...card slot that takes a Sony Ericsson M2 memory card. ==…Da Music…== Of course, this phone has an MP3 player and many other gadgets to do with music. Like every Walkman phone, it has a dedicated button to flick to the MP3 player whenever you like. On this phone, it's an orange button on the left-hand slide. Just press that and the music player will just appear from nowhere. There's no limit to how many songs you can add to the playlist unlike some ...

The longest, this phone ever lasted me until dying was 4 days when I had forgotten my charger when I went away. The battery may be thin and small but it sure does keep its charge. ==…All about the menu and phoning…== The menu may look different depending on what network it's on.

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

I've always loved Sony Ericsson (henceforth referred to as SE) phones, as they have great features and are usually pretty reliable. One thing that's often let them down though is that they just ain't that pretty. Well, SE have finally woken up and begun to deal with this problem. The w880i is a lovely looking phone, with its brushed stainless steel silver front (or black if you prefer), and its matt black plastic back (say that ten times fast!) (Oh, ...
...worth looking around to find the best deal for you. Overall I give this phone an 8 out of 10. As a first foray into the world of slim phones I think Sony Ericsson have done pretty well. I can't wait to see what they come up with next. ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

...becoming a long line of Sony Ericsson phones. Mr Sony Ericson the 1st was my W800i and we had a ball together, I pushed his buttons he vibrated in my pocket we got along great, until tragedy (puts hands up starts dancing remembers who sang it and stops) struck and Mr S E went diving in the PIQ’s sink. He kind of teetered on the edge of working; his back light slowly fading to nothing, but then the condensation set in and he was a goner, all I thought ...
...so along came Mr Sony Ericson the 2nd in the name of the W810i practically the same phone with just some updated features…I was truly happy again, we took photographs and made videos together, he vibrated in my pocket, my fingers danced over his little buttons as I kept my nearest and dearest abreast of my life, passed on jokes and occasionally spoke to people…Until…. I fell for another phone….the Sony Ericsson W880i I first saw him on the net, ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

...I decided to get the Sony Ericsson W880i. It is only 9.4mm in thickness so fits easily into my small handbag without taking up much room and only weighs 71grams. It has a stainless steal coating that makes it look very stylish. It comes in two colours black and orange, black at the front and orange on the back, or silver and black, black at the back and silver at the front, this is the one I have. To look at the phone head on you have a screen ...
...This is the second Sony Ericsson phone I have had and they have made huge improvements to this one compared to the last one I had, for one they have got rid of the Joy Stick button which I hated because after while it stopped working. The sound of the walkman is of high quality, I found downloading music to the phone easy, it comes with a USB cable and a CD which you download onto your computer and this is where you can put the music onto your phone. ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

...am not so sure. SONY PHONES I rate Sony Ericsson phones at the top of the pile of the decent makes. They always have excellent build quality and the menus are functional and easy to use. I have progressed through the current range as and when they have come out. So it was with joy that I received one of the new W880i phones W880i FIRST IMPRESSIONS When I go the phone I was well impressed. The one I got was from Vodafone who generally don't go ...
...also have a K800 from Sony and reckon that if you glued together 3, yes 3 W880 phones together you would match the size of the k800. So in the W880 we have a tiny phone. As we all know though, size isn't everything so is the W880i any good? Well build quality wise and on looks, yes it most defiantly is. It looks like someone actually sat down and milled out the front cover by hand, the facia is perfectly formed and the buttons and screen merge in ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

...phone on to get the sony ericsson logo and it popped up with normal mode or flight mode. I clicked on normal mode and I was away listening to music, texting and ringing friends from the all new slim and shiny w880i model handset. I also got brand new headphones and manuals to help me and the software disc and USB lead, charger and I also got a free set of speakers to play my music at home. Performance: I think the w880i has an successful performance ...
...how much you love ringing people. The average standby time for this handset is 425 hours which I think is very suitable for this type of phone. Camera: The phones has a very good camera with its 2 megapixel good for capturing and sharing them special moments. Only thing that I dont like with the camera is there is no zoom so is you standing far away and tring to get a picture it will not be very good. Features: The phone has a wide range of features. ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

...the somewhat brick like early Sony Ericsson phones they have proved far superior to the majority of other brands. There is something about them that is fresh and dynamic; they are a little more cutting edge perhaps without being overcomplicated. This particular model, the w880i is great, with an abundance of features and a nice sleek design it's easy to use and even easier to conceal. I won't bore you to death with the millions of features it has ...
...trademark "candy bar" design which Sony Ericsson seems to be best at. The phone is pretty robust, I tend to stick it in my pocket...bag etc...and have even dropped it a couple of times and it hasn't got a scratch on it and is still in full working order. The only complaint I have heard is that it has small buttons, I cope ok with them but I suppose if you had big hand it might be a problem. The front of the phone is silver (but comes in black to) ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

...help compensate the pathetic camera, Sony give you a good music player. The sound is of high quality. You can listen with your headphones or with the external speaker. The player is nice and easy to get around and you'll have no trouble sorting play lists out and so on. Transferring music is simple, a little slow but simple. Just install the software and away you go. You get a few EQ settings, very important for adjusting to different styles of music ...
...to music, you don't have the keep the player interface on. One thing that did disappoint me was the lack of an FM radio. I like radios on phones. With the phone you get a 1 Gigabyte memory card. Easily enough space for over 100 songs. I'm pretty sure you will be able to find a bigger card if you want to use this as your main mp3 player. I think I probably would if I didn't have an iPod. The card does allow you to save pictures and videos too. But ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

