^^ Depends on the seller. If he/she provides warranty, then it would be mentioned somewhere on the page.

Yes, I have use this product and am benefited a lot. After using various products i have come to the conclusion that all the products of Sony-erriccson are good at sound quality and battery back-up and here too is the case. I would definitely recommend you to buy this product as it is worth spending money.

This SE LWW is a decent device. Performance would be on par with SE Arc, and with sound quality enhancing features, its a nice deal for music lovers. :)
My only qualms for this is the smaller screen size.. which, to me, hampers usability a bit. And well, its in general SE battery life. I have seen X8 and X10 users complain abt it. I have read abt some SE Neo ppl complain a bit. So, this being similar to X8 in display and battery with a more powerful chipset, i seriously doubt its gonna give any better battery back up. Though official ratings are high, i have serious doubts. I have used X8 and its seriously has horrid battery life with data usage on. Even with custom kernel (Alfs) and rom (iROM based on CM7), it give a life cycle of around 14-18 hours. Which is pretty low for a small screened device in my opinion.

normally all Android phones have a max of 20 hours of battery backup. But that depends on the user.
I'm a really heavy user. Battery hardly lasts for 10 hours, but that's on an unstable ROM.

Yeah i varies from user to user.. thats y.. i am saying by my own exp.. similar activities lasts for around 30hours plus easily on Defy, but maxes out at 16-18hours on an X8. Have tried Desire too, and on same usage that lasted around 26-28hours max. Comparing these devices, all modded, X8's back up for a much smaller screen is really pathetic. :(

A friend of mine grabbed the ericsson live from the local stores.. He paid around 14k for the phone. The phone is having bunch of features... Music is awesome.. The bundled headphones are decent. It wasn't better than my Skullcandy but it was good..

The touch was also good but i felt that screen size is a bit small..
Applications were working pretty well.. no problems in playing Angry Birds.. :wink:

Battery lasted for 1 and a half days.. We listened lodz of music around 50 songs.. snapped around 100 photos.. not much browsing (were looking for apps in the android market for few minutes.).. 1 call and 63 msgs ..

Overall its a nice phone.. if u get it under 14k :oops:

Yeah, it's a bit tiny. I haven't seen it in flesh. What phone do you use? How do you compare the screen size to your phone?
