I think it is great, I got it but it needs more memory. I would have liked it more if it took memory cards! But overall it is fabulous!
Reviewer: Piper - Coventry, UK

There's a lot to like about this phone, however in my case sometimes when I put the phone down it switches itself off which is a real pain!

Reviewer: Dave - Singapore

Great value for money. Only two shortcomings, but these are quite acceptable if one takes the low cost into account.
- No expandable memory.
- Comparatively low Battery life.

I bought it just six months ago. This phone s a quiet beauty & handsome for posses. Features & facilities are better when compared with other in peer groups. The drawback s not having extendable memory. This model s not well known by our people. Do make it known by all.

I have this phone just last March & the phone is amazing. Very nice to use but it lacks memory.
Reviewer: Ricky - Stourbridge, UK
Date: 20th Apr 2007
I think that this is a good mobile but lacks a memory card slot so that you can had more songs & pictures but still what can you expect for £55.

I have had this phone for a year & I have decided to change. Not that there is anything wrong with it. I had a replacement after about 6 months because my first K608i's joystick became stuffed, but it was just a dud because my second (& present) K608i has an outstanding joystick.
This phone is great. Only lacks one major thing, expandable memory, which is almost compulsory in today's society.
Overall: Well done Sony Ericsson (again): 99%
Reviewer: Arpit Metaliya - Ahmedabad, India

If there was a memory expandable slot on this mobile, then it would get 100% in each (Design, Features, Usability).
Reviewer: Lim Chong Tat - Penang, Malaysia
Date: 26th Jul 2006
This phone is great, full of practical features. Far more handy than most of Nokia 3G phones. The only setback is the lacking of memory card slot.
Reviewer: Jack - Manchester, UK
Date: 22nd May 2006
I have just got the phone & it is very easy to use & has loads of features like Bluetooth, camera etc... This phone is great value for money. I only paid £100 on O2 for this phone, which I think is good!!!
Reviewer: Tom - Chelsea, UK

Enjoying my K608i as the functions are so easy, easy, easy to use. Good design & the menu layout is easy. V good screen & the graphics are unbelievably clear & colourful. V good camera, video functions, music player, 3G & Internet are speedy. I would like a memory upgrade or an expandable memory option but I just download when I am running short of memory.
Reviewer: Simon - UK
Date: 10th Apr 2006
Not enough memory on the K608i for such a heavily featured phone. The nav button is too touch sensitive & goes all over the place apart from the place I want it to go. Battery life is poor which is my major gripe & worry when I get a new phone.
Reviewer: Glen Paxton - Bath, UK
Date: 2nd Apr 2006
This phone came recommended to be by a close friend who is into his gadgets & mobile phones are his thing. I was concerned that I would be buying an over priced phone with too many feature for me to get my head around by I am very surprised. The Sony Ericsson K608i is amazing as it comes with all the latest technology but it is all so easy to work. I am getting very into all the messaging, emailing, video recording, video calling, surfing the Web, downloading music & video streaming. I would recommend that everybody has a FM Radio on their phone as it is a great function that I thought was a gimmick, but I use it all of the time. Even had a go at making my own ring tone with the Sony Ericsson Music DJ function & it is all good harmless fun. If you are techno phobic then this is an easy way to get yourself into all the latest technology.
Reviewer: Issy - Windsor, UK

Small & comfortable phone to use & the features are super. I am a loving the reliability of this phone which is a pleasant change from my last phone. The menus & navigation is super cool. Media & MP3 player is the best feature. I love this phone.
