Review: Sony Ericsson Vivaz

Menus Calls/Contacts Messaging Social Networking

There are several avenues to approach social networking with the Vivaz. First, it has dedicated Twitter and Facebook applications pre-loaded. AT&T has also stuffed its SocialNet app on the Vivaz.

Twitter users will be happy enough with the on-board Twitter application. It helps manage Twitter conversations in a usable way, though I found it to be a bit sluggish. The same goes for the Facebook application. It offers the most important features - access to Wall, Emails, and Friends - but does so with little pizazz.

AT&T's SocialNet app, which has been appearing on its feature phones of late, bundles Facebook and Twitter status updates into one location. The app can be used to update your own status to one or both networks, but offers little in the way of interactivity.
