And it is not only these new advanced headsets, but the company succeeded also thanks to its early models, as Walkman and CyberShot are two of the most known editions. And because there are faithful users of Sony Ericsson phones, let’s see some of the games they have available, for older models and for the new smartphones in town. When considering downloading Sony Ericsson games, you have to keep in mind that compatibility is something that you need to consider. Not all games are available for all Sony phones and that is why you must always specify the phone you have to be able to get only functional games.

Sony Ericsson W880i for instance, is part of the Walkman edition as it has a built-in media player, oriented towards music and also media controls. As for games available for it, there are plenty. Worms 2007 is one of the most well-known games for computers and so and a phone version is also available. You have to aim your canon to enemies, choose the right ammunition and shoot them all. Just watch out not to harm yourself of one of your team. Tropical Madness is one fun game to play. It is a Sonic kind of game, has hidden features and you have to watch out for the obstacles as you reach the next level. Transformers is known as the movie, but mobile games also exist. Moreover, Townsmen 4 allows you to build up your empire. You start from a church and then you can end up with a metropolis. Cubes is like Tetris in one way, but it is more addictive and has some twists to it. You do need some time to get used to it, but in the end, you will have a blast playing it. These games are available for this specific model, but they are also compatible with other Sony Ericsson Walkman phones and others. Don’t forget also about Mario, Need for Speed, Sonic Jump and more. We saw the classics, now let’s see what there is out there for Xperia Play, which has dedicated gaming controls and gives you the real experience as you were playing on a game controller. One great game you must have is Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus. Now it is easier to aim at your enemies and to play the game, thanks to the gaming-oriented experience on your phone. Guerilla Bob is one chaotic experience you must try. You can impress your friends with Bob’s dialogues and the visuals are just perfect for a long day of gaming.

If you are into shooting games, then N.O.V.A 2 gives you top FPS action. The graphics are stunning and the story line of the game is similar to the one on Modern Combat 2. Ultimate Spider-Man Total Mayhem lives up to the movie and the action is just intense. As for Sony Ericsson phones that run on Android, check Android Market for even more games to play.

Sony Ericsson Xperia Play 4G is actually a gaming mobile phone packed with features that will satisfy callers and also users looking to stay connected with their gaming experience on the road as well. For sure, the phone is designed for gamers, but call quality is decent as well, it lacks the HDMI output and data speed is not so impressive. With its 4”, bright and responsive touch screen, Gingerbread operating system and Timescape interface, it offers a wide experience to play your beloved games. The gaming controls are the same as the original Xperia Play, but some of the circular touch controls can be rather unresponsive. The phone is unique and you will not find any of this kind on the market. Another Sony Ericsson smartphone available at AT&T is Sony Ericsson Xperia 10, with a brilliant display, generous set of features and fast internal performance. On the bad side, we have to mention the fact that it runs on Android 1.6, which is an old version of the OS. The 4” display makes the phone rather large, but it is slim and very portable, weighting 4.8 ounces. The rear of the phone is curved, so it matches the natural curve of your hand, making it more comfortable when you hold it. There are three home screens and you can have lots of applications and shortcuts, folders and whatever else you need. If you choose to use the keyboard in landscape mode, the keys are roomy and it offers much space for your typing. The Timescape interface combines alerts and communication widgets in order to always keep you informed.

Moreover, Sony Ericsson Vivaz comes in a sleek design as well and with a lot of features to convince you in buying it. As other Sony Ericsson smartphones, the back is curved, so it feels more comfortable and it weighs only 3.4 ounces, making it quite portable. The touch screen is smaller in this case, has 3.2”, supports 16.7 million colors and has a pixel resolution of 640×320. The colors are bright and graphics sharp, so nothing to complain at this point. But there is still something: the screen is resistive, so in order to make sure the phone gets your command, you have to apply some pressure. You do have a stylus in order to manage things around, but with the joy of navigating using your fingers, I guess there are less people using the included stylus. And believe it or not, the operating system is Symbian and this will not thrill people that much. The home screen has less customization options and you can’t add any widgets of your own on the home screen.

All in all, there is variety to choose from and surely you will find something suited for your needs.

And if we were to take some Sony Ericsson phones, let’s take the ones that were among the best and the ones worth mentioning. Sony Ericsson C902 is part of the CyberShot edition and it brings a 5 megapixels camera with excellent quality, packed with great features and a very appealing design. The phone is quite slim, having just 11 mm at its thickest point and the top of the phone slides upward in order to reveal the camera. The menu system is very easy to use; there is a built-in accelerometer and the integrated music player offers excellent quality likewise. The earphones you get in the box are quite comfortable and they have a bass response. Moving on, Sony Ericsson W902 Walkman offers a great camera, one of the best as long as we are talking about a music phone, a solid and attractive design, and great video performance and easy to use. But there is something missing, something that is unacceptable for a music-oriented phone: a 3.5 mm headphone socket. Here as well is a 5 megapixels camera, with LED flash and up to 8GB of memory you can have on your miscroSD card slot. And now it is time for a smartphone, because these are next generation mobile phones. Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo comes with a gorgeous screen, HDMI output, and amazing camera with 720p video recording capabilities. When you take a look at the phone, you stay amazed, because it looks stylish, it is thin and it boosts a 3.7” capacitive touch screen, with fantastic quality, both images and text look crisp and clear.

