These are the most important specifications that i've collected. The rest are quite useless from my personal view. They just wanna add those in to make it longer and to confuse consumers. Overall, this phone is abit more changgih den my k770i. Can even use this phone to connect to your lappie to online coz it supports up to HSDPA!

The phone exterior looks super keng but from pictures i dont really like the keypad each key is a little too far apart. Might be abit uncomfortable especially when you are on texting mania. Just my feel, gotta touch the real phones only can verify my statement.

I like the exterior very much. Very stylish and elegant especially the front lid. the semi-circle is superbly nice. No wonder u like this phone so much. No doubt this is a nice phone at a very resonable price. But gotta see wad ppl says abt this phone first coz its very very new in m'sia. I cant believe that finally there is a flip phone that is so thin like my k770i. Felt abit of regret buying my k770i already. It claims dat both screens are scratch resistant but its not totally scratch proof. I read in forums, ppl saying that its quite easy to get scratches especially on the outter sceen.

The battery is super keng compared to my k770i which can only last for 3 hrs of continous talking. This T707 still have half of its battery after 4hrs talking on the phone =)

Speakerphone test	Voice, dB	Pink noise/ Music, dB	Ringingphone, dB	Overal score
Nokia 6600 fold	66.7	62.1	64.6	Below average
Sony Ericsson W995	65.5	66.5	73.5	Average
Sony Ericsson W302	71.6	68.6	76.7	Good
Samsung G400 Soul	69.7	73.5	84.7	Very Good
Sony Ericsson T707	74.8	81.6	75.7	Excellent

And one of the most important thing of a phone is the speaker and microphone. The microphone is by far the best comparing with the phones above. The speaker is also not too bad. Enough to wake you up when i call =)

Testimonials

"I've had this phone for about a week now. I'm very impressed with the design. It's very sleek and "cute" I got mine in pink.

I'm happy with the camera, the pictures are very clear. I like the menu style, there are a few to choose from for you own preference.

'm a huge texter, the although the keypad does not look plastic, it's kind of flat and spread out. Spread out is usually good, but it's really hard when it's flat also because my thumb/hand gets so tired after texting."

"However, I'm pretty upset with the camera, doesn't look like a 3.15MP cam with image quality almost the same with my old w700i. The only good thing is, this phone processes image faster, that's all.

I'm giving this phone a 8 out of 10. "

"when someone calls you, and you want to mute the call, or if you want to snooze your alarm, just wave your hand over the camera and that's the gesture control... it's kind of difficult to use though you have to move your hand the right way."

"The exterior is really beautiful...
But, I don't really like the keypads...
It would be better if the screen are larger, may be as big as G705 or W715
If only there is a G705 repackaged as a beautiful clamshell... *sigh
G705 itself is a beauty though..."

"Well what can we say about the Sony Ericsson T707 mobile phone other than fantastic. It caters for all ages but will be very eye-catching to the younger generation. It is stylish and has all the mod cons we expect to be available on mobile phones today but that are not too fussy or complicated. We at mobilefonereviews.co.uk think this handset wii be a hit and definitely popular amongst those who enjoy listening to music and keeping in contact with friends and family, a great mid range handset. We like this mobile phone Sony and think the T707 will do extremely well indeed!"

Overall the T707 sounds not too bad. I myself had already been indulged by its sexy silky exterior. The price is around rm700 for an AP set. So far there isnt any bad comments about the design fault or which ever yet. Unlike my phone, the keypad become less sensitive is due to the design fault. No matter how many times sending it for repairing and warranty the problem will comes back in a while....
