I bought this phone yesterday.I wanted a replacement for my old w595(i have used it for 2 years).The w595 is the best phne ever (3mp and 3G) but its flex cable started having problems :'( so i wanted one with almost same features...Enter the ZYLO...the user interphase is better (and is same on all current ranges; hazel,cedar,vivaz,elm etc) I likd the elm(5mp camera) but it was almost 50$ higher than the zylo.I have had the Zylo for two days and its been fabulous...interndt speed is better(than my w595),camera is good enough for me,the mediaplayer is good(not as loud as the w595 but i like the interphase with a rotating cassette.its finish is sleek(i have a black one).I just sxnchronised my contacts from the net.This is a good phne...I almost went for the ideos.Im in Kenya and its almost free...the deal is too good to be true..

Anonymous, 07 Feb 2011the reason behind its shaky camera is that the phone has no AUTO FOCUS .................Nonsense! there are many phones without autofocus that shoot excellent pictures. The zylo is one of them. As i said before, it's one of the best non-autofocus cameras i've ever used in the 3mp category. The shaky picture problem appears to be another defect in certain pieces.

Your current location shown on the map is based on the nearest cell tower.

Here it is, please answer: My Zy... moreWell the reason why your phone is appearing shaky is because zylo doesnt have a high end camera. You could try putting it up against a flat surface and click a random image just to check if it still appears shaky. I am not so sure about zylo since I havent used it, but in some sony ericsson phones theres this option called "image stability" or "image stabilizer" or something around those lines. If zylo has it, you can access it from the options in your camera and try switching it on. That could help in making the image less shaky. Or the best option to do, is to keep the timer on and hold the camera still after yu have clicked the camera button. Because sometimes the camera takes the image instantly when yu click. There always is a slight movement when you click the button to take a picture. So give this a try. Hope it works, cheers

Here it is, please answer: My Zy... moreI was very surprised with the camera quality of the zylo, it's pretty awesome for a non-autofocus walkman phone camera. To confirm the shakyness problem, try resting the bottom edge of the camera on a stable surface, like a table or something and click a picture. Or use a 10 second self-timer, prop it against something and check out the photo. If it's still shaky, then take it to the service center and have them check it out. You probably have a defective cmos sensor.

blackwreck, 04 Feb 2011i've nt bought this phone.
but i think the opera mini not conected problem may be due to the ... moreHmm, there's like just one setting in internet profile that matters, and that's the APN. Username and password can be anything, doesn't matter, the phone still connects. I will have a talk with the provider CC and see if they can sort out something from their end.
Most people here are saying that phones manufactured after december are trouble free. Thing is, what i've seen from reports on this forum is that most zylos conk off anywhere from 2 to 6 months after use. So even a Jan phone could work fine till june, so there's no way to be sure really. Try getting a late december or jan piece if possible.
