Good Points

Reception is very good even at low coverage areas, Good Standby and talk time, Big phone book with multiple entries, Nice sounding polyphonic ring tones etc.


Bad Points

It hangs (freeze) on the network, Ring tone is not loud enough for noisy environments, Alarm does not sound when the phone is turned off. This phone does not have voice dailing or any infared port.


General Comments

I had a facination on Sony J70 and I purchased three J70s, you know why? because all of them used to freeze or hang. Thats because the GSM 900 chips were faulty, I wonder howcome all three had the same problem. Any ways I changed the chip on my last J70 and after that it never hanged. This phone has a great reception quality, in some low coverage areas where Nokia and Panasonic were searching for network, Sony was showing a single bar with the same network. Its polyphonic ring tones are nice to hear though it can't be heard in noisy environment. Its alarm does not work when the phone is turned off its quite ackward comparing with other phones. last word whoever having freezeing problem with your J70 please change your GSM 900 chip or GSM 1800 chip. Other wise this phone is a nice one with lot of options.
