Sony Ericsson Z750i Review

Phone rating:

In a nutshell: The Z750i is a compact clamshell 3G phone equipped with video calling, a 2 megapixel camera, stereo music player and a memory card slot for storing music. A hidden mirror effect and a glossy finish (in pink, purple or silver) makes for a very attractive look.
Best buy: *Free* from Three (Purple) or Three (Silver); or £99.99 on PAYG from Three (Purple) or Three (Silver).

The Sony Ericsson Z750i is an updated version of the Z610i. It's a compact 3G clamshell phone with a glossy finish, available in a choice of pink, purple and silver. A hidden mirror effect conceals the external display, which becomes visible only when the display lights up. The display shows basic information such as the time and caller details. There is also a camera lens mounted on the front cover. Open up the clamshell and inside the phone retains its glossy good looks. The keypad is dainty but practical, and is suitable for rapid texting once you get used to it.

The main improvements in the Z750i compared with the Z610i are the addition of HSDPA for fast 3G downloads, an improved internal display with a high resolution of 240 x 320 pixels and an increase in the amount of internal memory to 32 Mbytes.

This is an entry-level 3G phone, and for its price it includes everything you would expect: a camera, a music player, a good internal display, a memory stick slot and Bluetooth. It's a shame that the camera doesn't have a flash, but it does have good looks to compensate for this.

This fone must be the best kept secret as its hardly pushed. For the money, it is one of the best, feature -packed fones on the market. 2.2 screen, loads of features - task list, memo pad, calendars, timers, stopwatch, fast internet, e-mail, video calling, voice recorder, MP3 player, video recording, reasonable size keys to enable fast texting, clear screen, and a front screen giving time and whose calling info. I've tried a number of fones and far more expensive ones but for me, this is the tops and it will have to be something really brilliant to make me move away from this phone. OK, the camera is average - not outstanding but hey! if you want top class fotos, get a camera!! Must be one of the best fones around.
