Which are the latest Sony Ericsson phones? Well… let me start with the XPERIA X10.
<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->
XPERIA X10 is the first Android made by Sony Ericsson that was originally set to be launch on 18 January and now is pushed back to 19 February. With this phone we can really say that communication truly becomes entertainment. This smartphone is truly humanizing the way that people interact with their cell phones. Its dimensions of 119 x 63 x 13 mm and its weight of 135 grams make this smart phone looking pretty good. The size of the display is 4.0 inches, with scratch resistant surface, timescape/ mediascape UI, Accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate, 480 x 854 pixels and is a TFT capacitive touchscreen with 65 K colors.

The memory of this phone has practically unlimited entries and fields and photo call on its phonebook and practically unlimited call records. The internal memory has 1 GB storage and 256 MB RAM with a micro SD up to 16 GB and a 8 GB card included.

The camera is 8 MP with 3268 x 2448 pixels, LED flash, autofocus and the features are geo-tagging, face and smile detection, image stabilization and touch focus. It also has video camera WVGA at 30 frames per second

Sony Ericsson also releases the new Wireless Stereo Headset with FM Radio MW600 with easy access control, a crystal clear OLED display, easy access controls  and RDS radio station information.

What about connectivity? Well… is as complete as possible. It has quad band, GSM, tri band HSDPA (900, 2100 and 1700 or 1900 MHz), Wi-Fi b/g, Bluetooth 2.1, Remote Play, mini USB and audio jack of 3.5 mm. The battery is a Li- Po 1500 mAh, whose independence has not yet been disclosed.



Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 will be available on white or black, starting with the first half of the year 2010, with an estimated retail price of $ 800. Anyway, it seems to be the most interesting mobile that operates with Android system.

While Samsung was making plans to release the first mobile phone with a 12 MP camera, those from Sony Ericsson, in silence, developed such a product. And they surprised the world when they presented Idou model, the first mobile phone with a 12 MP camera. Unfortunately Idou or Satio as it is also called, is not at the same height in the remaining specifications. The touch screen has a respectable diagonal of 3.5 inches (8.9 centimeters) and 16 M colors but a resolution of only 640 x 320 pixels.

Idou has the dimensions of 111 x 54 x 15 mm, it has an accelerometer, GPS, media player and radio with RDS. Its storage is on Memory Stick Micro memory cards. Connectivity: GSM quad band (850,900, 1800 and 1900 MHz), HSDPA dual band (900 and 2100 MHz), Wi-Fi b/g, Bluetooth 2.0 and USB.



But the camera, besides 12 MP sensor, also has autofocus, xenon flash and LED flash for shooting side at night. It recognizes faces of subjects, it realizes when they smile, and record the date and place at which each picture was made. And in addition there is a secondary VGA camera for video telephony. The operating system chosen by Sony Ericsson is Symbian S60 ed5.

Hardware configuration includes an ARM Cortex A 8 processor at 600 MHz, the PowerVR SGX dedicated graphics chip, 256 MB of RAM, 128 MB flash memory and the cards are really microSDHC up to 32 GB ( 8 GB one is included in the package). The battery is a Li-Po 1000 mAh, enough for 11 hours of talk or 15 days of stand by. Prices starts from $650.



Xperia X2 is another new sony ericsson. Its dimensions are 110 x 54 x 16 mm and the weight reached 155 grams. The LCD display measures 3.2 inches and 800 x 480 pixels with a resistive touch screen of 65 K colors. At connectivity it should be mentioned: GSM quad band (850, 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz), Wi-Fi b / g, Bluetooth 2.1, Micro USB, TV Out and 3.5 mm jack. And the built-in loudspeaker is stereo.

Inside it has a Qualcomm MSM 7200 CPU at 528 MHz, which has 256 MB of RAM available. The internal memory of 110 + 512 MB can be expanded through micro SD cards up to 16 GB. And head over all it is the Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional with modified Xperia interface that is using the endowment accelerometer.



The main camera has an integrated 8 MP sensor, autofocus, 16x digital zoom, LED flash, geo-tagging, image stabilizer, and face recognition. Additionally it can also shoot in 848 x 480 resolution with 30 frames per second. For video telephony it has a 0.3 MP camera.

