Sony Ericsoon K500i revealed.

Advantages: Excellent audio and display.
Disadvantages: VGA camera only, Joystick gets stuck easily.

...Sony Ericsoon K500i revealed In November 2004, I bought my Sony Ericsson K500i for £130. Design With its silver cover, the body of K500i looks like it?s covered with heavy load of metal so it is really surprising that it?s very light and just weighs 80 grams. Its shape makes it look like no other and that made me attracted to it instantly. The overall design from front, back to sides instantly made me long to own it. The uniqueness of the mobile phone is simply eye-catching. Upon turning it on for a test, I was so impressed with the clarity of its screen display. The K500i has 128 by 160 pixel TFT screen which is capable of displaying up to 65,000 colours. It provides excellent image. The animated icons are really fun to view especially the moving wallpapers. Cover The cover of K500i looks like silver metal but it...

The Self Destructing S500i from Sony Ericsson

Advantages: Seems ok.
Disadvantages: Might be complete and utter failure

...My friend bought this phone, roughly a year ago at a what was a fair price back then. The S500i is aimed at women, and has a special feature that will change your theme (when you open and close your phone, by sliding it). In January you will get cold colours which will slowly change and become lighter and greener, perfectly in time for spring and so on. I've heard it is quite nice in December when it is christmassy. And with a black cover and green keypad it can look quite nice. The menu is fairly simple and can be changed, but basically has 12 icons. Like most sony ericssons. On the front you have two soft keys, the back key, the clear key and two shortcuts. You also have the navigation buttons and the the middle button has a contrasting green trim. But why I am reviewing my friend's phone...? Well you will soon know...

Sony Ericsson S500i - Fashion over practicality

Advantages: Stylish, cool features, good quality camera
Disadvantages: Not suitable for larger fingers, quite slow and sometimes crashes

...I have owned the floral version of this phone (http://images.google.co.uk/images?hl=en&rlz=1C1GGLSenGB291GB321&ei=jKciSsT4G5KsjAe82O2wBg&resnum=0&q=s500i%20flower&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi) for roughly half a year. This phone comes in a variety of colours, such as black and green, white, yellow, purple and silver. However, I bought the limited edition Jemma Kid version, which is floral and aimed towards females. Apparently if you buy from the Carphone Warehouse, you receive Jemma Kid nail varnish and lip gloss, but I didn't receive this since I ordered mine online. This mobile still appears to be for sale on some websites, although it's not as widely available as the normal designs of this phone. The keys on this mobile are very thin and small and it took me a while to get used to texting quickly with them, but it's not much...

Sony Ericsson S500i

Advantages: Sleek, lightweight, large high resolution screen
Disadvantages: Needs regular wiping to remove finger marks

...Lovin' it! Had few problems when first got phone but this was due to network faults rather than phone. S500i will defiantly turn heads. It is equipped with many features for the mobile phone user who is always on the go & wanting to stay in contact with friends, family & work colleagues. The overall design & style of the phone I believe is inspired by nature which includes the colour of the handset, the internal patterns & materials used to create a smooth desirable handset. S500i comes with a smooth slide opening mechanism which when opened reveals the sleek keypad & natural design of phone. The phone comes with hidden light effects which brings the S500i alive when an incoming call comes in. Has a large & clear screen which displays up to 262k colours on a 240 x 320 pixels resolution screen. The screen can be viewed when the S...

Sony Ericsson S500i is not worth it :P

Advantages: See Review
Disadvantages: See Review

...after about three weeks two of the keys had cracked. The crack was quite literally right in the middle of the keys. When the keys on the phone cracked, I looked on the internet to see if anyone else had had the same problem. I found that there were lots of people whose keys had cracked. I don't text a lot, I normally just phone so I was surprised to see that the keys had cracked. You can still use the keys when they've cracked but it didn't make the fact the keys had split any better. The phone measures 99 x 47 x 14 mm and weighs 94g. Overall I think that just because of the poor quality of the phone, the Sony Ericsson S500i is not worth it....

Sony D-NE500 Review - A Year After Bought

Advantages: Equaliser, CD/RW, MP3 playback, CD Text support.
Disadvantages: 40-18000 Hz frequency range, won't save any settings except EQ when battery replaced.

