No bugs encountered so far. I guess it is a safe buy and a reasonable price too. |

I've just got this phone for my girlfriend who loves it!
She's got the pink covers on and a pink theme and couldn't be happier |

bought one(about US$255, almost same as the price of a nokia 6101!) a few hours ago... still testing it... so far so good, no bugs encountered... yet. 
this is my first clamshell phone. definitely smaller than the Z600 and with better features. special mention should go to the birthday reminder function(at long last SE added this feature) and the personalized SMS alert tone. you can now use ringtones/mp3's to alert you if you have incoming SMS.
it's also much easier to take self portraits now coz the external screen also functions as your viewfinder.
doesn't look "girl-ish" to me probably coz i picked the grey/silver & blue style-up covers.
worth every peso i spent on it.

No, so far, any bug encountered, a part some issue sending K700 contacts to Z520 through BT. But it could be a K700 fault or an understandable incompatibility between the two formats...
The same while trying to sync ALL the contacts between the two phones: you need Outlook to do a proper job.
The last disappoint: many games/apps don't suit the smaller screen, and the resizing opt. doesn't do any job for that.

This is a question for someone who has one:
Does it still have the 'profile switch' in the calendar like the T630 did? There is no mention of this in the online manual for the Z520. I really like this feature for turning the ringer off automatically when I am in meetings. |
