  • great phone 

  • Highly recommend no one gets this phone

    the vivaz broke on me 11 times... it was funny because the 11th time i'll admit was me, i threw it at a wall.. due to been so pissed off, the buttons break, the phone overall, shit, texting is shit... battery use.. everything just terrible, worse phone ever.. pure slow.. does what it wants, use to send texts to people in my contacts... weird phone, horrible...

    sony ericson phones are very unreliable.

  • xperia mini:)

    

  • xperia x8 or vivaz?

  • @giannakos1313

    buy xperia neo v,, it better,, x8 the screen so tough,, very sensitive,, my brother use it,, it make me and my brother stress!!!! so hard for messaging,, screen small,,

  • Can someone tell me which is better Xperia mini or Vivaz ?

  • @rtLuka definitely the mini. Although the screen is smaller and the camera is of lesser quality than the vivaz, the mini runs on android, which means you get a ton of apps, much more than symbian, and higher quality too. Also, android is much smoother than symbian. You should try both out. Symbian is less touch friendly in my opinion........

  • @cashworks8888: You're the shit. I have a Vivaz.And is very responsive.You better calibrate the touchscreen.

    BTW, Guys. Vivaz is hackable.I hacked mine.Now i can install many unsigned apps =))

  • @Protostark

  • @fentimanway1 Ohhh! thanks for the answer! i went today to the downtown and i check both phones again... and guess what? i decided to buy the vivas thanks to you and also because the AINO it's touch but not all the functions are from the display, but the buttons. So, thank you again buddy!

  • STFU OMFG YOU SOUND SO FUCKING GAY

  • @McMIxTER I'm assuming you speak his language better then he speaks English ,this gentleman is Bulgarian in my knowledge.Don't observe the spark in someone else s eyes when you have a nuclear reactor in YOURSE!!!

  • @DulferCarter Yourse... lol

    I bought this last July and used it until now...

    My phone suddenly unable to connect with the USB,

    and all my files (including photos, musics, messages) disappeared !

    It's totally EMPTY, like the very 1st time you're using it

    Until now, my phone is totally A CRAP !!!

    I SERIOUSLY HATE THIS PHONE & REGRETTED FOR BUYING THIS !!

  • @ChristenEunice lol, you just need to take your memory card out and put it back in. Either that or you formated your memory card.

  • im confused between vivaz and Nokia N97 mini.

    which one is better in build quality ?

    i just use internet sometimes, use social apps, youtube etc ..

  • i have it 16months

    battery is pretty good for this type of phone camera is good but they should put shortcut for light instead of searching it in to menu.....

    sometimes it is too complicated for use like during driving or similar.....

    my gps dosent working anymore it worked until few months but even before it was hard to get gps signal , sound is really bad, i hate playlists very hard to put songs on it and i hate i need every time to unlock phone to adjust volume or change track

  • x8

  • sony ericsson vivaz vs xperia x8?? plz help

  • This phone is just AWESOME!!! I mean, who need a original sylus pen when you can use just a pencil or a roller-pen :)) And is cheaply :))

  • In my country,,,

    This phone cost RM500..

    So, is it worth it?

  • @acegenerals

    i think yes i have it for 16months pretty good phone if i remember good i pay it almost 4times more

  • i had this phone

    i think that it is shit display isnt good because i hate stylus

  • comparing this vivaz to the nokia 5800 xm? .. which phone is better ?

    specs : 1) sound?  2) camera? 3) applications compatibility?

  • @zamreehana

    sound on vivaz is really bad

    camera is one of best i have ever seen on phones

    application compatibility same vivaz is much faster have good battery but there is no possibility to change volume or track while phone is locked and bad playlists

  • @zamreehana sound:nokia camera:vivaz :the same thing :D

  • Muito loco! já é meu!

  • Ahahaha funny cartoon :D

  • This piece of shit sucks donkey balls.

    I'd rather go with a non touch phone than this.

