The SE K790a is by far the best cell phone I've ever owned.

Outstanding LCD (even in direct sunlight)
3.2 MP Camera with REAL Flash
Quick Operation
RSS Reader

Cons:
It isn't quadbnd
I highly recommend this phone to anybody that doesn't need a smartphone. The thing I love most about this phone is that it does a very good job of combining a mobile phone, a digital camera, and a media player into one unit.
awesome all in one phone [Posted on 2008-04-10]
This is the best phone I have ever owned. It does every thing you can listen to music, take quality pictures, video, it syncs up nicely with mac's and can be used as a mass storage device. The phone does it all.
THE GOOD
Syncs with my intel based mac nicely
Has amazing screen ease of use
Takes great pictures for it being a phone
You can create your own ring tones which will save you money every month
THE BAD
The camera feels like a real digi cam which is good the only draw back is their is no force flash only auto and red eye which is anoying in a back lit situation.
The phone could be slimer but it still feels good in the hand and when you way the fact that you don't need your digi cam everywhere you go now it actually saves room.
Overall it is an amazing phone great job sony four and a half stars.
Great Phone, Silly Sliding Camera Cover [Posted on 2008-05-22]
I'm one of those funny people who like candy bar style phones. I don't like slider phones or flip phones - I like my phones to just be, not transform. This is a personal preference, I'm not claiming that one style of phone is better than another.
I used a Sony Ericsson T616 for like... 5 years before the screen finally went kaput and I was forced to upgrade. I wasn't impressed by the flips and sliders that AT&T had (my provider), and I didn't need something as fancy as a smart phone. I just wanted a candy bar phone with the capability to use MP3s as ring tones.
My coworker (all three of us were still using our T616) came in after Christmas with this phone and I was shocked! It was everything I wanted in a phone. It's a liiiiittle bulky, but it does have a very good camera in it. It's very easy to navigate and easy to use, I like the UI. The brushed metal body is just as sturdy as my old T616.
My only small complaint, which doesn't happen all the time, is the door that hides the camera lens gets slid down when it's in a bag or pocket, but it's just as easy to slide it shut. Oh, and another thing - the key command for locking the keys on the T616 was * and the left action button, and its reversed on the K790a.
Good phone, if you like candy bar style phones or loved your old T616, you'll like this phone.

Excellent phone with lots of features. Surprised at how good the radio reception is. Negatives include: Camera cover opens too easy, battery cover does not open easy enough, and photos are just OK. Purchased a hard case custom for this phone and that alleviated incidental opening of the camera cover. Although the camera specs indicate 3.2 megapixels, I was disappointed in the quality of photos. Photos taken from the camera look better on the camera than on a computer; a little noisy/pixelated.
fulfills its design marvelously... [Posted on 2008-06-15]
...I've had this phone for only a short time now, but can say that it lives up to any of it's reviews that I have seen. Sound quality is very good...Ring tone volume is quite adequate (from someone who is extremely hard of hearing)... Fit and feel is solid... screen resolution is fantastic. With help from a friend, customized programing adapted this phone to fulfill all my communication and entertainment needs.
The down side ???? For someone that has had multiple cellphones, operations were intuitive, which is fortunate since instructions and documentation were virtually "non-existant". Also, the Sony Ericsson web site has an extensive help area. Any future revision of the model with the addition of 3G would make the perfect cellphone........
