Review Summary: Useful features made impractical
Overall Score: 3/5 Overall score - 3Overall score - 3
Review: The reason I bought this Sony J70 mobile phone was mainly because it had a Scheduler. It does and it IS useful but with a couple of problems I wish I had known before I bought it - the text for the scheduled event is limited to about 15 characters, and you cannot change the alarm for the event (only pick 5 mins before, or one day before - hardly useful in either instance).

Also the games are rubbish and, although I didn't buy it for the games or ringtones, the fact that you cannot update, import or change them essentially makes them a waste of space - I would rather have had more memory in Scheduler.

The ring tones are all annoying and too quiet (the polyphonic turned my head, but it was a mistake). The ability to record your own ringtone is fun, but it just isn't practical.

But, whinging aside, I find the 'wheel' control brilliant, it's small and light, the build quality good, the quality of sound is excellent and it's nice to have something other than a Nokia.
