The Sony Ericsson J120i is a cool phone with a very attractive sleek and slim design. This incredible phone has some great features that are truly appealing to anybody who looks at it for the first time. The J120i is absolutely amazing in looks. It has a very simple yet stylish designs.

The J120i weighs only seventy five grams including the fitted battery. The overall size of the casing is 17mm in depth, 99mm in height & 44mm wide which makes it a slim & small mobile handset. The Sony Ericsson J120i comes in a sleek night black coloured casing which provides a sleek look to the design of the handset.

The user keypad, call keys & navigation tool are large in size which makes text input & navigation easy for the user. The J120i comes from the same range as the Sony Ericsson J110i which is another stylish phone with basic but essential features.

Standard battery, Li-Ion
StandBy Time Up to 400 h
Talk Time Up to 9 h

The handset utilizes 900 mAh Li-Pol cell - the BST-37. As the manufacturer claims, it is capable of keeping handset alive for up to 400 hours in stand by and up to 9 hours in talk mode. In conditions of Russian networks the handset lasted for about 4-5 days at about 20 minutes of calls per day. It takes the device a fraction less then 2 hours to charge from empty to full.

RDS support for FM-radio is getting to be par for the course even for such deeply budget solutions, in fact it is Sony Ericsson’s trademark. The other matter is that for the target audience there is probably no need in such technology, it is only an amenity thrown in for good measure. The Radio is capable of working in background mode - in this case the information on selected frequency is displayed on the screen. Up to 20 radio stations can be stored in the memory, auto-tuning is available, or you can track radio stations manually. The radio can be listened in handsfree mode, but a plugged in headset is always a must. Setting it off against the company’s senior models the way radio is implemented is not the most gratifying out there, its sensitivity seems relatively low, unwanted noises interfere on regular basis. But I can’t say this radio module doesn’t work, it just requires better reception conditions. This serves as another proof of its ODM roots
