Since we already have a thread dedicated to Ericsson mobiles I thought it was about time we had a thread where Sony fans could discuss Sony mobile phones.
I'll start things off with a wee poll:
What was the best Sony mobile phone and why do you think so?

my favourite was the J5
It was rather slim much more technologically advanced than all the 3310's that were out at the same time.
4 colour grey-scale screen, great T9, jogdial, sandart and monkey games (both with great music)
Saying that, i never owned one

Z5 for the same reasons. It's just so small, am feels nice, that 3d jog dial works a treat. And it does have a decent resolution for monochrome.

Sony Z5 was my 1st mobile phone.
That phone inspired me to stay with Sony 4 ever.................

the only Sony phone I had was the Z5 and MZ5 but didn't keep them long because they didn't even have the basic IR port that the other phones I was using at that time had and I have always done alot of data from psion,palm and ipaq and also from pc so it was quite a limitation.
The interface was nice and the memory stick and music ability of the MZ5 was pretty cool for its day
As a fan of most Sony products I for one am glad Sony teamed up with Ericsson to produce what we are seeing today!

My own personal favourite was the Z7; in a world of dull green monochromatic screens, we suddenly had an orange backlight!

I liked the Z5, but the protruding aeriel ruined it for me, when the Z7 came along I just had to have it.
I once met a lady who had painted her Z5 gold; this sounds tackier than it was, it actually cut a very fine dash in my opinion.

The J5 was one of my first phones too, and was fantastic for it's day. In fact the scroll wheel was sorely missed when I upgraded to a T610, as was the fact that I couldn't tell at a glance when I had a new text message!

I got a bit nostalgic a couple of months ago and bought a good Z5 off ebay. I also bought a Z7 for comparison but still preferred the Z5 although, yes, the aerial was something not to like. didn't like the Z7 orange screen at all and I didn't really like the jog dial being moved down to the middle from the top, although we all have that now of course with the P series.
I realised my stupidity and that I would never use those phones again so I resold them on ebay shortly after
you can still buy gold coloured Z5 and Z7 housings on ebay btw
