Summary: Poor reception
Review: Had this phone before switching to the Motorola V300. The reception on this one was extremely poor. Where my Moto shows 5 green bars now, the Ericsson would show a 2 or 3 amber bars. Initially, thought it was just T-Mobile coverage but that doesn't appear to be the case.

Summary: Are you looking for a problems???
Review: Why I decide to buy it?Connectivity (blotooth, IR), synchronization with outlook, built in camera... What I get. There is connectivity, but I cannot use it to synchronies outlook with phone calendar. I should go to Sony-Ericsson WAP site to synchronies my phone with my computer??? There is not Local synchronization option in this phone. I got built in camera, but I cannot see what picture I am making during the daylight. If I decide to take picture then I cannot check what picture I did. Home I can see just very, very bad pictures I got with this camera. Additionally, sometimes the phone answers the calls I am getting. Sometimes the phone dials somebody from my phonebook. Look like computer viruses attack it. Finaly batery last 3-4 days. It is not sufficint if you travel and don't like to take charger with you. Buying this phone I got just problems. Do not buy this phone or buy it if you need additional nervousness or problems.

Summary: Rate it as good tough with some quirks
Review: I have had this phone for 3 months now. Bought it on Amazon.com on Dec 29th 2003. Let me tell you a feature if you are planning to take a family plan using the amazon.com deal. You can still do it with T-Mobile. Buy 2 or 3 phones individually with 3 separate plans (cheapo 19.99 plan). As soon as you get it go to a T-Mobile store near your home/office and fill out a COR (Change of responsiblity) and pool it under one person in the family willing to accept the responsibility for the plan. The process takes about 2-3 days (or just 24hrs). Once you get the confirmation that the phones have been pooled under a family plan (give them your email address and tell them to notify you when it is complete) only then start using the phones. Note: Verify that all phones have been pooled before u start using them. Now send for your rebates for T-Mobile and Amazon. You will get both the rebates since you have a qualifying plan on both. (For Amazon rebate you have to wait for the first bill from TMobile) Let me list the pros first: Large LCD display. Like the faded clock display.
Bluetooth Cool and voice commands actually work (unlike my Motorola V66)
IR (haven't used it yet with laptop) However I have beamed my contacts to other IR enabled phones. SO way cool!!!
Calling Card feature is useful
Joystick for easy navigation.
Jabra bluetooth earpiece seems to work fine most of the time with this phone.
Can download different themes and ringtones
Can associate a picture/ringtone with every caller in your address book (this will eat up your memory fast) Cons:
If you are buying this phone for camera features forget it. It is just "also ran" feature.
I keep on getting "Update clock" randomly on this phone.
Jabra seems to lose connectivity randomly.
Keys take time getting used and stick if pressed at an angle. This locks up the phone.
Address book has too many key clicks.
Smudges easily. Battery life is OK but drains faster with bluetooth.
Cannot switch off increasing ring tone functionality (even though it says so) T-Mobile does not include a car charger with this phone so plan to buy it at amazon and save on shipping if you absolutely want to have it from day 1.

Summary: Just OK
Review: Pros
Small, very nice camera, voice calling feature, bluetooth capabilities. Cons
I have had ongoing problems synchronizing my phone with Outlook 2000. Screen is nearly impossible to see in sunlight. Bluetooth can be quirky, failing to connect sometimes. Phone occassionally "locks" requiring you to take out the battery to reset it.

