Aesthetically speaking, Sony Ericsson has some interesting and attractive phones. Sometimes it is the pure design of the phone, and sometimes it is the way the device displays information that makes it a treat for the eye. The s500i is a fine example of this ideal! This Ericsson cell phone is a sight to behold, with it's ability to set in phone themes and lighting effects that not only change as the day goes by, but also depending on the day of the week. Naturally, this is the phone to have if you enjoy showing of how pretty your phone looks, but aesthetics isn't everything. The phone supports every kind of messaging you would expect, such as SMS, MMS, Email and chat. It also has full bluetooth functionality so that all of your favorite wireless accessories will be compatible. Last but not least, the 2.0 megapixel camera allows you to take sharp pictures for a camera phone, and you can upload them directly to your blog. The phone also has a fully functioning media player, with disc to phone management software that lets you grab songs directly from your PC and put it on the mobile device. The media player supports a variety of formats so you can always get to your music. The phone also has standard features like Alarm clock, calculator, calender, flight mode, notes, phone book, stopwatch, tasks, and timer. While this may not be the most effective phone for mobile computing, it's an attractive piece of hardware that can get the job done.