    Internet browsing sucks. Touch response sucks. Build quality sucks. Antennas suck. This is a fucking piece of garbage. Worst 400 Euros spent ever.

  • a faszom a vizedbe rohadtul nem az érdekel te TOPA!

  • in canada, the menu screen is much different

  • DON'T BUY THIS PHONE. Ringing volume very poor when it is in your pocket, vibrate alert is also very poor. Operating system is soooo outdated and seems very slow straight out of the box. Symbian does not suit this phone as there are limited apps that work on this fone. The only saving grace is the camera system. It is decent to say the least but can be quite slow to work at times. Touch interface does seem to lag alot also.

  • has someone problems with the touch screen ? I bought my 5 days ago and i think it is very good ,but the TOUCH from my brother vivaz stoped to work , should he replace the phone or is that a little problem which one he can fix easy ????

  • Symbiansss

  • Don't get this phone. Simple, It's a hassle all the time, the keys while composing a text are far too small and far to sensitive. The shutter speed is sooooooo slow, granted it's a good camera and I have no complaints about the quality of the picture. The whole OS is outdated as it's symbian. Far better value for money out now in 2011, Get the ARC if your a sony ericsson fan and can afford it!

  • @nookia1000

    NOKIA

  • I got my Vivaz about 8 months ago.. I LOVE IT. :D

  • @nookia1000

    HHHHHHHH YOUR NAME IS NOOKIA

    SO THIS IS NORMAL WHAT U SAY

    I SAY THIS PHONE IS REALY GOOD :))

  • Vivaz is better or Xperia X8 is better?

  • should i buy this .... ????

  • @STeReoLoGiC88 No...

  • @STeReoLoGiC88 Actually, is not that good... But the phone is good, but now it is old... I recomend you to buy Motorola Defy or Samsung Galaxy S, or iPhone or something like this...

  • @STeReoLoGiC88 you will totally regret if you buy this ! seriously...

  • @ChristenEunice ty im clad i didnt then

  • Never buy this phone i had this phone for 6 moths and it fucked up me. When i went to bed to charge it and when i got up it did not charge and i when took my charger out the usb slot came out i was pissed of with it. I took to the repair store they sed it would be done in 2 weeks. After 2 weeks they sed they could fix it the mother broad is broken and i did buy another Sony Ericsson agrin So got Nokia N8 better than the Sony Ericsson vivaz.

  • @Muman360 I meant could not fix it

  • NEVER NEVER BUY THIS PHONE : i have one and it suck balls , Facebook sucks , youtube sucks , camera works good sometimes"" ,u can only download games and apps from playnow and it cost money , Buy iphone best phone .

  • @CristianoRronaldo9 Sry, but iPhone is too more expensive, and Samsung Galaxy S i9000 is cheapier and MUCH better...

  • can you change the twitter tab into something else?

  • i got u now...love this phone!

  • his face made me mad...

  • I want this phone so badly, but At&t forces me to get internet with it which is $15 a month, otherwise the phone would cost way more.....

  • Hello, This mobile have video call feature?

  • @khitzf it does not

  • i just got this today and i looooove it

  • Yuck..I'll stick to x10 ..but it has a cute design..just not liking the screen phase..

  • @EsperComplex i just got this phone (but its the one with the slied out keyboard) and it seamed a littel slow to me if you have an x 10 keep it theres probly going to be a new version out soon

  • what was the main website he went to when he opened his browser?

    and does anyone know where i can download games for free on this phone??

  • This phone is pretty cool, the only things wrong with it are the onscreen keyboard is wayyy too small, the sound output is too quiet, it lacks alot of apps/features and the camera has no flash, but it is a really cool compact phone and it takes AMAZING pictures & videos in good light.

  • i like your voice :)

  • Hey guys, I have this phone too, is there an app I can download to check how many SMS I sent, and received?

  • @nookia1000 You REALLY didnt get my comment did you?

  • I have the vivaz pro !!!!

  • Hey, i have a problem with this phone. it ran out of battery just today and when i go to charge it its not letting me turn it on? I don't know what to do.

