Sony Ericsson DSS-25
by January
Sony Ericsson DSS-25 is one of the best gadgets I've ever come across for convenience and practicality and can be bought on Amazon for the small price of £3.95 and for this the little gadget connects your mobile phone to your computer.
This is a small plastic holder that you pop your phone into whilst it's connected to your ... computer via the USB lead that comes with it. Then the magic begins as you can then charge your phone whilst it's connected to your computer. Not only this but you can file share and load photio's from your phone to your desktop as well as download music and use the phone files on your computer. I can add a note to my calender on my phone whilst at a meeting and add it on to the calender in my computer files to remind me later when I am doing work on my computer, as well as using it to add games and other data to my phone.
This is easy to connect and use as it's a plug and play item and is cpmpatable with -:
Ericsson T68, Sony Ericsson T68i, Sony Ericsson T300, Sony Ericsson T200, Sony Ericsson P800, Sony Ericsson T310, Sony Ericsson T610, Sony Ericsson T230, Sony Ericsson Z600, Sony Ericsson P900, Sony Ericsson Z1010, Sony Ericsson T630, Sony Ericsson S700, Sony Ericsson K700 so is it suitable for most types of Sony Ericson phones.
It comes in silver or black and sits on your desktop as it is only a small circle which your phone sits into the top of and attaches where your phone charger goes in.
I like the convenience of this gadget as when I come home from work and still have to do work on the computer. I can upload notes that I have saved on my phone to my computer as well as having the mobile there handy incase I get a call.
I can also charge the mobile up whilst it's connected to the computer as I used to forget to charge it until it beeped at me when it was running out of battery life. I find that it is full charged all the time now as I just plug it in when I get home and am on my computer.
For something so simple it is a cheap to buy and a useful gadget and I would be happy to recommend it to you.
Although it looks flimspy I have dropped it a couple of times and it has stood the knocks. It's a simple piece of plastic that has a great use. Read the complete review |

Sony Ericsson ISP-20

One of the past mobile phones I have owned is the Sony Ericsson P900, and as they have a very fidly touch screen. Fortunately my phone was supplied with a stylus to allow me to navigate my way around the phone, unfortunately for me i soon lost it. Luckily, Sony Ericsson sell a pack of three stylus' and at just a couple of pounds they are ... quite cheap to pick up.
Originally when I owned the P900 the stylus' cos around the £15 mark for the 3 pack, but now the P900 is a discontinued phone they are very cheap to pick up. They can be conveniently placed at the back of your phone and allow for a much easier use of the mobile phone. Although I no longer have the packaging, I believe them to be plastic. The main shaft of the stylus is silver, with a grey tip and the top end is also grey. The top end is shaped for easy removal from the back of the mobile phone.
There isn't a great deal to say about the stylus, as it just does a simple job, but they are well made and at the price they are now they are certainly worth buying for use with touchscreen mobile phones. I suppose you could use them with the iphone as to prevent fingerprints accumulating on the screen. A worthwhile purchase. Read the complete review |

Sony Ericsson ISP-80

In a world of already saturated markets, there comes a mass market ploy of selling various different types of stylus to go with various different types of touchscreen phone. Anyone owning a Nintendo DS may be quite familiar with the functions of a stylus compared with using your fingers on a touchscreen, and I am familiar with this only ... through having difficulties with my latest phone.
It took me a good few months to realise that my phone already came with a stylus, and by this point I had acquired a set of Sony Ericsson (SE) styluses (if that is, indeed, the plural!). Technically, these are designed to go with particular SE phones, but ultimately, if you have a touchscreen phone, they will work just as well.
These ones in particular come in a pack of three, and at near enough the £15 mark in terms of price, you'd need them to be good. It's amazing how expensive they roll in at, but then something is only worth as much as someone is prepared to pay for it, so the saying goes, and this one is a decent performer on the market, particularly as an individual stylus can cost around the £10 mark depending on where you get and which one takes your fancy.
In terms of functioning, this stylus nestles very nicely in your hand. It has a bit of a hook on the base of it, designed so that if you are indeed using it for an SE phone, it can slot in and then you use this hook to get it out again. Be careful when getting your phone, as some SE phones will have the hole, but not the stylus itself.
Using it, it feels just like holding a small, thin pen or pencil, but it feels rather appropriate given the size of the screen you're using it on. The tip is narrow enough to be very accurate on screen, and I suppose this is the main point of function, when it comes to giving it a thumbs up or down. I find the accuracy very good indeed, and have never had a problem. Also, the shaft of the stylus tapers towards the nib, which means you don't have to peer round your own hand to make sure you're being accurate or not. I know that some stylus designs, including that for the DS, are thicker towards the nib, and this occasionally means I'm not tapping where I thought I was.
However, it's not too hard either, which allays fears of screen damage with over zealous tapping. There seems to be a good balance between sensitivity and durability with this model of stylus, and that, combined with the fact that it has good accuracy when tapping, means that I'd happily recommend it. Of course, if you are buying it for another phone and not an SE phone, you may encounter storage issues that outweigh the justification of the cost in the first place, but the trick is to first choose a phone that already comes with a stylus, then to look after it (when you find it!) and not lose it. This prevents having to buy these in the first place.
If you do find yourself needing to buy one, then you can do worse than this stylus. I recommend this pack of three, especially if you're prone to losing yours. It works very well, feels good in your hand, and is reliable. It may be costly, but the market for these is just so. Recommended. Read the complete review |
