Sony Ericsson Vivaz pro Specs

7.3

Description

The Sony Ericsson Vivaz pro is almost identical to the Vivaz but has some key differences. First of, it features a side-sliding QWERTY keyboard for the texting crowd out there and second, it has a 5-megapixel camera, as opposed to 8MP. Fortunately, it has kept its ability to shoot HD resolution videos.

This device is also known as Sony Ericsson U8

Bad built quality
Phone owned for more than a year

I've had this phone for 2 years now and it is my 2nd vivaz pro because my first one broke (read rating). The quality of my phone right now has some plastic parts falling off and the screen is scratched all over, since the phone is a slide phone there are two parts and the two parts are quite loose as of now. It also has a lot of technical issues wuch as when i'm on youtube watching videos a white screen would appear with "insert sim card" when obviously i do have my sim card in, there is no way to exit out of it so i would have to turn of the cell phone and turn it on again, and some times that doesnt work so i would have to take the batteries out and re-insert it. When it turns on again it puts itself in 'flight-mode' and uses up a lot of battery. However i am not the only person with these problems, i know 3 other people with similar problems with the same phone. A friend had the exact same problems as me, unfortuanaly their phone comany did not cover their damages and they had to get a new phone. Another friend was sleeping when someone texted them, being in the middle of the night and sleepy they slide the keyboard up very harshy and the keyboard slid right off and hit the wall in front of them. And the last person happens to be someone that was infront of me when i was in line to get a new phone, they had the same phone and the same problems.

insert Sim card
Phone owned for less than a month

It gets stuck on the "insert SIM card" message which is annoying when you consider this locks you out of features which should be useable such as camera, audio/video recording, calculator, photo viewer, etc. All you can do is make a 911 call if you don't have a SIM. If there is an SD card present, the absence of a SIM card shouldn't lock out the phones many other features!
