Review of Sony Ericsson's W800 Walkman Phone

While it is 99% the same as the Sony Ericsson K750, the 1% that is different with the W800 is all good. The first of the Walkman branded phones, the W800 does just about everything superbly well.

Conclusion
Like the K750 that it shares so much with, the W800 is simply a fantastic phone. It has a great camera and user interface, managed over 10.5 hours of talk time in our test, and has the best music app I have seen in a phone yet - all in a very flashy and good looking package. If you are looking for a mobile phone with both a good camera and good music abilities, it simply doesn't get better than the Sony Ericsson W800 at this time. I give it a "Highly Recommended" rating.

But how long the W800 can hold the top spot remains to be seen with Motorola's ROKR series and Nokia's N91 looming on the horizon.

Highly Recommended
Pros: Great camera, great music player, great battery life, cool looking
Cons: Expensive, stiff keypad
