Sony Ericsson W610i Walkman

So if you've read my review about the unreliable, easily broken W910i, you may be wondering why I went for another W class Sony Ericsson. Well Sony's on the whole seem well made, and I was blaming the the phone style (a slider) for the easy damage. This sort of a decision wasn't made easily for £80, but I swollowed it, through gritted teeth after spending the previous 4 hours going from phone shop to phone trying to pick the best one for me. After twice going into "The Link" and getting told "The only phone that really does all you want is this, a W200i, and look it comes in an elegant pink ... more

Sony Ericsson W610i Design & Feel The Design of the phone is very nice, it is a very pleasing phone to look at and comes in two different colours. It comes in black and orange which looks very nice or you can go for more subtle colour scheme of silver and black. I have the black and orange because in my opinion that is the better looking colour scheme but both versions are attractive. For some reason Sony Ericsson have opted for very small buttons which are at first hard to use. Although the buttons look good they don't offer the best functionality and do take a little while to get used to ... more

I bought the Sony Ericsson W610i for many reasons, and I must say that it fulfilled my expectations on all accounts, and actually surpassed a few. The W610i is basically a phone and an MP3 player merged, with no compromise to either system. Even listening to music through it's tiny speaker, I was surprised at how great the sound was... Gone are the days of tinny ringtones. That is the first thing I love about this phone: No longer having to search ringtone websites that provide ringtones I actually like. I was tired of carrying both my mobile and my normal MP3 player around with me, so the ... more

I had previously owned a Sony Ericsson phone, and hated it. I'm not sure why but I did. When my contract expired, I rang my network and asked what phones were currently available within my budget. I explained that there was No Way that I would Ever have another Sony Ericsson. To cut a long story (and phone call) short...I ended up ordering the Sony Ericsson W610i as it had the better battery life. I figured that as a mobile was originally intended for emergencies and so on, a longer battery life was of greater importance than brand. I have had this phone since April now, and I love it! Really ... more

I have had my sony ericsson w610i mobile phone for about a year now. before this phone i had a w800i and before that a nokia. over the years i have swayed back and forth between nokia and sony ericsson and have come to the conclusion that the sony ericsson interface and style is more to my taste. For starters with the w610i you have to admit it is a pretty aesthetically attractive phone. very slim and with that black and metallic orange colour scheme it is quite eye catching. the contrast of the black front with hints of orange on the buttons and logo with the all orange back cover looks ... more
