Thumbs down

I sold one a while ago. Not being funny but they aren't all that. They look ok but that's as far as they go. The menu system is annoying and the aerial (integrated) is poor at best. The battery life also sucks. Recharge every 1 - 2 days with hardly any calls.

Go for a Sony Ericcson T610 or the new T630 due out.

I've got one and have to agree, i was about to post it off to be repaired under warantee(?) as it keeps loosing signal, but not sure if it is just a trait of the phone now. Don't want to have to pay the £17 (standard charge) when they say nothin is wrong with it!

I had the S35. The aerial is out to see and the signal was 'OK'.

Got an S45 with the concealed aerial and the signal was the pits.

SL55 sadly was the same thing. Very intermittent.

T610 with concealed aerial has never failed me. Even works on the first level down in a tube.

Doesn't work in Cinema 7 at the Shepard's Bush complex though.
