I changed to this phone after using the NEC e616v - which was just too big for me.
I did want a phone which had a intergrated camera - but having previously had two phones with this before this one - I realised that I didn't actually use it that much.
It still has the ability to received pictures from other camera phones, which is good.
Overall, this is a good phone - it is lightweight, simple to use, and small.
It has most of the features you would expect on modern phones, WAP, Picture messaging, camera (attachable), etc. Because it is Sony Ericsson, you can download (a few) free games from their WAPsite - or buy ones from their Website.
There are only a few criticisms that I have with regards to this phone, the picture quality is not always the best - I have saved a pciture message as my wallpaper - and it is not as clear as I would like.
On the call register list, once it is the next day, you can only see the date that the people called on, not the actually time, which is a bit annoying at times.
To sum up, this is not the most up-to-date phone around, however, it is cheap, and does pretty much everything you need in a phone.

It is a nice small girly phone!! The screen is not brilliant though!

Hi, sorry for the low rating but there's far more that you could have told us about the phone, for example, what's it like to make calls with (is it loud, clear and comfortable), how easy is it to write texts with, what's the battery life like and how much does it cost. If you decide to update let me know (by clicking on my username and leaving a message in my guestbook) and I'll come and take another look. Sandra. x

Advantages: A good transition before camera phones, good color screen, quite durable Disadvantages: Composing text (SMS) is quite slow, keypad scratches easily on average
