Don't buy these fon!!!...mine is only 2 months old and its already pissing me off. I had to bring it to the service shop today to upgrade the firmware coz it won't power on. Even my officemate encountered the same problem also last week.
I am really very disappointed with this fon...although its my 3rd SE phone already. And the fact that both me and my officemate experienced the same exact problem, it just means that there is really something wrong with this fon.
The answer to that is simple. Its called the joys of owning a
Put up with it. I love my W550. Sure it has it flaws (only a few) but imo its a better phone than some of the previous offerings.
If it was awful I wouldn't have had mine in constant use for the past 2 months. It would have been sold by now.
People on here know how much I change my phones and I've had nearly all

's that have been avaiable bar the W900. Don't have any reason to rush out and buy one myself.

Yes. You dont read much do ya ? If you thought of using the search feature first before asking you would see that it already been covered.
The 'loop' thing is the phones antenna. Exactly the same as found on the

Z520 and

's Japan Premini range.

ty 4 d info mr. well read.i'm not the kinda person who likes to compromise&the w550i is a compromise for those who can't afford a w800i,which is why i never really did any research on this budget walkman phone.i can understand why u r so upset on my small query.when you make a compromise in life u have to defend it to save ur face&that frustration has led to anger in ur case.

Compromise ?
I think not. Again if you look through the posts here on Esato you will see that I own/have owned every

handset since the T68i. Only one I'm not bothered with is the W900.
What bothers me is when people post utter bollocks straight away instead of getting some previous background info in the subject(s) they're commenting on.
What the W800 has over the W550:
2mp camera with auto focus
Up to 2gb external memory (32mb internal)
Thats it.
What the W550 has over the W800:
Twin speakers (much louder and clearer than W800)
Better gaming along with dedicated buttons.
Updated Walkman software
Over the air software updates (the first

phone to have this feature)
Customisable facias
Much better reception signal (no loss of call)
UI is much faster.
Theres more than this.
Oh W550 has a D pad instead of fragile joystick that breaks easily.
The W550 is cheaper due to

not including a 2mp camera and external memory. Just think if

had included these features (Look at the W900)