Sony Ericsson X2 is also a great media player, because knows how to play audio files MP3, WAV, eAAC + and WMA and MP4 video, Xvid, WMV9, H.263 and H.264. It has included Pocket Office, YouTube application and photo editor. It also has a slide out keyboard that helps you even more to control it. The battery Li-Ion 1500 mAh is sufficient for 10 hours of spoken or nearly 27 days of stand by (almost a month).



Another new sony ericsson is the Sony Ericsson Jalou Dolce and Gabbana which is one of a kind phone, made with 24 carat Gold. Its dimensions are 73 x 45 x 18,2 mm and its weight is 84 grams. It has two screens and it’s a limited edition phone. This mobile phone has a 3.15 MP camera with a resolution of 2048 x 1536 pixels. It has MP3and MP4 player and a stereo FM radio as well. HSDPA connection gives to this phone the ability to surf the web with speed of up to 3.6 Mb per second. Another thing that women will love is the 2 inch QVGA display that turns into a mirror only if you press a button. The colors for the Jalou phone are Aquamarine Blue, Deep Amethust, Onyx Black and the limited Edition Dolce and Gabbana has the Rose Color.

It has been over a year since the Sony Ericsson W200i model was launched. If you expect this phone to shake hands with the other great phones than you are crazy. W200i is included in the entry-level class phones.

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

The entry-level or low-range is the group in which it fits any mobile phone whose technical specifications are modest or even very modest. The entry-level phones will be for an audience that does not want from their phone anything but to make calls, send messages or make any other simple action that does not need too much "brain".

This is the case of Sony Ericsson W200i, which although is classified as an entry-level, it is much smarter than other phones in this class, the phone managing to duel with some mid-range class terminals.

That being said, we now get to test on the terminal. Sony Ericsson W200i is a "candybar" which measures 101 x 44 x 18 mm and weighs only 85 grams. This model is not the most compact phone on the market, but it is quite small. The front side is occupied by the screen, the D-pad and by the standard alphanumeric keypad.

W200i's screen has only 1.8 inches, a resolution of 128 x 160 pixels and 65,000 colors. Above the screen, we find the Sony Ericsson logo and the phone speaker. Under the screen, we have the very simple D-pad, composed of joystick, keys corresponding to the submenus Calls and Menu, and under them the keys Return and Cancel (C). When you want to call somebody the Calls and the Menu button change to Call button and the More button for saving contacts, and later, the Menu button becomes the Stop / Reject call button.

Under the D-pad, we find the standard alphanumeric keypad. The buttons are strung on four lines, are convex, and typing a number or a message can be done very easily. Under these keys, we find a Walkman logo. The sides are not loaded with phone control buttons. On the left side, we find a button dedicated to the music player and a microSD card slot. On the right side, we find the volume control buttons and just another Walkman logo. On the bottom side, we find the slot for attaching peripherals, such as headphones, charger and USB cable. The top side presents just the phone's On / Off button and the infrared sensor.

The phone's back side is also poorly. Here we have the VGA camera, and two Sony Ericsson and Walkman logos. Under the phone's back cover, we find the standard Lithium - Ion battery, which in theory, it resists up to 300 hours in standby mode and up to 7 hours in talk time. The SIM card slot is also under the battery.

Although it is an entry-level phone, Sony Ericsson W200i is a Walkman. That means it is a music phone. Normally, such a phone should have a large storage space, but the phone comes with only 27 MB of internal memory. However, for upgrade, the W200i has a microSD card slot, and can extend the memory up to 1 GB, that means it has the same capacity, which many music players still have. The phone's package box comes with a 125 MB microSD card.

The menu is the standard Sony Ericsson menu, with matrix style icons 4 / 3, but this can be changed from the settings in a list style. The phone themes can be changed with the few themes that Sony Ericsson W200i has installed, but there are enough communities on the internet that make themes for these phones.

W200i supports SMS, MMS and even e-mail or instant messaging. SMS and MMS messages are received in a common inbox and e-mails into a separate inbox. The e-mail supports standard protocols IMAP and POP3.

The fact that W200i has e-mail is slightly surprising, because on the connectivity chapter, Sony Ericsson W200i only has GPRS connectivity, and this means a very low speed. It is true that at its "brain" it cannot handle more, but let us say that for quick e-mail checking, W200i can handle it. For surfing the internet, the phone uses the WAP 2.0, xHTML and HTML (NetFront) browsers. It is not recommended, however, such attempts. A man's patience has limits.

