General Comments
Having wanted to buy a camera mobile phone basically for the camera, i purchased this Sony Ericsson T610, but then took it back the next day. the phone itself is excellent, with superb features, such as different camera photo styles, and a 'paint' type program. the phonelooks cool and is very light to hold, but the drawback here is the casing and screen scrath and smudge very easily. the sounds are good, but the range of ringtones is awful, you basically have to download them. However the camera quality for the price is simply horrendous. it doesnt pick up colours very well and there are fuzzy lines going across the screen, despite the differnt styles you can have. when wanting to view your photos the phone seems poorly organised, with a massive range of rubbish cartoons of square mice and cats that you cant delete.
in my opinion this phone would be top of the pile if only sony had taken their time to develop the camera and put on a quality one. if you, like me are looking for a phone with a good camera for whatever reason, that i would recommend you stay away. if you want a phone with excellent features, most probably as a "buisness" phone (i didnt try but am told the PC link up is superb), then consider this one.
