Sony Ericsson Z750a Cell Phone Review

ebeth
I usually buy the cheapest phone in the store when I get a new cell phone. I will enter the story saying, "All I want is a cell phone, not a computer." However, I do love technology, so it has become almost impossible to continue resisting the more high tech cell phones of today. Last May when it was time to upgrade, I decided bypass the cheap, and step it up a bit. Unfortunately, my decision to get a fancier cell phone cost me more than just a little money.

I would strongly recommend not buying the Sony Ericsson z750a. This cell phone has caused me nothing but trouble. It's a very cute phone that comes in three colors: pink, purple and gray; but appearance is all it has going for it. The cons far outweigh the pros on the Sony Ericsson z750a.

Because it is very slick, the z750a Sony Ericsson cell phone is very easy to drop. That alone wouldn't be so bad; but this phone is so sensitive, the slightest drop will cause it to malfunction. I have always dropped my cell phones in the past and had no problem with them afterwards, but I was extra careful with this Sony Ericsson cell phone because it was more expensive. After only dropping this cell phone once, I started having major problems with it. Luckily, I had insurance on my phone so it didn't cost anymore than fifty dollars to replace it, but that's fifty dollars I shouldn't have had to spend. If a cell phone is going to be so slick that it is almost impossible not to drop, then it should be made much more durable.

Regardless of whether or not it gets dropped, this Sony Ericsson cell phone is unreliable in many ways. The battery doesn't hold a charge very long, the vibrate function doesn't always work, and the phone sometimes has trouble sending and receiving pictures. But the most frustrating problem with this phone is that it will randomly go completely dead and won't come back on until you take the battery out and put it back in. Sometimes it even takes a few tries before it finally comes back to life. I've never had a phone do this to me, even the very inexpensive phones I used to buy.

Technology can be a wonderful thing when it works. When I first got my new cell phone, I was looking forward to using all the advanced features I didn't have on the cheaper phones I used to buy. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of choosing the Sony Ericsson z750a. Now I am stuck with this cell phone for another eighteen months. If you are considering buying a new cell phone, don't waste your money on the Sony Ericsson z750a.

    I think it's sad that people can't leave their house without a phone to their ear! I have one only for emergencies - A Virgin Moble that costs me $15.00 every three months, that's how infrequently I use it. It's never on unless I tell someone to call me, so the battery won't die. If left on, the battery will die over night, but I NEVER leave it on. Works for me! If you need to talk to me so bad, call my land line!