...The Sony D-NE500 would've been a truly good player if it wasn't for Sony's conservatism and somewhat careless treatment of features. The user interface is decent, it has the typical Sony joystick/scroll wheel that are common for professional-line Sony equipment. The player came with a remote and a simple belt-mounted plastic clamp for the player (it is not, however, a case, as the product description states). Both the remote and the player itself have "hold" buttons. The user interface is comfortable, the playing title as presented by the LCD display is scrollable, and the LCD can display a good amount of information. An AC/DC adapter is a separate buy. The player reads ID3V1 and ID3V2 tags (though it gets confused badly by UTF-8, so no international character support beyond the basic European Latinic variations) and CD...

Sony multiscan F500

Advantages: Good monitor
Disadvantages: no

...Hi, my name is frogger and here is my opinion about Sony multiscan F500. F500 - the first monitor, acuipet tube Trinitron flat as across and on a vertical. This fact, in aggregate with newest electronic gun Сони and high technology of focussing does(makes) the given monitor ideal for professional problems(tasks). In flat Trinitron the cathode with the raised(increased) maintenance(contents) of tungsten that sharply has allowed to raise(increase) density of an electronic beam is applied and, thus, to improve focussing. The same purpose is served with technologies of electronic lenses MALS and EFEAL, compensating increase of the size and distortion of the form of a light stain at removal(distance) from the centre of the screen. Rather small step of an aperture lattice of 0.22 mm now allows to work with sanctions...

A Great System from Sony

Advantages: Nice Classy Design, Great Graphics, and a Good Online
Disadvantages: Small Gamelist Thus Far and Some Games Suffer From Framerate and Graphical Pop-Up Issues

...Sony's Playstation 3 is thier third go around in the Video Game business. My console reviews usually consist of reviews in the following categories Controller, Graphics, Multiplayer/Online, and Game Library. Much like the Xbox 360, i'll also be reviewing the Design of the PS3. The design of the PS3 is the more classy of the three new consoles. The PS3 is a black square system with a curved top. While the design is beautiful, this system is very big, matching the 360 in terms of size. The system also offers Blu-ray but, in my opinion, that should not be the only reason you should be spending $400-500 on this system. The PS3's controller is the classic Playstation controller once again and that shouldn't be a problem for any gamer. The original PS3 controller was the Sixaxis but is now Dualshock 3. For a company that created...

Super System - Sony Style

Advantages: Nice size, easy to operate
Disadvantages: Only one tape deck

...The Sony CMT-CP500MD is basically a Micro Hi-Fi System, with CD player, MiniDisc player, Tape Deck and Tuner. I was fortunate enough to win this little system from Sony and received it in April this year. I don't claim to be a technical wiz on hi-fi systems, so if you are, I apologise for the lack of technical terms, but I hope that this opinion will make sense to the less technically minded of us!!! THE MAIN UNIT The main unit of the system is predominantly silver in colour and is box shaped liked most hi-fi's. It stands at approximately 30cm tall. On the top of the unit is the tape deck - I found this quite unusual as other hi-fi's I have owned in the past house the tape deck(s) on the front of the unit somewhere near the bottom. In addition, on the top of the unit is a long narrow slot... At first I...

Review of Sony CMT-CP 500 MD

  Another 5 star Sony!

Advantages: Great functions, east to use, looks and feels good and produces great images.
Disadvantages: The kit lens isnt the best and no live view may bother some.

...- 105 35mm equiv.), NP-FM500H rechargeable battery, BC-VM10 battery charger, Video and USB cables, Shoulder strap with eyepiece cap and Remote Commander clip, Body cap, IDC and IDL Software/USB Driver via CD-ROM( Note: no Memory Stick media nor the adaptors are included and are purchased separately) So if that list of specifications and the review that went before it have not made your mind up then here are another couple of things that may help sway you. The Sony A200 also has an excellent anti-shake mechanism built into the body which means you have no need to buy expensive anti-shake lenses to get those steady shots at low speeds or low light, it can also capture shots in burst mode at up to 3 frames per second and can do this continuously in JPEG shooting until your memory card is full which is great for sports photography and a 10...
