As with the T610 before it, the T630 supports the J2ME (Java 2 Micro
Edition) platform for downloadable games and applications. Users will be
able to install and remove J2ME compatible games through the web or from
a computer. Currently, hundreds of software applications have been created
under the J2ME platform. Some are freeware while others require a fee. It
is still the most popular platform on the market today.
The T630 also comes with 4 preinstalled games - Deep Abyss, VRally2,
Minigolf, and Five Stones. Deep Abyss is similar to Super Mario Bros. where
you are a diver on a mission to collect crystals in a maze. Five Stones
is a board game, and Minigolf is self explanatory. Try to sink the ball
in the hole by choosing the direction and strength of your swing. You can
play against the computer or a 2nd person in Five Stones or Minigolf. Of
course these games don't have much depth, but they help to kill time well
enough.
The newcomer here is VRally2. Get behind the wheel of super-fast cars,
and complete for the title of becoming the World Champion. Already a favorite
among cell phone users, VRally2 provides hours of action-packed driving
excitement.

Browse pictures on the phone, or listen to sound clips. Sony Ericsson
has also kept its strong "themes" feature. Customize the entire look of
the T630. From desktop pictures, to menu bars and font colors, the changes
are incredible. If you get tired of a look, just create unique personalized
themes in the preinstalled theme editor, or browse for more online and download
it to the phone.
There is also a built in picture editor for the artists. Create or edit
pictures with a variety of brush widths, shapes, and fills. Some features
like emboss and frost bring Photoshop-like functionality for some added
amusement value. Between the editor on the phone and the theme toolkits
on the computer, those who like to create wallpapers and themes will be
satisfied.
The T630 also brings back Music DJ which allows users to overlay multiple
tracks and create a completely original ringtone. It comes pre-installed
with sample tracks and backbeats to get people started. The tool itself
is pretty intuitive, but most users will find that creating the complex,
realistic-sounding ringtones sold commercially are beyond their skill level
or too tedious to make it worthwhile. However, simple tunes can be composed
with relative ease.
