I think sony are a bunch of cock suckers. They should stick to hifi. I spent good money on my z7 and I don't use it any more. I went out and bought an ericson t68, great phone with colour screen. Battery lasts longer than the z7 also. So Sony GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER!

a huge backwards step me thinks. A phone that you can't hear ring. hmmm....

I've got a J5 and my mates are all pissy because I can't ever hear it ring when they call me unless I have it sellotaped to the side of my head (much too quiet - polyphonic is bollucks). The vibrate feature is best used only when you'll be keeping the phone down your pants as you won't feel it otherwise. So, looking at the Z7 it has the same ring tones and vibrate - and it's thicker. I wouldn't use this phone if it was given to me!! it sucks!!

I dont have this phone but I was thinking of getting it but not anymore. Apart from what others have said, it also does not have the built in answer machine of the Z5! Sony seem to have botched this one, its crazy to make a phone bigger/heavier than its predecessor! its not as "cute" as the Z5 and who wants Polyphonic Ringers anyway? Oh and I dont like the curvy flap, it would be better square. Sony you have messed up a bit !

LONG REVIEW WARNING
I've just bought the z7 having owned its predecessor and I've got a few things I'm slightly pissed about.
The bad bits
It doesn't ring and vibrate at the same time - can somebody please tell me why sony didnt bother with this?
The alarm doesn't work when the phones switched of - what is the point of the damn thing then ?
The ring tones are shite - if you just want a normal ring, then look elsewhere, as this phone is full of the shitest tones I have ever come across

The good bits
its not a nokia
it doesn't look too bad once you get over how fat it is

O.k. maybe not the greatest of reviews but I'm slightly annoyed that instead of improving the features and functionality of a great phone (sony z5), they (sony) have removed some of the features that made it the phone to have.

If any of the above doesn't bother you at all, then I encourage you to be different from the nokia crowd and buy this phone - if I had my choice again - I'd wait for the SL42 to come out on orange.

Can't vibrate & ring at the same time!
You can set ringer volume either too high or too low. Sony lied about software for connecting phone to PC - they haven't got it!

i had one the good points are;
the screen is very good very big almost as big as the one of z5 or even more) the buttons are bigger and so it is more comfortable to righ sms
the new jogdial is good but it seems to be fragile ...
the bad points:
the ringtones are poor , they dont ring at loud at all , the vibration alert is like there was no vibration
the amber backlight is not my style
SO IF YOU CANNOT EVEN KNOW WHEN SOMEDY CALLS >YOU WHY DO >YOU BUY THIS PHONE ???!!!
the games are very very bad so no comment
ask me other things you want to know

nb: i changed my z7 because i had enough of it !

I have had loads of mobiles, almost every good one on the market right now, but at the mo I have a T68. However, I feel the best phone Ive ever had was my Z5. Is this any better and has anyone actually got one or used one...is the screen bigger and is the phone itself much bigger?

Please let me know asap.
