Sony Ericsson J132 - user opinions and reviews

i bought it cause i need a mobile without a camera and with radio for the army. It is not that bad if you know what are you paying and for or you need a such phone. The main menu is very simple and very basic but it is well built as a plus i consider the option to minimize the radio. The sound quality is good both for ringing and talking. Although sms writing performance and easiness have nothing to do with a more expensive phone (you cannot erase a message from the list, t9 is not capable for new words) it supports group messaging and with a key the swap between the writing methods and languages. Battery is really amazing and the overall phone quality its not so cheap as the keypad is better from a few more expensive phones.

Finally got hold of this phone, but I am really disappointed because of the lack of entering my own words in the T9 mode. Sigh... Guess I should just return to using nokia's low-end sets.

Frustrated, 19 Jan 2009It#s been asked before.....but no clear answer
How do you get the back of the phone to inse... moreI explained it and I think I was precise enough. To repeat myself:
Instructions on how to open it: there is a small hole in the back of the phone. Use your fingernail on that hole, pull it downwards (towards the USB and earphone connectors). It will click and slide down aproximatelly 1 mm. Now hold that small part that slided firmly, with fingernails of one hand and stick your other hand's fingernail (index finger) into MiniUSB port. Pull in opposite directions, it will open.
To eject battery there's a small hole inside on the lower part (close to USB ports), where you stick fingernail or screwdriver and it will pop out. SIM card is under the battery, easy to put in and remove.
If you eject the battery you will have to set the time & day again, but that's liek 15 seconds work.

Alarm clock doesn't work when phone is out!!! No spelling suggestions, you can't add words to the dictionary. Pitty because the rest is good.

its t9 typing speed is above average i.e. faster than other brands except Nokia. i can type 'complicated' twice fast w/o problem when all the keys were pressed correctly.
since there's no memory slot the stereo FM radio with RDS is very useful cos its 3.5mm audio jack is compatible with any standard earphone!
the best thing abt J132 is its price in UK. it cost just £4.84 plus £10 airtime purchase. i only paid £4.84 in total after trade-in my old nokia phone. and its unlocked too.
Efire -> go for it. its better than j120

Hi zest im from Singapore too. Haha... Based on my experience on my j120, to enter your own word you just have to press up to reach the last entry which is to spell your own word. As for the message tone I believe you need to put the phone to silent mode (not keypad tone) in order to mute the send message tone.
Anyway, could you help me do a simple test on the J132's messaging, by typing any long words like "complicated" twice using fast keystrokes and the T9 and see if it will be able to display the words without 'forgetting' any keypress? (My J120 showed me "Complace complia" -_-) Thanks! :)

i bought this phone a few days back ago in Singapore @ S$60. great phone for those who do not need camera.
1) However, i want to point out that when using T9 for sms, there is no spell suggestion. Meaning that, if you want to type a word that has no spelling suggestion, you have to off the dictionary can manually type the word that you wanted. So i want to ask if anyone know how the "Spell" suggestion will come out?
2) also when message is sent, it give a message tone ( key tone sound is off), anyone know how to off that?
other than that, this hp got great battery life cos i been using the 2nd day after charing the phone and its still full bar. =)

Can anyone who owns this phone comment on the messaging speed? I own a J120 and something that annoys me is that the phone cannot catch up with my typing speed. When I type too fast, especially when pressing a same button twice, it will simply forget the keypress.
Other low end phones from Samsung and Nokia take time to display what i type but eventually what i was typing always show up, so its not as bad.
Please help me consider whether to do the 'upgrade' from j120 to j132. :)

Genuine enquirer, 04 Jan 2009Does anyone (who actually has one of these)know/ can check - when you loose power (dead / remo... moreIf you eject the battery you will have to set the time & day again, but that's liek 15 seconds work.
If the phone turns off because the battery is empty but you don't remove battery it will remember time & date. That's because when the phone turns off on "battery empty" it means there is not enough power left to make a phonecall. But there is enough power left in the battery to run the internal clock until you recharge it, so you won't have to enter the time all over again.

Mine has excellent battery life, if I don't talk very much battery lasts at least a week, sometimes 10 days, and phone is on all day every day, sometimes when I sleep. I always charge the phone when the phone's off and battery is completely empty. This is version for European market (says EU 900 when I open the lid), branded by T-Mobile Croatia (basic prepaid).
Instructions on how to open it: there is a small hole in the back of the phone. Use your fingernail on that hole, pull it downwards (towards the USB and earphone connectors). It will click and slide down aproximatelly 1 mm. Now hold that small part that slided firmly, with fingernails of one hand and stick your other hand's fingernail (index finger) into MiniUSB port. Pull in opposite directions, it will open.

Hope this helps.

This phone has 3.5mm audio jack and mini usb port. Can be charged from PC or Laptop using standard mini usb cable.
Good battery life. While this is the cheapest, it has the feature of the most expensive SE phone.
This phone can share the same Charger with SE X1.
