Sony Ericsson K500i

Sony Ericsson Company made a well-beaten path in the middle segment-it introduced two new models that differentiated between each other only in design, menu arrangement, and in market accessibility. It is implied that the model with the F index is to...

The dimensions of the phone are typical for its class (102x45x21mm); the same is true about its weight (87grms). The phone fits the palm well. For the last models of Sony Ericsson, the decent ergonomics is characteristic and this model did not become...

Sony Ericsson K500i

Moving away from its T styles, Sony Ericsson's K500i brings a lot more curve and fun to the company's line of mobile phones.

Pleasing to the eyes ; Very cool user interface ; Stylish design

Camera lens cover can be a tad annoying ; Quirky joystick

K500i

You have probably read our K700i review posted lastweek. It is truly an amazing phone but its price is somewhat unreachable formost. For users who require basic phone functions with camera, the K500i wouldprobably be more suitable for a mass market in...

Sony Ericsson K500i

simple to use. good if you just want to use a phone without too many gadgets.

not a fan of the tiny joystick for menu options. not good for bigger fingers. also it doesnt have a reminder to alert you to text messages or voicemail so you have to keep checking to see if you have any messages.
