Yeah i was thinking of getting one as an upgrade, but lack of radio, small screen blah blah. I probably just end up keeping my w800i. |

Now I'm really confusing with SE : W880's camera doesn't have autofocus while W610 does!

AutoFocus is a matter of size. This is a stylish phone, as thin as possible and as light as possible. Therefore no AF and no FM radio. If you want to have that, then get the W610. But that's 5mm thicker and 15g "heavier".
For me the weight and the thickness of a phone is most important, I don't care about AF and I never listen to FM radio (reception is too bad in the mountains anyway).
So the W880 is the perfect phone for me. Although I have to check on the screen size with this resolution. |

ALready a review at GSM ARENA:
http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_w880-review-127.php
"The Sony Ericsson W880 is a great addition to the Sony Ericsson lineup. Furthermore it is a really intriguing addition to the group of the slimmest champion mobile phones in the market. Since most of those doesn't feature 3G support, the W880 will most surely find its market niche and would gain strong popularity.
We are impressed with the usability of the device, the nice technical specifications, the great music player and the decent battery life. All in all, a great move from Sony Ericsson that would win them a lot of fans. Well, as it seems, the Sony Ericsson W880 was surely worth the commotion and all that months of waiting."

i am wondering, for the fast port, when using ur handsfree, does the coil point to the bottom of the fone or the top? if it points to the top, theres another failure for me

Beautifully slim and amazingly proportioned. A hundred times better than the dreadful samsung's ultra slim editions. My only problem is the ugly keypad, it really is a letdown for me. |

i can only laugh at this joke from SE. Walkman phone, positioned at music and doesnt have radio! Ridiculously placed fast port and an awful screen. Good going! And on top of that call it W880 when its worse than W850? |

Yeah, no radio is a bummer  Especially for a  phone.
But I think it is a triumph that SE have managed to make such a thin phone with good dimensions which are not too long or wide.

For Sony Ericsson's first thin phone, the spec is not bad at all.
Next  phones in the future which will be thin or thinner may hold more improved features hopefully.
What i would like to see from now is a thin flip phone, thinner than the V3 models 
Come on
