Looks like a nice neat small phone but is there a 3.5mm jack?

The fact it has a top, bottom, and middle? 
I will agree that it is not a stellar design and nothing extraordinary, however. |

i don't like the w902 at all. i will tell you what the best phone i ever used are t68i, w900i, k810i, and w960i the best phones ever. i have the g900 now and i can't wait to get rid of it and i am going back to my w960i until the c905 comes out. the best designed phone w960i love it to death |

True... sadly...
No oomph there anymore. Losing touch on the design front spells dark days for  , that being their strongest point that made their offerings stand out from the crowd.

Yes, to a certain extent, SE has lost its charm. But, phones like xperia, p1i, w980 etc look so beautiful and are some serious head turners. They truely stand out in the crowd. |

Dark days ahead, Maybe. Most likely nothing to do with design but more of lack of engineers for the smartphone front. I fear Xperia is mostly done by HTC and not in-house engineering. we'll see though.
's design has lacked lately but not so much ... Z780, W980i W890i and K850i are ALL exceptionally innovative designs and very appealing! Regardless of K850i's performance, truth be told MANY of us purchased it because it looked LOVELY! Also note that the competitors didn't care or have ANY design at all until the past 4yrs and have been pressing the design engineering button on panick and coming up with really sweet designs. But function is what we ALL love of SE ... remember the familiar menu .... we go with what works well and familiar, just like the Apple fans keep buying their PC's.

Right you are. But it is the combination of the two - the excellent UI and design that works magic, at least for me. Regarding the smartphone section of the portfolio, it is important indeed but still a fraction of the overall sales. If is to improve its market position or indeed survive the competition it must, at least stick to the standards of the basics i.e. UI and design - if it starts lacking there, and repeating itself design-wise in W902 and in some other recent models is the first warning sign, then there may well be reasons to worry about what lies ahead.
Cheers!

Se still not taking the need for a 3.5mm jack seriously. The fastport is impractical especially on the side and its big size. I can't believe they don't understand. |
