Reviews of the Sony Ericsson Equinox TM717 - carbon black (T-Mobile)
-
CNET Review
The Good: The Sony Ericsson Equinox TM717 has a bright display, multimedia features, and decent call quality.
The Bad: The Sony Ericsson Equinox TM717's external display and controls aren't easy to use. We continue to push Sony Ericsson to abandon proprietary ports and memory cards. Speakerphone quality is average.
The Bottom Line: The Sony Ericsson Equinox TM717 has potential, but its multimedia features are undermined by design missteps and a subpar speakerphone.

Review Summary: The Sony Ericsson Equinox is a good choice for T-Mobile subscribers who don't need a QWERTY keyboard. We're getting really tired of Sony's proprietary ports, though.
