Advantages: price,size,ease of use

Disadvantages: no video camera,small screen

I bought this phone for £19.55,plus the now obligatory £10 call time, from Carphone Warehouse and it is an absolute bargain.
I have had Sony phones before but this one is the best.
It is small and fits perfectly in your pocket.
very light,you forget its there!
It took me a while to get used to the small buttons,especially when texting,but not a problem now as got used to it.
Sony phones have good menus which give straightforward access to all the phones features.
The phone has a nice central shortcut navigational button giving quick access to features like camera.
Phone has an fm radio and comes with a nice set of headphones for music on the go.
The volume is good on this phone and a good choice of ringtones and alarm tones also.
Have noticed that the battery lasts for ages when fully charged so pleased with that.
A feature i like is that the phone has an alarm that can be set to go off at the same time all week so very handy for getting you out of bed in the morning for work.
The camera has a small screen so not so good for photos or for viewing them but good clear quality at 1m pixel and a 2x zoom,although not as good as most new phones.
Comes with easy to read instructions too.
This is a perfect phone if you just want a phone for texting and calling and just taking a few photos.
All in all a nice phone for the price,well pleased with it.
