Sony Ericsson K660i Review
28 April 2008
| Avg user rating:
Available in three colours depending what operator you’re with, the K660i is a stylish handset that feels comfortable in the palm of your hand. The keys are ideally located for when using the handset horizontally.
With the internet being at the core of the device, the ultra-fast HSDPA connection enhances the experience. The K660i also has Google Maps, TrackID and PlayNow embedded. There’s also a two-megapixel camera and built-in music player.
The numeric keys are a little on the fiddly side. The novel mouse pointer only adds to the joyous web experience, while the shortcut keys are all ideally located for a quick press of the thumb.
Surfing the net is near faultless. The HSDPA capabilities means it’s fast, while the mouse pointer is sure to become a regular feature in future handsets. The camera is rather modest, while the RSS feeds were unreliable.
Sony Ericsson handsets usually offer ample battery life and the K660i is no exception. 540 minutes talktime and 330 hours standby should prove to be more than enough.
Pros: The mouse pointer provides a PC-like internet experience.
Cons: The provided headphones are too long and are prone to becoming tangled up.

Verdict: For the person who is constantly checking emails, football scores or their Facebook updates, the K660i will provide all the means necessary. Billed as a mid-range handset, this is one of the best in the market.

One of Sony Ericsson's best of 2008 This mobile was one of the company's best for last year. It is well built. Practical. High speed web. Well designed music player. It lacks the multimedia power of the CyberShot range in terms of photography and doesn't have other features such as satellite navigation or extensive third party apps but is a solid mobile whose solid performance means it is a good solid investment. Underestimated yet ideal for anyone looking for a reliable mobile with quick web access.
