Advantages: Unbeatable camera, smooth operating system, good range of features Disadvantages: Expensive, niggles stop it from being a world beater
The Sony Ericsson C905 is the latest in the long line of Cybershot phones, fabled for their apparently ability to pack in more technology to their cameras than any other make of phone. When I got hold of one of these in March 2008 it was an absolutely top end phone that you could only get for free on high tariffs, and cost an arm and a leg if you decide to opt for it on Pay As You Go. Six months down the line it has become slightly more affordable, ...

Advantages: Great camera, easy to use Disadvantages: No 3.5mm headphone jack
...I decided to get the Sony Ericsson C905 but this time I had no 14 day returns policy so I had to be sure that it was going to be a good one!
Sony Ericsson are a long established name in making mobile phones. Back in the day when they were separate entities the phones made by these companies were regarded to be very good for the time. More recently they have focused on varying ranges in their mobile phones. The two main types of rages are the 'C' ...

Advantages: Superb camera, wide ralnge of features, good for calls and texting. Disadvantages: Still the age old slide phone issue. Battery life varies with use.
...to return to old faithful Sony Ericsson. You know what are you are getting with Sony and despite being unimpressed by my wife's Sony K850i I fell in love with my C905 from the minute it landed on my doorstep.
This is a phone that goes back to basics. After owning numerous flawed touch screen or semi-touch screen devices it is an absolute joy to get back to some good old fashioned buttons. Not a single touch screen function in sight (unlike the ...

...the C905 after having a Sony Ericsson Xperia. Depending on how well you know your Sony Ericssons, you will know that they are two completely different phones. I found the Xperia cumbersom and didn't meet my needs in terms of imaging. So, I decided to purchase a C905.
The handset itself looks good. There are a lot of phones out there that I think are quite functional, but lack the looks. Whilst it's not the most mind-blowing phone looks-wise, I ...

...as I have always loved Sony phones mainly because the camera was of such good quality. The phone has many features such as a 8mp camera, bluetooth, infa red, a interlink with your computer, a radio, email capability, picture msging, games, video capture etc. It also comes with the option to submit items via youtube or use the gps that is integrated on the phone. Unfortunately however the GPS isn't free and you end up paying around £5 a month for a ...

Advantages: Feature full, well made, simple to use, Great camera Disadvantages: Slightly bulky
The latest in the Sony Ericson Cybershot range, the C905 is the best yet. I have had experience with all previous phones in the range, however this phone is the best of the bunch, and in my opinion the best camera phone on the market today. The phone boasts a range of features including its 8.1mp camera in its sleek and smart casing.
Look and feel
Although this phone is slightly on the large size because of accommodating the large camera lens, it ...

Sony does it again Review ofSony Ericsson C905 Cyber-shotby
stillclueless
Advantages: 8.1 Megapixel camera, wifi, GPS, memory card Disadvantages: a bit bulky, short battery life, prone to finger prints on the screen
Well Sony Ericsson hav done it again. Yet another phone where the main feature is it's photographic capability.
With an 8.1 megapixal camera you are gauranteed to be able to take that perfect snapshot when out and about.
I suppose it's a concept that makes sense. I'm sure most of us take our mobile phones everywhere with us and the majority of us would be lost without it, so why not include a feature that allows you to leave the digital camera ...

sony ericsson have a bit of a reputation these days for making high quality camera phones or walkmans. This is beginning ot change, with the newest range of SE phones being masters of all trades :)
with the c905, its has a crackin 8mp camera with a xenon flash, but more importantly it has a 16million colour screen, so you can actually VIEW the pictures properly on the phone.
*NOTE* when looking for a phone camera, megapixel isnt too important ...

Excellent Phone Review ofSony Ericsson C905 Cyber-shotby
Shakey2503
Advantages: excellent camera and screen quality Disadvantages: Will only last a day or so before needing to be charged if used regularly
...easily the loudest of any sony ericcson phone out so far. Overall, an excellent phone. i think that it is a really nice phone, and although it is slightly thicker than some models, it is still fairly small and lightweight, and i honestly can say that this is my favourite phone out of any that i have seen, and for me, who uses it to take a lot of pictures, it is excellent. ...

Advantages: Excellent phone - ticks all boxes Disadvantages: prone to a wobbly slide
Last year i heard a rumour about the C905 coming out with its 8.1 mp camera...which for me was the selling point. I decided to upgrade early, even though this meant me paying £100 plus VAT (17.5% at the time) i thought it would be well worth it. The phone istelf is amazing, it looks nice, feels nice and the quality of the screen is immaculate. I opted for the black as this is a matt finish, the silver is more shining and very light in colour. The ...

Advantages: Excellent camera - easy to use features Disadvantages: awkward shutter lense
I bought this phone as I wanted a decent digital camera that i can carry around in my pocket as much as a phone. The camera is excellet and takes wonderful quality snaps - just what a doting parent needs! as for the phone features I was surprised to discover that it has wifi so i can surf the net (abit annoying on a small screen) and GPS - both things I dont necessarily need but am having fun with anyway.
The phone has been described as bulky but ...
