: It doesn't look like a cell phone

At first before buying Sony Ericsson S700i I was considering whether to buy a new cell phone or a digital camera. Well, after I found out about Sony Ericsson S700i I feel lucky because I can find a cell phone and as well as digital camera in the same product so that I can save a lot of money. The appearance of Sony Ericsson S700i, at glimpse, doesn’t look like a cell phone. Instead, it looks like a digital camera. I love when I open the S700i to ...
...card reader, don’t worry, the Sony Ericsson S700i has infrared and Bluetooth connectivity so that you can transfer your data trough wireless technology. So, in my opinion Sony Ericsson S700i is a great product if you want to combine digital camera with cell phone so you can save money. S700i is Fun, useful and has plenty of futures. Therefore I think this product is the best value for money. I definitely strongly recommended buying this product. ...

My s700i I cant live without it!!!

Advantages: It has everything you need in it and very snazzy
Disadvantages: A bit bulky

...downloaded for free on the sony ericsson website. It is probably the best phone on the market at the moment – especially for what it does. I’ve only had it a week so im sure there are more things to conquer on it. There is a radio, games, themes, ringtones – its all a hugely updated version of the T610 I had before which is excellent. The camera even comes with a memory stick which means all the pictures that are taken can be stored on that. It ...
...it quite difficult to get used to texting on this type of phone but now Ive been using it for a week im starting to get used to it. The buttons on the keypad are really soft which is weird but makes it a lot quicker to text once used to it. The battery life for the phone is ok - Ive had it for a week and Ive charged it twice so far - but then I have been playing around with it a lot. Ive noticed that using WAP killed the battery somewhat - near ...

Wow what a camera phone

Advantages: Ease of use,screen & camera quality,features
Disadvantages: Size but to have a big screen you have to expect a slightly big phone but I don't find that a problem

...more some for free from Sony Ericssons wap site,the graphics on the games are the same quality as the Nintendo gameboy advance games,radio,Internet for going on to Wap,and the usually other menu items such as settings,phonebook etc.Also the sound quality I experianced when making calls was excellent very loud and crisp and clear,you can however turn the volume of the conversation up or down while you are having a conversation. Overall I think that ...
...done a lot of testing and put a lot of work into getting the camera right,the camera and the screen quality are top notch.I found the phone to be easy to use although I always read the instruction books before I begin.If you are wanting a top of the range phone that will give you great results then this is the phone to get,you will not be dissapointed. ...

Very Cool Phone? But Will Annoy You With Time

Advantages: Large Screen, Large Memory and an Excellent Camera
Disadvantages: Bulky and Little Faults

My last phone was a Sony Ericsson and now with an s700i I have to say I prefer them to Nokia’s, Moterola’s and Samsungs. The initial menu layout makes it incredibly easy to navigate around the different functions of the phone. The s700i has an advantage over recent Sony Ericsson’s is the lack of a flimsy navigator stick. The stylish s700i with its swivel keypad makes it very cool to look at, though a concern that any potential buyer is the durability ...
...phone you will recognise the durability this phone has. A 1.3 mega pixel camera and an overall memory (including the memory card) of about 60mb gives the ability to take over 200 pic's on the top resolution. The only problem is how do you get all these pretty pictures onto your computer to print? Well there is unfortunately no USB lead supplied, so the best option is to buy a bluetooth dongle. The s700i is definitely a very cool phone though it ...
