This is the first Sony Ericsson brand mobile phone which with built in 3.2 Megapixel Digital Camera. It is also one of the Sony Ericsson phone with the Sony CyberShot Technology. I have used this phone for about a week, its high quality display, 16x digital zoom, with the auto-focus and Xenon flash (The flash that usually built-in to Digital Cameras), with the BestPic function, the pictures taken almost as good as a low-end digital camera, video quality also clear, with FM Radio, music player, video playback, video editor, I should have no complaint for this!
The most amazing thing in this phone is the 3G support, 3G is the latest GSM Technology and has been widely used by many major countries in Europe and Asia, like in South Korea, you must have a 3G mobile phone in order to use there. Video Call function may let you have a new feel contacting the world! In Addition to the 3.2 Megapixel digital camera, it has a VGA camera built-in just on the front side, you can use this camera for video conference. Can you imagine what is you feel if you talking face-to-face each other, even both of you has thousands of miles of distance?
Only thing I feel disappointed is the 3G technology in the US has not yet been completely and widely used, the only company that has 3G, Cingular, only provides Cingular Video to allow contract customers to pay appropiate monthly fees to watch TV programs, like HBO, CNN, etc. The 3G coverage is very spotty, too. Only a few metropolitan cities have 3G network coverage at this time, of course, the video call function may not be used in the short future.
This is still a best camera phone I never seen even though some function like video call cannot be used in the country. If you like take best picture, but don't want to buy an digital camera, this phone is absoulutely your choice!
