Review of GSM/UMTS-handset Sony Ericsson Z770i

Mobile-review have posted their review of the Sony Ericsson Z770. Here is the final impression.

Impressions
The Z770i’s ring tones volume was never an issue – its speaker fared well in most environments. The reception quality was nothing to complain about either. Our only gripe is with the phone’s vibro alert, which occasionally proves to be on the weak side.

The handset is set to debut this April around the 480-550 USD price point (300 Euro in Europe) – for this money the user gets an interesting design, all standard features of A200 with a couple of minor fresh touches. It is not the most decent price/quality ratio we have seen – its design certainly adds some weight to the price tag. I suppose the looks are the Sony Ericsson Z770i’s major trump, some will definitely like it.

As far its rivals go, the Z770i will find its main competition in the Nokia 6600 that sports exactly the same specs and will arrive in May (while its announcement is scheduled for April). It is also notable for its fashion-savvy design and exactly the same price tag (300 Euro).
