p1i-doesn't vibrate

3 replies · 20,026 views · Started 09 April 2009

hey guys,
i have this p1i of mine.....
it has been working fine but of late i realised that it has stopped vibrating....it never vibrates and not even on the startup....
i have master reseted and the phone is at the original settings with the vibration mode on in the settings..........
its under warranty but the center is too far to reach
anyone can help on repairing ir without loosing the warranty??

As a refresh to the Sony Ericsson P990i, the P1i sports a more updated and usable design like the Sony Ericsson M600i's and features more memory and a better camera. It also continues to offer touch-screen capabilities, productivity and e-mail tools for the mobile professional, and Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. It's certainly a viable alternative to today's Windows Mobile and Palm smartphones. That said, we're disappointed by the lack of support for U.S. 3G networks, and the smartphone is bit sluggish and kludgey to operate. Plus, at about $450 for an unlocked version, we just want a bit more from the device.

The Sony Ericsson P1i has the familiar design of many of the company's cell phones but most closely resembles the M600i. The candy-bar-shape smartphone is compact and light at 4.1 inches by 2.1 inches by 0.7 inch deep and 4.4 ounces, and sports a traditional but attractive silver-and-black casing. It's certainly a huge improvement over the bulky P990i. With a solid construction, the P1i is comfortable to use as a phone, and it has a nice soft-touch finish on the back to make it easier to grip. It also won't make too much of a tight fit in a pants pocket.
