The Stylish But Not Jazzy Cousin

Since Sony Ericsson is currently spoon family (including youth-focused, party W300i happy and achingly fresh Z610i), we label the Sony Ericsson Z550i the stylish but not jazzy cousin. The design is more practical than the Walkman brand or mirror-surfaced models, with a brushed metal casing and black accents contribute to the overall look sedate. The sony ericsson z550i faceplate is having the dimensions of 45 x 20 x 88mm and it weights about 93 grams which means quite light weight.

The opening of the spoon reveals equally sedate keyboard with comfortably spaced plastic buttons and a round metal navigation button that crowns the number keys. Send and End keys is elegant also having brushed metal, flank the circular. The 176 x 220 pixel main screen looked to be doing justice to all its 262000 colors, and spent the sunlight visibility test.

The external LCD is unusual in its form and placement - rather than being a mini version of the internal display, the Sony Ericsson z550i is the screen vertically oriented, and 128 x 36 pixels, more than a strip. Call lost and new notifications message alerts scroll across the screen in purple, along with the name of the person in touch with you (or a number if not occupy a space in your phonebook).

Sony Ericsson has taken a bet each way with the Z550i, offering a sprinkling of business along with the basic characteristics of lifestyle and entertainment offerings. For the corporate mentality, push e-mail gets a lookout, as well as synchronize calendar and conditions HTML browser. When you are sick of all the work material, can take pictures with 1.3 mega pixel camera, play and listen to music through the media player. The problem is that the phone is not really optimized for the features it offers - for example, you need to buy a memory card to store more than a handful of songs, and the screen is too small for anything more than a cursory glance at Web.

Reflected in the relatively low price is the lack of cell phone accessories - as mentioned before, there may be a memory expansion slot, but you will not find a Memory Stick Micro in the box. There is no data cable to transfer files to a PC via USB. The scarcity of data cable will not be a tragedy for Bluetooth-enabled users, but fans of great wadsada data transfer between phone and PC - or MP3 files stored on your phone - will not be satisfied with 25MB of an onboard memory. There is a great range of sony ericsson z550i games available on the net.

Sony Ericsson has come to win some phones in recent times and, in general, the Sony Ericsson z550i unlock code is no exception. It shares the same design menus, navigation buttons and construction firm that won a positive response in previous models.

We have a major problem of performance to report, however. If the phone was whipped open as soon as a message has been received, the top of the keyboard that was not done, and we had to reboot. If you like having frantic text meetings (we will not ask any questions), this is something that must be wary of. You have to take a deep breath, calm down and wait a moment before opening the spoon to read the message on hold.

If you are behind an elegant yet unassuming phone that can handle the basics well, the cheap sony ericsson z550i should make happy. There is a phone that you want to use to organize their lives - the M600i is more oriented towards this - and it would be impractical to make intensive use of its activities and multimedia functions, but if you’re main objective is to be continued, the z550i worth a glance.