We move on and we reach the camera, which has no pretensions of megapixels. All Sony Ericsson W200i can do is to take pictures at VGA resolution of 640 x 480 pixel. You will use the camera in case of "major" emergencies and only when you have a subject in good light and near you, otherwise it is worthless. You can apply effects like black and white or negative to the images. However, W200i's VGA camera can record videos that can be made at a resolution of 176 x 144 pixels or 128 x 96 pixels. Moreover, the phone has the function "night mode" and the effects mentioned above.

As I said earlier, Sony Ericsson W200i is a Walkman. The music player is a Walkman Media Player 1.0 that supports MP3 and AAC. In the package, the phone comes with its own headphones, which play a good quality sound, but not a great one. The speakers are in the same situation, but you cannot ask for more from such a phone. However, the Walkman Media Player has equalizer functions including the famous Mega Bass that all Walkman phones have. The player will automatically sort the songs according to the artist, the album or the genre.

It is clear that this phone will not be liked by a technology passionate, but W200i's buzzing brain will impress you. At how small it is, the phone still remains one of the most intelligent entry-level phones we find on the market. If you are looking for a modest and easy to handle phone, than Sony Ericsson W200i is perfect. It comes in enough colors, so the choice will be more than simple.

However, not many know that Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 is the joint effort of two large mobile developers, including those from Sony Ericsson, and the Taiwanese from HTC. The terminal assets can be enumerated on a long list, but among the most special things we find on this model are the appearance, Windows Mobile, the 3 inch touch screen and a full QWERTY keyboard.

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

Sony Ericsson XPERIA measures 110.5 x 52.6 x 17 mm and weighs 145 g, the model being one of the most compact Pocket PC device currently available on the market. The device's screen has touch technology and measures 3 inches. It has a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels and supports 65,000 colors. Above the screen, we found the speaker, the light sensor and a camera used for video calls with a VGA resolution.

Under the screen is positioned the XPERIA's D-pad, which is something special. Made from eight physical keys, the buttons are triangular shaped and arranged in a certain way that the separating battlements form the X letter. In the middle, we find the OK central button, which has also the role of an optical mouse (optical trackpad) to navigate through the phone's menu.

Sony Ericsson XPERIA's sides are quite loaded. On the right side, we find the double volume control button and the photo / video camera button. The left side presents the miniUSB slot in which you can plug the charger and the data cable, plus a speaker. Also on this side, in the top corner, we find (hidden) the metal stylus. On the top side, we find the ON / OFF button and the slot for the standard 3.5 mm audio jack.  XPERIA X1 is the first terminal from Sony Ericsson, which has a slot of this kind. The bottom side presents only the hand strap socket.

The phone's back side is occupied by the 3.2 MP camera, with a LED flash and several other brand emblems. Under the metal cover, we find a standard Li-Polymer battery 1500 mAh, which in stand-by mode resists between 600 and 800 hours (depending on the network that is used) and between 6 and 10 hours of talk time. The SIM card slot, as well as the microSD card slot can be found under the battery.

Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 is the first terminal of the SE company that runs Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional therefore the terminal will have the dedicated menu of the operating system. It can be accessed from the Start button located in the upper right corner.

The terminal has a Qualcomm MSM 7200 528 MHz processor, 256 MB RAM and 512 MB ROM, plus the 4 GB of internal memory. It is worth mentioning that the display of this phone must be calibrated well from the beginning. It is recommended to use the stylus; if not, you will be surprised to see that the touchscreen will not respond correctly to your commands.

In stand-by mode, the screen displays the Windows Start bar (at the top) and the "Calendar" and "Contacts" submenus can be found at the bottom of the screen. Some of the menus can be accessed through the Start button, found on the upper left corner. The user has available: the Mobile Office suite, Calendar, Contacts, Internet Explorer, Messaging, Phone, Programs, Settings and Help menu. Even if you have the Internet Explorer browser, Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 comes with Opera Mini 9.5 preinstalled. It can be found in the Programs menu, where users also find programs like Windows Media Player classic, MSN Messenger, YouTube, or the GPS. The Office suite is composed from Excel, OneNote, PowerPoint and Word, plus the Java, ZIP and Adobe Reader support.

The music player is among the best players currently available. Unlike other smartphones or PocketPCs, the sound played by the XPERIA is very good. The music player supports MP3 and AAC audio formats and the songs can be sorted by album, artist and genre. Unfortunately, the player does not support the equalizer function, but it has Shuffle and Repeat All or Repeat One. Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 supports only the MP4 and 3GP video formats. However, you can install an application that lets you play DivX and XviD video formats.

