  • Slim and futuristic design; great for 720p HD video recording; 8-megapixel camera.
  • Sluggish performance; virtual keypad too tiny.
  • The Sony Ericsson Vivaz looked really promising and its ­multimedia features are impressive. The phone is great for shooting images and capturing videos, and has a long ­lasting battery. However, it may be sleek on the outside but on the inside it has...

  • Sony Ericsson Vivaz is packed high-end features and a wide-array of application. At RM 1,799, the Vivaz is recommended to those looking for their 1st smartphone, as this device has will cater to your every whim, but the experience isn’t fine tuned. The...

  • There is no doubt that the Sony Ericsson Vivaz offers a lot. It punches well above its weight when it comes to video and photos, offering one of the best camera phones we've seen to date. It does suffer in low light, however, and the LED flash won't help ...

  • The Vivaz is definitely a good choice for those looking for a multimedia-centric mobile device - it displays decent audio playback, takes above-average photos, and has functional video-recording capabilities. At $798, it is a steal, simply because you are...

  • Abstract:  Previously known as the Kurara, the latest Sony Ericsson smartphone has been renamed; say hello to the Vivaz. With Sony Ericsson's penchant for christening their devices odd names (think: Jalou, Idou, Yari and Satio), you would be glad to know the inspira...

  • Appareil photo 8,1 mégapixels, 3G / Wifi, Navigation Internet rapide, Autonomie communication de 13 heures (GSM), Facebook / Twitter, SMS Preview
  • Symbian S60, Ecran tactile un peu difficile, Absence de widgets
  • Il n’est pas dans nos habitudes de sortir la brosse à reluire pour un constructeur, mais nous sommes dans le cas présent bien obligé de reconnaitre que Sony Ericsson a frappé un grand coup. S’il faudra attendre les résultats commerciaux pour juger de l’am...

  • Très fin, bonne prise en main, Bouton physique pour accéder à la vidéo, différencier du déclencheur photo
  • Qualité photo désastreuse, Qualité vidéo identique à la qualité photo, Interface vieillissante, Système d'exploitation relativement limité
  • Téléphone à l'interface vieillissante, le Vivaz misait tout sur la photo et la vidéo HD pour se vendre. Oui, mais voilà, les photos et vidéos sont catastrophiques. Tant pis....
