    The Sony Ericsson C510 seems plastic and not well built. Of course it is more affordable. It’s an excellent camera phone even if when it comes to megaxipel count it’s only 3.2 mp. This camera is equipped with rich features, including new technology namely “Smile shutter” – it sounds to be able to catch your smiling moments.