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 has a lot to offer, so let’s mention them all shortly: great camera once again, beautiful screen, hardware features, runs on Android OS, great connectivity options, 1GB of memory on-board and integration with online photo albums. The 4” touch screen is impressive, as it offers enough space for your browsing and for taking pictures using the 8.1 megapixels camera. If you get the unlocked version you need to pay a lot, but with a prepaid contract, you can find it at a good deal. Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc is one of the latest releases and it ships with a stunning widescreen, excellent camera quality, 8.1 megapixels camera with innovative sensor and a curved case so it does look even nicer when you pull it out and hold it in your hands. The battery life in this case is poor, but at least you get to benefit of impressive features inside.

Let’s sum up with Sony Ericsson Jalou, with a different design, small size and decent camera plus music player.

One mobile phone with both features is Sony Ericsson W960. It is part of the Walkman series but it brings in discussion a 3.2 megapixels camera and Wi-Fi.

Sony Ericsson W995i features a 8 megapixels camera, 3G, Wi-Fi, 3,5mm headphone jack and also comes with a stylish sliding design. The phone may not look very impressive, but when you read about what it can do, without any words, the phone is totally worth taking in account. Released this year, 2011, Sony Ericsson Xperia Play is the one cell phone that is used for intense gaming. It has some of the capabilities of a Play Station and a sliding game pad you can use to impress your friends and enjoy your favorite games. Xperia Neo provides a very large screen, so you have plenty of room to browse through Web pages and to view the pictures you took.

Hold on to the left side and the plastic cover with your thumb. With a bit of force, pry the front cover from the casing in order to reveal the entire front side of your Sony Ericsson LCD. Now, grasp the right side of the exposed screen and tilt the screen upward until the bottom side of the display is visible. There should be a tiny ribbon cable connecting the phone from the screen’s back side. After you disconnected the ribbon cable, you can now remove the LCD screen from the mobile phone. Get the replacement screen you have bought and reconnect the ribbon cable to it. Place the screen inside the phone. The front cover is up next and afterward, do your best to align the latches on the cover with the notch holes on the casing. Again, press firmly in order to snap everything in place.

Well, not all mobile phones are packed with ringtones, but you can get free ringtones for Sony Ericsson online. You can enter some websites to download the ringtones you wish, or you can create some ringtones of your own. But let’s inspect more these two possibilities and see what you can do to make your mobile phone more special and also make people turn their heads over you when your phone is ringing.

To start with, before you actually download ringtones and so, check your Sony Ericsson phone model and see exactly the amount of memory you have inside and the type of files supported. Some headsets come with MP3 support for ringtones and some with polyphonic only. You can find both of these online, so don’t get worried. It is important to clear out this aspect from the start, so you don’t get the wrong files inside your phone. Moreover, on each website you will be able to find ringtones from different categories, such as pop, rock, house, classical, reggae, funny, cartoon, nature sounds and so on. You can listen to the tracks and then you can decide which one to download. Usually, people load up the full version of a song and crop a certain part of it, so you and the rest of Sony Ericsson users can benefit from the best quality. Most ringtones last for about 20-30 seconds and after the tune is over, f you don’t pick up the phone, it start again from the beginning. But 30 seconds or so is enough for you to hear and answer the phone. As mentioned at the beginning, another way to get free ringtones for Sony Ericsson phones is to make them yourself. As other users can upload tracks on websites and crop them there, so can you. But if you don’t want to go through the trouble, you can get a cropping application for your computer and even for mobile phone and cut the exact part of the tune you want. In this case, the length of the ringtone is established by you directly and you don’t depend on anybody. If you want, you can even have the latest hits that hit the market and impress all your friends. You will find yourself listening to the track rather than answering the phone.

No more embarrassment when your phone rings and you have classic, old tunes. You can personalize your phone, no matter the model, no matter what. As you can see, everything is simple and no hard work is needed. And add the “free” advantage and you will be convinced immediately.

When you open the phone, you will be facing a glossy keypad with large and smooth buttons. When the phone is closed, the Walkman buttons on the outside take control and make you think you are using a Sony MP3 player and not a mobile phone. Although the flip panel is kind of loose, it is one try of the company to keep everything on a slim profile. Overall, the construction of the phone is solid and rugged and it seems to keep up with some accidental drops and bumps.

