SE models that record calls--please help!

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: andrewjnyc

I've been searching high and low and can't find a list of SE phones that have a built-in call recording feature. I'm presently using a T637, which I belive does not offer this functionality, and I'm very eager to upgrade to a phone that has it--I'm a journalist who records a lot of interviews, and right now I'm keeping a Vonage line I hardly ever use just so I can use it to record phone interviews when necessary (I do most of my interviews at work). If I bought a new SE with this feature, it'd pay for itself in a few months if I cancelled Vonage! If anyone can provide me with a list of current SE models that let you record calls (both incoming and outgoing audio), it'd be very much appreciated.

BTW, I attempted to search these forums before asking the question, but the search capabilities seem to be broken at this time.

My K750i can record conversations, that's all I know. I'm not a cell phone geek....yet.

z520 does this as well

I haven't actually tried it, but I'm pretty sure the T610 can record conversations.

S710a will record calls but good luck finding it, it's been discontinued.

get a w800i! Excellent phone and it will record calls too

Does the w900i do it?



Posted by: manchuia

do the SE phones beep when recording? I know the nokias will.

W600i is SUPPOSED to but it doesn't. there is a button to do it, but it is disabled. A call to SE revealed that the firmware has to be upgraded inorder to enable that function, but there is no realase date for it yet. It will record a voice note for you though.

just tried on my k750. It beeps



Posted by: bootsnjeans

The new for more upgrade for the W600 inow allows you to record calls.



Posted by: bbevol

w900 does it. Confirmed.



Posted by: RusWolf

i think most of new phones have that function...
Hell even my almost 2 years old 6230 does it.



Posted by: Carlan600i

i remembered seeing a record option on my w600i..im almost positive it can. but the w600i isnt much of a bussiness phone, more for people tht love adventure and like to mess around and have fun.



Posted by: drdavidge

any idea how to disable the beep on a z520? its legal in my state to have only one party (myself) notified and the beep is unnecessary.

W810i does.

my sony ericsson w300i records calls i haven't noticed any beeps when it records

K790 records... i love the record feature on this phone... u can set your joystick to activate the record and it doesnt make you press record after the app launches.

Just wrote Sony Ericsson on this very thing. Here is their reply:

"All our phones come with a Sound Recorder which is able to record active conversations, as well as used as a general sound recorder. It will record both ends of a conversation.

The basic instructions for recording a call would be similar to the following:

If you are talking to someone on the phone and would like to record the conversation, press the center select key > [RECORD]. The phone begins beeping when recording begins. Press "Save" to end the recording. The recording is stored in [FILE MANAGER], [MY STUFF], or [MY MEDIA] > [SOUNDS]. Note: In some countries or states, it is required by law that you inform the other person before recording the call.

The recording time is limited to the amount of available memory on the phone. There is no preset limit. And, yes, it does include all our current model phones."

Once you're on a call, push the center button. Then push the scroll-up button once. Then push the select button.

I own T637 and it does record voice conversations. One very good suggestion, when trying to record conversation - make sure there is minimal or no ambient noise since phone utilizes its microphone for the recording.
