Sony Ericsson T700 review: Cup of T, anyone? - read the full textLight of weight and heavy on looks, easy on the wallet and keen on getting things done, Sony Ericsson T700 is playing for keeps in the midrange. Stylish exterior, high-speed data, snappy interface and...

Nice review GSM Arena, I think you make the best reviews on the Internet. It is very good that you are not biased (like for example Eldar on Mobile-Review is).

I may get this T700 as christmas gift for my wife, but I'm not sure about the colours. Will there be a red version?

This device is a worthwhile addition to the portfolio. Potential buyers might also consider the K660i which, along with the C702i, is an underestimated device from SE. Whilst the T700 has the metal finish, a 3.2 mp camera module, and the latest SE java interface, the K660i has a videocall camera and dedicated internet keys. People might also wish to wait for the G705 which has wifi and a larger screen. All are good options and the T700's strong design should appeal.

So glad GSMarena finally did a T700 review. I had been considering it for awhile but now I know it's a solid choice for sure. If it's price was down around $200, it would sell so ridiculously well.

some people really like the style of the SE phones.

i bought a w880i 15 months ago simply because nit looked great, had a nice aluminum finish, had some features- though i miss the radio. i have replaced it with a creative Zen X-Fi and will not be going back to walkman series. i had some good times with this phone- anyways. i really do like this phone. am pondering geting it whenever it arrives in Aus- that is if i don't find a new phone sooner.

i am tossing up between the X1 and the sgh F480.

my deciding factor is looks- not reatures. all i want is a decent quality camera, full 3g with videocalling function, and a responsive UI.

lately Nokia phones have gone down the gurgler on both aesthetics and speed. and don't condescend me. i am a mobile phone salesperson- so i know what i am on about- since i use all phones to oblivion before fully charging the battery and selling it- that way i learn all the features and can focus my sales on the "wow factor" of the phone.

lately Nokias have a wow factor but for me it is "wow. how much slower can the N95 & 96 get?"

Wow... I never bothered to look into the T-series.
I've always been staring at the walkman, and cybershots...

This one is actually quite impressive,
Thanks for the review!

Not bad, but if your going to have disadvantages, get over it!

* Only 25 MB of inbuilt memory - comes with a card in the box, so this wont influence ppls decision!!
* No autofocus - fair point
* Tin-can sound from the feeble and hollow loudspeaker - will have to wait and see
* No office document viewer - This is only on windows, and sybian phones, and because its mid range, why bother with it.

OK, nokia handsets have doco viewers, but how many ppl use it. useless feature unless its on a business focused handset.

Looks like a toy.
It seems that gsmarena has exaggerated some its design but they forget that nokia 6500 looks 1000 times better than T700.
Design wise its no different from sony err old boaring, toy like design.

WOW, the t700 really impressed me. Its a budget phone that packs quite a load of features and more importantly its built well unlike some recent nokias, SE, samsungs or LG
