Love this Sony Ericsson W810i phone loads and highly recommend it. Not too fancy although has a lot of good features. Able to download music and listen to the radio (although you have to have earphones to listen to the radio). Buy this phone and you won't be disappointed at all!!!!!

The camera is just good. Walkman is also good. The ear plugs rock. This phone has its different identity. Just buy it if you get it one. A very good walkman phone by sony ericsson.

“The mp3 player application remains resident in memory...”

★★★★★

written by masontony on 07/04/2008

The mp3 player application remains resident in memory after use (even though you cant see it) this has the result of draining the battery quite quickly (5-6 hours). If you turn the phone off and then turn on again the application isn't loaded and the battery lasts for a few days, there is no option to terminate the application short of rebooting the phone.
Also the phone takes about 1 minute to boot up after switch on. This is due to searching the networks and loading the operating system.
I have now upgraded to a K810I and these "undocumented features" have been resolved in this model. Overall a good little phone.

I've never noticed the music player battery life problem with my w810. I rarely turn it off (probably only once a month) and often accidentally switch the music player on, so the music player should constantly be resident in the memory - but my battery still lasts at least 3 days of normal use which I think is particularly impressive since it's nearly 2 years old and still on the original battery.

★★★★☆

written by azzers on 27/03/2008

This a good phone especially considering how long it's been around. It has good sound quality from the in-built speakers as well as through the impressively bassy earphones. A 2 megapixel camera isn't to be sniffed at either. The phone itself has little memory but it comes with a 512mb memory card which can easily and inexpensively be upgraded.

written by SlashXWhole on 26/03/2008

It is brilliant and very stylish, I can't fault the quality, however the phone has a tendency to 'crash' (but that might just be mine). Love this, would definitely recommend people to buy this top quality mobile phone.

★★★★★

written by brains on 23/03/2008

Overall excellent clear quality screen. The Sony Ericsson W810i has a 2mp camera which is very useful when you forget to bring a camera in places where you need it. Has a very good walkman music player which has many settings and is similar to the other walkmans. It comes with a 512mb stick which is very useful as it can store lots of things such as pictures. You can get bigger memory cards but you will need to purchase them. The w810i charges very quickly around an hour and it has a very long battery life. It has many other features such as video editing and picture editing. It also comes with a few games. Overall the w810i Sony Ericsson has many fantastic features and is very good value for money.

“I have owned my w910i for a year and a half and must...”

★★★★★

written by loonymoon76 on 04/03/2008

I have owned my w910i for a year and a half and must say it's the best mobile phone I've so far owned. I have now had three Sony Ericssons, the last being the k700i which I never liked, never found easy to use and got rid of as soon as I could upgrade.

The Sony Ericsson W810i is a good looking, block type walkman phone.
The first thing about it that took some getting used to was that unlike on the earlier S-E phones there is no joystick, rather a button in the centre of a circular joy-pad. However after getting used to this arrangement I found it very easy to use, much better than the joystick as it was impossible to accidentally move the "cursor" whilst pressing the OK button which used to happen on the joystick type.

The keypad is very good, easy to use and texting is very simple as the buttons are small but well defined. However I found the walkman button on the side a bit annoying as it was too easy to press accidentally, setting off the music which is played on the speaker when no headphones are attached- can be embarrassing!

The screen is bright and clear with good resolution. The software on this phone is excellent. I have had absolutely no problems with it what so ever, it never crashes, freezes or otherwise upsets me. It's also easy to navigate and use a VAST improvement on my k700i.

The walkman is very good, the phone comes with a 512mb Memorystick pro duo card which can be swapped for higher capacity. The phone does not have a headphone socket, but the headset does have a socket where a normal 3.5mm headphone jack can be plugged in.

The battery life on this phone is excellent. I have had mine for 18 months, with it rarely being switched off in all this time. In my normal use (only about 30-60 minutes calls a day) it will last for about 3-4 days before needing a charge. Charging is very quick too taking only around an hour to fully charge from about 10%.

When using the walkman functionality, the phone will play constant music for around 4 hours before needing a recharge.

The phone has a useful 2MP camera which is fairly good, but fixed lens with no lens cover. If phone cameras are your thing you might be better with a Sony cybershot phone.

All in all an excellent little phone with very few faults. Recommended!

This the best phone I have ever owned and I only had to pay £55 for it! (It was brand new!) I brought it for the WALKMAN but I didn't think the camera would be so good too. I recommend it highly especially as it is coming down in price.

★★★★★

written by DebSenior on 09/01/2008

Had the Sony Ericsson W810i phone nearly a year now and the battery life is still really good, all the functions work perfectly despite, as I said before, my son launching it around the room! Its even been dropped twice on hard floors and although the casing is marked a little it seems this is a tough little phone!!

Fab mobile and my favourite Sony Ericsson yet, would recommend this phone to everyone! My daughter bought me this phone for Christmas and I love it. It's a Fab easy to use phone with some great features. The camera is excellent and the battery life is too. It's a little yet robust phone which fits easily into my handbag.
