@Thetis101 agreed. but resistive is so cheap to make, it makes it perfect for a device that isnt really high end. i agree 100% though. capacitive is the way to go.
Could you review the Sharp 81iuc? It's a phone for the chinese market that runs windows phone 6.5. The good part though is it's killer 3.5 inch Mobile ASV display, which Sharp is notorious in Japan for doing very well. It's definitely not your standard Sharp FX. Thanks!
Very nice review, i love all of yours.. im a heavy facebook user and social network user, And many of my friends have blackberrys, I checked out the htc evo and a few blackberrys.. what you you suggest noah, because i do alot of social networking and i do use a good amount of data.
Good review, not so good phone. Looks like the folks at AT&T are at it again. What is their resistance to offer high end phones? Is it their loyalty to Apple or is it contractual? On a high note it is nice to see Sony Ericsson getting back in the game, so to speak.
@mittenzsside idk i disagree id just get a diff droid phone cause droid running strong and stronger but palm not living up to there potential and hp could drop the ball with them
OMG!!!!!! I had a chance to get it without a data plan but I got the samsung flight II omg i wonder if its been 30 days since I got it i want this phone now!!!!!!!!!!!
@videodude357 tmobile never comes out the update on time. verizon always bring the update on time . thats only bad thing about owning a tmobile android phone is never getting the up date on time. if only tmo could be like verizon?? they could be better but they dont want to better
The phone looks awesome. but it reminds me of my buddy's old LG VUE because of the resistive screen. After foolin' around with the sensitive iPhone screen for a lil while and then touching resistive screens reeeeallly piss me off. of course iphone is 300 and this phone is 180 bucks...but still!
just got this phone it rocks!! dont trust this review too much or anything september and back the latest firmwares fixed most the problems its more responsive i didnt even need to use the stylus lol
@videodude357 lucky i just got the vibrant and its a great phone but i want a keyboard phone,android 2.2. the g2 well be the next nexus one hope tmobile well bring out all of the upgrades not just 3.0 update
Not. This phone does not suck. Mine is fast. I run SPB Mobile Shell on it. I have many applications in it.Most of it was unsigned. Important Thing : My Vivaz is HACKED.
Wow! In America data is overpriced :D Where I live, it's $5/mo for 1GB, 14$/mo for 2GB. Right now there's a special offer (untill 2011-01-31) - $2.5/mo for 7GB...
step 1: Pause Video step 2: hold 0 step 3: while holding zero hit the up arrow key step 4: Play a game of centipede on youtube!! Thumbs up if it worked for you!!
This phone has been out since may in the uk and I used to have one of them... Hands down the worst phone I have ever had. I only had the phone for 1 week and I was sick of it :)
Noah u will be missed on phonedog dude u were the best
Is the touch good on this phone, i be interested the phone. Is it a good buy?
Lol at the "Boop! Boop! Boop!" part! Every video of yours is so funny! You never cease to make me laugh!
should i get the vibrant or possibly wait for the g2 for tmobile.
@LostinDream4ev yes it comes in pink,black,blue and silver:) anything else:)??

@Thetis101 Well this is an older phone but just released in America, but I do agree with you BIG TIME
think you guys can do some previews of the WP7 phones for ATT?
"...With the little *BEEP* cover..." :D I thought he beeped himself until the phone beeped again.
@LostinDream4ev yes it comes in pink,black,blue and silver:)
rubber *beep* cover. hahahahaha. that was hilarious!
sounded like he edited that in the video. but it was the phone.
@Shawshank00 i think the omnia 2 runs better for a resistive touch
Very nice review, i love all of yours.. im a heavy facebook user and social network user, And many of my friends have blackberrys, I checked out the htc evo and a few blackberrys.. what you you suggest noah, because i do alot of social networking and i do use a good amount of data.
noah is hilarious, "boop boop... are you done?"
@ayemayyy Of course. It's an AT&T Phone
Dog Fight with the x10 and Vivaz please. I think that would be interesting to see.
Good review, not so good phone. Looks like the folks at AT&T are at it again. What is their resistance to offer high end phones? Is it their loyalty to Apple or is it contractual? On a high note it is nice to see Sony Ericsson getting back in the game, so to speak.
I really like the design on the phone it looks AWESOME i just don't like how its resistive touch screen..
That looked like a painful UI experience. Also a stylus? in 2010?
They shuda made this phone like the sidekick
@Sleepyyyy190 there's the X10 which is a bit nicer and has android but I don't think it has 720P
where do i have to go to buy headset for this phone? they didnt gave me headset...
@ICYASIAN95 if u haven't heard at&t is doing that too or flipping their 4g switch on either way at&t has a 2 to 3 times larger 3g network.
@pjimmyhat tmobile hspa+ is going to be way faster then att after the g2 comes out
how was the keyboard??
naoh is hilarious, " boop boop.... are you done?"
how is the the touchscreen...plz reply asap!!
Does it take a simcard?
nice review
i just got this phone today.i changed my cell phone carrier from verizon to AT&T because verizon dont have sony ericsson
I need help too!!!! Rumor touch or Sanyo Incognito!
