Get the most out of your best music and favourite radio channels with Walkman™ player, FM radio and TrackID™ music recognition. The slider mobile phone comes with a complete package of entertainment features and the power to set up playlists to ensure you have the right music no matter the occasion. Share your tunes with friends via the speaker phone function – if you love your music they will too.
Need a change? Tune into the FM radio to listen to the latest news, music, sport commentary and talk shows. Heard something you like? Use TrackID™ to name that tune and artist, and you can even record a sample of a song from the radio to use as your new ringtone.
“The W205 is perfect for those who love portable music but have never had the Walkman™ phone experience.” said Timo Maassmann, Marketing business manager at Sony Ericsson. “The W205 is a stylish slider phone allowing you to enjoy your music wherever you are – whether it’s on the bus, at college or chilling in the park. You can also share more than music with the 1.3 megapixel camera. Capture the action in stills or video and send them to friends via MMS or via Bluetooth™. The multiple phonebook function is an added bonus - share your phone with your family but keep your contacts separate from theirs.”
The W205 Walkman™
Fill it with pop and make it rock with the following features:
Enjoy your music with the Walkman™ experience
FM radio – catch up with the latest news and views
TrackID™ - name that tune at a press of a button
1.3 megapixel camera – capture your favourite moments on film
Bluetooth™ - share your favourite songs, pictures and video clips, or connect to a wireless headset
Multiple phone books – keep your contacts in order if someone needs to borrow your phone
If you want to hear your music even louder then the Sony Ericsson MS410 Snap-on Speaker Stand is the accessory for you. Don’t let its size fool you – the speaker features amazing stereo sound, and is the perfect little companion for the W205. Attending a party?

What a joke of a screen. They could have fit at least 2.2" on there! But oh no, low end phones have to have tiny screens apparently.

Not a bad design but the screen does look tiny. Obviously an entry level Walkman.

What i like is the multi user thing in this phone. Like one person might use it but your numbers will be safe cause they hide for a certain number or something like that. |
