The Sony Ericsson G502 is one stylish and elegant mobile phone. It is 3G focused therefore its main purpose is for communication, the internet and emailing.

The G502 is not only pretty to look at but it is also superb to hold in the hand with comfort as the size of the handset is 103mm x 46mm x 13.5mm and weighs a slender 83.5g and definitely has the comfort factor.

Sony Ericsson G502 Reviewed by Casper from High Wycombe, UK on Thursday, January 14, 2010

Rating: 2 out of 5.Casper rated the Sony Ericsson G502 mobile phone 2 stars  Okay, but seen better

Phone keeps cutting out when in the middle of a call or reading a text!
After synching with Sat Nav phone has to be turned off as once you go away from the Sat Nav there is no sound on the phone. So you get a call &you can't hear anything.
Email &maps with HSDPA are the only saving grace for this phone


Sony Ericsson G502 Reviewed by smith from london, UK on Thursday, October 30, 2008

Rating: 1 out of 5.smith rated the Sony Ericsson G502 mobile phone 1 stars  Don't buy it 1 star rating

just started using the G502

I have problems with keeping the bluetooth connected with my laptop.

After intermitent periods of time my laptop informs me the bluetooth is disconnected. Using my laptop to find the phone again does not work. When I look at the phone is shows as still connected to my phone.  I choose the phone option to disconnect bluetooth but it can takes 45 minutes to disconnect.  If I lose patience and disconnect the phone battery then I have to reset the phone date and time.