The ease of use of the Sony Ericsson W350i can’t be put under question, because it is ergonomic, lightweight and has an attractive design thanks to the range of colors. The screen has a pixel resolution of 176×220, it is indeed bright and clear, but rather small. If you prefer to have a lot of room when reading text messages, setting themes and wallpapers to make everything more beautiful, you have to deal with the actual size of the display. And there is another inconvenience regarding the phone: the buttons on the front flip panel allows you to play, pause and skip tracks while you listen to music, but you have to fold it down in order to navigate to other artists or other albums. You can have only MP3 and AAC files, being the ones compatible plus DRM-free iTunes Plus for downloads. Moreover, on the back of the phone you can find the 1.3 megapixels camera, no flash, the FM radio, e-mail, stereo Bluetooth and RSS reader. You also find some pre-loaded games, so when you have nothing to do and want to kill time; you can engage yourself in some classic playing. And if you like to browse the internet, let’s hope you are not used to blazing speed, because this is no 3G phone, but a 2.5G one. In order to speed up things, you can download Opera Mini browser and enjoy a more familiar internet experience. As for the sound quality, because we are talking about a Walkman mobile phone, there is nothing to complain. If you decide on getting a decent pair of headphones, you will have nothing to worry about.

And as most of the tracks are available as MP3, you can easily store your favorite music files inside and enjoy them wherever you are. The menus are simple and use large fonts, so you should have a blast navigating through the headset. Call quality is good, but you will have some slight problems in noisy environments. To sum up, if you take into account the price, ease of use and the decent performance, this Sony Ericsson mobile phone is a worthy one.

Sony Ericsson S500i is in the budget, has great style and it is easy to use. The standard slider features a directional button and menu selection keys. Wherever you go with this phone, you will be noticed and taken seriously, because it is stylish indeed, but it also has a classic and elegant look. And if this impressed you, wait until you hear about the theme that changes according to the daytime or night time theme mode. During the night, you will see a fantasy garden with animated butterflies and in daytime there is a green theme bright and colorful. And putting aside design for now, let’s see what else you can expect from this device. The 2 megapixels camera on-board, Web browsing, Bluetooth, pre-loaded games and music player are just what you need for getting yourself through the day. Because 3G is lacking, perhaps the mobile experience is not such a pleasant experience, but due to the QVGA screen, which is large and bright, you will be able to clearly go through web pages. As for entertaining, there are two great games: Brain Juice and Lumines Block Challenge, work great and exactly what you need during a trip or while you wait for someone. So, if you care about the overall design of how your phone looks and you want some decent features without breaking the bank, then get this phone and you will surely be noticed.

Moreover, let’s focus our attention on the second model, Sony Ericsson TM506, again with a sleek and easy to use design, brilliant display, world 3G support, music player, and camera and assisted GPS. We are talking about a clamshell phone, but the external screen is limited to its functionality and the speakerphone is mediocre as well. These said, the external display is rather small and it does not support caller ID, only showing the battery life, time, signal strength and numeric caller ID. You can’t customize any of the options. But the 2.25” internal display is not disappointing at all, because it is colorful, bright and vibrant. It supports 262.000 colors and it forms part of the long tradition of the company to provide high-quality displays. You can change the brightness level and you can also choose from three easy to use menu interface designs.

To sum up, these were two of the Sony Ericsson green and black phones, offering good functionality and easy to use features. When it comes to colors, you can trust Sony Ericsson to provide what you want.

This is because you have to keep count of the memory inside, but also on the screen size, resolution and the amount of colors supported. Some Sony Ericsson phones support animated themes and some don’t, but this depends on your phone as early mentioned. But you should not worry, because themes are all around the internet, available for free and for any type of phone you have. Even classic themes will provide another look to your phone and if you think about it, any change is welcomed.

Moreover, you can find Sony Ericsson themes categorized and among the possible categories you have: animated, abstract, art, landscape and nature, cartoon, funny, themes with animals, holidays, music and artists and so many more. On each website you are first of all put to choose the model of your phone and after you do that, you can freely choose among the given themes. If you have something particular in mind, let’s say cars, just enter the keyword in the section and the website will provide you with cars themes. In some cases you can even see screenshots of themes, so you can know how these will change the appearance of your phone. Themes don’t only provide a background image, but they also change the icons, the menu and the whole interface. You can choose from simple themes that don’t change much, or the ones that do an overall look change, as you can see in the pictures in this article. If you can’t find exactly what you are looking for, then start making your own themes. It is not hard at all and users do it all the time. Who do you think provides themes on websites? Users just like you and the rest of possessors of mobile phones. In order o create themes, you have to get the pictures you want to have on the background, upload them in the website with themes and select the font color and style you want. If the theme is blue for instance, you can go for the blue font as well, but it depends on how you want to. After the process is finished, you can keep the theme for yourself, or you can share it with the rest of users, even create an account and have albums with themes. The decision is entirely up to you.

These said, you have now the necessary information about Sony Ericsson themes and now you can personalize your phone and make it more special, unique from the rest. If one of your friends has the same model of phone, you can distinguish it better by just looking at the display and thus you will not take it by accident.

The phone is reliable, works good, call quality is solid and music features as well. And if you want to take advantage of your phone for a longer period of time, you could get some back-up accessories, such as a case for Sony Ericsson w760a. This will protect your phone from scratches, everyday damages and will provide an excellent environment for the comfort of your headset.
