I usually love sony erricson phones and really rate them and their ability to be a user friendly phone, however i have experienced a few issues with this phone and I am glad of this opportunity to share with everyone. whilst the phone has great applications, such as text, internet and good a good quality camera, this phone's key pad on serveral occasions has cracked.

I am sorry to have to go against the 4 star rating this phone has recieved and tell you of my experiences with this phone. I got this phone about a year and a half ago, and thought it looked great! i loved the lights and the mp3 player and the whole style of the phone. But thats about as far as it got I'm afraid. Within 2 months the phone started acting up. It wouldn't turn on without removing and replacing the battery, even then it would say ''inactive''. This meant my phone would switch off in my pocket without me knowing, so i would miss importnt phone calls. Then the slide of the phone came really loose, even though i had ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Sony Ericsson W580i: Good looking slide design walkman (183 words)
by - written on 25/10/09 (9 readings)
Rating:

This is a cool-looking slide phone with funky lighting effects, that can be altered to suit your mood. It's not the greatest Walkman phone ever (with limited memory capacity), unless a memory card is purchased (which is what I did, allowing me to keep more music and photos) and doesn't have an exceptional camera (only 2MP) , but it's a good all-rounder and is one of the best lookers. However, this isn't the most durable of phones. I have had it taken back to the manufacturer twice now both for different things. The first time was for the keys cracking within 6 months of having it. Fortunately they were just replaced although this was annoying. Secondly the camera on the ...  Read the complete review

I absolutely adored this phone when I bought it about a year and a half ago. I bought it mostly for the walkman feature and the fact that you could shake the phone and it shuffled the songs. However, the quality deteriorated extremely quickly and the shake response stopped working. I had a lot of trouble with the keys cracking and falling off. After going into phones for you they explained that this was a manufacturing fault and they sent the phone to sony erricson to fix. My phone was returned within 2 weeks with a new keypad. This then happened again twice. I eventually got sick and bought a new phone. The camera was okay but not great. The sound was quite good. The ...  Read the complete review

I Bought this phone when it first came out on contract and to begin with absoulutly loved it. It had such great features such as 'shake control' which is where with a flick of your wrist you can change the song. But after a couple of months i had constomer services in speed dial i was ringing them that much. First my bottoms split one by one. Then when making or receiving i call i coudnt hear them but they could hear me. I then sent in back to be repaired (which i have to say sony erricson are very good with and have a great customer service team) and when i got it back was working fine but then after another couple of months it wouldnt let me play songs or have a ring ...  Read the complete review
