As for the ringing volume, k510 is quite loud. Although I happen to notice that some ringtones don't play loud enough compared to others. Try donwloading Sony Ericsson G900 ringtones. It's very loud... :-)

And is the screen readible in the sunlight?

Are ringtones loud? Is it really not possible to turn off shutter sound?

I now have SE j110... I know, very basic but ringtones are loud and screen is readible in bright sunlight, although colors fade.

I don't know these negative comments about k510's display. It's good. You can't expect more than that. k510's between lower-midrange type of phone. Try looking at the price. Don't compare it with phones that got 240x320 resolution. Better, compare it with other phones with the same specs and see which is better...

Can you add words to the t9 dictionary?

In t250 it is not possible but in my current phone J110 it is possible.

Is it possible to use a sound profile so the phone only beeps when call received?

1.3 MP Cameras are recently backdated, but a superb camera is there in K510i. Most others company provide those 1.3 MP Camera with just 1280X1024 Pixel size. But in this Phone, camers produce True 1.3 MP Picture & Quality also. Its a good and cheap mobile, but not with its MEMORY(26MB Free).

i used to have this phone before and i have to say that this phone beats most of the cellphones that i had. it's cheap, its camera is good, the sound quality is also fairly good, and i think you can overlook the 28 mb size of the phone since it has a lot of other good features in it.

if you're a cellphone user who likes to put all kinds of stuff in their phones then this phone isn't for you but if you like a phone that's simple, easy to use, and affordable - then this phone is highly recommended.

Anyone who want to pimp their K510s, try Zedge.net. It's a great site. Lots to download.

> In reply to Akshay @ 2008-06-12 16:12 from uB8ZFive times? You've got to be kidding. Maybe you just don't know how to use the joystick. Haha. Sure, mine's has this problem of not responding sometimes when i press downwards, but thats after using it for a year.

it's a complete SHIT phone.trust me...you DO NOT want to buy it.you can bank upon this comment.the joystick is just not right.i reckon it's a manufacturing defect which probably has been the cause of SE not marketing this phone at all...why else do you think would a phone with THESE many features for this crappy a price not be marketed AT ALL?!coming back to the joystick issue,my handset was COMPLETELY REPLACED 5 times within one year-i have documents to prove that.the problem of the bad joystick STILL persists(now my warranty is void).on 3 occasions the joystick gave away ON THE SAME DAY i got it back from the "repairs".i completely regret my decision of having bought this pain-in-the-u-know-what phone.read no more,my friend-please give this phone a miss...albeit the camera is super fantastic,though;but that's about all that's good in this phone...
