I bought this phone in Feb 2008 and had to have it repaired 4 times by the Sony Ericcson repair centre due to cracking keys. I was told once that versions of this phone made after week 40 would not have the keys cracking problem, however mine did although being made in week 42. Sony Ericcson refused to do anything except continue to repair my phone until it could not be repaired anymore, and although I loved the phone and its features, I could not have purchased a worse phone. Thanks to play's return policy, I got a refund for this ridiculous phone.
Please be careful, the keys crack constantly and becomes very irritating.

I got this phone for christmas 2007, and i couldn't be happier with it. i originally wanted the other sony ericsson (the one that shacks) But i got this one instead and im so glad, i usually get really bored of my phone within a few months and want a new one but not with this one. yes the keys did crack, but i sent it back and within 2-3 days i had it back and havent had a problem with it since. its such a great phone and it looks really good to, i also like the fact that i have never seen any one else with the same phone as me, i feel unique. And since i have found out that the phone i originaly wanted plays up ALOT, and i no sooo many people with that phone.
i highly recommend this to everyone who considering buying it.

As soon as you get the box open the phone looks fantastic and mine has worked well over the year I have had it but now it is starting to freeze and switch itself off which does get annoying
