I'm thinking of getting the Z770, any advice? Does it have any bugs and should I update to the latest firmware once I get it? I'm attracted to the brushed metal finish and also the clamshell form factor. I've been using the boring candy bar phones for a long time now, so I thought I should go for something different. If there's any reason why I shouldn't get it, do let me know. Thanks!

I think about Sony Ericsson because of its listening music feature.

@WhiteEye, thanks for the very helpful link. The review was really informative and now I have a clearer picture of what to expect if I were to get the Z770. If anyone else has any other comments about the phone, please feel free to post them here, it'll be of great help to me. Thanks!

Well, I've bought the Z770. Looks really good. That's what attracted me in the first place. I've not encountered any firmware issues so far, and I hope it stays that way. I'm new to the A200 platform, but I'm pretty much impressed by it so far. I thought I'd have some trouble getting used to the new "Call" and "End" keys, but it wasn't too bad. The UI is relatively intuitive. One gripe I have with the Z770 is that the keys are a little too far apart and the layout is a bit difficult to navigate without looking at the keypad. Overall, I'm satisfied with the phone.

Good for you, deluded. I just bought it as well. Have you tried updating it via SEUS?

@G-Izzat, I've tried updating through my phone, it says I have the latest firmware, R1EA033. Anyway, I've not encountered any problems with the current firmware, so I think it's fine the way it is.
@WhiteEye, there was no memory card in the box. I can't recall if there was a cd as I never use the PC Suite. Why don't you try using MyPhoneExplorer? I don't even need to install any drivers cos I'm using bluetooth. It's so much more convenient.

I don't use the push mail myself, so I'm not too sure about it, but a quick check on the net tells me that the Z770 is supposed to support push mail. I prefer to use the Gmail app as I'm not very reliant on emails for communication and would rather check my emails only when I need to. As for the web browser, it does look pretty impressive. I'd say it's a huge leap from the one on my K770. However, I'm still more comfortable using Opera Mini, so I can't really give much feedback on the in-built browser as I've only used it a couple of times. All in all, the Z770 is a decent phone and I'll be using it for a while.
