phoneuser.'s review of Sony Ericsson T610

“Was relieved to see the phone was marked 03W23 and so...”

★★★★☆

written by phoneuser. on 27/07/2003

Good Points
-easy to use. Menu layout well designed and clear.
-Small, lightweight handset with more screen than keypad, unlike Nokia phones.
-Bluetooth connectivity with computer to exchange images, midi-files etc...
-Crazy golf!

Bad Points
-Screen resolution is slightly lower than on some phones hence camera image quality not brilliant. Its no substitute for a digital camera.
-Camera images are rather dark when taking pictures under artificial light.
-Had to buy bluetooth adapter for my PC to be able to connect with the phone. Bluetooth and infrared are the only methods of sending information between phone and computer.

General Comments
Was relieved to see the phone was marked 03W23 and so is hiss free.

Did not take long to get used to the menu layout and use all the numerous funtions the phone has to offer.

Bluetooth is a step forward but really the only way of communicating between phone and PC. If you have anything other than the latest PC you'll have to buy a bluetooth adapter.

The only disappointing aspect is the camera. The quality of images are slightly grainy and dark. Particularly under artificial light. Daylight photos are much better. There is also a slight half-second delay from pressing the capture button to the actual photo being taken.

At the end of the day though, its a phone and as a phone, the quality is very good. I would recommend it.



I bought this phone from dial-a-phone who promised to include all accessories free. They sent me a letter saying they had run out of accessories and would send them within 28 days. They have seven days left.

Hi, umm i was just wondering exactly what you meant by 03W23, is it some kind of mark on the box that says the phone has been updated so the hissing problem no longer exists??

Aimee,
<br>The T610 suffered from a hissing problem while making calls when it was first released. The 03W23 marking tells you when the phone was assembled. i.e. week 23 of 2003. The problem was rectified after about week 20 of 2003. I bought my phone a couple of months ago now so I don't think it should be an issue now.
<br>
<br>Another update,
<br>I did finally received the free items as promised from Dial-a-Phone. Later than promised but at least they arrived. I guess the phone is in great demand.
