Review of Sony Ericsson Vivaz Pro U8i GSM/UMTS Phone
Mobile-review have posted a review of the Sony Ericsson Vivaz Pro U8i. Here is a video and their final impression.
The ringtone volume is medium and you can miss a call if the phone is in your pocket, especially in winter. The same can be said about the vibro, which is not powerful enough to be noticed at all times. These drawbacks are predetermined by the model's size. There was no space for a more powerful loudspeaker and better vibro. Unlike Vivaz, this model has a different location of the microphone and the interlocutor hears you worse, especially if you speak from the noisy street.
The dictaphone does not work during the call and the phone cannot be used without the SIM card.
Cost cutting on the memory card considerably spoils the impressions from the phone. If you want to view pictures and watch video properly and have no problems with the speed of operation you should get rid of the card from the box.
As the version of Vivaz this phone happens to be odd. Who will buy it? It has too many deficiencies for business users while glamorous ladies do not need a keypad. The segment of those who may get interested in Vivaz Pro is tiny, which is the main problem of the model. It was created not for a group of customers, but just to expand the product range. In July the market will see the release of Nokia C6 priced at €300 and Vivaz Pro for €400 will get lost. This SE device has a similar price with Nokia N97 Mini, which is an absolute madness. You have to be overconfident to position the phone on par with the flagship from the leading manufacturer. The verdict is straightforward – the phone will attract dust from the shelves not the customers. There are no other options.
