I have had the Sony S700i now for 5 months. I have just read some of the reviews on this page and can't believe what I am reading. People with many, many problems? I have had not problems with this phone. I took the phone to Glastonbury as the battery lasted 6 days. I must charge my phone say once a week, obviously more I am on the phone for long periods of time. I use my phone for work, so make numbers of calls on it. On the camera front, I have taken some fantastic pictures on it (and that's coming from someone who has a 6MP camera, which she uses for professional pictures). I have never needed to send the phone back for repairs, and is still in very good condition. The only thing that I would point out is that not all MP3's work as ring tones, so watch out for that one.
Overall this phone is very good.

    I think the problems that people have had with this phone are handsets that have been locked to a particular network and have lots of network branding (namely Vodafone).

    I know because I had one myself and it went back two days later. You think that you are getting a great deal with a free handset, but you get it and find that the network have added lots of their own stuff, and disabled many functions that would have been there if got straight from the factory. Namely being able to use MP3 files as ringtones. This facility was disabled on the Vodafone versions, to get people to buy their ringtones from Vodafone Live. Bloody rip-off. However now there seems to be quite a few reasonably priced sim free handsets on ebay I may very well buy one and keep it as a spare handset to my Nokia 6230i
