 Non-conformist teenager's phone June 28, 2009

My teenage son found this phone and had to have it. He read about it online and liked the reviews, especially about the 3.2 MP camera. The first model one he wanted was not the C510a but a different letter model of the same phone. I called AT&T and they said to look for one with all four of the bandwidths that this model has, so we found this one on Amazon, checked for the bandwidths and bought it. It took more than a week to arrive but it was a good purchase because my son enjoys it. No one else has this phone in his group of friends and it was easy to just swap sim cards from his Krazr and call AT&T to register it. Of course now he's on facebook with his phone and we had to add internet to our bill but he paid for the phone himself and he's happy with it and it's only an additional $10 a month for unlimited internet.
Finally a phones that does the basics properly July 2, 2010

I've always loved Sony Ericsson phones. In addition to being just a little bit differnet, they sport a wonderfully intutive interface and intertesting desings. I've been using this phone for a couple of days and here are my thoughts so far:
Pros:
-Beautiful screen,
-Nicely weighted, feels solid
-Understated design, very attractive
-Keys are good for texting, maybe a little small for larger hands
-Interface is intuitive and snappy
-Phone has a decent set of features for the price
-Charges quickly
-Good battery life/talk time
-Decent reception
-Phone feels well built
-Unlocked version allows more customization such as shortcuts/custom tones
-Camera is decent and has lots of settings
Cons:
-No way to use the camera flash as a flash light (like on the old W810i)
-Call quality could be a little better but is by no means poor
-Volume rocker is small and hard to change while talking
-I wish Sony Ericsson would switch over to micro USB for charging
-No 3.5mm headphone jack
This is by far the best Sony Ericsson phone I've owned, or any phone for that matter. If you are looking for a loaded smartphone obviously look elsewhere, but this is a phone that does all the basics really well and sports a few nice features as well.

Phone came in on time. Phone was new not like new. And unlike other places the seller was honest about all that came with the phone. If you want to be assured of quality get your phone here otherwise buy at the other place.
 A great low-cost Sony Ericsson Cyber-Shot Phone! May 1, 2009

This is a great low-cost Sony Ericsson phone. I've owned a lot of different phones in the past from the Samsung SGH-D900 (Black Carbon), Sony Ericsson W800i, Apple iPhone 2G, and Apple iPhone 3G. Compared to those phones, I would have to rate this phone just as good as those.
Physically the phone is built quite well. There is a slider which protects the camera lens and allows you to take photos when open. The phone has good reception (especially compared to my Samsung SGH-D900), the voices come through clear during phone calls, and the built in speaker has great sound (especially with MP3's and other music.
Also the built in web-browser does a great job but I really must recommend that you download Opera Mini. Pages load in around 2 seconds in 3G or HSDPA (in Denver) it seems as opposed to the Sony Browser which takes around 5 seconds +. What I also like is that the text messages can be displayed in a conversational text which looks like instant messaging. Those familiar with the iPhone texting will be right at home with this.
The only few negatives I could think of is that the camera is only 3.2 megapixel, there's no zoom on the camera unless you're in VGA mode, there's only an LED flash (no Xenon), and my IM (instant messaging) program was missing (I downloaded a new one).
Overall I'm going to have to rate this phone a 4 out of a 5. Mostly for it's features and it's price point.