If you got tired of the music stored on the internal memory of 4 GB, you can try the FM radio. As the multimedia menu, the radio is in one of the panels from the user interface. Of course, you need to connect the headphones because, as with other phones, they play the role of the antenna. You can scan automatically for a radio station, but you can manually search for radio stations too. In addition, the phone will show on the screen the selected radio station.

By the time when Sony Ericsson XPERIA was just a rumor, it was believed that this model would come equipped with a 5-Megapixel camera. However, the official announcement revealed that the terminal has a camera of just 3.2 Megapixels. Although it has LED flash and autofocus, the image quality captured does not have the best quality. The user interface of the camera is simple and intuitive. However, one thing worth mentioning is the special feature called Touch Focus. This allows the user to change the focal point of the camera by simply moving it on the screen. On the video chapter, Sony Ericsson XPERIA is doing well and not well. It captures videos at a maximum VGA resolution with 30 frames per second. However, this is not impressive when other terminals manage to capture videos at resolutions higher than 120 frames per second. However, XPERIA also remains the first PocketPC with such a video capture capability.

This model has GPRS Class 10 with download speeds ranging between 32 kbps and 48 kbps, EDGE Class 10 with download speeds up to 236.8 kbps, 3G HSDPA (7.2 Mbps), Wi-Fi 802.11 b / g, Bluetooth version 2.0 with A2DP and a miniUSB port. Surfing the Internet is easy, because XPERIA has the Windows browser, Internet Explorer, as well as Opera Mini 9.5 and WAP 2.0 that supports XHTML and HTML. The data transfer is also very easy, and can be done both via Bluetooth and via USB. The USB cable can also play the role of the charger, but leaving aside this aspect, at the moment the cable is connected to the PC you can choose between Active Sync and Disk Drive. The first option requires you to install some drivers from the CD you received in the package. By selecting the "Mass storage device" mode, the computer recognizes the terminal as a data storage device. The ActiveSync from your CD must be installed for data transfers between the PC and the phone. By doing this, you have the ability to store music files, pictures and movies and whatever you need on the phone. The transfer is fast so you will not grow old in front of your PC.

Sony Ericsson XPERIA comes with a built-in GPS receiver, and the information for the aGPS can be downloaded via Wi-Fi or via 2G or 3G connectivity. In addition, the phone has Google Maps pre-installed that does its job very well, and the screen has a very good visibility because it is big enough. However, the model does not come with a preinstalled navigation system so you need to install one separately.

Sony Ericsson XPERIA is and probably will remain, one of the most attractive and equipped smartphone currently available. The phone gets points for its appearance, the good screen, the full QWERTY (and easy to use keyboard) and, especially, the system applied by the X-Panel interface.

The good news is that in the end, when we draw the line, Sony Ericsson XPERIA manages to collect more pluses than minuses.

A neat phone with musical talent: Sony Ericsson W660i - not only it will charm the ladies with its delicate beauty, but they will connect to the pulse of the world and it will maintain the atmosphere.

The back side of the phone is very attractive - half of it is made of soft and thin plastic, covering the battery, while the other half is encrusted with delicate floral (circle) ornaments, having also incorporated the camera and the speaker.

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

In the upper part that covers the battery is a circular portion, provided with holes. Sony Ericsson W660i has a secondary camera, located on the front of the phone above the display. The circles represent a repetitive decorative element; most of the phone control keys have a circular shape. Below the display, there are 6 keys and a 5-way navigation key. All keys are generally small, which is an inconvenience for those who do not have thin fingers. I am sorry for men. On the other hand, the women will find this charming.

The bottom side, the phone has only one fast port connector and the microphone. On the left side of the phone can be easily seen a slot for the microSD memory card. The slot is protected by a plastic cap which is attached to the phone, and because of this, it's harder to lose. On the left side, is also the "Play / Stop" button, which works only if the keypad is not locked. On the other side of the phone we have are buttons for camera control / video control.

The upper right side of the phone has the volume control button, which works even if the keypad is locked. The On-Off button that also changes the ringtones is the only control key available on the top of the phone.

