Sony Ericsson T226 Cell Phone

Pros: Very functional!

Cons: Relatively slow as per data entry speed.

The Bottom Line: Very compact and light weight. The sound quality overall is pretty good.

Review: This phone was released around January of 2003. The T226 works under the networks GSM 850 / 1900. Measuring only 102mm x 43mm x 18 mm and having a weight of only 79 grams, this cell phone makes an interesting tool. This would definitely suit the taste of ...

Pros: Size, reception, audio quality are EXCELLENT. Sure is blue!

Cons: It won't turn heads if that's what you care about. Sure is blue!

The Bottom Line: An excellent value if you use your mobile telephone for communicating with others. Less impressive if you must be entertained by ringtones and such.

Review: If you care about games, IM'ing your friends, or listening to Top 10 hits as ringtones, get another phone. If you care about having a TINY mobile with EXCELLENT reception and audio, you can't go wrong with this little guy. (Of course, all of this is ...

Pros: Sound quality, lightweight, color screen

Cons: poor imported picture quality, poor style compared to newer phones

The Bottom Line: I got this phone for less than free with a provider's plan. If you can't get the same, you may want to look at something else.

Review: I actually made $50 for taking this phone after service provider rebates. It's a great little phone. SOUNDS & RINGTONES - This has that polyphonic ringtone feature that you hear all the time nowadays. The tones aren't that great, but I bought a ...

Pros: Nice Screen, good reception, good features

Cons: Bad ringtones, Bad Camera Attachment, TINY!

Review: I do like T226 i get good reception, a color screen, and an overall nice phone. I would have to say that the Camera attachment that comes with it is an absolute JOKE! and the ringtones that come with it are horrible, i mean your body is a wonderland who ...

Pros: Long battery life, dowloadable ring tones, graphics, themes and games, color screen

Cons: No camera, not flip, small buttons (which could also be a pro)

Review: The T226 is a very basic but reliable phone. it has all the features that an everyday user needs, phone book, text messages, ring tones, call list, and even some games. There is an optional camera attachment that I find bulky and just not with the cash. ...

Pros: Good sound; small and easy to carry; good menu system

Cons: Weird text input; the ring tones and such which come standard are rotten

The Bottom Line: Not bad for a free phone, but better alternatives are available if you want to pay the extra cash.

Review: Indeed, The Man (a.k.a., the folks at my office) -- with a little help from his ruthless agent (a.k.a., my wife) -- convinced me to get a cellular phone. I hate cellular phones with a blind passion, but it seems I missed one call too many from work. So, ...

Pros: Good reception, decent price, record your own ringtones

Cons: Combo keypad/action button horrible, few useful features

The Bottom Line: Too many quirks, get it if it's offered free with your plan

Review: Sony Ericcson's T226 is the latest budget/entry level compact cell phone. I'm going to compare the T226 to it's cousin the T68i, which I've used before. My father's T68i, while loaded with features, still didn't sound as clear as my T226. Although ...

Pros: Adequate reception, good entry level phone

Cons: Display grainy, small keypad for text messaging, poor vibrate function

The Bottom Line: Adequate for basics, can make and receive phone calls with good reception. Though feature filled, low screen resolution limits use of advanced graphics features.

Review: This is a review of the T237 (basically the T226 design with a few feature updates including speakerphone, no separate category on Epinions for T237). If you are looking for a cheap phone for basic low volume calling (as landlineless using it on ...

Pros: Cheap, Color Screen

Cons: Poor signal performance, scratches easily.

Review: The Sony Ericsson T226 is an average cell phone for the average cell user. It comes with a basic set of features and nothing else. The phone does sometimes have problems maintaining calls without disconnecting and the call quality can be on the low end ...

Pros: Great Battery Life.

Cons: The Color Screen Is Not Very Vibrant, The Phone is Ugly.

Review: I have owned this phone for about a year now, it is just a basic phone. The color screen is washed out and milky looking. The phone is ugly and the menus are hard to use. Don't buy this ...
