Sony Ericsson S500i
Explain star rating

$199.00Price range

What's Hot
Price, ease of use, excellent display, light effect feature, A2DP Bluetooth
What's Not
Questionable design of controls and keypad, no 3G, proprietary headphone jack
The Final Word
At this price the S500i is reasonable value, but it doesn’t boast any outstanding features. Its design should appeal, but the keypad and controls may pose some problems.
