    Good Points: Easy set up, good battery life, had no problems at all.

    Bad Points: none

    General comments: I am looking for an update but having looked at all reasonably priced phones,less than £100, the only phone I can find is another Sony Erisson K800i which has far too many items on it than I require. Go back to making simple everyday phones loud enough to hear and better signal reception!. I think I will stick to the phone I have.

    The mobile is nice, easy and small, however the battery is very very very poor. There must be memory and more options

    Don't buy this model and watch other models of Sony Ericsson phones with joysticks you best bet is to buy a Sony Ericsson with out a joystick because their menu system is class and the options on their phones or cool.

    From the second day onwards I am facing problems in reception. In interiors the Sony Ericsson K700i phone has absolutely no reception and it can be used as an alarm or a device for setting reminders!!! I gave it for servicing but after-sales service was so poor that they couldn't fix the problem. It really pains when a phone worth so much starts giving trouble on the very next day after you purchase it. Please don't buy any Sony Ericsson models if your are in India, since their after-sales se ...

    It is a useful mobile phone, and it's the third generation Sony I have had. However, as it went past it 12 month life, it started to effectively fall apart. The battery discharges alarmingly quick. OK, I could get a new one. The power connector socket is broken, and I get an intermittent ring tone when someone calls - I have not figured this one, but it could flip into silent mode. When the Sony Ericsson K700i charges, without any amendment to settings, it beeps, which is fine if you can charge ...

    The Sony Ericsson K700i has a good quality camera and video, a great MP3 player, good games and it has loads of memory, so I have 12 songs on it with a bit of memory left. The screen is good, and it hasn't cracked. The features are excellent and the reception is great. I was in Wales high in the mountains and I still had a signal. The style is great, it looks good and it can fit in your pocket so easily because its small, and it has just enough weight on it so you know it is still there. Great v ...

    If my Sony Ericsson K700i phone worked properly, I'd love it, but for now, I'm afraid that I'm a bit disappointed. Many of my friends have this phone, and have warned me about the joystick and guess what? Mine has now broken as well! But overall, a great phone for the money.

    I would definitely recommend the Sony Ericsson K700i mobile phone. It is strong and reliable, and it has a loud MP3 player and radio. The reception is excellent. The camera is great, and the memory is also good. The battery life has been excellent for me. It does not come with a USB cable though, so you need to buy one. Overall, for £90 in The Link, I would definitely buy one, so I give this phone a well deserved 10 out of 10.

    Overall, the Sony Ericsson K700i is a good phone. It needs a longer battery life though, and a louder speaker, but it is Sony Ericsson at its best!

    The joystick on my Sony Ericsson K700i mobile phone doesn't work properly, and as time goes by it gets worse. I have spoken to a few other people who have the same phone, and they have the same problem! It also has poor battery life.

    I love the Sony Ericsson K700i mobile phone. I love the bluetooth. I love the MP3 player and everything. It has a neat little camera. Orange offer a great service as well. The joystick is a bit iffy, but then again, not every phone is perfect! Joints on flip phones get loose and break off. The Sony slides sometimes come off... See! I recommend this phone to anyone who wants a nice little phone.

    The Sony Ericsson K700i is a good mobile phone! It has lasted a long time. I usually break a phone after about 2 months, but this one has lasted nearly a year now, so this phone is ACE!!!

    The Sony Ericsson K700i mobile phone is great! It only cost me £80, and compared to other phones that I have paid £150+ for it is fab! It has everything on it you could ask for - radio, MP3 player, bluetooth, video, camera, infrared, internet, games, downloads, as well as the usual calender and calculator etc. All are excellent quality, and the screen is crystal clear. I am always tempted to replace this and buy a new more expensive pink phone, but when I think about it, they just ...

    My Sony Ericsson K700i was excellent to start with but after about six months the joystick stopped working properly and it has got worse since. I don't think I would have bought this phone again as it becomes frustrating trying to access things on the mobile.

    I am a heavy phone user. You will never catch me without my phone. I so not recommend the Sony Ericsson K700i mobile phone to anyone who uses their phone to the extent I do. Battery life is poor and only lasts one or two days. However, I have learnt to put it on charge every night. Pictures are blurry unless you stand extremely still. Memory is poor and unexpandable, but this may not effect you if you do not wish to use it as an MP3 player. Otherwise it seemed to be a reasonably good phone. I ...

    I have used the Sony Ericsson K700i mobile phone for about 9 months now. It is beginning to look a bit jaded (the phone, not me), but still functions generally OK. Battery life is a problem, but I use it a lot and carry a spare battery. I am beginning to find charging a problem too, as the contact on the phone does not always connect properly, and the wire needs to be wiggled to start charging. Being a little deaf I found the volume poor and could not turn it up to suit my hearing. However the B ...

    The MP3 player and radio on the Sony Ericsson K700i mobile phone are great! The sound is really good! Every single thing about this phone is brilliant!!! If you're looking to buy this phone, I would highly recommend it! I love it and can't put it down. The battery life is perfect. I'm on it all day, and I only need to charge it after about 3 days!

    The Sony Ericsson K700i mobile phone has many good points, but also a few bad points... *Good points:* Themes (downloadable) Pretty loud tones (make sure the MP3 you download is of good quality and loud already) Pretty large phone book memory A lot of useful phone profiles Alarm is very GOOD (wakes me up every morning). You can set MP3 files as alarm tones too Calendar To do list Notes (can be sent as text messages to another Sony Ericsson phone through bluetooth if you don't have ...
