Ericsson T28

I bought a reconditioned phone recently. For novelty value its great. It looks fab even today. For making and recieving calls its ok, but texting is a nightmare. It only stores 5 texts at a time, and they are automatically deleted after a few days. Overall it is very slow. Writing a text takes forever. There is no predictive texting so you have to (slowly) punch out each character.

I'm sure for the day it was a good phone, but for everyday use now it simply doesnt do it for me.

It was what you wanted in 99, microtech the smaller the better was the trend at the time, mp3/4 didn't exist or digital camera's wifi etc etc. I loved it and still have one, it makes people ask about it now !

the best i have ever had, although i have had it for some years now. but my heart is still attached to it.

The Sony Ericsson T28 is a very small light phone. Not fast for texting but very convenient to carry in pocket.

I have an Ericsson T28 for 4 years. During this period 5 time the phone spontaneously turned off and wouldn't turn on again. Had it replaced by warranty. Bottom line, it is very unreliable.

In addition the menu is bad designed, navigaition is unconvenient and takes a long time.

I really liked this phone, mostly for its size. If you're looking for a phone that is convienent to carry around this one should top the list. While reception here in the US, can be a little lacking at times. Reception while traveling in Europe is usually good. This phone is an older disc model, even the T39 I believe has been discontinued here in the US. The T39 is the newer model with features like bluetooth & built in infrared port.

I rated the screen quality low, due to the newer phones with color screens. As for me, I am quite happy with it. It has most of the features I find most important, though my next phone has to have bluetooth. This allows the phone to automatically go hands free w/cars that have this feature built in.

I think this is an alright phone if you want a phone for wear and tear and another model for style and practicality.

There are a lot of bugs and error messages and the phone loses signal all of the time.

I am comparing it with Nokia so I'm probably a bit harsh with my review but after using Nokia's excellent features I have gone back to them.

I would not recommend this as a phone to buy if you want an easy phone to use and if the coverage in your area is not good.

This Sony Ericsson T28 / T28s is a great mobile phone. I dont know how anyone can say this is rubbish. Its a bit dated now but phones today are getting bigger and bigger and this is so small. Its not tiny, but the slimline design makes it feel much smaller. The menus are fast, it gets great signal and the flip is soo cool!

The Ericsson T28 has been a very reliable phone to me, why everyone thinks theyre unreliable I don't know why, the T28 is still one of the slimmest phones on the market, however I think the big protruding antenna makes it look a bit odd but other than that it is a great phone

"NO NETWORK" or "SOS calls only" are the most frequent text likely to seen on the Ericsson T28 / T28s's screen. If you go anywhere except the open street. ie) Car Parks, superstores, shopping malls, museums, offices, cimemas you'll often get "SOS Calls Only" - while eveyone else using their cheap PAYG phones are enjoying talking freely with full recpetion! An important issue to consider when you get a 'mobile'phone
