Kris wrote: "The Sony Ericsson Z520a with Cingular is excellent. So easy to use, lightweight and compact, it is amazingly equipped with many features. I bought one for my wife and I and we love them. The picture button goes off too easily, but other than that this phone is spectacular."
Another Customer wrote: "I have been with cingular for several years now and have been satisfied. It's time for me to renew my service so I upgraded my phones (family plan) as well. I had thought about the razr because it's all the rage, but I have had sony phones for over 3 years and have been satisfied so I stuck with them. I wanted the phone to be a flip phone, clamshell design, to have a camera, to be user friendly, and a good deal. I believe I got all that in the z520a. Also, the fact that you can change the face and back covers is a real treat. My wife got the hot pink and I stayed with the oem dark blue. They're cool little phones with all the bells and whistles and considering I got them free, except for the covers, I think it's a great phone."
