    4 Stars Better as a Walkman than to Talk, Man Diamond review 18/02/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Very good as an mp3 player

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not so good as a mobile phone

    I'm a strange combination of Luddite and skinflint, always reluctant to go for new technology when the old stuff still works fine and is easier to understand and never diving in to buy the latest shiny new gadget just because it is new and shiny and preferring things that do more than one thing, so I don't have to buy more things than absolutely necessary. It is this former that left me without a CD player until the very late 1990s and the latter that caused me to buy a PS2, so I could have a games console and a DVD player in one, rather than buying one of each. The combination is responsible ... more

    5 Stars Black Sleek & Stylish Sony Ericsson Get It Spot On Diamond review Review with images 13/05/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Huge Memory, Stylish, Crystal Clear Speaker System, Great Accessories

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None!

    So the W810i specifications and what it's all about; The screen is totally amazing. The clarity of everything is second to none, and something I have never seen before on a mobile phone. It has a 262.144 colour TFT screen which is 176 x 220 pixels. Exceptional I must say. When playing games, sending texts and watching videos etc, it really is in a class of its own. The memory is also quite exceptional, a huge step up from the S700i that I purchased a little over a year ago. 20MB internal memory comes as standard (depending on what your service provider has thrown onto it, and most of it can be ... more

    5 Stars The W810i Walkman Phone Review with images 27/06/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great phone, looks good, great features.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages n/a

    *** Sony Ericsson W810i Walkman Phone *** After about a year of owning a Sony Ericsson K750i phone I decided it was time for a change and after an evening spent on the net looking up phones I finally decided on the Sony Ericsson W810i Walkman phone in White. My initial reasons being that it was Sony Ericsson and it was a walkman phone so I would be able to store more songs on and use the walkman at work instead of taking my mp3 player in. So I ordered my phone on O2 pay as you go for £149 out of the Littlewoods catalogue. Three long days later my new phone arrived. After inserting the sim and ... more

    4 Stars W810i - Just keeps going... 07/02/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Durable, sleek, easy

    Disadvantages Disadvantages slightly out dated and scratched

    I've had my W810i for over 2 years now and even though I've had upgrades, I've always kept this phone instead (I do have the W850i as my homephone so check out that review!) Though it's looking a little worse for wear, the technology's still up to date and most of it still works fine. I'll go through most of the features but for the full product information - check out the sony ericsson website. Firstly, it's sleek design means that you can put it in your trouser pocket and it doesn't look bizarre, plus it's fairly light compared to others. The screen is large but scratches easily - clarity's ... more

    5 Stars Love it already!!!! 08/05/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Design, Battery Life and Walkman Function

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Camera and MP3 Software

    I got this phone just a few days ago, having upgraded from a K750i. Was tempted by the W800i when that first came out, but really didn't like the colour, which is why I went for the W810i as soon as it was available! Design First of all, the phone looks super-stylish and surprisingly "unisex". The silver navigation button in the centre has replaced the somewhat problematic joystick of the W800i/K750i, whilst still being easy to use. If you've had a W800i/K750i the menu system is a little different, basically the same folders just slightly shuffled/expanded upon. Camera Have listed this as a ... more

    5 Stars The Great W810i 10/06/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great storaage, a plethora of features

    Disadvantages Disadvantages It's qiuite popular so you won't be unique by having it

    This is the first phone that I ever purchased my self and must say that it was worth the 50 pounds that I purchased it for. The W810i is most certainly a phone worth having. The first thing that you notice about this particular phone is the appearance. Whether of not you like the appearance is completely subjective. I personally think that the design was a step from the predecessor (mainly orange; a bit much). I like the fact that the design is a bit daring but it works, it’s completely black except for the buttons that make some of the phones main features stand out. By main features I mean ... more

    5 Stars White Sony Ericsson W810i 25/09/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages build quality, walkman feature, most buttons good for big fingers

    Disadvantages Disadvantages walkman activation button easy to press when you dont want it

    I have had the W810i for a fair while now and so I think I am in a position now to review the phone. Changing phone from a Nokia is always a nightmare for me, you get used to the menu system and so we become lazy and stick with what we know. When I got this phone I felt that all the Nokia phones at the time were boring and I wanted something a little funky. The phone itself looks the part. I have the white version of the W810i and it looks quite smart and sophisticated. The screen displays all the menu items with colourful icons that are easy to navigate too using the 4 directional navigation ... more

    5 Stars Sony Ericsson W810i 19/04/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good battery, camera and walkman

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Froze a couple of times

    The Sony Ericsson w810i is a brilliant little phone! I got the satin black model on an upgrade of my existing contract with T-mobile a while ago now. Its the second sony ericsson that I've had as for years I always stuck with Nokia. The first Sony Ericsson I got was from the 'K' range that they do and it took a lot of getting used to after using Nokia for so long but after getting to grips with how the menus are layed out its really easy. I liked my old sony ericsson and decided to stick with that brand when it came to upgrade time, this handset appealed to me because it has a decent camera on ... more

    4 Stars A good little phone for using every day! Review with images 14/05/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Easy to use, Walkman

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Battery life

    To begin with, in have now had this phone fot about two years. an have not had any problems with it other than losing two of the batter covers on the back of the phone. I know other peope with the phone, and they have had the same problem, but nothing else! other than this it seems to be a very robust little phone. As with just about all Sony Ericsson phones, one of the main features of it is the MP3 walkman facility. Although i very rarely use it as a walkman, it is easy to use, it sounds good enough, so what more can you ask for. although the phones memory is a very poor 20MB, enough for ... more

    4 Stars Simple MP3 phone from Sony Ericsson 13/03/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great battery life, quick, bright torch, Easy to use, Good sound quality, Robust

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Camera not very good, MP3 player button position

    SONY ERICSSON W810i The Sony Ericsson W810i is an early Walkman phone from Sony Ericsson. Mine was originally obtained from a contract a few years back but it's currently worth around £70 when bought new, but much less on eBay. It's a candy bar phone with a camera and the ability of playing MP3s out loud. NAVIGATION Navigation is very zippy and I've not experienced any crashes. Moving from screen to screen and selecting the desired options is very easy using the directional buttons. The Play/Pause button looks like a joystick but luckily it's just a button, which is just as well as later Sony ... more