Summary: two specimens, both defective...
Review: I'm on my second T610. On some incoming calls, it rings once and dies. Reboots, basically. When the power comes back on, I get a blue screen with an hourglass for 15-20 seconds. Sure hope THAT call wasn't important... The first phone had, forgive the hyperbole, wretchedly pathetic reception. At the time, this was compared to my wife's Samsung e105 (which arrived at the same time) and some of the performance was chalked up to the internal "antenna" of the T610. But when the replacement (above) came back from Sony Ericsson (hereafter, SE), it performed better than its predecessor. SE sent me a replacement because the first unit was unrepairable (their words). The "replacement" was actually someone else's phone, complete with a full address book and customized lock codes. That's right, I was locked out of my phone. More downtime. (Did I mention that they took FIVE WEEKS to send me someone else's phone in the first place? Couldn't even reset the damn thing for me. Just threw it in a box, apparently.) Based on two experiences with a Nokia 3390 as a loaner, as well as the aforementioned Samsung, I urge prospective customers to consider either make before SE. That is, as long as decent reception and audio quality are things you'd be interested in. The T610 does have several good points. Clean, elegant interface, both in hardware and onscreen. Small and light. Bright, crisp display. Many tasteful ringtones included by default. (Seemingly a minor point, but those on the e105 are downright offensive, and proof that most manufacturers are targeting children.) Bluetooth technology quite simply rocks, especially in the form of a wireless headset. If I had seen any of these demonstrated beforehand, I probably would have made the same mistake again anyway -- they're that compelling. But knowing what I know now, I would probably pony up actual funds for a Nokia 3650. Bigger, heavier, uglier, and a profoundly retarded interface... I would live with these shortcomings in exchange for the brand's better engineering and quality control. Now, to send my T610 back for a THIRD TIME...

Summary: The best phone I've ever had
Review: I'm not sure why that previous reviewer was having problems with his phone crashing. I've had mine for more than 6 months and it hasn't crashed once. In fact, I don't think I've turned it off in more than a month, let alone had to take the battery/SIM card out, so I would say it's solid as a rock. On the other hand the first Sony phone I had, a T68i, was pretty buggy and I did experience the occasional lockup. Eventually it died, I replaced it with another T68i I bought used on eBay, and that one worked perfectly and still does. I guess the lesson would be: if your phone acts up at all when you get it, replace it right away and you'll be fine. I would say, of the 6 mobile phones I've had so far, this one is by far the best. It has great features, but even better it's nice and small, thin, light, but with a nice big screen. It's style is unlike any other phone on the market, and I like to be different. I like the open-face design better than a clamshell, since it's thinner. I've also NEVER NEVER had a problem with scratches or screen damage. I keep this phone in my front pocket all day, but it's still in almost like new condition. I used to worry that my wallet or keys or change would damage the phone, but I don't worry anymore. I was also concerned at first that the buttons were too small, but I've never had a problem dialing. I'm not sure how they did it, but it's really hard to mis-dial this phone, and I have fat fingers! I get compliments all the time. "What kind of phone is that? Is that a camera? How cool! Can I see?" :)

Summary: You Could do Better
Review: The reason I say you could do better is that both Sony as a manufacturer and you as a consumer could do better. The phone doesn't get as good of reception as most Nokia or Motorola phones (on At&t or Tmobile) and protective cases are both needed to cover the easily scratched/smudged screen and virtually unavailable. Same with handsfree, other than the ill fitting piece that comes with it only a bluetooth set is available adding at least another $60 to your bill. Sony usually means superior quality, but my girlfriends Motorola V300 was free after rebate and I'm jealous of it's quality over mine.

Summary: Great phone
Review: Pros:
1. It has all the cool features such as Java,Bluetooth,Camera, Infra red, WAP Browser.
2. Light weight
3. It has auto key lock, so although it is not clam shell design pressing keys in your pocket is not an issue
4. I can download free MIDI from web to my laptop and upload via IR to the phone. Don't have to pay for ring tones.
5. You can upload animated gifs for screen saver.
6. It is 3 band GSM. Works all over the World. (where GSM is available.)
7. I can even transfer files from my pocket pc (infrared) to the phone.
8. Operationg system is skinable . I found nice free themes and installed them on the fly. Cons:
1. Camera is joke. Quality sucks. Forget about taking pictures in not so bright areas. Camera feature is not more than a cheap toy.
2. Bluetooth file transfer sometimes crashes the operating system. I had to remove the battery to reset the system.
3. It is complicated to use. Not for people who only want a simple phone. I wouldn't recommend this to my Grandma Conclusion:
If it breaks, I will buy the sameone again.

Summary: Great phone for those who like colors
Review: Pro: Featuring the best high resolution screen in its category, SE T610 is definitely the best phone for those who want to have something not-that-expensive-yet-high-quality in their pockets. Simple, well designed menu, easy to use buttons and a powerful Li-Poly battery. Pretty, fast games (Java + Mophun) Con: Not the easiest to get it to work or turn off, power button too well hidden. Freezes every once in a while, which is quite annoying. 5 minutes on the charger solves the problem, but who has 5 minutes while on the run?
