I received this phone as a Christmas present. It is a lovely looking phone, very easy to use, has all the features I require. The screen on the top is very useful as you do not have to open the phone to see who a message is from.

Top marks from me.

I got this phone for my birthday. It's a really nice phone feels nice to use. Buttons take a little getting used to but when your used to them there fine. It's pretty much same as all Sony phones to use so it's really easy to use.
