Sony Ericsson Jalou is a beauty in every aspect. From whatever angle you view, you will just love the way Jalou looks. This device is the rare combination of style, substance and communication.

Rating: Claire rated the Sony Ericsson Jalou mobile phone 5 stars  I WANT ONE!! 5 star rating

This phone is excellent, love the features. It is a gorgeous colour. The front screen is very helpful, dont have to open phone to see who's calling to text. The buttons are easy to use. The mirror screen is a great idea. Makes the screen a bit too shiny in certain lighting.
It is very compact and fits perfectly into my pocket.
