Sony Ericsson K300i

By Jeremy Roche on 10 March 2005

Sony Ericsson's K300i is a decent all-rounder handset that includes a good mix of features such as a built-in VGA camera and infrared to wirelessly transfer photos to PC. Taking photos and sending text messages is a breeze, although a few bundled accessories like a USB cable would have been nice.

    its joy stick is troublesome after 2 month of extensive use

    even its connectivity to computer and handsfree is lost after 2 yr and 10 month(because of degradation of its IC)
    and after 3 yr there is malfunction in its keypad.

    but its too strong when free fall,
    minimizable media player,
    good modem

    • Good: Compact design.
    • Bad: Camera stills only average in quality.
      Camera performs poorly in low light conditions.
      Annoying keypad.

    Bore package from nokia. This mobile flops. No any features which satisfied us and no any quality. I rank this mobile 0.

      -Kept unlocking in pocket and calling people

    Would be 1 out of ten but it wont let me rate that low

    Had it for 6 months
    Wanted to throw it off a cliff... terrible fone....upgraded to a Motorola V3...much better considering its 130 bucks cheaper
    -I ended up smashing it with a hammer for a radio show.

    • Good: - Specker.
      - Camera.
      - Picture and Video Quailtys.
    • Bad: - Joystick.
      - Charger.
      - No Bluetooth.

    This was a good phone when I first got it but now.
    It has good specker. Its cheap for a camera phone but i won it so....bargain.
    The joystick is now stuffed, it does not press down, left, and it just goes up and right.
    It does not charge propely.
    Overall 4, It isnt a very good phone.
