CNET Asia Review

Good

The good: Solid construction and chic design; handset offers a good balance of business and fun.

The bad: Top buttons sometimes stopped responding when phone was opened quickly; phone not optimized for the Web and music features it offers.

The bottom line: The Z550i is a chic but sensible lower-end phone that does the basics well and adds a sprinkling of extras. We'd rate it higher if not for a significant text-related performance problem.

Cool phone

Oct 16, 2008

Rating: 7 out of 10 (Very good)
Pros: Great sound, good reception, memory expandable t 1 GB
Cons: camera, keypad
Opinion:
I only use this as a walkman phone, sound is good with the headset included in the package. So far i have not encountered any problems, had it for 4 years now. only thing is its hard to text with its flat keypad. Camera is not that great but takes decent pictures.

Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Good screen,Good music and U can personalise it with sony website
Cons: ringtone volume and battery performance
Opinion:
If u need a good walkman quality music and some photos then this is excellent for u. But If you need a edge then its not for u. The low ringing tone is the only problem I seem could be bettered by sony, but u cannot get a perfect phone on every account.
