A chubby handset with a paradoxical mix of great features right alongside irritating ones

Lots of built-in memory ; good desktop software with connection cables ; great camera and gaming ergonomics

No memory expansion slot ; keypad buttons don't feel right ; weeny self portrait mirror

With little in the way of direct competition, save from the other members of the Sony Ericsson Walkman range and the Motorola Rokr (suffering poor sales), the W500i fills a small niche market of music-based handsets distancing themselves from the core ...

It doesn't quite match up to the W800i, but a lower price tag and some excellent features make the W550i another quality Walkman mobile.

Classy, ergonomic design ; excellent build quality ; user-friendly operation ; strong music and gaming feature set ; powerful speakers

Manual swivel ; small recessed keys ; unspectacular photo quality

Does Sony's latest Walkman phone strut or stumble?

Walkman interface; Decent sound; Good battery life

Cumbersome swivel mechanism; Lack of memory card slot; Fat, ugly design

Its awkward design and lack of card slot makes this an impotent music mobile

It has been a while since I wrote my previous review. I have used the Sony Ericsson K750 daily since I got it earlier this year except for two or three weeks when I used the Sony Ericsson K600i. I did not like the K600 very much because the unit I ...

I don't think that the Sony Ericsson W550 or W600 will the next phone for a K750 or W800 owner. It has a couple of new features but the lack of expandable memory and the lower quality camera will be a setback. Not all like the swivel form factor ...

The Sony Ericsson W550i Walkman phone is a tri-band GSM/GPRS phone. For the average user, it's got everything you can ask for in a "frilly" phone.

Good music and FM playback features, dedicated controls, music-only mode, supposedly 30-hour battery life, USB connectivity for drag and drop transfer, great 1.3 megapixel camera

No sound in video recording, driver required for USB detection, no memory card/stick slot, free Ricky Martin promo CD

To start with, its got a Walkman brand music player in it that's not just a basic phone music player, but a complete media player with a detailed interface like the iPods. You can browse for music by artist, track and other information just like you ...

As a result, a user gets a more interesting product for the same money - now it features 256 MB of memory which allows using the device as an MP3 player (about 2-3 hours of good qualitative music fit this size). The player itself was reworked and ...

We should mention, normal disjoinable earphones are included, and you can attach own headphones into a standard connector for them. But the "drops" are enough qualitative, which allows good sound. Also we should point out the presence of a Disc2Phone ...

This 120 grams phone has a lithium polymer battery type, which allows you talk time of 510 minutes and stand by time of 400 hours. It has added features like 262K colour TFT display, fm radio, triband, 256MB inbuilt memory, dictaphone, flight mode, ...
