Sony Ericsson V630i ReviewRating:
Date: 17/11/2006
The Sony Ericsson V630i is an excellent value for money mid-range 3G camera phone. It is small and slim weighing 91g. The sleek black finish is highlighted with retro orange to pick out direct keys.
It has a large TFT display supporting 262k colours and a resolution of 176 x 220 pixels. A TFT display means that the screen is light, clear and viewable, even in bright sunshine.
It has an excellent 2 megapixel cameral with digital zoom and video recording capabilities. It can also take pictures in night mode using the flash light.
The phone has an easy to use music and media player. As well as the 10 MB of internal memory, the phone's memory can be expanded to store more with a memory card.
The V630i has an excellent 72-voice polyphonic sound and MP3 files can also be used as ringtones. 72-voice polyphony means 72 notes can be played simultaneously producing a crisp and clear sound.
The streaming of media files is the fastest available through 3G data transfer speeds. 3G also enables you to connect to the internet with this significantly high broadband service.
The connectivity available on this phone is Bluetooth and USB. Bluetooth allows you to connect wirelessly up to 10 metres away to another device. Connecting to a PC via USB requires a cable.
The phone is tri-band so it will work in Europe and America but not in Japan. Its battery life is very good with up to 350 hours standby time.
Another feature this phone has is video calling. This means that you can see the person you are calling if they also have a 3G phone with video calling.
Overall this is an excellent phone with great features all round and is one of the best phones within this price range. A definite recommended buy.

i got this handset for the wifey, as a replacement for her sharp gx15 onto my contract, i must day i am getting the same phone as i like it so much, the only niggle is the memory card slot spazzes out on occasions, but remove and re-insertand it's fixed. battery lasts forever (i borrowed it the other week, used it hard, mp3 player vid calls etc it still lasted for 4 days) on one extra note it's a large handset yes, but we prefer phones we cant lose in our pockets p.s. vodafone may want you to buy games but you can download games off internet then onto your memory card in file transfer mode. very great menus 10/10 music player 8/10(needs better headphones but speakers boost score) expansion 10/10 ease of use 100/10 feel in hand 4/10 (due to too close number buttons) fluffehness (b3ta says it all) 10/10

I really like my phone, however i have had issues with it switching off on its own in my pocket. I have had this problem with a previous sony ericsson phone so it may just be the way i treat them. Overall a great phone with good features.

When I got this phone in October I thought it was very light. For a few months it worked brilliantly and I really liked it. But about 3 months after having it, it just turned itself off. I tried turning it on again, and then just turned itself off. I was quite disappointed but am gona get a new phone. The only disappointment to me was the camera in darker conditions. It was very grainy. My d600 however is brill but this is very grainy. Overall it is a good phone.

This phone is greatttt. The features are brilliant and i think the size is just perfectttt!! Though this phone may have some fault like the software but i have not experienced it. This phone has everything you would want in a phone accept one thing its on vodafone and i just wish someone can get hold of the software to unlocking it to other networks. but overall its a great phone and worth every penny!!!! :)

I bought this as an upgrade to my T610, because the speaker on the T610 was not very loud and also because I needed a faster data connection. The V630i is much louder and I can hear what is being said even when calling from a noisy place. The speaker is loud as well and you can talk hands free while driving with the phone in your lap. After a lot of trouble getting the 3G capability to work as a modem I finally gave in and called the Ericsson helpline in despair. They were brilliant and I was up and running after about 20 minutes. I suspect there is a marked difference in the quality of help provided by the network (e.g. Vodafone - useless) and the phone manufacturer. I now have instant internet connection with the USB cable that came with the phone running at about 115kbps. Very happy now.

This is a really nice phone. I previously had the V600i so know the interface pretty well, and there are some considerable improvements in this phone. The 2 MP camera actually can produce some very decent images (given good daylight), albeit they are noisy at low light levels, making this the first camera phone I have had where I could consider actually making prints from the images. The Micro SD card is very useful and makes the phone a pretty decent Mp3 player. Synch with a pc is good and straightforward, linking very well with Outlook. Only problem I have had is in charging via the supplied USB cable - seems slow to charge and only gets to about 90% whereas charging via a mains charger has no problems. Nice looking phone too, and slimmer and lighter than the v600i I had before.
