Storage

The internal memory of the T630 is limited to a mere 2 MB. Considering the features found on the camera phone, most will find the constant deleting tedious.

Unfortunately, an external memory slot is not included which requires users to fit all their content on the internal memory. The internal memory is shared among all downloads, messages, and entries.

Sony Ericsson Menu

The Sony Ericsson Menu is just an option to go to the Sony Ericsson WAP website. A pretty useless menu, but it'll take users to Sony Ericsson.

Internet Services Menu

The T630 has complete WAP 2.0 support for web browsing and secure transactions. Users can browse the web with the cHTML capable handset. Short for compact HTML, it allows users to browse web pages on devices such as smart phones and PDAs. Because of the limitations in storage on devices, cHTML does not support JPEG images, tables, image maps, multiple fonts and styles of fonts, background colors and images, frames, style sheets and more than two colors, typically black and white.

My Shortcut Menu

Customize shortcuts for easy access. The My Shortcut Menu allows the most commonly used functions to be listed first so they're always within easy reach.

Camera Menu

The T630's built-in camera can capture images up to 640 x 480 px. There are several different modes for taking pictures (e.g., Night Mode). The T630 camera also contains a set of filters: Black and White, Negative, and Sepia. For example, using Night Mode regardless of outside conditions helps to brighten and clarify the pictures.

Picture quality is good - for a camera phone. Ultimately, it is only useful for simple pictures such as profile pictures for the Phonebook. Sony Ericsson has also included a detail mirror on the back for taking self-portraits. But, as I mentioned previously, the detail mirror is not all that useful. While the concept is good, allowing users to take self-portraits, in actuality it is like looking at the back of a spoon but with less distortion.

The average size of a picture is around 15 KB. The phone has 2 MB of memory so around 100 pictures can fit. For whatever reason, however, the pictures taken show up as 75 KB in the T610's memory. So you won't be able to fit that many pictures on the T610 without emptying it out.
