Sony Ericsson S500i review from Sweden

"Nice phone to use, but poor build quality"

What things have gone wrong with the mobile phone?

All of the keys on the keypad are cracked vertically in the middle. They are made of very thin plastic.

General comments?

Good slider phone, overall, and it's nice and small.

No 3G, but mobile Internet works great, and it has Java support, meaning Opera and Gmail applications work.

The gold/green colour is cool, and the display is really excellent.

Poor build quality.