The display occupies almost half of the front side of the phone. In technical terms, it is an active TFT display with 256 K colors with a resolution of 176 x 220 pixels. If the number of colors on the display is not that important, the resolution, which is crucial in general, is insufficient for Sony Ericsson W660i. In fact, the QVGA screen was considered standard for the phones in this class. On the other hand, the display is clearly visible in sunlight, and this is as important as the resolution. It is recommended to use the maximum contrast of the colors during the day, preferably those with black font on the white background. The visibility in the sunlight is usually affected by the shadow effect.

The address book can store up to 1000 contacts, and up to 2500 phone numbers. You can sort contacts by name or surname. However, looking in both fields is impossible, and this is certainly a minus of the phone. For each contact there are many fields - name, surname, mobile number, home number, fax number, service number, email, company, image, and so on. The address book offers a variety of practical functions. You can save all contacts on the memory card, which is an advantage, especially if it is necessary to repair the phone. Contacts can be copied and moved from the phone to the memory cards, and vice versa. Furthermore, to each contact we can attach an image and a different ringtone. You can also use tracks stored on the memory card.

Unlike the Sony Ericsson W610, W660i offers UMTS and video calls. The quality of the earphones included in the package of the phone is surprisingly good. The sound is broad and natural. The calls can be recorded from the menu. Sony Ericsson offers an exceptional quality with the wireless headphones.

Sony Ericsson W660i fits perfectly on daily communication needs, in terms of e-mail and messaging.

Sony Ericsson W660i handles the Java applications well. An application that worked great on our phone is "Handygeocatching" that communicates simultaneously with a GPS module and obtains data through mobile data transfer. Although Bluetooth compatibility with Java applications may seem obvious, there are many models, even the latest, that do not support it. There are two games preinstalled in the phone: "Snowboarding" and "Towerbloxx. Sony Ericsson W660i also has a player that supports MP4 and 3GP formats. Images can be rotated and videos can also be played in the landscape format, and can be extended across all the display.

The data transfers have been improved. You have a standard Internet browser, including the option to resize pages to fit the display. The browser can also work in "landscape" mode, and has an RSS reader. If you need to login to more elaborate websites, it is recommended to use Opera Mini, based on Java. RSS works well and provides updates at regular intervals.

Focused entirely on music, the Walkman does not pay attention to the camera or to the photos. Sony Ericsson W660i does not make an exception. The 2 megapixel camera lacks autofocus, but also the possibility to capture close frames. The LED flash (or any other light source based on xenon) is also missing. The picture quality cannot be called impressive. Even the photos taken in good light conditions are not focused. The light-shadow effect is amplified in a bad way by the high JPEG compression that is used. At the same time, Sony Ericsson W660i's camera deserves admiration for the multitude of options and extra functions - we have the black and white balance (contrast), automatic insertion of data into images, various photo effects, waiting time, and so on. It can also record videos, although the resolution of 176 x 144 pixels is not impressive.

The Walkman symbol on this phone guarantees some common Walkman features: a very good music player, exceptional headphones, a stereo radio with RDS and a larger memory card (512 MB) included in the box. The music player is Walkman version 2.0, same as the Sony Ericsson W850. The songs are sorted according to ID3. Sony Ericsson W660i supports MP3, WMA and AAC. Also offers Disc-to-Phone application (usually implemented in all Walkman models from Sony Ericsson), which allows fast transfers from the CD to your mobile phone. Of course, the player can be minimized; on the display will only appear a little bar with details about the song that currently runs in the background. The volume can be controlled using the related keys, even if the keypad is locked.

The radio application was not modified. It has support for RDS and it can store up to 20 radio channels, which can be accessed quickly. However, there was a small inconvenience - changing the frequency of the radio stations seems to be easier on Nokia models. Sony Ericsson W660i does not have innovations in music, but it performs its duties very well.

This phone is exceptional in terms of issues that we face every day. However, what matters is the personal opinion of each customer.

Sony Ericsson W890i is considered the successor of the model W880i. Sony Ericsson has managed to assemble all the important functions of a modern handset into a slim phone that measures only 104x 46.5x 9.9 mm and weighs only 78 gram. Having these dimensions, we can say that this model is one of the thinnest 3G phones currently available on the market.

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

W890i is available in three versions - Sparkling Silver, Black and Mocha Brown and appeared in stores in early 2008. On the early sales, this model was bought only in two colors: silver and brown. The "black" version was released later, just as in the case of Sony Ericsson W880i.

The phone comes with a package containing: a Li-Pol 950 mAh (BST-33 Li-Pol) battery, the charger, a M2 memory card with a capacity of 2 GB, a pair of stereo headphones, a data cable USB, the CD software and the user's manual.

