Sony Ericsson Z550 - user opinions and reviews
- AL
- PQK
I am currently using a Nokia 6125 as a primary phone and VERY PLEASED with it. Now I am planning to get this z550 as a spare. To me, Sony Ericsson (SE) phones are NOT very user-friendly if you compare them to Nokia. I had a SE z530i, HATED its keypad (difficult to SMS quickly with one hand), sold it right after using it for a few days. I wouldn't want this to happen again, and willing to give SE another go. Could anyone tell me if you were happy OR not happy with its keypad?
For those of you who own a z550, please tell me the problems you have had.
Thanks in advance.

I am thinking of getting this z550i. Have heard all the great things about it, now I'd like to hear some issues/problems that you have encountered. Would appreciate all genuine response.

Just bought this phone yesterday. Battery is holding up good so far, and i'm generally pleased with it. The interior and exterior really suck up your fingerprints though, and the projection is not very loud, but okay. This phone does NOT come with a data cable, which sucks! if you want to put data on your phone, you will have to buy a usb cable, or a bluetooth device for your pc. first impression, i think 7,5/10 is a fair reflection.

hi every1!got mine 2 weeks back. gr8 phone. radio is good, camera good under natural lighting conditions and the processor is really fast(no hang ups as yet). mp3 player is good(not as good as an ipod, but thats because of the bad earphones). and battery life is great to say the least. plays mp3s continuosly for 12 hours. to darkray, i am not able to play wma or aac files as the phone does not recognise them. could u just suggestsomething because the manual says its compatible with aac format. thnx in advance. all the future owners, just go ahead and buy it. its a price-performance champion.

I have got this phone quite long ago. May i ask if anyone could tell me how to maximise the use of camera for this phone? I want to know more about the lighting condition it works best on and the distance it can take to maintain its sharpness. Thanks in advance.

if you had read all reactions you would know that the phone only comes with charger and stereo-headset. A2DP means the phone can stream music to a stereo bluetooth headset
to darkray
tnx :) I'll keep that in mind

Rhythmicdia is right
http://www.thetravelinsider.info/roadwarriorcontent/quadbandphones.htm
Scroll down and you'll see that Australia uses dual band network (900/1800)
Since the Z550i is triple band it will work just fine for you :)

why should not it work. Well, correct me if I'm wrong. If your provider network supports GSM frequencies this phone supports, then you should be able to use it. Better call up your provider and confirm the frequencies. This phone supports 3 bands. This is just my guess, so guys pls correct me if i'm wrong.
