Sony Ericsson T610 – first impressions

1smaller.jpg Aight then–so i’ve had my Sony Ericsson T610 for a total of 5 days, so it’s time for some first impressions. My previous phone was a Sanyo SCP-4700 with Sprint; my service is via T-mobile.

the Phone

It’s by far the smallest phone i’ve had, my very first was decent, a nextel Motorola i1000, then my second was the brick–the Motorola i500. it’s nice to finally graduate to small phone mode. I’m hopefully old enough now that i won’t just lose this mug. Fits very well in my pocket. it looks classy, but definitely takes some getting used to as far as taking calls with the handset. it feels as if i shouldn’t be able to talk properly into it ‘cos it’s so tiny, and i can hear myself in the earpiece, in a tin-can sorta way. The phone came with a headset, and this is my first time to actually fully embrace them. the phone feels better just sitting in my hand, while i use the earpiece (which i wish fit more snugly in my ear). depending on price, i may look at getting another earpiece (perhaps a bluetooth one). The screen is Very Large for the size of the phone! the screen is bright and very readable, except I have problems reading it outside in normal sunlight. The colours are crisp, and the theme i created for the thing looks better on the phone than when i created it!

Next: features.

    first off congratulations!

    second off--AT&T; i think either will be, or already offer the T616, which is the US specific version of the T610. i highly recommend this phone.

    I love headsets... Once you start using them you don't want to stop. Unfortunately I lost mine :_( So I haven't been using my phone as much.

    I think it's time for an upgrade anyway. My little Nokia 8210 has seen better days. Been good to me though, I feel bad to part ways. Time change and so must cell phones right?

    Guess I gotta go see what AT&T; has to offer for new phones.
