Sony's latest addtion to the T series is the flip phone better known as the T707. This phones definetly gets full marks for design & style & I can see the ladies loving to carry it around in their handbags but behind the glossy exterior, what's the phone actually like?

Well unfortunatley that's the best bit of it, the phone itself is a fairly standard addition to the Sony Ericsson range. The display doesn't actually look as sharp as similar devices which are out there. Also the camera by today's standards is a fairly average 3.2 megapixels. It offers the standard functionality we have come to expect from mobile phones but nothing really that makes it stand out from the crowed.

On the positive side though, the phone does offer 3G capabilities allowing you to surf the internet at a higher speed and is also fairly lightweight. This is definetly one for those of you who are more concerned about what a phone looks like rather than what it does. It's available in red, black and blue, all of which have a gloss finish.

Overall I think compared to the competition, you'll find many handsets out there which maybe don't look as nice but offer much more functionality. I guess it's a trade off on what you consider to be more important.
