Sony Ericsson T303 was created for users who are not looking for the high-end features, but for those who want quite a simple phone, with good basic features, and also a good looking device. That’s why, many of you might consider it quite a mediocre phone, lacking some important features.

Features and specifications: GSM900/GSM1800/GSM1900 network; Bluetooth and USB connectivity; a 1.3 megapixel camera, with 4 x digital zoom; LCD display; GPRS; Internet browser; WAP; memory:8; downloadable, MP3, and polyphonic ringtones; audio recording; call history; FM Radio; PC Sync; tasks; timer; dimension of 83 x 47 x 15, and a weight of 93g.

The main advantages of this phone are considered to be the metal cased compact slider design, the FM radio, the mirrored front, the menus, and the price. The main disadvantages are: the camera doesn’t have flash or autofocus; no expansion for the memory card; no 3G; no video capture; low resolution. But, as I have mentioned, the T303’s purpose was not the high tech features.

The Sony Ericsson T303 is available through O2, Orange and T-Mobile, in Silver or Black, at the launching price of £80.
