I thought Aino and Satio were funny names but all these new ones they sound silly to me. Hmm that's good I guess

Yes I would not have gone as low as buying the Spiro The front of the white version of the Spiro looks like the old w900
Quite similar
Not a bad phone at all. Nice solid build,lovely screen,great sound,snappy performance,great battery life & nice rubbery finish at the back.
Camera is not too bad for fixed focus just for fun snaps. Even lowlight

I have the same speakers!
The best mobile phone brand died with Sony Ericsson's death. Shame on you Sony for killing it! And, of course, for ruining the Xperia brand... Mediar's Site |

Oh really? Logitech ones for £14 reduced they have great sound I must say for their size clarity & bass is spot on
Camera in daylight not so bad at all for no auto focus & flash caught in the heavy rain car crash through bus window outside Cadbury factory

Yes perhaps soon I have gone back to traditional A200 Sony Ericsson Java phones cos I always end up missing them. I dont know why but all these big touch screen phones just bore me now. This is of good quality for £89 and it does all I need. What would be nice in the near future would be a full touch A200 or A300. But all these other Andriod and big touch screen phones from most others the novelty wears off after a while. I am enjoying this phone its great. Though the Spiro looks too basic.

Oh sorry I keep thinking thats what they are silly me. I dont know I think I liked the design its simplicity but at the same time it still has alot. Walkman sound quality cos remembering the sound from the w995 it was solid. I have been using them headphones from that phone. I like its 2.6 inch screen and just the lovely interface. I always end up missing it when I stray to other manufacturer's

I always end up with my "old" kind of phone too, w995. I love the interface and that it is so easy to use Reliable and batterytime that beats the crap out of every touchphone I have owned |

Yes true indeed long live @tranced I have no idea why I thought it was Java Despite minor little things I think A200 mobiles have become as reliable as they once were in the early days but their smartphones not I have now owned the Mini & the X10 & running the latest software I still had nothing but problems EDIT: The Zylo's buttons have nice tactile feedback too. I would go as far as saying it has the most solid smooth slider of all sliders so far

Do you find the sound through both speaker and headset better than on the w995 ?
They should have made it with a 3.5 connection the Spiro has got one and that phone is more simple and cheaper |

Sound through the speaker is clear and fairly loud though not as nice as the w995 stereo speakers. The supplied headphones are average not bad but I use my old w995 headphones. With them the sound is very good but the w995 does have the edge.

Thanx Guess I`II stick to my w995 than. Tried the Zylo the other day in a shop and I found it quite appealing, felt good in my hand and seemed well made. Nice display |