The display uses TFT technology, it has a diagonal of 2 inches (30 x 40 mm), and can display up to 262 000 colors at a resolution of 240x320 pixels. With these technical specifications the display can accommodate up to eight text lines and three service lines like most of the new phones. Sony Ericsson W890i has a high quality display that works without problems in direct sunlight or outside. In terms of displayed images, we can say that the model w890i is slightly behind Sony Ericsson W880i, but even so, the image offered is very good.

Sony Ericsson W890i has a Li-Pol battery with a capacity of 950 mAh, and according to the data provided by the producer, the battery will have a lifespan of about 9 hours of talk time and 330 hours in standby mode.

W890i has a design similar to W880i, but unlike the W880i, the new W890i is built better than its predecessor is. On the left side of the phone, we find the Walkman button and the Fast Port socket, and on the right side, there are three LEDs, the camera button and the volume control buttons. The 3.2 megapixel camera is located on the back side, and if you open the battery cover you will find the memory card slot.

The keys are slightly larger than the W880i, but even so, the keyboard is quite tiny and piled. If you compare the two models we can say that the keyboard from Sony Ericsson W890i is improved comparing to the one W880i has, and unlike the previous model, it can really be used. The keys are lit white and are well visible at night.

The phone has Bluetooth 2.0 with EDR support, and its speed is around 100 Kb / s and supports all major profiles including A2DP. The application for RSS feeds is the same one we find on Sony Ericsson K660i.

The phone has only 26 MB of internal memory that can be used by the user for media files and applications, but once you get the phone you will get an M2 card with a capacity of 2 GB and if you think you still do not have enough space, W890i can support up to 4 GB.

One of the new things that Sony Ericsson has introduced in the W890i model is the application "Google Maps". Although the phone does not have a built-in GSP receiver, it can monitor the position through the GSM network. The application offers the possibility to have a log, in which you can save destinations and routes traveled, and you can even check how fast you walk with the help of diagrams. We can find similar applications on other Sony Ericsson models, but those have incorporated GPS receivers.

The W890i comes with five pre-installed themes, and three games: Lumines Block, SIMS 2 and Tennis Multiplay. As for the standard applications, we can say that are the same as for any other Sony Ericsson phone, except Music Mate 4 application that can use drums, guitars, etc. Among other functions, we can also mention the organizer, the Flight Mode, the USB mass storage, the Access NetFront Web browser, the RSS feeds, and the PictBridge printing.

Sony Ericsson W890i has a 3.2 megapixel camera without autofocus. The camera interface is the same as in any CyberShot series phone. We can say that we are a little disappointed because although the camera has 3.2 megapixel there is no autofocus function and no LED flash.

The pictures can be taken at the following resolutions:
* QXGA (2048x1536)
* UXGA (1600x1200)
* XGA (1280x960)
* VGA (640x480)

The movie clips can be shot in two resolutions: 320x240 and 176x144, and they are saved as an MP4 format. Their quality is very poor. We can say that they are among the worst clips I have ever seen from Sony Ericsson.

With W890i, Sony Ericsson has made an update for the walkman, from version 2.0 to version 3.0. With the new version, you can make transfers directly from Media Player. The phone will take all files from the memory card and the necessary data will be taken from ID3-tags. The phone supports the following formats: MP3, AAC, AAC +, E-AAC +, WAV, WMA and M4A.

There are small changes between the two Walkman applications in design, and functionality, the new application being easier to use. The phone has TrackID application and FM radio with RDS. Along with the phone, you will get your headset HPM-70 which has a pretty good sound quality.

Sony Ericsson W890i comes with many updates such as a new platform, HSDPA and EDGE connectivity, 3D applications, etc.

It is distinguished by the:

-Solid extra slim construction
-GSM Quad-band
-HSDPA, EDGE, HSCSD, Bluetooth (with A2DP)
-Location, Smart Search, Message Manager
-Media center, Walkman 3.0, SensMe tempo, TrackID
-Access NetFront 3.4 with mouse pointer and page search
-3.2 megapixel Cyber-shot SE v2.0 UI camera
-Quick Photo Browser
-2GB M2 card included
-Improved mechanism of the battery cover

It disappoints us by the:

-Internal memory of only 26 MB
-camera with no autofocus and no flash
-fact that it got no skins for the Walkman Player
