Sony Ericsson W800i Walkman > Reviews

Advantages: Great Camera, nice basic MP3 player, decent battery life
Disadvantages: Very glitchy, buttons too small, poor build quality

Let's just put this on the table - this is not the first review of the W800i so is not going to tell you about a hidden feature that no ones discovered But.. it's going to be honest and straight down the line which is what you want to and need to hear before thinking about buying this little peice of apricot pie. I've had my w800i for almost a year and given it a full workout now so I feel like I've bonded and can be objective in my review. Is ... Read review

Advantages: Lots of features and easy to use
Disadvantages: I can't marry it!!

...phones since then but, the Sony Ericsson W800i is my favourite, so far. If you're like me and a texter then this phone is brilliant it has predictive text which brings up a list of words and even puts your most used at the top of that list making texting really quick. You can store around 150(ish) in your inbox/sent boxes and you can chose which you want to delete when the memory is full, if like me you save the ones telling you how fab your are!! ... Read review

Advantages: Listen to music without headphones attatched. Easy to navigate. Easy to text.
Disadvantages: Phone speaker can be quiet. Joystick is easily broken/jammed.

...4 months after owning another Sony Ericsson W800i for about a year. I swapped it for this new one because the screen had began to get dimmer and dimmer on it and also the joy stick would not let me move left at all. I have also found this problem on this new Sony Ericsson after just 4 months. The joystick has started to jam due to leaving it in my pocket for most of the day. The menu system is easy to use providing your joystick works! The menu ... Read review

Advantages: Small, easy to use, light
Disadvantages: Battery can seem short after using other SE phones

I've stuck with Sony Ericsson phones now for a while due to their reliability, good battery life and ease of use and all in all the W800i is no exception. The phone is sleek, good looking, lightweight and compact although the keys are not always as user friendly as I'd like. Features: Ringtones A few polyphonic are included and there is also a sample of real music tunes already installed on the phone. They are not full tracks though. Vibrating ... Read review

Advantages: Battery life, the camera, easy to use
Disadvantages: Sound quality, discontinued phone

Sony Ericsson W800I Yep, it's another phone review. I got given this at work and even though this model is way older than my Samsung Z400, I was just hoping the battery life on this phone is much better than that. As this is a discontinued phone not many places still stock it and the only place that you might find it is Ebay or another auction sites. Overview of the phone Design: A candybar design as they call it in the business but to us ... Read review

Advantages: Great phone, excellent camera, fantastic memory
Disadvantages: Low battery when using mp3 for long periods of time

...what extras you can get. The Sony Ericsson W800i is an excellent phone, its really easy to use and pretty much self explanitory. The best feature for me is the camera it has an excellent quality even when your out in dark places like night clubs and stuff the pictures still come out good, the flash light is extreamly bright which does tend to leave little blobs floating around in your eyes for a minute or so but at least the pictures turn out ...

Advantages: Features by the bucket load
Disadvantages: well the interface... lets just say it ain't good...

...not that expensive. With a sony memory stick adaptor which you can use with most new multimedia laptop all in one card readers, to quickly transfer data, I believe this is quicker than a USB too. Now the cheapest iPod Nano 2 Gb is about £130, you can get this phone free on a twelve month contract and could buy a SanDisk 2Gb card for £60, consider that this phone is not that much bigger than an iPod Nano in length and breadth and is maybe three times ...

Advantages: Standby time excellent, talk time very good, very reliable
Disadvantages: speaker is not good sounding, only 177 x 144pixel Video recording

...as user friendly as the Sony Erickson and the buttons were tiny, also it had a much larger screen! I have had a few other phones while owning the W800i but I always feel the W800i shines through and Ive yet to find one that can beat its all round usefulness. You can zoom and edit pictures, and use them for screensavers, wallpapers etc, and removing the memory card and putting it straight in a laptop with a 4 in 1 memory card reader you can view ...

Advantages: Great looks, even better features
Disadvantages: Please dont steal it!

...its day. Based on the sony k750i this phone boasts some very nice features. Phone technology is just advancing so fast. Who would have thought five years ago that soon our phones would contain a music player, digital camera and be able to access the internet. The world is at your fingertips just through your phone today. I got the sony w800i after my contract ran out with orange. I had been messed around considerably by orange so decided to move ...

Advantages: Durability/Robustness, MP3 player, It's a Sony Ericsson
Disadvantages: Software for transferring music tracks

...been a big fan of Sony Ericsson, so I may be a little biased and I did have a break from them just recently, trying out a Motorola (V600 - see my review) and a Nokia (6230 - I didn't review this because I'm a gentleman and wouldn't want to upset you all with my language) When I saw this phone come on the market I went for it straight away. My chance to get back to SE after the dismal Nokia - it's a bit like comparing a Bi-plane with Concorde. Nokia ... Read review

Advantages: No need to carry around your phone and i-pod, this phone combines both!
Disadvantages: It's orange....

Well, what can i say, I love this phone. I work in a mobile phone shop, so i was excited when this phone was launched last summer as the Walkman branding means that operators cant put their own software on the phone. This means that there aren't any issues with faulty software on this phone. WIll it fit in my handbag? How does it look? The phone is a good size, small enough to stick in your pocket on a night out, so girls, you dont have to take ... Read review
