Hi everyone
I brought a T68i about 3 months ago, after working fine and I was VERY happy with it for this period, but it suddenly would not switch on....
meaning I LOST EVERYTHING thats was on the fone, settings, phonebook, logos, screensavers, ringtones...
so I had to get a replacement....
then after working fine, the replacement i got, it turned out had a fault AGAIN!!!!!
again i lost everything...
The LCD would suddenly switch off....now I went to get a replacement and they give me YET ANOTHER reconditioned FAULTY FONE!!!!!!!
Now I have'nt had a fone for about 4 months...
SE are great fone but they REALLY need to consider RELIABILY!!!!!!! and SOFTWARE FAULTS...
problems like these will lose customers
when I went to collect my fone last time, I was told that the company had 200 T68is being repaired!!!!!!!
This was in Barnet, so its not a very big place, and even then 200 people have found faults returned their T68is...
Not only that but I was told that P800s and other phones came in regulary too.
Infact she said that Sony Ericssons were THE most faultiest fones because soooo many were being taken away for repairment.
The most reliable fones are supposed to be nokias and motorolas, both phone brands that I have owned and now dislike.
I have sent SE letter to which they have'nt replied...
I doubt I will EVER buy a SE fone again because of the hassle that it has cost me.
Not because they are bad fones its because there are too many SE with major faults....

I'm on my second T68i, and some of the guys at work are on their 5th after just 3 months (not all because of reliability issues - T68s don't make good footballs apparently)
Having said that the one I have is fine, no problems at all. I think it comes down to pot luck.
They're still very good phones (when they work) and can't be matched IMHO on specification. I'd buy another if I lost mine...

i had some bad experiences with my t65 and my current p800's screen has to be replaced because it felt down from a high place.
BUT
i will be buying sony ericsson phones all my life. they truly differentiate from other brands. nokia is nokia and i don't like it (some people do, i don't); while the rest of the brands are all the same. same standard OR boring OR ugly designs. latest products are COHERENTLY designed (well, with the exception of the t610's 2mb of memory) and the whole
philosophy is what i love.
SO
having a faulty phone can always happen, it's a matter of luck, and every brand has this problems, more or less. i forgive
and what's more, i support
so they can become better and better.

SE really has a problem with reliability. I know that all my friends with a SE phone had to REPLACE it at least once! Not repair it cuz smtng happened to it but replace it when it was dead! I don't think i wanna pay at least 200$ or a phone broking down regulary. I plan to buy a t310 and i really don't know what to do just cuz of this.

A friend who bought the T68i after she saw my T300 just sent her phone in for repairs after only two weeks. The phone came with a slightly faulty slider, which she felt wasn't a big problem, then the No button stopped working.
@701: Offtopic for this thread, this is from another thread.
I ended up buying a Nokia 6610 instead of a T310. The T310 is $200 with the camera, and the 6610 is $260. I did detailed side by side comparisons of both phones, and figured out each phone's strengths and weaknesses, and felt what the 6610 lacks are cosmetic, while what the T310 lacks are crippling.
Sorry for the long post.

Well... I've got my t68 for 1,5 year now... and I never had problems with it... I've got many friends with a t68... and none of them had problems with it... I also work at an electronic shop.. and the most faulty phones we receive are no 1: Nokia and no 2: Motorola... (and we don't really sell many of the motorola's)...
Cheers