@mittenzsside idk i disagree id just get a diff droid phone cause droid running strong and stronger but palm not living up to there potential and hp could drop the ball with them
OMG!!!!!! I had a chance to get it without a data plan but I got the samsung flight II omg i wonder if its been 30 days since I got it i want this phone now!!!!!!!!!!!
At 00:53, why do I see a Samsung Vibrant (Galaxy S) in the background?
im 14 and im wondering,will this phone suit me?? Please reply...I dont really care about the resistive touch screen :p
got it today....its an ok phone.
''the longer I work with cellphones the more I pretend to know about make-up''
That's one for the highlight reel :P
I thought noah cursed when it beeped! hahahaha
04:24 . Intresting part :) Very much information about "beeps"
i have this phone for like 6 weeks
can you download apps like angry birds and stuff??
@videodude357 tmobile never comes out the update on time. verizon always bring the update on time . thats only bad thing about owning a tmobile android phone is never getting the up date on time. if only tmo could be like verizon?? they could be better but they dont want to better
The phone looks awesome.
but it reminds me of my buddy's old LG VUE because of the resistive screen.
After foolin' around with the sensitive iPhone screen for a lil while and then touching resistive screens reeeeallly piss me off.
of course iphone is 300 and this phone is 180 bucks...but still!
the uk one has a front camera
sony ericsson vivaz u5i operating system is symbian
@Thetis101 thats "power" of symbian -.-
any1 know how to view youtube videos in fullscreen and HD?
@mittenzsside I agree, the Palm Pixi Plus is a better phone.
@TheFedex710 none of these phone. i would go for the sony x10 or capacive
@Nickkozak7 Are you referring to me?
@videodude357 knowing tmobile they never give out all of the update remember the cliq,cliq xt,behold,g1,mytouch, they are all runing 1.5 and 1.6
Vivaz? Wow...so many damn phones out they're running out of names.
just got this phone it rocks!! dont trust this review too much or anything september and back the latest firmwares fixed most the problems its more responsive i didnt even need to use the stylus lol
lol wen it was beeping i thought u were cursing XD
@videodude357 lucky i just got the vibrant and its a great phone but i want a keyboard phone,android 2.2. the g2 well be the next nexus one hope tmobile well bring out all of the upgrades not just 3.0 update
hey if the back is easy to open for Noah, its easy for anyone
@rishirocky111 if your parents don't mind paying for the extra 15 bucks a month and don't need a physical keyboard then it's a good phone
nice.........blue colour.
@DeeJaay101 It's been out for awhile
Why does every phone require a data plan?
two! two! two! Camera Buttons! LOL
Not.
This phone does not suck.
Mine is fast.
I run SPB Mobile Shell on it.
I have many applications in it.Most of it was unsigned.
Important Thing : My Vivaz is HACKED.
it looks like the phone kinda lag on the touchscreen
Dear sony. Put android 2.2 here without any custom UI and make it a capacitive screen. This will sell.
why does it seem this phone is full of bugs?
thumbs up if you will never even think about almost wanting to think about getting this phone
@ICYASIAN95 not as slow as Sprints 3g or T-mobile
Wow! In America data is overpriced :D
Where I live, it's $5/mo for 1GB, 14$/mo for 2GB.
Right now there's a special offer (untill 2011-01-31) - $2.5/mo for 7GB...
@phonedog id just get a diff droid phone
step 1: Pause Video
step 2: hold 0
step 3: while holding zero hit the up arrow key
step 4: Play a game of centipede on youtube!!
Thumbs up if it worked for you!!
@TheTNC24ful can I fire up the engine? lol
The Sony Ericsson Vivaz's resistive touch screen isn't the most easy to use. Internal performance is sluggish, and data service is unreliable.
vivaz like veevaaz
This phone has been out since may in the uk and I used to have one of them... Hands down the worst phone I have ever had. I only had the phone for 1 week and I was sick of it :)
I wouldn't take this phone seriously
well im convinced. im not buying thx
haha even phonedog has trouble pronoucing "Vivaz"
I fire up the willing engine
Responding with a roaarrrrrrrr!!!!!!! lol
im not a fan of the touch screen.
The UI looks rubbish. It's painful to see an old OS on a great looking phone.
But it has a load of features...that are now outdated
Poor phone never stood a chance
sony ericsson Vivaaz, Vivaiz, Vyvaiz Vi V VV V its Vibran............
BOOP!....
heh i thought he said 'rubber f***ing cover' heh
fuzzy phone oO
eyeliner and ciggarets
Buy a microphone or speack louder
@LamboGallardo777 nahhhhh i got one and i think its a decent phone must be your one which is a shitty one
2010 and a stylus ? ; / , sharpen up SE ....
that looks really whacky on the software side..
@kogarasumaruten lol
BOOP
@cometz13 hahahahaha!
2 2 2 buttons LOL
i like the back it looks cool but the rest is shit
att sucks they block android,they have iphone and slow as hell 3g!!!!!!!!!!!
This Phone Sucks!!
I literally threw it into a lake after I got my GSII c:
2 2 2 camera bottons...lol
