I bought this phone in 2009 for Rs 9500. Today, it is 7500. I will advice you to look for another phone at 7.5K. I bought this phone hoping it will have a good camera, being in the cyber shot series. It has been a big disappointment. I have pointed out the flaws of the camera below:
Zoom does not work in 3.2 mp mode, only in VGA mode
It is not able to take any photo at night or in darkness, photos appear blurred. The flash is useless.
Even in normal room light, the photos are of very bad quality
When you open the photos in pc, their quality will appear lower than you see in the phone lcd. Some of them wont even open in pc
Let me not talk about the video recording quality
Only time you will get good photos is at the beach on a bright sunny day. C510 makers - Any vga camera will also give that, I do not need a sony cybershot
Styling and ease of use is average. Bluetooth works well and the phone supports most of the file types.
Battery back up is not good. When it was new, it used to run 2-2.5 days. Now, little fellow needs spark on his back every 24 hours and if you talk too much then more earlier.
This phone is a delicate one and not meant for rough use. It fell down couple of times and memory card became loose. It wont read anything from the memory card. Your display and ringtone will change since the card wont be readable. It needs to be switched off and started again when this happens.
The good thing about this phone is the earphone. Surprisingly, it rolls out very good quality sound, even though this phone is not in the walkman series. I have heard walkman series also and believe me this phone is equal to them, not even a beat less. Another good part of the phone is the display. Very rich and pictures look amazing. Pictures and videos revolve automatically when you revolve the phone.
I havent surfed internet on this phone so no idea. It does not have Wi-fi. But I believe no phone had wi-fi at 9.5K at that time. All were starting from 13K-15K. Nobody should complain on this.
Sony - This cyber-shot product of yours is a waste. Better brand it under walkman series or scrap its production!
