Sony Ericsson TM506 Review

 

The Sony Ericsson TM506 stands out as a basic cell phone with traits that many others lack: it feels solidly constructed, and the design is sleek and aesthetically pleasing. The TM506 also works on T-Mobile's 3G network, so users get faster download...

With its solid construction and a bundle of functional features, the TM506 is an appealing choice for users looking for a basic handset. There are a few shortcomings, including the static that comes with higher sound volume, the small external display...

Review: Sony Ericsson TM506

 

Sony Ericsson and T-Mobile have teamed up for the first time in four years to offer the 3G-equipped TM506. It is capable in many departments, but falls short in others.

Sony Ericsson TM506

 

The Sony Ericsson TM506 is a myFaves version 1.5. This means that it supports all of the ever-popular myFaves features and plans. The screen is a 262,144 color TFT and it contains 320 x 240 pixels. The phone has 35 MB of built-in storage and features...

Attractive looking ; Built-in GPS ; Networks include EDGE, GSM 850, 1800, 1900, HSDPA 1700/2100 and UMTS 1700/2100 ; Excellent call quality

Out of reach for some budgets

The Sony Ericsson TM506 is pretty as a picture with its chrome with amber color. Just in case you are green with envy, you might want to choose the bright emerald color instead. Both colors are equally alluring for the TM506

Love this phone. It is fun and so easy to navigate. Large window display is a great feature and soft touch keys are nice to use. All around, very cool phone.

Decent phone

 

My bill is a lot lower than when I had the Blackberry curve. Miss that phone but dont miss the bill.

Good phone, slim design and some corny features

GPS doesnt work for nothing, Im in the los angeles area and it keeps saying signal too week then sends me somewhere in san fran. I really dont need the GPS anyways but kinda pointless to have a feature that doesnt work. Besides its a 14 day trial anyways
