The T226 sports what is becoming the Sony Ericsson trademark style: a boxy design. At 3.9 by 1.7 by 0.7 inches and weighing 2.8 ounces, this phone is small and light enough to slip into your pocket with little notice. The light-grayish-blue (the company dubs it Pacific Blue) case with dark blue trim is attractive, and the handset's slightly tapering sides are easy to grip.

There are a lot of features: Music Composing, Audio Recording, Games, even MMS (not common in 2003)... I have used it from 2003 all the way to 2007. 5 years, Never broke! Cons: No Camera at all. The keys a bit small. Audio Recording is choppy and sometimes inaudible. It is already 2010, and the phone looks really old when you compare it to even the cheapest phones on sale nowadays. Somewhat sluggish at times. Summary: Pretty cool phone for users with basic needs like calling, simple gaming and tools, and little texting here and there. Otherwise, not recommended. stars "Fabulous Phone" By KiyanayahPros: Size, Style, Interface, Sound, Icons Cons: Nothing that I can think of Summary: I used this phone for about 1 1/2 years. I LOVED it. I currently have a Nokia, but I really liked my T226 much better. The only reason I'm not using it right now is the fact that I dropped it in a bucket of water.