  • @phounpadith yeah that is a problem with the Vivaz when the battery runs out u have to charge it up for about half an hour or so untill u can even turn it on, sometimes u might jus get a white screen, i was hoping this would be fixed with updates but apparently not..., Dont worry ure not the only one jus give it a good charging, if that fails then re-insert the battery.

  • multi touch?

    

  • Whether it is necessary to change good phone of Nokia 5530 for this? Vivaz it seems to me to more stylish.

  • can anyone answer my question ? if you transfer music files from your computer to your sony ericsson using the data cord, can you make that file your ring tone ? or do you have to buy songs to make them your ring tone ?

  • @PoppinJony Short answer: yes.

    Long answer: I have the Vivaz Pro, which is the exact same, but with a QWERTY keyboard. I found that as long as it's in the folder 'Sounds,' (within the folder 'Sound files') you can make it your ringtone, regardless of file size. Please thumbs up if I helped :)

  • @PoppinJony Short answer: You don't have to buy them.

  • to get sony ericsson vivaz or a htc hd mini?

  • @GabyTeh HTC HD Mini.. The Vivaz isn't responsive enough in my opinion:/ I love SE, but i think it has a too plasticy feel, and Android is better.. Though my opinion:) Both good phones (I've got an HTC Desire, it's quite awesome aswell )

  • @GabyTeh Either is great.

    if it was me i would pick the one with the best features

  • Got my Vivaz Pro 3 days ago. My Review..

    - Its a good phone

    - Good camera

    - Resistive touch screen (touch it with fingernail make it easier)

    - Sound is decent, nokia XM5130 is better

    - Battery, after initial charge, i used it a lot to configure all the setting (wifi, themes, profiles, install apps, media, txts, calls etc) still it can reach 2 days, and it can reach max performance after 3-5 charge cycle.

    - No lag, no turn off itself

    - Worth my money.. USD250, GBP160

  • @cavatics ok.

  • I have this phone. Everything the examiner has said about the handset is true. However i must warn you the restive touch screen is very hard to type quickly on, its also quite insensitive. It's a shame because this phone would be a whole lot better is it was capacitive.

  • @gavin20295 - seriously??? damn! this was my dream phone!

    thanks for replying

  • i really like this phone...i didn't know how great it was until yesterday since my bf got it...i have the sony ericsson xperia x10 mini and i regret this purchase a bit because i now like the vivaz better.... damn u sony ericsson for making so many cool handsetts!!u can't just pick one and that's it!!! lololol....i want this phone now........ :(

  • @themita So Vivaz is better than x10? I am still not sure witch one should I buy. I really need a new phone because my w810i is like 4 years old :P

  • @ViliPlayer haha,i don't know because nobody replied .....antway,i now think that the vivaz has some things that are holdind back the beauty of it...it freezes from time to time and shuts down suddenly...when u text,well,you can't text THAT fast because the screen is not THAT sensitive...but in the SE xperia mini u can text veeeery fast,if r texting a lot it is very nice,and u can download for free any app you want from the android market...the only thing is that it is a bit complex....

  • @ViliPlayer , X10 runs on android OS while Vivas runs on Symbian. which one is better? it depends on your preference and you can read about both OS.

  • @themita is it really good? I have a w580i with a lot of problems...what color did he get?

  • @TheAudiTTfan he got the silver one and it is really nice....nice camera and graphics....i like it....r u thinking of getting it?

  • @themita I got the black one on Monday-Great phone, just that there are some drawbacks:

    It's a bit slow

    sometimes you have to double click things

    the loading to camera/videorecording takes a bit of time

    Sometimes the touchscreen is a bit sluggish

    but otherwise its a great phone!

  • i like this phone so much . cool phone.

  • its so shiny you can see the camera lol

  • i love sony ericsson...................

  • this phone sucks!! close ur eyes and get samsung wave.its prise low and very nice verrry verrrry nice phone.u will never feel regret. :)

  • indeed haha
