Sony Ericsson Equinox correction

It is the most complete non-smartphone. It has all the features like 3.2 megapixel camera, FM radio, MP3, video streaming and web browsing with 3G speed. The only features the phone doesn't are the software application like MS word, Excel and other software application. It is almost like the Iphone , T-Mobile Dash or the G1. The reception is great. The phone's software is great improvement probably due it has more memory 175mb I believe than SE TM 506. It freezes less and doesn't restart on its own like the SE TM 506. The best phone I ever had. Replaces my SE TM 506 which has software program like crashing, restarting on its own and laging.





Have great features. Most complete non-smartphone.
No qwerty keyboard. Doesn't have MS software programs like Word and Excel.

Love my S.E. Equinox!

9 Nov 2009 celluvr

9.3 out of 10

After a bad experience with the Samsung T-659 (which I returned), I bought the Sony Ericsson Equinox.  For it's price, it's packed with features!  The set-up was a snap...was able to load my contacts and calendar appt's in no time.  Love the feature of when you add a B-Day in your contacts, it automatically places them in your calendar!  My Moto RIZR & the last Samsung I had didn't do that!  Like the various app's available, such as the Facebook app, TeleNav, You Tube, etc.  It allows me to get HTML e-mail with my AOL account...and the predictive text for texting works great!  If you manually have to spell something, a little window pop's up as your hitting the key to show you how many hits you have to make to get the correct letter or number...makes texting very easy.  Love the FM radio...that works great!  The browser is very fast, aided by 3G speeds.  Web pages loaded fairly rapidly.  The audio quality is fantastic!  Voices sound very clear with a great range of lows/highs.  No problems with signal strength as well...haven't dropped a call yet!  The phone is light and thin...fit's in my pocket.  Haven't had a chance to use the camera much yet, but from what I've seen so far, it takes great pics!  Again, for the price it has a lot to offer.  Sure this will be a keeper for me!



To answer the previous posters questions, the 2 squares/boxes above or right next to the camera icon is your "shortcuts" key or button.  It gives you shortcuts to thing you use the most...such as camera, bluetooth, etc.  You can also add new shortcuts down at the bottom of the list.  I added texting and e-mail shortcuts.  You can also program the right-click of the circular mouse.  I put my calendar shortcut there.  The @ sign below the #1 key is a shortcut to punctuation you might use while texting or e-mailing.  It'll bring up the symbols you might use the most.  Hope this helps!





Thin/light design. Good audio quality. Great signal strength. Fast web/3G. E-mail, Facebook, TeleNav, FM Radio, You Tube, etc. Basically a lot of "bang for the buck".
Wish it had a full or partial qwerty...otherwise it would be perfect!