...had a good experience with Sony Ericsson phones (the exception being the p990i) and this one was no different. Let me start by telling you a bit about the phone itself: The w880i is a slim and sleek phone (9.4 mm thin) with a stainless casing; or if you prefer, its also available in black & orange. Features of the Sony Ericsson W880i include: 3G video calling 2 megapixel camera with 2.5x digital zoom Video camera Media player (MP3 / AAC) Sound ...
...a bit smaller than other Sony Erricsons (1.8 inches) but, the slightly smaller screen has advantages in weight and power consumption and is worth comprimising over Also, the keypad may be a bit fiddly for some users - the buttons are a bit small. I read reviews on the w880i before purchasing it and in general - guys found it a little harder to type with - However, I think its fine and don't have a problem using it Overall, the phone is excellent, ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

This is the first Sony Ericsson phone I have owned and being so used to the Nokia layouts, menus and functions I was worried that I will need to spend hours learning the shortcuts, menus, functions and what have you. However, I needn't have worried. The W880i is just as easy to use as the Nokias. The menus are easy to navigate and the functions are pretty much the same as any other phone. So saying that, why is this W880i such a great phone? Well ...
...acts as a portable mp3 player as well. Great for all the music lovers out there. The phone itself has 14MB memory and thrown in is an extra 1GB external memory card. It suggests that with this amount of memory, it can store up to 900 tracks. More than ample enough memory for tunes and other stuff such as pictures and videos of nights out etc. The phone itself is stylish, slim and very light. I put it in my pocket and sometimes forget it’s even there. ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

...my last phone was a Sony Ericsson W550i, the phone served me very well untill the charger/usb/headphone port didn't want to work any more, when it broke I could no longer charge, listen to music or connect it to my PC. So I went and got the W550i, when I opened it i could not beleave how thin it was, and its looks are stunnning, Starting up my phone was easy, I put my old sim into it, and when I turned it on, it asked my to enter the time and date ...
...card to the phone. I phone comes with a 1GB SanDisk M2 memory card, there about the size of a cornflake, the phone can take a maximum of 2GB of memory. It has a 2.0 megapixel camera, which is great for taking snaps out and about, some downsides to the camrea on the phone is that it has no flash and you can only zoom in video mode. The Walkman application on the phone is excellent, it has a layout like an iPod(artists, albums, tracks, playlists ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

...the latest handset from the Sony Ericsson Walkman range. I'll try and not waffle on too much about the exact spec of the phone, you can find that elsewhere. But I'll tell you from a users point of view what is good, and what really isn't. It is very light, very small, and for the first time ever I have a 3G phone that fits in my pocket without ripping the seams! I like the design. Quite simply - its nice! THE MUSIC The upside... My favourite ...
...,and also fantastic on the Sony Ericsson speakers i got with the SE V630i (how fortunate!!). But with pretty much no audible bass - even with the equilizer set to MegaBass - the sound is barely recognisable as a song! Also, this poor excuse for a Walkman phone has no FM radio unlike the rest of the Walkman range. Doesnt bother me personally as I dont like the radio much anyway. But I feel, like many others I'm sure, that radio defiantely belongs ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

...as an upgrade from my Sony Ericsson W810i. The Good Points: - Good network bandwith coverage. - 3G Coverage in selected areas. - Slim and lightweight. - long battery life compared to similar sized 3G phones. - Clear, bright and vibrant screen. - VERY easy to use and understand menu and settings system. - Predictive text feature that not only predicts the word you are typing, but once that word is complete, it will often try and predict the ...
...are what you'd expect from Sony Ericsson - good quality, a good amount of features, and very easy to use. OVERALL VERDICT: A good phone for those interested in a walkman phone and who are not interested in having a good camera and want 3G capabilities - this is the phone for you. However, if you fancy an equally good, easy to use walkman phone with a good camera, that you can change tracks - start and stop tracks, etc in your pocket without removing ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

...didn't think so. So what sony have done is put some sort of intelligent sensor which adjust the right amount of light to the camera to provide a better quality picture. That said pictures taken on a sunny day always look better than in dull days or indoors, but tell me a cameraphone that is like that. Add a whole host of other applications like bluetooth, internet access, T9 Texting, Video and everything else you can expect from a good phone then ...
...with the phone, come on Sony give us a break. So in conclusion this phone has its flaws, but after 4 months of use so do most phones, if everything was perfect them sites like ciao would not exist, so long live the flaws. The phone itself is the porsche of phones, as people ogle it in awe as you slide it out your smallest pocket. Get used to the size of the buttons and you'll fall in love with its great sound, its excellent camera and all its other ...

Review of Sony Ericsson W880i Walkman

Well, what can i say about this stylish phone? Firstly, an overall good fone, reliable, good reception and due to its small sleak design, i have come to find it is also quite a hard wearing phone (as i have dropped mine a few times and it still works perfectly) i am also happy with the "rubber" back on the phone as i feel this helps with the durabilty of the phone, as the phone does look so fragile it suprisingly is not! as people have mentioned ...
...phone, but as i owned a k750 previous to this i cant help but think the camera is at a slight disadvantage to its predecessor. yes, the 2mega pixel camera is good, but without the light/flash it really struggles to take pictures within the slightest bit of darkness. along with this if the phone is not held perfectly still during the picture been taken it will almost certainly obtain a blurred picture, i did not find this as much of a trouble with ...
