General Comments
I purchased the Sony Ericsson Z520i about a month ago. It's a good little mobile phone, and it was a nice change from my previous Sony Ericsson K500i.
It's a looker! Lovely white keypad, and cute little blue lights make this phone unique.
The phone has some good features; bluetooth, infrared both of which I have used to share music/pictures between phones and my PC.
The camera isn't bad, and the quality of the pictures when loaded on to my computer is pretty good!
Since I purchased it, the phone has frozen up on numerous occasions; once the screen froze up as the alarm was supposed to go off making me late for work, and sometimes I've opened it and the screen goes totally white. It hasn't happened lately.
I charged it for the recommended 12 hours when I first used it, but still find the battery life quite poor. I do think the memory could have been bigger; for those who love their real tones you will probably only be able to store about 3 or 4.
All in all, this phone is OK. The design of it would be the main selling point. For its features, it would have been sensible for Sony to make the memory bigger!
On average, people found this review very helpful
