i don't really like the phone. i text pretty fast but when i'm done, the phone is still typing what i said. it's very slow. Also, without a memory card it can't hold a lot. I've had the phone for only four months and i think it's broken already. there's no water damage and i have taken good care of it. Now it has randomly started freezing and i can't pick up calls. It turns off whenever i get a text message. It's extremely frustrating.

I have had this phone since early September and I like it. The sleek feel of the phone is wonderful and it is lightweight. I have the purple one and I must say it looks so much better in person than it did on display, the purple is so vivid and the keypad light is purple too!
The phone has a 1.3 mp camera that takes really nice pictures and give you lots of camera options for optimal photos. Daylight, indoor, outdoor and color options are just a few things you can do with the camera options. There are cool sound effects for taking pictures or you can choose no sound at all to sneak some pix ;)
To expand the memory of the phone is very easy and fool proof. There are awesome preinstalled screen savers and wallpapers. The ringtones are really cool too and the speaker is loud and crisp. The phone has a strong ringing/msg vibration(if you choose to use the vibration) The installed games are sudoku and Block Breaker Deluxe. The mp3 music player works excellently and allows music to be played over the speaker phone so others can enjoy. While my power was out from a storm it was really handy to have this cell phone to play mp3s. The bright backlight was really handy too.
The antenna is really amazing. I never have dropped calls or am wandering around for a signal.
The sound quality of the earpiece is great too. i can hear people perfectly and there isn't an echo when I am talking.
It features a "say command" feature that allows you to speak "call name, send email, send voicemail, send messagelook up, go to, check items, turn prompts off" and maybe some more I am forgetting.
The phone also has themes to change the appearance of the phone menus. It is really easy to install and find downloaded files {mp3s, wallpapers, screen savers, games etc}
The delayed call feature is really great. You can use a prerecorded message or record your own that allows a message to play when someone calls and you can go to a quite room or whatever. Example, when I was in a noisy restaurant I received a call and pressed the "delay call" button the person heard, "Your call will be answered in a moment" while I was able to walk outside where it was quite.
There are many cool features on the phone and the overall quality [sound, signal, appearance, screen,etc} makes it a great value.

Ive had a SE Z600 for the longest time ... and i recently switched to motorola W510 .. ( well i kinda had to cus it came with my new contract - all the other fones werent appealing ) .. anyways.. after the switch i immediately regretted my decision. I really "dislike" this phone . I cant hear people clearly at all .. even with the volume on Hi .. i thought it was defective piece and so i got it exchanged only to find out that they are all like that ... half the words are "cut off" / or "swallowed" .. i have to repeatedly asked ppl to repeat things and its incredibly frustrating . Plus , the software isnt the most user friendly .. it just looks flashy , but all it does is, it takes longer (more steps) to get to places/items on the fone . More complicated in other words . I recently just switched back to my 3 and half yr old Sony Ericsson Z600 .. and i couldnt be happier !

My husband and I have this phone from our cellular company for 3 months now. Originally we had a Sony and LoVeD it! They got wet and the insurance gave me this phone as a "replacement". We really hate this phone. It freezes up all the time while playing games, yesterday I could not text because it froze up. Also I don't care for the lack of space on this phone. I can only fit 2 songs on it and the delay in the buttons is really slow. Not worth the money if you are thinking of buying it. We are going back to our cellular company today, it is junk.

> In reply to Candy @ 2008-09-14 17:05 from TR{A - click to readYou can't apply an MP3 as a ringtone. Stinks for the actual cost of the phone. I found a shortcut around the system!!!!! Go to the multimedia menu, go to sounds, there is an option to record a new sound with the phone. Chose your song that you want, play it loud enough on a nice soundsystem such as your home stereo or computer, then hold the phone up to the speaker and hit record on your phone. Then you can apply the new sound as a ringtone. its that easy!! Good luck.
