  • Excellent sound quality when listening to music with earpieces, Convenient control in closed position, 8 GB internal memory, FM transmitter
  • Unsatisfactory sound quality while talking, Inconvenient to handle and carry in a pocket, The camera is not up to the mark, There is no memory card slot
  • Our first experience with W980 impressed us in an unexpected way maybe because most of the time we used headphones while listening to the music. The next day revealed the naked truth. The Walkman is a high class phone but it somehow does not match up w...

  • Excellent music player and bundled headphones, 8GB internal storage, Secondary display and external music controls, HSDPA
  • Awkward keypad design, Not Sony Ericssons most attractive handset, No 3.5mm headphone port on phone
  • Most of our complaints about the W980 are purely cosmetic. Looks aside, this latest Walkman works well as both a phone and a dedicated music player, with a substantial 8GB of storage being the icing on the cake. ...

  • Light; Internal Memory; HSDPA; FM transmitter; Clever Walkman functions; Other 3.5mm headphones can be used
  • Toy-like feel; Not the best-looking Walkman phone around
  • Move along with this Walkman phone....

  • Abstract:  If you are the type of person who judges a book by its cover, then dont even bother looking at the new Walkman phone. The Sony Ericsson W980 looks like one of those DoCoMo phones you can buy in Japan and feels very cheap to say the least. But if you ...

  • Design, external display and music controls, 8GB internal memory, HSDPA-capable, excellent headphones
  • No memory card slot, mediocre camera
  • The W890i is Sony Ericsson’s most stylish clamshell yet. A great combination of style and features, 8GB of memory and excellent headphones make this one of the best music handsets currently on the market. ...
