Now days, there are number of mobile phones that are affordable and at the same time, you do not have to compromise with any of the features.

Most of the budget-friendly phones consist of all those functions that you would want in it.

However, most of the cheap priced phones lack that edge. Many are crippled by keypads that seem that they’re prepared to fall to pieces, even before you take them out of the box. The screens have poor viewing angles that lead to gloomy looking text.

However, with the S312 Sony Ericsson, it is a different case, eager to show that a cheaper price tag does not mean that it will have poor quality or is going to be low on styling.

Positively, the S312 is far more attractive than you would anticipate at the available price. The handset has a conventional candy bar design, but Sony Ericsson has made some additional and nice touches to it, for example, the mirrored covering on the screen and cool looking keypad, where the buttons are set across four horizontal bars.

It feels quite solid while holding it and though the silver finish on the back looks a little bit plastic like, it does not divert too much attention from the general beauty of the phone.
